Welcome to

Greenwood Farms

The Solution to the Omnivore's Dilemma

 

GREENWOOD FARMS is a family farm located in Missouri Ozarks, about 100 miles southwest of St. Louis. It is owned and operated by Steve and Holly Atkinson, their adult children Julie & David, and David's wife, Kindra. Our farm is nestled in the scenic hills around the Little Piney Creek, farm from the hustle and bustle of urban life. On most days, the only sounds are the calls of birds and the rustling of wind in the trees and the only traffic we contend with are the deer and turkey that share the land with our livestock.

Greenwood Farms is the home of Naturally Raised Beef, Pork, Lamb, and Chicken, Free-Range Eggs, and "Jersey Girl" Grade A Raw Milk—all of which are raised without the use of antibiotics, steroids, or added hormones. We believe that working in harmony with nature is the best way to produce foods that are both healthy and delicious. so everything we sell is raised in a way that puts the health of our customers, the animals’ well-being, and the needs of the earth first.


Greenwood Farms is also home to the many animals that are the foundation of our lives. We share each day with Owain the border collie, Bree & Emma, the Great Pyrenees sheep dogs, and Hank the Yellow Labrador. They are the "fur family" and are our constant companions in all that we do. Out in the pastures, the Berkshire pigs, Dorper sheep, Jersey Cows, and a variety of ducks and chickens enjoy the fresh air and sunshine, giving us in return, the wonderful foodstuffs we offer to you.

 
Living together, working together, and sharing the joy of following our bliss is the realization of our family’s dream and after a quarter century of living close to the land, the Atkinson family is here to say, “We found our dream and we want to share it with you.”
