Welcome to Wormuth Farm: Where Tradition Meets Regenerative Agriculture
Our Story
Wormuth Farm is a small-scale farming operation in Sussex County, NJ, where we’ve been raising poultry, lamb, hogs, and other livestock with care and dedication. Mike Dunn, along with his farm manager, Yanni Srimuangboon, who manages the livestock division, ensure that every animal is raised with the highest standards of care and respect.
Wormuth Farm was founded on the principles of hard work, integrity, and a love for the land and animals. Our founder, Mike, developed an interest in farming as a child raising broiler chickens with his family in rural Ontario. As an adult living in NYC, his curiosity about food systems deepened, driving him to understand how food reaches our tables and how those systems can be improved. This journey led to the creation of Wormuth Farm, where traditional practices are honored and modern sustainability is embraced. From our humble beginnings to the thriving farm we are today, our story is one of growth, dedication, and a deep connection to the earth.

A Commitment Extending Beyond Ethical Animal Treatment
At Wormuth Farm, we raise our broiler chickens, lambs, and pigs on pasture, where they have the freedom to roam, forage, and express natural behaviors. This approach ensures their well-being and results in meat that is more flavorful and nutritious, a world apart from the bland, mass-produced alternatives.
Our commitment extends beyond ethical animal treatment. We don't use chemicals in our pastures, which helps maintain soil health and biodiversity. By reducing dependency on fossil fuels and minimizing the use of pesticides and herbicides, we foster a more sustainable farming practice. Additionally, our energy consumption is lower as there's no need for climate control in confinement barns; our animals thrive in open spaces with natural temperature regulation.
Our pasture-raised lambs graze on a variety of grasses and legumes, while our pigs root around in the walnut groves, enjoying a diverse and natural diet. These practices not only improve the health and happiness of our animals but also enhance the quality and taste of the meat we produce.
By integrating these practices, we promote a healthier environment and produce superior quality meat. Experience the difference with Wormuth Farm's pasture-raised poultry, lamb, and pork.
Our Farming Practices
At Wormuth Farm, we believe in raising our animals with the utmost care and respect. Our livestock enjoy open pastures, sloped elm and walnut tree groves, fresh air, and a natural diet, ensuring their well-being and producing healthier, more flavorful meat. Our chickens are moved daily to fresh grass in floorless coops, allowing them to forage naturally. Our pigs thrive in a shaded groves, exploring and rooting around as they enjoy a varied diet. Our Suffolk lambs graze freely on lush pastures, benefiting from the rich nutrients of the land. We practice rotational grazing to maintain soil health, prevent overgrazing, and minimize our environmental footprint. This method not only promotes the growth of diverse plant species but also improves soil fertility and carbon sequestration. By prioritizing animal welfare and sustainable farming practices, we ensure that every product from Wormuth Farm is of the highest quality, from our pasture-raised chicken to our succulent pork and lamb. Experience the difference that care and sustainability make.

The future of Wormuth Farm is bright, filled with exciting opportunities and growth. We're eager to expand our offerings and enhance our sustainability efforts, ensuring we continue to provide our customers with the finest pasture-raised meats.
We're committed to improving our soil health through regenerative practices, which not only benefit our pastures but also support the overall ecosystem. Bringing life back to the farm involves continuous repairs and improvements, creating a thriving environment for all our animals.
We look forward to welcoming new animals into the world, enriching our farm's diversity and vitality. Our pet turkeys and ducks hold a special place in our hearts, and we take great pride in caring for them with the same dedication we give to all our livestock.
