Tim and Kirsten Livingstone's experiences and philosophies as organic farmers at @strawberryhillfarm4060 can we summed up very simply: we just want to grow food.

They emphasize their commitment to growing good, nutritious food while navigating challenges such as price concerns and the impact of carbon taxes on small farms. Additionally, they discuss the importance of diversity in farming to attract loyal customers and maximize sales. Our interview delves into their utilization of various animals for purposes beyond meat and by products, highlighting the multifaceted roles of cattle, laying hens, meat birds, and pigs in enhancing soil fertility and managing pests. Our discussion extends to the till versus no-till debate, where they advocate for a balanced approach that promotes soil health without over-tilling or relying on harmful chemicals. Despite recognizing the benefits of permaculture practices like no till, they acknowledge the complexities of scaling up such methods for large-scale vegetable production. Through their insights and experiences, Tim and Kirsten offer valuable perspectives on sustainable farming practices and the ongoing pursuit of efficiency and environmental stewardship in agriculture.

Thanks to our friends at Loop we're able to save a BUNCH of money on feed for the animals by taking old and unwanted food from the grocery store.

Anything that can't or wont be eaten by the animals goes into our compost pile to feed our garden the next year!
