SPRINGFIELD FARM
Carroll County, MD
Springfield Farm is no ordinary place, and the Smith, Lafferty and Webb families are by no means traditional farmers. The farm has been in David Smith's family since the 1600s, and today, three generations work and live on the 67-acre farm just north of Baltimore, MD, with four natural streams and untold springs bubbling up everywhere (hence the name). Sustainable agricultural methods are practiced (the animals are given no hormones, antibiotics, chemicals, etc.). All animals are offered free-range during the grass-growing season. In addition to free-range chicken eggs, which are available year-round, the farm also offers seasonal duck and goose eggs, chicken, turkey, duck and goose. Beef (grass-fed and natural), grass-fed lamb, pork and rabbit are also available. All animals are treated humanely, allowed to associate with each other and cared for when sick using homeopathic remedies first. You can find Springfield Farm at our Annapolis market.
