A haven for organic produce and rescued doggos

Review of Shutt’er Down Ranch by TexasRealFood

Established in 2011, Shutt'er Down Ranch has been a stalwart provider of pesticide-free goods, specializing in organic produce and becoming the leading distributor of Orpington Chickens in Texas. In 2016, their journey took an unexpected twist when they welcomed Girty, initially thought to be a miniature pig but later revealed as a full-sized potbelly pig. Despite Girty's passing in December that year, her legacy lives on in the form of Girty's Haven, a sanctuary dedicated to rescuing and rehabilitating animals with medical needs, with proceeds from local farm-to-table restaurant partnerships contributing to their mission. Girty's Haven strives to provide essential vet care and find forever homes for these animals, a cause supported by satisfied customers who appreciate their vital work. If you're interested in visiting or learning more about Shutt'er Down Ranch, you can find them at Munzee Marketplace or contact them directly for farm tour inquiries. Please note that their CSA page hasn't been updated since August 2015.

Farming Methods, Practices & Certifications

Certified Organic Certified Organic

Certified Organic

This is food or agricultural practices that comply with the standards of organic farming. These standards may vary worldwide, but generally speaking, organic means that pesticides, fertilizers, and other chemical additives/amendments are restricted, in the aim of protecting ecological biodiversity. For a farm or a food to be certified organic in the US, they need to obtain a special certification from the governmental food safety authority, the National Organic Program of the USDA. Organic foods are increasingly demanded by the consumer, from a concern for personal health and for the ecosystem.  There are many ways to become Certified Organic, but the most common one for the US is the government agency USDA Organic. Organic certification requires that farmers and handlers document their processes and get inspected every year. Organic producers rely on natural substances and physical, mechanical, or biologically based farming methods to the fullest extent possible.UD

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.
