Loeffler Farms: Grants, New Mexico

About Christine’s farm

For the last four years, Christine Loeffler has been raising chickens, ducks, geese and turkeys on her farm in Grants, NM. The 10-acre farm is situated in ponderosa pine forest, allowing plenty of room for her flock to forage. On the farm, Christine raises a wide range of heritage breeds including Rhode Island Reds, Barred Rocks, White Rocks, Delawares, Buff Orpingtons, Black Australorps and New Hampshires. Loeffler Farms is an Animal Welfare Approved production and her produce is certified organic as well.  For Christine, applying for these high-welfare certifications was an easy choice.  “That’s how I planned to raise my animals anyway, so why not get the added publicity and benefits of certification,” she explained. The Animal Welfare Approved certification and Organic label, allow Christine to effectively communicate to her customers the sustainable and humane practices utilized on the farm and assure consumers that they are receiving a high-quality product.
