Diversity, Sales and Expanding Markets at Long Stone Farm

Join Future Harvest and Casey & Justin Wisch of Long Stone Farm in Lovettsville, VA where this family farm produces pasture-raised beef, pork, chicken and eggs sold through shares/subscriptions, bulk buys, a seasonal retail store and wholesale to regional grocers. They also produce lamb and charcuterie. Learn what systems - on farm and online - work best for their sales and customers. Casey will also discuss their grazing practices and commitment to farming harmoniously with the surrounding ecosystems using practices that provide habitat and forage for pollinators and wildlife. Participants will tour the farm, see areas of the pasture active with animals as well as fields at rest, and if there is interest, learn more about their red angus genetics. Additionally, the Wischs can talk about their newest business- Blue Wall Cider and Wine. Tour the farm & store and hear more about the newly opened tasting room in Peonian Springs. Meet at the farm store at 38212 Long Ln, Lovettsville, VA 20180.
