Multi-Species, Rotationally Grazed Livestock Farm Tour

Middleville, MI 

Tuesday, June 18, 2019
4-7 p.m.

Named for the sandhill cranes that make the farm their home each spring, Crane Dance Farm is nestled among the rolling hills, woods, and wetlands of Barry County, Michigan, a perfect setting for a sustainable, regenerative, pasture-based farm. Jill Johnson and Mary Wills raise genetically modified organism (GMO)-free, pasture-raised pork, turkeys, and chicken eggs, as well as 100 percent grass-fed beef and lamb. All of their cattle, pigs, and lambs are bred, born, and finished on their farm. Raw honey is also part of their enterprise. They market their products year-round on farm and at the Fulton Street Farmers' Market and the Holland Farmers' Market.

The farmers are passionate about the connection of their farm to the heath of the planet, their livestock, and people. In 2010, they were the first farm in Michigan to be certified for pork by Animal Welfare Approved. They believe that their farming philosophies and techniques (in stark contrast to the confinement life of factory farmed animals) are better for the earth, better for the animals, and, ultimately, better for humans.
