Stay Tuned for a continuously updated series of charts and reports monitoring the effects of our farm on the community, including carbon sequestration results, soil-building totals, wildlife and plant diversity demographics, water cycle, and run-off decrease, etc. You will also find lab tests and comparison reports between Ridgemeade Farm meat and produce and commercial meat and produce.

Lab Reports
As part of our commitment to transparency and our passion for education, this tab will host various results from labs specializing in nutrient analysis. We aim to provide a clear comparison between our meats and produce and those which are industrially produced and maintain the lion’s share of shelf space at most grocery stores.

Soil Building
Industrial agriculture depletes soils at exponential rates. Our aim is to BUILD soil at no less than .5 to 1” annually through intensively managed ruminants and poultry on pasture coupled with key-line design and Holistic Management.
-
Carbon Sequestration
Directly tied to soil health is carbon emissions. Industrial Agriculture worldwide emits more than 20x the carbon than all of the cars ever built to date. Check out our charts to see how much carbon our regeneratively managed pastures are sequestering.

Flora & Fauna Diversity
Industrial Agriculture is the world’s hotbed of monocultures. Our aim is the opposite - as much diversity as possible. Our regenerative techniques repair ecosystems, broken water-cycles, and provide an ever-increasing potential for growing diversity.
