Episode 147: Will Harris of White Oak Pastures - Bluffton, GA (Part 2). Radically Traditional Farming. Humane Animal Husbandry. Land Regeneration Management. Revitalizing Rural Communities.

Our Tradition White Oak Pastures is Radically Traditional Farming. Every day, we butcher meat from animals raised in a regenerative manner using humane animal management practices. This is no easy task, but it is our passion. To operate our vertically integrated, zero-waste model, it takes 155+ caring people working together to accomplish a common goal: taking care of our land and our livestock Our Transition Starting in 1995, we transitioned away from industrial agriculture techniques and began operating our farm as a living ecosystem. We now raise 10 species of humanely treated animals living in symbiotic relationships with each other. Our lands are holistically managed to become increasingly a living organic medium that is teeming with life. Our Commitment White Oak Pastures is a Zero-Waste farm. We sell the meats and poultry we butcher on our farm to passionate consumers who care about the animals, land and the community. The hides from the cattle we slaughter are dried for pet chew rawhides or tanned and crafted into leather goods. The fat from our cattle is rendered down to create some of the purest tallow products available. The inedible viscera is composted to later be spread on our farm as rich organic matter to fertilize our soil.   Hosted By: Deborah Michas (IG: @deborahmichas) & Justin Ryan Bizzarro (IG: @justinbizzarro).
