About Fluffy Butt Farms
We're Chris and Tawney - owners of Fluffy Butt Farms in beautiful Battle Creek, Michigan. Our farm was established in 2020, at the high point of the pandemic. Our reason? The shelves at our local grocery store were empty. What was left behind we like to describe as “sad” food. Wilted herbs, bruised produce, seasoned meats and of course a whole lot of processed foods, most of which Tawney has problems with.
Before starting the farm Tawney liked to describe herself as a borderline vegetarian. Since starting the farm and raising our own food, we decided to share the fruits of our labors. There is absolutely nothing like fresh farm raised food. We raise our animals in a natural environment, so they get to be animals, we don’t use hormones, we don’t inject the meat with anything. We went from world travelers to growing and raising food for our family and the community in the blink of an eye, and we're excited to be sharing our high quality products with you!
