WHAT IS PEACEFUL PASTURES? Peaceful Pastures is a direct market, all natural, grass fed, meat business producing and selling beef, lamb, goat, pork, duck and turkey. All of the species are pastured in the 300 acre scenic valley where we live. In addition, we maintain and manage an additional 2200 acres and over 400 cow/calf pairs.
WHO IS A TYPICAL INTERN? All of our interns are people dedicated to a summer of learning and diversity; they are eager to accept responsibility and step up to a new level of intensity and growth. They look forward to being independent from family and “High School Ways and Days” for a time of personal achievement.
The scope, size and diversity of our operation allows us to offer outstanding internship opportunities in several areas, yet being a small family run business provides one on one learning, coaching and evaluation.
WHAT ARE SOME OF THE THINGS I’LL LEARN? You’ll gain a foundation in the basics of sustainable agriculture: multi species grazing and husbandry, organic based gardening, and a holistic approach to both management and profitability. You’ll learn what is involved in taking a product from the farm to the store shelf, and you’ll participate in marketing such.
