Nestled along the scenic Sakonnet River in Portsmouth, Rhode Island, Aquidneck Farms spans nearly 400 acres of prime agricultural land. The farm is home to a herd of 180 to 200 Black Angus cattle and commits itself exclusively to the production of 100% grass-fed and grass-finished beef. Each animal is born on the farm, nourished by mother’s milk, and raised on nutrient-rich pastures without hormones, prophylactic antibiotics, or grain. The farm’s rigorous rotational grazing practices and winter feed program reflect a deep respect for natural cycles and soil health.
Steeped in responsible land stewardship, Aquidneck Farms proudly manages its entire operation in harmony with the environment. Fertilization relies solely on nutrient-dense manure, chicken droppings, and farm-made compost. The farm’s management practices hold certifications from the Natural Resource Conservation Services (NRCS) and the Rhode Island Department of Environmental Management (DEM), along with a Retail Food Peddlers license through the Rhode Island Health Department. Their meat is butchered and processed under USDA standards in nearby southern Massachusetts, ensuring both quality and traceability from pasture to plate.
In addition to premium beef, Aquidneck Farms raises pastured poultry in movable outdoor coops called “chicken tractors,” which are methodically relocated daily over fresh pastureland. These birds are provided with abundant light, air, exercise, and a natural diet supplemented only with unmedicated grain. The poultry's presence further supports soil vitality, making their farming system a closed-loop model of sustainable agriculture. At their year-round farm store on Wapping Road, customers can also find farm-fresh eggs and a seasonal selection of other local goods, offered with the warmth and transparency that define Aquidneck Farms.
