Tacketts Mill Farm

Welcome to Tacketts Mill Farm!




We are a small family farm located in historic Stafford, Virginia, South of Washington, D.C. and just North of the city of Fredericksburg.  We are dedicated to preserving the heritage of self sufficiency through raising small amounts of livestock and growing our own vegetables and fruit trees.  Our historic farmhouse is located on Aquia Creek, a tributary of the Potomac River

We raise chickens, turkeys, Nigerian Dwarf goats, and honey bees.  We are members of the American Livestock Breeds Conservancy.  Our turkeys are Spanish Blacks and Standard Bronzes, both listed as heritage breeds.  Among our chickens are the heritage breed Barred Plymouth Rocks.  We also raise Black Sex Link/Black Star hybrid chickens.  Black Stars are renowned for their egg production.  When available, we sell fertilized chicken and turkey eggs for you to hatch at home.  We occasionally sell chicks, poults and chickens for pick up at the farm.  Please see our Farm Store page for ordering information.  All of our animals are raised humanely.
