ABOUT US

FUN. FAMILY. FEATHERS. FUR.

Free-range.

/ˈˌfrē ˈˌrānj/
adjective
​(of livestock, especially poultry) kept in natural conditions, with freedom of movement.
We believe that our animals should be raised under the most natural conditions possible while, as their caretakers, providing as best we can for their overall health and safety.  We also believe that poultry and livestock bred and raised in this manner are particularly well-suited for the needs of small family farms and homesteads.
At the heart of our farm is our home.  Raising animals, growing vegetables, learning time-honored skills, respecting    nature, and cultivating a peaceful, prayerful environment for our children -- we believe these are fundamental tasks.  In many ways we are cultivating the free-range life for ourselves as much as for our chickens.  ​
Ultimately, we hope that sharing our livestock and poultry - as well as the knowledge and skills we have acquired - with our local community will benefit other families seeking to restore a culture of what is good and true and beautiful.

Who we are.

We relocated to Oklahoma in December, 2013 - over eight years after Hurricane Katrina both literally and figuratively turned everything upside down back home.  We have been here for over five years now raising animals, exploring our woods, learning all sorts of new things, meeting new people, and having a blast doing it all.

Today we raise Buff Orpington chickens, mini-donkeys, Lionhead rabbits, African geese, pygmy goats, and various other creatures.  We also almost accidentally added several horses to our lives -- something we wish we had done years ago. 

We are a homeschooling family and have the luxury of planning our days around the rhythm of the farm.  A very large part of our motivation to leave the suburbs and find a place where we could live surrounded by natural things is our homeschool.  We believe that humans are best-suited to a thorough study of the Humanities - and so it is that we set out to live a more fully human life as a family. You can find us working tirelessly on some outdoor project during the milder weather months (when those actually come) or inside pouring over books when the heat or cold chases us inside.  We may or may not be joined by a few animals in the living room from time to time. 

We very much enjoy the life we have made here and very often we feel that when a new family brings home one of the creatures we have raised here, we are really and truly sharing a little piece of our joy with them.  And somehow it seems that these are the little things that are sure to make the world a better place.

If you are interested in learning more of the story about our decision to leave suburbia, you can find it here on our blog.
