Farm Photos of the Week
May 23, 2005
Photos by Debbie
Roos, Agricultural Extension Agent.


Chatham Choice Farms
Andy and Heather Youngblood
Pittsboro, NC
The top photo is of Emma, Andy and Heather's 6 year old daughter,
and a goat kid. Their son John is shown playfully "boxing"
with Damon, a buck that John grew up playing with (they are both
11 years old), in the bottom photo. Andy and Heather specialize
in raising chickens and turkeys at Rose Hill Farm. They also own
a USDA-inspected poultry processing plant that serves a vital
role in North Carolina as the only plant that processes for small,
independent producers. Although Andy and Heather are well-known
for their expertise raising poultry, they also raise meat goats
and have been instrumental in forming a network of farmers in
Chatham who raise poultry and grass-fed beef, to whom they provide
technical and marketing support.
