Developing Outdoor Pig Genetics, Regenerating Grass Through Nitrogen Cycling, & Natural Parasite Control (Live Farm Tour) - Rehoboth Farms | #108
About this episode
The episode features a live farm tour at Rehoboth Farms, discussing outdoor pig genetics, regenerative practices, and the journey of the farm's founders.
About Rehoboth & Josh & Jessica: This was a really fun tour. The farm has an interesting backstory. It was initially just a backyard chicken hobbyist farm, and then after feeding themselves and friends, they saw the health impact and the localized food impact - then began trading meat for land access. Josh spent years during 2015-18 waiting for the right property top open up, with multiple failed attempts, before securing the current farm in 2018. They launched full-time in 2019, saw rapid growth during 2020 with that demand spike, and then developed the farm into what it is today, a regenerative grazing operation and direct-to-consumer product platform. Neither Joss or Jessica grew up farming, but health concerns, lack of localized food option and expense of quality food triggered their shift to farming. They have a faith-driven vision for the farm, and “Rehoboth” means “God made room”. Jessica leads customer engagement, and Josh leads the systems and operations on the farm.
