Green Heron Growers

About this farm

Green Heron Growers has been a certified organic farm since 2007 for Shiitake mushrooms, veggies and herbs. In 2009 we added chicken for meat production and 100% grass fed Devon beef. We are a small operation which we run ourselves with the help of a volunteer on occasion. NOFA-LLC certifies our farm organic. We raise our meat birds in moveable chicken tractors, which get moved twice a day to provide them with fresh grass and bugs along with certified organic grains. Our Devon beef are raised on certified organic pastures, but are not considered organic because we purchase them as yearlings. With the purchase of our breeding herd in 2012, we hope to be able to offer certified organic beef soon. We harvest our beef animals from July to December and offer quarter, half and whole animals along with 50 pound mixed boxes plus we have a continual supply of beef cuts available in our Farm Store through out the year. Most of our sales are done at Farmers markets in Buffalo and Fredonia and from our Farm Store; we offer a self service option if we are not at home. We currently offer beef and chicken on a year round basis and Shiitake mushrooms, veggies and selected greens starting in June of each year. Our Shiitake mushrooms are log grown and are cultivated in our hemlock grove. We have over 2000 logs in production. It's quite a science project, which causes our supply to fluctuate according to the weather and our soaking schedule. Please refer to our web site for current availability and pricing. We would love to be your supplier of clean, local, flavorful and nourishing healthy food for your dining pleasure.
