Sickler's Circle View Farm We are a livestock & grain farm selling our own beef, pork, eggs, and local chicken through our on-site farm store.

We share everyday life on the farm, good food, and a look behind the scenes so you can see how food gets to your plate from a local farm.

There have been so many times in this business when I’ve just had to shake my head and laugh…but letting my kids order school lunch because, “MOM, they’re having OUR burgers for lunch!” was definitely not one I had on my bingo card, so to speak. 😅🍔

Through the Jersey Fresh Farm to School Program, schools are given resources and opportunities to connect with local farmers and purchase locally grown and raised food.

Through this program, we’ve had the opportunity to work with several schools throughout Salem and Cumberland counties including our alma mater, the school where I was briefly a school nurse, AND the school our boys attend now.

Talk about some pretty cool “full-circle” moments. 🥰

Knowing that kids right here in our own communities are sitting down at lunch and enjoying food raised on local farms is something we’re really proud to be a small part of. It’s an incredible opportunity to support local agriculture while also helping kids make that connection between the food on their plate and the farms around them.

Last week, we were able to take that connection one step further by welcoming representatives from the NJDA Jersey Fresh Farm to School Program, New Jersey Assistant Secretary of Agriculture Joe Atchison, and Salem County Commissioner Cordy Taylor to the farm. We were also joined by research assistants from Rowan University studying regenerative food systems in South Jersey.

It was a quick visit, but a meaningful one. We’re incredibly grateful for the opportunity to share a little bit of what we do here and even more grateful to have been part of a program that puts locally raised food on local students’ plates!

And yes…when our burgers are on the school lunch menu, my kids are absolutely buying lunch that day. 🤭❤️

There are a lot of words being put on food labels these days to convince us we’re making the environmentally responsible choice.

The reality of farming isn’t quite that simple.

This field is sorghum and sunflowers we’re growing to feed our cattle. But while it’s growing, it’s also…
🐝 providing food and habitat for pollinators and wildlife
♻️ capturing and cycling nutrients
🌱 adding diversity above and below the soil
🐂 and ultimately producing forage for our herd.

None of those things happened because we needed a word to put on a package. They’re simply part of the economic and environmental decisions we make while raising cattle and being the best stewards we can of our land.

Farming isn’t one size fits all. Environmental responsibility isn’t one practice, one certification, or one buzzword.

Some things just can’t fit on a label. 🥩

One thing about this farm boy… when he loves something, he gives it everything he has.

Over the past several months, he’s poured his whole heart into his Jersey calf, Tansy. Every morning starts with chores for her before school. He’s learned more about cattle health than I ever imagined a six-year-old could absorb, and he’s taken the responsibility of caring for another living thing so seriously. If you cross paths with him, there’s a pretty good chance you’ll hear all about his calf. He’s so proud of her.

Halter breaking wasn’t always pretty. Tansy dragged him across the ground on his face more than once. But every single time, he’d get back up, grab the lead rope, and try again.

As his mom, I’ll admit I questioned whether bringing home a dairy calf was the right decision. But watching a little boy who cares about little else besides farming find something that lights him up like this has made every extra chore worth it.

Maybe it’s just a phase. Maybe it isn’t. But wherever life takes him, this journey with his dairy calf and 4-H is already teaching him responsibility, perseverance, compassion, and the satisfaction of caring well for an animal that’s depending on you. His brothers are thoroughly enjoying this journey too.

A heartfelt thank you to Heidi Sugar Maple Jerseys LLC for trusting him with Tansy and helping make this dream possible. You are incredible ❤️

Thank you to Dan & Sarah Dan & Sarah | Dairy Farm & Creamery for the thoughtful gift of a number vest, and thank you to the Ambruster family for welcoming Tansy into your string, getting her ready for show day, and looking after her throughout the fair. Thank you to David’s sister and niece for clipping Tansy and sharing your time, talent, and guidance.

The willingness of dairy families to mentor, encourage, and invest in the next generation is something truly special. Dairy is a tough industry that demands more dedication than most will ever understand. Built on resilient families, an unwavering commitment to animal care, feeding our communities, and supporting rural economies, it’s an industry and way of life worth fighting for.

Looking forward to bringing our little brown cow back to the circle 🤎

If we want to talk about ways to help farmers, the most meaningful conversations happen on the farm and in the fields where farmers live and breathe conservation and the challenges we encounter every day.

Today, David had the opportunity to host leadership from the local, state, and federal levels of the Natural Resources Conservation Service (NRCS) to discuss the strategic utilization of livestock, pasture, crops, no-till farming, rotational grazing, and the infrastructure that makes these conservation practices successful.

Over the years, we’ve utilized NRCS programs in different capacities to help implement some of these practices, and we’re incredibly grateful those opportunities exist. We appreciated the chance to share what we’ve learned, where we’re continuing to improve, and how NRCS can continue to better serve farmers in our area.

Real progress happens through communication, clear expectations, and collaboration with the farmers who are doing the work every day. We’re grateful to be part of those honest conversations.

Took a short break from the heatwave today to drive The Fort Delaware Cornet Band through the Woodstown 4th of July Parade. 🇺🇸

The Fourth of July has always been my favorite holiday for the fact that it’s simple. Neighbors lining the streets, small-town traditions, good music, American flags, kids chasing candy (including our own, hence why they chose to watch rather than ride with their parents 🤣), good food sourced from a roadside farmers market, and a chance to celebrate this country and the freedoms we enjoy, TOGETHER. 🙌🏼

Happy 250th, America! ❤️🤍💙
