We create enjoyable, healthy, fun, sustainable food and share it with love in the Charleston and Summerville communities.
Mission
Wishbone Heritage Farms helps people rebuild a relationship with their food, where it comes from, how it is grown or raised, and how best to prepare it. We do this by establishing a direct relationship between the community and the land utilizing biodynamic, sustainable, and regenerative methods and being fully transparent.
Practices
Our farm plan is built on an intensive grazing system which begins by spreading cover crop and forage crop seed in advance of systematic animal rotations. These plants, legumes, and grasses recondition and improve the soil while giving our animals high density nutrition as they are rotated around pasture. As the animals proceed, they cut back the forage, sequestering carbon. They leave behind increased organic material in the form of plant roots under the surface and their manure as fertilizer above it. This brings the cycle back to its beginning to be reseeded and the process starts again. Utilizing this method, we are able to produce over 100,000 lbs of healthy food each year on just 13 acres while improving our land, the environment, and nourishing the community.
