18: Caring for Animals, the Earth, and Ourselves: Regenerative Agriculture with Julie Friend from Wildom Farm
Jun 14, 2022 Season 3

It's time for the final installment of our interview series with the founding female farmers of the Deep Creek Farmers Market!

Our very own Maureen Sheaffer is one of five founding members of the Deep Creek Farmers Market that just started on May 27th, so we've put together a series of interviews to celebrate this new community project! All five founding members are leading ladies here in Garrett County, MD and four of them are local farmers and producers. We've talked with three of the farming ladies so far (we will eventually interview Maureen too!) and rounding out the series is Julie Friend of Wildom Farm in McHenry, MD...

Julie's farming journey started in Chicago...in fashion, actually. From the sustainability scene to exploring her own nutritional wellness and then discovering that the two are linked when it comes to how our food is processed, Julie set out to make some big changes, both for herself and for others...and really, for the animals, too.

At the start of the COVID pandemic, she moved to her parents' property here in Garrett County and officially started Wildom Farm, a regenerative farm that prioritizes animal welfare, ecology, and human health. She currently has 700 animals on the farm and will finish out 2022 having had an astounding 1800 animals! In a nutshell, Julie and her farming operations are impressive!

You can find out more about Julie, Wildom Farm and the products they have available on their website: www.wildomfarm.com. You can also find Wildom Farm on Facebook and on Instagram @wildomfarm
