Poultry
Our poultry flock is as colorful and diverse as the eggs they lay! We raise a variety of chickens including Black Copper Marans, BBS Ameraucanas, Silkies, Olive Eggers, Black Australorps, and Dominiques—each adding their own charm and personality to the coop. In addition to chickens, we also keep ducks and turkeys, all of which play a part in our farm’s rhythm and provide us with fresh eggs, pest control, and plenty of entertainment.
Rabbits
We raise a small group of Angora rabbits, and we think they’re just about the cutest, fluffiest creatures on the farm. While they’re a joy to have around, they also serve a purpose—providing nutrient-rich fertilizer for our gardens. One day, we hope to take it a step further and spin their soft fiber into homegrown yarn for handmade goods.
Cows
We’ve always had a love and deeper appreciation for all things bovine. Our current herd includes Maple, our beautiful Brown Swiss milk cow, and her sweet heifer Honey, a gentle Swiss/Angus cross. And there’s Lolly, our charming Mini Belted Galloway, who brings plenty of personality and a whole lot of farmyard flair to the mix.
Goats
We raise a small herd of Nigerian Dwarf–Mini Nubian cross goats. By combining these two breeds, we aim to create hardier, easy-to-manage goats with strong milk production and gentle temperaments.
Mini Horse
Ruby is our gentle and laid-back mini horse, and she’s truly a sweetheart. She loves slow strolls around the pasture, soaking up scratches, and never turns down a treat. Her quiet presence brings a sense of calm to the farm, and she’s especially good with little ones—patient, kind, and always happy to make a new friend.
Garden
Our garden is the heart of our homestead—where faith, food, and hard work come together. We grow a variety of fruits, vegetables, and herbs, using organic methods and compost from around the farm. Whether we’re harvesting tomatoes for sauce or herbs for salves, the garden is where so much of our family’s nourishment begins. It’s a place of learning, abundance, and joy—a reminder of God’s provision and the beauty of growing things.
Farmstand
Our farmstand is an extension of everything we love about homesteading—simple, seasonal, and made with care. You’ll find a variety of homegrown and handmade goods, including fresh produce, baked treats, herbal salves, elderberry kits, all things sourdough, natural body care, and more. Everything we offer is rooted in the work of our hands and the rhythms of our farm. Whether you’re stopping by for fresh eggs or a thoughtful gift, our farmstand is here to bring a little bit of homestead goodness to your home.
