Embracing the Field to Table Lifestyle: A Guide to Sustainable Sourcing, Wild Game, and Homegrown Provisions
The philosophy of “field to table” revolves around intentionally bringing food into our homes, ideally from our own land or trusted local sources. This approach is designed to inspire homemakers, offering practical ideas for stocking a well-provisioned pantry, whether your ingredients are harvested directly from your property or carefully selected from a local grocery store.
Our passion lies in sharing innovative ways to leverage the bounty of the outdoors to nourish your family with the highest quality food. This could mean sourcing premium meats from trusted local farmers, or quite literally, utilizing the fresh, natural foods found right outside your doorstep. The essence of this lifestyle is a deeper connection to your food source and a commitment to wholesome, nutrient-dense meals.
For us, the field-to-table journey specifically involves utilizing wild game, honey harvested from our bees, homegrown chickens, and grass-fed beef that is raised and processed right here on our farm. Beyond meat and honey, essential homemaking tasks at our farmhouse include cheesemaking and the creation of various cultured milk products, all stemming from the generous abundance of raw milk provided by our animals. This holistic approach ensures minimal waste and maximum utilization of our farm’s resources.
