About Us:

We sell pasture and forest raised pork, pastured chicken, and pastured turkey in Eastern Pennsylvania. We farm 28 acres in Lehigh County in a way that provides nourishing food for people, heals the land, and respects the lives of the animals we raise. Our nutrient dense, pastured meats are available through on-farm pick up (by appointment), by joining our Chicken Share, and through membership with several area vegetable CSAs. 

We at Ledamete Grass Farm (pronounced let ’em eat!) believe that our health is directly connected to what we eat. We raise healthful, nutrient-dense food, which in turn provides us with an abundant, high-quality life. Whether our food is plant or animal, the quality of nutrition it grants us depends on the soil from which it grows. This is why we, as farmers, begin in the soil. 

Through organic management of our land, we care for the gifts of soil, air and water, farming in a way that sustains these important resources. Our animals eat the lush pasture and fertilize it naturally as they roam in their paddocks. We rotationally graze our pastures, giving the land a rest, to repair and fully digest all that the animals have given. The grasses grow tall, drawing minerals and nutrients from the manure, soil and sun, replenishing themselves and ultimately going to seed. Once the pastures have re-grown and are lush and green, they are ready to be grazed again. 

We believe that an animal will provide the utmost nutrition and flavor when it is allowed to live in its natural environment. Our responsibility as caretakers is to create the best environment possible, ensuring the animals a high quality of life, for this affords the greatest nourishment in the food we produce for you, our customer.
