Every purchase of meat from our website brings us closer to achieving holistic management.
Hi, I’m Taylor Henry—Owner and Farmer at Henry Pastures, formerly known as Sidie Hollow Farms.
As a kid, I dreamed of becoming a farmer. But like many young people, I was told, “You can’t make money doing that.” So I put the dream aside and followed a more traditional path. By 21, I was working as a police officer—but I found myself staring down a 30-year career that didn’t feel right.
That’s when everything changed.
I left law enforcement and jumped into entrepreneurship—partnering in a digital marketing agency and launching an outdoors company called 1080 Outdoors. For two years, I immersed myself in business, strategy, and marketing. And then, finally, the opportunity I had been waiting for appeared: a chance to buy land.
While scouting recreational properties with my mom, we stumbled on a rundown farmstead just two miles from where I grew up. I had driven by it for years without a second glance. But that day, something clicked. The views, the location, the potential—it was everything I hadn’t even realized I was looking for.
With the support of my family and best friend, we bought the farm. It was the same day the COVID-19 pandemic shut everything down, but we pressed on. We named it Sidie Hollow Farms, after the nearby park, and began the journey of building something meaningful from the ground up.
We renovated two of the farm’s buildings into Airbnbs, giving guests a firsthand look at life on a regenerative farm. And I went deep into the study of soil, ecology, and land management—reading over 100 books. Two of them—Mark Shepard’s Restoration Agriculture and Gabe Brown’s Dirt to Soil—transformed my approach and set me on a path toward regenerative agriculture.
We raise pasture-based beef, pork, chicken, and eggs, with a commitment to never use tillage, synthetic chemicals, or routine medications. Our goal is simple: keep it natural, healthy, and resilient.
Today, Henry Pastures manages over 300 acres across four farms. We’ve rebranded, expanded, and doubled down on our belief that regenerative farming isn’t just possible—it’s the future. I also help others buy and sell land with the same dream in mind, and have guided over 1,000 acres into the hands of future stewards.
In 2023, I purchased Acres U.S.A., the nation's oldest and largest publisher of regenerative agriculture content. It was a full-circle moment. Acres U.S.A. is more than a publishing house—it’s a lifeline for farmers hungry for real solutions. Through its magazine, books, events, and education, Acres has helped shape the movement I now call home.
When I'm not busy tending to our cattle, I also assist individuals with dreams and aspirations similar to mine in buying and selling land. It has been an incredibly rewarding endeavor, selling over 1,000 acres with the shared goal of promoting regenerative management practices. For More Info On My Real Estate
