Review of Rose Creek Farm by TexasRealFood

Pamela and Ronnie Johnson established the Rose Creek farm in Wise County in 2005. On 30-acre farmland, the farmers at Rose Creek Farm grow crops, herbs, chickens, and turkeys.

Moreover, the farm is certified naturally-grown. Therefore, they only focus on growing certified organic seeds and heirloom varieties. To sustainably support the farmland, they practice natural farming techniques. Some of the most common practices they do are composting, vermiculture, and utilizing animal manure in fertilizing the soil.

On the other hand, they also sell organic corn-supplemented pastured chicken, turkey, and eggs. "Super nutritious, super fresh, and grown with love and care. THE BEST!!!"

If you want to try their product, try their new online coop and see if they deliver to you. Currently, the farm supports delivery to Denton, Decatur, and Fort Worth.

 

Farming Methods, Practices & Certifications

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

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.
