Mariposa Farm is a family-owned, pasture-based farm located in Frenchtown, New Jersey. Established in 2002 by Waldo Hotz and his daughter Beckie, the farm is dedicated to raising healthy livestock, caring for the land, and providing high-quality farm products to the local community. The farm specializes in pasture-fed Katahdin lamb, fresh brown eggs from pasture-raised hens, and raw honey produced by its own honeybees. Its sheep are raised through rotational grazing, while its chickens roam fresh pastures in mobile shelters known as Eggmobiles. The farm's honeybees forage on local wildflowers, clover, and other flowering plants to produce naturally flavorful honey. Mariposa Farm offers whole lamb and custom meat cuts through a local family-owned butcher, along with fresh eggs and honey for customers seeking locally produced food. The farm also raises registered Katahdin breeding sheep and occasionally offers peafowl to other farms. Through careful animal husbandry, pasture management, and sustainable farming practices, Mariposa Farm continues its mission of supporting healthy land, animals, and local food traditions in Hunterdon County.
