Protocols

Thanks to your support, The Endless Knot Community Farm is a GMO free zone. We feed our animals the finest Non-GMO feeds and plant only Non-GMO plants in our pasture. We want to avoid any unintended consequences of genetic modification that could effect the long term health and well-being of our family and farm partners (customers).

100% of the diet of our grassfed animals consists of freshly grazed pasture and stored grasses (hay or grass silage.) Free-choice mineral supplementation may also be given as needed.

The Endless Knot Community Farm in partnership with a group of remarkable local Regenerative Farms is able to offer a broader selection of products in EKC Farm Store.  Each farm that partners with the EKC farm adheres to the same standards and protocols.   

Does not contain cereal grains or soy in feed ration or bedding material. Feed ration is formulated following Dr Gundry’s “yes” list.

Hormones or steroids are never administered to animals sold by EKC Farm. (The FDA does not allow the use hormones or antibiotics in the production of pork or poutlry.)

* Our natural production practices eliminates the need for sub therapeutic (daily fed low level dose) medications that are commonly used in confinement production systems. However, in certain cases to prevent animals from death or suffering we do allow for limited use of therapeutic (spot treatment) medication. In such cases the prescribed withdrawal period is doubled before animals are ever harvested. We feel that this exception is only practical to ensure wise stewardship practices and ethical treatment of our livestock.
