Crooked Beak Acres

Vegetables & Fruits; CSA

Welcome to Crooked Beak Acres.  We are a Veteran owned farm specializing in locally grown produce.  Our farm is partially operated with work horses, a practice not found in many places.  We use them as much as possible, but due to the time factor it is necessary to pull out... what my husband calls... real horsepower.  He loves his tractors and I really do not mind. 

Right now we grow commercially, mainly different types of peppers.  we also grow annual flowers to help attract bees and other pollinators.  A CSA is in the makings and will be offered soon.

Sweethaven Farm was established in 1989 by Jon and Sandy Topy when we moved from the suburbs of Louisville, Kentucky to rural Shelby County. Over the past 25 years the farm has passed through several iterations from u-pick blackberries and Angora goats to our current crops of asparagus, garlic and cut flowers. A craft artisan of many years, Sandy will be offering classes at the farm in chair caning, natural dyeing and other fiber arts. We plan to open the farm to the public later in the year for u-pick cut flowers and fiber classes. Visitors are welcome by appointment.

Walnut Cliff Farm

Our boys and girls are raised as naturally as we see humanely fit. The sheep are rotated through their open pastures on a monthly basis to assist in the prevention of internal parasites and foot rot. This rotation also provides for variety and lack of boredom to the sheep. Each pasture has shelter to assist in protection from the weather. 

We vaccinate our lambs when born for CDT (Tetanus). We worm as needed, but not just because the calendar says so. We do not feed antibiotics or growth hormones. Antibiotics may be used if it is medically necessary as we do not want any of our flock to suffer. We do not dock tails The short tails are natural... they are Certified Bob-Tails. We provide a free choice mineral buffet for the flock to choose what their body needs. 

The Royal White is a superior meat sheep and considered to be a true hair sheep. The sheep have been developed for easy care and high performance. They produce a high quality lamb meat and superior garment quality leather.
