Nomination for Sustainable Meat Producer of the Year

Prosperity Acres was nominated for Calvert County Sustainable Meat Producer of the Year by our customers.  We are so excited about this nomination as it means to us that our efforts to raise healthy and sound animals for consumers to eat is making a difference in our community.

The new award recognizes a local meat producer whose animals are raised, transported and processed humanely as defined by the Southern Maryland Meats program standards.  Products should not be fed animal by-products or given growth implants, and are given antibiotics only when medically necessary.  The products should be sold locally and consumers should have access to clear, consistent and accurate information about how the animal was raised and fed.

From the beginning we decided to raise our animals the way we think all animals should be raised and that is cared for consciously from beginning to end.  It is not a race for us, we are stewards of our animals on a daily basis.  We know their behaviors and habits.  Each of our animals are called by their name.  We are very conscious about where are animals are butchered also.  We want to make sure that our animals are not scared in the end and that the consumer isn’t eating high levels of stress hormones in their meat.

Our animals are never given antibiotics to promote growth, we raise our animals to be healthy and keep them in an environment that promotes healthy living therefore we encounter very few illness on our farm.  We also are very excited about our goats doing what goats do best and that is be browsers.  Having our goats at Mellomar Golf Course www.mellomar.com  has made a big different for the goats as well.  They love their job at the golf course.  We are raising our goats the way nature intended them to be raised so now the meat we produce from the goats is as natural as it can be.

Thank you to our customer’s for nominating us and we look forward to the results of the contest.
