On our farm, we raise Scottish Highland and Highland-Angus cows, Shetland Sheep, Heritage Pigs, Alpine goats, Emden Geese, and Heritage Chickens.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">When visitors to our farm step out of their cars, they often describe feeling a sense of peace or tranquility here. We know what they mean: both the gentle mooing of the cows and the constant clucking of the chickens makes the farm a welcome respite from the noisy chaos of the modern world. Many years ago, we named our home <em mutable-parsed=\"true\">Fair Haven<\/em>: we want our home to be a peaceful, joyful retreat.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-media-text has-media-on-the-right is-stacked-on-mobile\" style=\"grid-template-columns:auto 41%\"><div class=\"wp-block-media-text__content\">\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">We don\u2019t see Fair Haven Farm as a mere business: it is a gift to our community to help you stretch your food dollar and access healthy food for less.
