Grandad Farms is the family farm of Mark and Sophie Ellison in Emmett, Idaho.
Mark is a beginning farmer who has been farming since 2023. We started farming to grow food the right way, after health struggles showed us how broken much of conventional food production is. We strive to be good stewards of God’s creation.
What we raise
We raise pasture-raised chicken, sold in 20 to 100 lb boxes from $160. Our organic pasture eggs come from laying hens we raise with Saint John’s Organic Farm in Emmett. We also mix chicken and livestock feed on our farm, including corn-free, soy-free coconut feed made without added seed oils.
Our hens get no medications, vaccines, hormones or antibiotics. In warm months we move them to fresh pasture twice a week, and in winter they live on deep bedding.
Certified organic
Oregon Tilth certifies our organic pasture eggs and our Organic Coconut Layer Feed. Our Organic Alfalfa Pellets are also certified organic. Our pasture-raised chicken and other feeds are not certified organic.
