America is losing a farm a day. We bought one to keep.
One farm. One piece of Mississippi worth saving.
One farm. One piece of Mississippi worth saving.
We bought this land to keep it, regenerate it, and raise our families on it — so we can feed yours from it. We're rebuilding tired Mississippi soil acre by acre, raising the beef, chicken, pork, and lamb that comes from soil we've healed, not mined.
When we took it on, this was old, degraded farmland — grazed flat, cut over, more than 40% of the soil bare. Regeneration isn't a destination you arrive at; it's a practice you repeat, season after season. Four years in, here's what the measurements show — and the work is never done.
We bought back this piece of north Mississippi in 2021 — 800 acres of red clay that had been timbered and walked away from. Allen had been farming regeneratively for decades before that, but Etta Hills as a family-run, direct-to-consumer farm is a recent chapter. The plan is generational: we're farming for the eighth generation, not the next quarter.
Yes — the gate's open. We run tours regularly and welcome anyone curious about how the meat in their freezer actually gets raised. Book a visit at Visit the Farm.
Order direct (it's the best way to keep the farm financially independent), tell a friend, follow us on Instagram and Facebook for the day-to-day, and come visit. If you're a journalist, documentary filmmaker, or fellow farmer interested in the regenerative work specifically, reach out — we like that conversation.
