Company description

Tierra Verde Farms is a pasture-based, regenerative livestock farm located in Deerfield, Ohio. We raise beef, pork, chicken, and lamb using methods that prioritize healthy land, healthy animals, and healthy people. Our cattle and sheep are 100% grass-fed and grass-finished, and all animals are rotationally grazed to promote soil fertility and animal well-being.

Pigs and poultry are raised on pasture and supplemented with non-GMO, chemical-free grains—never any glyphosate. We believe that animals thrive when they can express their natural behaviors, and that great farming starts with great care for the land and those who live and work on it.

Tierra Verde is a values-driven farm where people, animals, and ecosystems are treated with dignity and long-term vision. We aim to make decisions today that our grandchildren will be proud of.
