“Missouri's only goose farm!”
Sassafras Valley Farm Embden geese are raised from hatching to maturity on free range and natural pasture on our farm in the valley of the Gasconade River. In many cases, the phrase "free range" implies a combination of limited access to natural forage coupled with a significant amount of supplemental food from other sources. However, at Sassafras Valley Farm we raise our geese on free range and natural pasture in the same traditional way that domesticated waterfowl have been raised since their original descent from their ancestors several thousand years BC. At Sassafras Valley Farm, our philosophy is to minimize reliance on supplemental outside food sources through a combination of “Low Impact Sustainable Agriculture” (LISA) practices and scientific natural pasture planting and rotation processes. Sassafras Valley Farm geese are raised at a population density of less than 36 per acre in a chemical free, pesticide free and hormone free environment. Our fields are carefully planted in forage that reflects their foods of origin and the local microclimate. Sassafras Valley Farm geese thrive on a diet of pure artesian well water, natural grasses, clover, trefoil, dandelion, and crabgrass. To add variety and nutrition, we also supply them with our own seasonal vegetables, fruits and grains. Every step is taken to provide a steady diet of seasonal, all natural, and balanced nutrition.
