Hickory Springs Farm

About this farm

Hickory Springs Farm is nestled in a beautiful picturesque valley with springs flowing from the hillsides, many coming together to help form Seymour creek. We have been MOSA certified organic since 1999 for dairy, we started the beef soon after. We also have brown eggs, and broilers. We like to hatch our own chicks for our laying chickens so there are occasionally some very tasty five month old roosters to cull. Our beef is USDA inspected The closest butcher is an hour and half drive, Lederburs in Winona, MN. the beef is cryovac packaged. The organic pasture raised broilers are also USDA inspected and cryovac packaged at Decorah, Iowa. We practice rotational grazing, though not intensive. We don't have to chase our animals—for the most part they follow us everywhere they want us to put them. The animals are beautiful to watch and it's so relaxing to take a walk around the pastures to enjoy them. Even though initially they come running and set up such a chorus of bawling that you can't hear, they calm down to eating soon. We also have seasonally asparagus, rhubarb, ramps (wild leeks), and watercress lot'sa springs. Come for a visit, bring your tents, etc. and camp in our woods. Several weekends are open. Gary and Darline & children.
