…Children are indeed a heritage from the LORD, and the fruit of the womb is His reward.  

Like arrows in the hand of a warrior, so are children born in one’s youth.  Blessed is the 

man whose quiver is full of them. Psalm 127:3-5 

We began farming in 2014, with four young children in tow, with the goal of discipling those children as we worked together learning and living on the farm. Since then we have added two more children to our family and with 10 years of farming experience behind us we are beginning a new season of training up our oldest children to take more of a lead role in the family farming business.

It was our first calling to adoption that lead us to the farming way of life and that calling continues to shape the way that we farm: providing a safe and beautiful place for our children to flourish, meaningful daily work, and hands on learning that reaches beyond disabilities giving unique development opportunities for each child on their own level and at their own pace. But along the way we have also become passionate about passing on a generational way of life to our children and grandchildren should the Lord tarry.

We are living in such a fast paced society that is daily throwing by the wayside everything that is not instant and self focused. We want to build a family economy that is neither of those things but instead long lasting, sustainable through shifting cultural values, content in simplicity, and focused on meeting the needs of others both physically and spiritually. That is why we are a Heritage farm. We not only raise heritage animals, and practice heritage farming principals, but we are also working to create a heritage for our children and grandchildren that would not just last for generations, but would be an eternal heritage built on Jesus, the Cornerstone of all that we are, all that we have, and all that is to come.
