Review of The Medina Farm by TexasRealFood

On four acres of land, the Medina Farm is a small biodynamic and sustainable farm in Wharton, Texas. The owners Noe and Debra Medina combine conventional concepts. These concepts encourage natural and self-sustaining practices. Moreover, they offer homegrown pasture-raised chicken & beef and seasonal organically-grown produce. Also, they sell select products for healthy eating. These products include goat milk soaps, lotions & essential oils. Also, their poultry is guaranteed non-GMO, soy-free, antibiotic-free, and hormone-free. You can buy their merchandise and farm products at Provisions Bistro & Market in downtown Wharton from Mondays to Saturdays, 10 am to 6 pm. Farm visits during nights and weekends by appointment are available as well. Contact Debra Medina for more information. 

Farming Methods, Practices & Certifications

Biodynamic

Biodynamic

Biodynamic agriculture is based heavily on Rudolph Steiner’s 1924 lectures, which are rooted in his spiritual and philosophical theories. This movement is defined as a holistic, ecological, and ethical approach to farming, gardening, food, and nutrition. Steiner’s lectures to farmers emphasised a new way to integrate scientific understanding with a recognition of spirit in nature. Biodynamics has continued to develop and evolve since the 1920s, and is practiced in differing degrees throughout the world. Many of the principles emphasise the farm as a living organism on all levels, biodiversity, and poly-culture ecological systems incorporating plants and animals, as well as planting in relation to the moon’s cycles throughout the month.

Grass Fed / Pastured Grass Fed / Pastured

Grass Fed / Pastured

The term “grass fed” (as opposed to grain fed) refers to meat obtained from cows that were raised on a diet of grass and other forage, such as clover; situated in pasture and, when fresh grass is unavailable, hay. This helps to denote the difference between livestock that has been raised in feedlots and generally fed a diet of soy and corn, versus animals that have had access to their natural feeding environment in pasture, which contains grasses, wildflowers, and herbs. This term overlaps with “pasture-raised” and will usually be seen together. Grass-fed beef is also believed to taste better, and be better for the environment, too. There are several organizations that offer a certification for Grass Fed, such as the American Grassfed Association, Certified Grassfed by A Greener World, and Pasture for Life, to name a few.

Naturally Grown Naturally Grown

Naturally Grown

Some of the businesses listed in our directory will be using the same principles as Certified Naturally Grown farmers, but without the certification. Certifications can often be expensive and time consuming for most farmers to participate in, and therefore we feel it is important to acknowledge those who practice good land stewardship, without certification.
