MADISON-Come out and learn from Keith Southard who is, with the help of his family, using sustainable and humane methods while regenerating the land on November 24 from 1PM until 5Pm in Madison, Alabama.
Southard Farms produces pastured pork, turkey, chicken, and eggs outdoors on a rotational grazing system through pasture and wood lots.
On this tour, you’ll see hogs thriving in old-growth forests, silos full of ingredients for homemade livestock feed, and get to connect with your fellow producers (over a home-cooked meal!) who want to do the same.
Farm Bio: Welcome to Southard Farms in Madison, Alabama. We are producing pastured pork, chicken, and eggs outdoors on a rotational grazing system through pasture and wood lots. Using sustainable and humane methods while regenerating the land is our goal. Our hogs are a closed herd inlcuding a farrow to finish operation. Our laying hens are raised from day old chicks and are completely outside rotated across alfalfa fields once they start laying eggs. Our broiler chickens are raised from day old chicks, moved to pasture at three weeks old and rotated daily across fresh pasture.
