Mountain Valley FarmsShopping Located in Ellijay Mountain Valley Farms is more than just a place to buy products. We take great pride in the way that we raise our animals - No Hormones, No Antibiotics, No Steroids, No Pesticides, No Chemical Fertilizers. They are Raised on Pasture and in the woods in a Stress-Free Environment & Handled Humanely Throughout All Life Stages. Our cattle are grass-fed and grass-finished. Our pigs are a Heritage Berkshire Hamp/York Cross. We process only a small number of animals - No Assembly Lines. It takes longer to Pasture Raise an animal. Industrial farms usually raise their calves until they are 5-6 months old and then send them to a feedlot to be fed corn and fattened - to be processed when they are 12-15 months old. Raising our grass-fed cows takes 24 to 30 months. Please come and join us. We have lots more information here at the store as well as unique opportunities to buy other local products. |
