Hatchery & Breeding

  • We currently breed purebred ducks, chickens, and peafowl.
  • We hatch in house and sell fertilized hatching eggs for you to incubate yourself.
  • We breed Miniature Potbelly Pigs, Miniature Donkeys and Miniature Goats.

Sustainability

  • To keep our costs down, we raise and grow our own food. Collecting eggs, raising our own meat, and grow fruits and veggies in our garden and greenhouse.
  • We buy grain locally and mill our own animal feed.
  • Breeding and hatching creates a revolving income that goes back into purchasing feed, materials and maintenance of our land.
  • We can and dehydrate to preserve what we have grown and bought in bulk. And plan to get into freeze drying in the near future to further extend the shelf life of our stockpile.

Our farmstand is open!

Welcome to the newest addition on the homestead. Our honour system farmstand is open daily from 10am to 8pm for all our shelf stable items. Baked goods are available Friday through Sunday with the option to pre-order. Everything in our farmstand is made or grown on our homestead. If you’re in the area drop in to see what’s available. 

All the proceeds from our stand goes back into finishing the interior of our farm stand shed. We will post any updates on our social media accounts if you would like to follow along.

Cuddle A Critter

Sometimes, the best therapy comes with fur, feathers, or floppy ears. Spending time with animals has been shown to lower stress, ease anxiety, and boost mood — and on our homestead, you can experience that magic firsthand. Slow down, breathe deep, and enjoy the simple joy of connecting with a gentle goat, a baby donkey, or a curious chicken. Whether you need a break from life’s hustle, a mental health recharge, or just a reason to smile, “Cuddle a Critter” is a heartwarming escape you’ll carry with you long after you leave.

Homesteading Guide:

  • Generating Income

    Keep in mind that homesteads are known to not be an income generating endeavour. But I have found a loop hole and with solid research, planning and execution while starting your homestead you can be well on your way to making money.

  • Budgeting & Frugility

    One of the biggest downfalls of homesteading is the high costs in materials, equipment and well…. Life. Shop around, prioritize your projects, and try not to rush the process.

  • Homestead Planning

    I followed this 100% …..whoops added too many zeros. I meant I followed this 10%. You are starting a new journey, you’re excited, you can have all the animals. BUT that’s backwards and we learnt our lesson. Chicken math will get you… and I’m here to tell you that you need to walk before you can run.
