If you think farming is just about raising animals and watching the grass grow, think again. The honest truth is that running a successful small farm is 10% farming and 90% problem-solving.
In this video, we’re pulling back the curtain on two very different, but equally vital, problems we solve every day at Sheraton Park Farms.
Part 1: The Biological Problem (Flies)
Flies are a major stressor for cattle, but we refuse to use harmful chemicals on our land. Chuck demonstrates our new chemical-free fly trap system using a specialized bucket lid. It’s a low-cost, high-impact way to keep our herd comfortable and healthy without compromising our regenerative standards.
Part 2: The Economic Problem (Sales)
Having a great product doesn't mean anything if you can't get it to your customers. Saundra takes you on a full tour of our mobile farm store trailer. We discuss:
Trailer Setup: How we designed our "store on wheels" for efficiency.
Market Strategy: Why we prioritize local markets like Clemmons and how we talk to our customers.
Business Growth: The importance of professionalizing your sales tactics to build a sustainable farm business.
Why We Share This:
We want to see more small farms succeed. By showing you how we handle these daily "roadblocks," we hope to give you the tools to solve problems on your own homestead or farm.
What’s the honest truth about running a small farm?
It’s not peaceful sunsets and slow mornings… it’s constant problem solving.
In today’s video at Sheraton Park Farms, we’re dealing with a real issue that livestock farmers know all too well—flies bothering cattle—and testing a simple, chemical-free solution to keep our animals comfortable without compromising our regenerative practices.
But solving problems in the pasture is only part of the story.
Saundra also takes you behind the scenes of our mobile farm store setup, showing how we turn the daily challenges of farming into a direct-to-consumer business at local farmers markets.
👉 In this video:
A natural approach to fly control for cattle
Why we avoid chemical treatments on our farm
A full tour of our farmers market trailer
How we sell directly to customers
The reality of running a small farm business
This is real farm life—figuring things out one problem at a time.
