Autumn’s Harvest Farm operates largely on solar power with very minimal electricity, and the staff typically use one ATV to get places around their property and herd their cattle (although they are currently training their horse, Sugar, to take on a cattle-herding role). Since its founding, they have never incorporated the practices followed by larger livestock confinement farms, so there’s little to draw back from in the name of sustainability and animal welfare. The Hawses operate their 100-acre family farm with the mindset of using the most sustainable operations possible in all of their work. “It’s always great to connect the dots and the people that are raising our food.” “I was blown away the first time I came here,” said Tony Pignagrande, executive chef of the University’s Harvest Table Culinary Group.
