Welcome to Chase Hill Farm
Chase Hill Farm is a small organic certified dairy farm located in the Pioneer Valley of western Massachusetts. Our mission is to be a source of healthy, high quality, local food created from 100% grassfed cows. Our herd of Normande cows are bred for both beef and milk production. We use sustainable low input practices including rotational grazing, seasonal calving, and draft horsepower. We use a cheese cave to store and age the cheese.
The solar panels on our barn roof provide a large portion of the electricity we use on the
farm.
We bought a horse-powered treadmill which we plan to use this year to power the milking machines. While the horses are exercising they will create energy to milk the cows, rather than using electricity to run the vacuum pump and milking machines.
Look for some new and returning cheeses in 2013 at market, in stores, and local
restaurants in Greenfield and Gill. Italian Grace is returning to our lineup. Alpine Autumn is our new natural rind gruyere-style cheese, and we hope to offer a blue cheese too! Also, keep an eye out for our new labels!
This institution is an equal opportunity provider and employer.
