First Generation

My name is Michael Greco, I’m first generation in agriculture. Born and raised in Saugerties, NY which sits between the foot of the eastern Catskill mountains and the Hudson River and where I still call home.

At Little O our goal or commitment is to work with the land, to play a role wether big or small in rebuilding our local community’s connection with it’s food. It’s learning to slow down and live with intention. It’s working with and raising livestock with ethical management — allowing them to live as close to their natural way of life as possible through a holistic and regenerative approach that gives back to the land, soil and water — all while providing local families with nutrient rich meat.

It’s about being a part of our food system and returning it to local farmers and ranchers. It’s about community and bridging the gap between buyer and producer so we have tangible interactions with who raises our food and who buys it. It’s about rebuilding the connection with what we eat and knowing it was raised with compassion, love and care. It’s about land stewardship and working as a part of the ecosystem rather than against it. It’s about slowing down and paying attention. It’s about hard, honest work that requires dedication, grit and love. It’s about thinking small and close to the heart. And It’s about caring deeply for something and working hard for it.

I look forward to raising food you can share with your family.
