We personally know the husband and wife team that source and roast the coffee and love supporting them. Here is the short blurb from the package label:  We started living a rough lifestyle; parties, dysfunction, and addiction for 15 years.  Before meeting, we ended our selfish lifestyles and gave our hearts to Jesus.  Years later we met, married, and found passion working together discipling others with similar backgrounds.  We love broken people, coffee, and Jesus.

Dennis, who grew up Amish Mennonite, has a close relationship to the Amish in PA.  In fact, the 2 Amish farms that we get the majority of our PA products from were friends and neighbors when Dennis was growing up.  We have a long standing relationship with these farmers and visit them, when we can, while in PA.  They are both big supporters of the Weston A. Price Foundation, www.westonaprice.org, and therefore try to produce the most nutrient dense foods, on 100% grass.  We are very pleased to be able to support them.  When you buy our cheese, butter, beets and a few other products, you are supporting them as well.

In 2004 we embarked on a new direction in our lives.  We quit some less than healthy habits and began the journey of searching out and eating traditional foods.  One of the additions to our diet was sauerkraut.  We bought it through a local farmer and began eating a bite or two every day.  Why? Because we learned about the incredible health benefits of sauerkraut. Eating lacto-fermented foods every day strengthens the immune system and improves digestion.  Within a few weeks, we realized that kraut had become a part of our every day life. Eventually, we decided to try our hand at making our own kraut the old fashioned way.

We bought a ceramic crock, cabbage, and sea salt and we were off and running (the Beagles are an optional part of the process - they just love the kraut!)  And what we discovered was that we were really good at it!  Soon, our farmer asked to buy our kraut to sell to his customers so we started making bigger batches.  Next we experimented with different flavors.   Eventually, we moved into a commercial kitchen and the Beagles stayed home.   But our roots in small homemade batches still continue to inspire us to make the tastiest and healthiest kraut possible.

In 2009, we started to raise chickens for our own nutrient-dense foods. We met Dennis, and he encouraged us to sell our chickens and eggs as well as mentored us on pasture-raised poultry. This lead to our partnership with him to raise eggs, chickens, and turkeys when he was expanding his family and his dairy operation. We started with 300-400 chickens per year for meat and approximately 40-50 egg layers. At present, we are raising 700 chickens every Spring and every Fall as well as 50 turkeys each Fall, and  250 egg layers per year. Over the years, we have continually tried to improve our products by better land management, better feeds as they have come available, and improved packaging. We now sell NGMO chickens, turkeys, eggs, and  broth. Our newest product is soy-free eggs. Shrink wrap is used on most of our chicken products to preserve freshness.

Our mission is to provide you with the best nutrient-dense foods we can produce in accordance with the Weston A. Price diet guidelines, being as cost effective as possible.   

We welcome your comments. 

We are a family owned and operated farm producing nutrient dense foods the old fashioned way with a modern twist. Our foods have no chemicals of any kind including no hormones or anti-life (biotics). We go way beyond the federal governments organic standards. We offer Non-GMO eggs/chicken, 100% grass fed beef, forest fed pork (Joel Salatin style), raw dairy products (milk, yogurt, kefir, cottage cheese, etc.). We also offer educational seminars at the farm or at your location and farm consulting to help you get started farming. We love visitors; contact us and we will set an appointment to give you a farm tour.

All of our pizzas are hand kneaded, hand tossed and cooked in our wood fired oven. We source a premium organic, non-gmo flour from Central Milling. The fresh mozzarella we source is a conventional product. Our vegetable and meat toppings are sourced as locally and organically as possible. We make our dough the traditional neapolitan way, always pre-fermented for a light and fragrant finished product.

Specializing in wholesome teas, sweets and skin care.

Hello! 

I was a firefighter and my wife was an RN and despite busy, unpredictable lives and schedules, we still tried to
maintain a healthy diet and lifestyle. Because we were so busy at work we either rarely had time to eat or when we did, that meal would get interrupted. The hardest thing was that we couldn't find a high quality, healthy, portable snack option that actually tasted great so we set out to change that and Rugged Meats was born! Our meat snack products are not only incredibly healthy but also taste amazing! 

We are farm owners David and Sheri, and we have been growing vegetables
naturally since 2017 in Suwannee County. Prior to this, we grew palm
trees, plants and vegetables with our family in the West Palm Beach area
for over 40 years. Our goal is to promote sustainable agriculture and
healthy eating alternatives. Our vegetables are grown in rich composted
soil, and never treated with any chemicals or pesticides.

Sweet River Farms is located along side of the beautiful Suwannee River
in Live Oak, FL. We naturally grow over 40 vegetables and a small
variety of fruits. We sell to local customers, online markets and
farmers markets in the central and north Florida areas.

We now have a new farm partner in the Tallahassee area. They do 100% grass-fed beef. Like us this farm focuses on healing the land with regenerative practices, in the vein of Joel Salatin, using rotational grazing in a Silvopasture system. Silvopasture is the growing of trees widely spaced throughout a grazing pasture, which creates shade for cattle and a more diverse ecosystem of forage-types, birds and wild-life. Rotational grazing is the practice of moving cattle daily to fresh pasture, which provides a rest for grass-plant regrowth, spreads out fertility from manure and urine, and minimizes any cattle health issues by moving them off of yesterdays bathroom area, and onto today's salad-bar. 

In fall of 2017 we started purchasing finished steak-quality cows from them and are having them processed at our regular butcher. So we will be selling their ground beef, steaks, and beef-organs in our regular sizing and regular plastic vacuum sealed packaging

Our own herd at Full Circle Farm is focused primarily on Dairy production, with only a few beef animals which are not enough for continuous supply of beef. That is why we seek out other top quality 100% grass-fed beef suppliers for your dinner table. This also provides you with an opportunity to get food from a different soil with a different soil nutrient profile. We believe it is good to eat foods from many different farms and locations, and to partner with other farms in our journey to heal the land.
