Join us for an afternoon tour of Lillian Lee Farm in Aylett, VA. Tim Vaughan is a Navy Veteran and along with his wife, Becky, they operate a 52-acre diversified farm in King William County that focuses on sustainability and humanly raised poultry and livestock. They have a laying flock and they also raise and process broilers on pasture. They raise hogs on both pasture and in the woods. They have also installed a Honey Locust windbreak on their farm that provides pollen and nectar to their 5 beehives and the windbreak also serves as a food source for the local deer and turkey. Attendees will gain knowledge on their processes to raise, butcher, market and sell their eggs, chicken, pork and honey.
