Fluit Family Farms is a small family farm located in the beautiful Wallowa Mountain Valley in Northeast Oregon. We irrigate in the dry season from a small creek flowing from the mountains. We have been doing soil test annually and add natural mined minerals accordingly. We have never used herbicides or pesticides on our farm. We are in the process of being organic certified. We have been making compost from our livestock's winter bedding pack which we add to the fields for fertilizer. It sure attracts a lot of earth worms!
We raise Natural Grass-fed beef, free range eggs, fresh raw milk from grass-fed Jersey cows, and pork. Our livestock do not receive any hormones or antibiotics. Our cows get a fresh salad bar of grass every day in the summer. They also get free choice Organic Thorvin Kelp and Redmond natural salt for additional minerals. Our cattle are born and raised here and never fed grain.
Our beef, eggs, and fresh milk are available year around as long as we aren't sold out. Our pork is available in late Summer and Fall.
You can purchase our products direct from the farm, off the internet, or at local farmers markets. The farmers markets we are attending are Joseph, Pendleton, LaGrande, and Pasco.
