Description

*** GOATS *** EGGS ** POULTRY *** Big Bear Farms, Inc. is a family owned and operated ORGANIC Goat and Poultry / Egg farm. We operate under the strict rules of the USDA - National Organic Program (NOP). We started in 1990 as a conventional farm but by 1991 we had stopped using any chemical pesticides in our production fields. From 1991 til 2004 the only thing that keep us from being organic was our use of regular chemical fertilizers. That changed in 2004 and we are now growing 100% ORGANIC crops. We meet all the NOP regulations by using NO synthetic Herbicides, Fungicides, Miticides, Insecticides or any other Pesticides on our crops and only NOP Approved Organic fertilizers are used. In 2017 we added to our product line LIVE organic Poultry and Eggs. We carry a variety of roosters, laying hens, chicks and ducks for eating which are sold alive. Eggs are fertile and are sold for EATING or HATCHING. We have also added a selection of goats for pets, meat and dairy. Big Bear Farms, Inc. Is a proud participant in the Hillsborough County Agricultural Stewardship Program . We have been the primary sponsor for several years of the Ag. In The Classroom Programs at our local elementary school resulting in several State and local honors including the Hillsborough Education Foundation "2003 Business Partner of the Year " and the State Of Florida "2004 Agriculture In The Classroom Teacher of the Year". At the national level we have received the "2003 Epcot Disney Garden Of the Year" and the National Gardening Assoc. "2004 Garden of the Year". Our efforts continue today with gardens to accommodate over 20 classrooms. Our efforts continue on daily as we try to teach our youth of today that ** FOOD DOES NOT COME FROM A TIN CAN AT WALMART.** We at BBFI believe that the most important crop one can grow is a fertile mind in the youth of today who will become our leaders of tomorrow. As a family farm we take pride in our ability to provide the individual comsumer with that personal touch in the growing that they deserve in supplying the needs of their families. ** No order is too small and only USDA #1 quality is served. **
