Provident Farms
Organic Dairy Farm
Provident farm is an organic, pasture-based, diversified livestock
family farm in Lycoming, and Tioga Counties. David Johnson and
his family manage a cross-bred dairy herd. The cows rotationally-graze
pastures containing orchardgrass, white clover, perennial ryegrass,
and some other pasture species. Although the land is sloping and
somewhat poorly-drained, the Johnsons are successfully and profitability
producing organic milk that is sold to the Organic Valley Cooperative.
The Johnsons also produce pastured poultry, eggs, and beef for
their family, and for direct sales to the local community and restaurants.
