About Us
Rocky Top Farm is situated on a large property in New Ross with lots of pasture and woodland. I raise cattle, sheep, laying hens, meat chickens, turkeys, pigs, ducks, geese, and Australian Shepherd dogs! In the fall and winter season we harvest from our balsam fir woodlot for direct and wholesale orders of boughs, wreaths, and Christmas trees. Rocky Top Farm is also home to a Federal Egg Grading Station (N-12), where we process all of our own eggs and also offer the custom grading service to other farmers.
Practices
We strive to produce everything as naturally as possible. We make our own hay and haylage without herbicides or pesticides. Our balsam fir woodlot is 100% natural with no chemical fertilizers or pesticides - maintained, sheared, and harvested by hand. All of our livestock is raised without hormones or regular antibiotics. Of course, veterinary care and monitoring is provided as needed. Laying hens, turkeys, ducks, geese, and meat chickens are fed an all natural 100% grain feed with no by-products. Rocky Top Farm values biosecurity, but is open to visitors by appointment and happy to talk to customers about our farm!
