Welcome to Homestead 41, our family-run farm nestled on five acres in Johnstown, Ohio. We are a small-scale regenerative farm built with a clear purpose: to raise clean, honest food and help others reconnect with where their nourishment comes from.
Our journey into farming began with a decision to leave city life and pursue a way of living that allowed us to support our family through honest work and to know, firsthand, what we are eating. As first-generation farmers, we have built this farm intentionally, guided by faith, careful study, and hands-on experience earned season by season.
We raise Berkshire pigs, grass-fed beef and lamb, and pasture-raised poultry and rabbits using practices that prioritize animal welfare, thoughtful nutrition, and stewardship of the land. Our livestock is managed on pasture whenever possible, using rotational grazing to support soil health, encourage natural behaviors, and build resilient systems rather than short-term output.
Across the farm, animals are raised without corn or soy and cared for with close attention to health, behavior, and long-term soundness instead of rapid production. Feed choices, stocking density, and daily management decisions are made with the goal of producing nourishing food while respecting the animal and the land it depends on.
Our heritage meat rabbits are raised colony-style rather than in individual cages, allowing for natural movement and social behavior. During the growing season, meat grow-outs are managed on pasture, with the same care and intention applied across the farm.
Our poultry programs focus on hardy heritage and rare-breed chickens, raised on pasture for strength, vitality, and quality rather than industrial efficiency.
Indoors, we grow organic microgreens and other vegetables year-round using non-GMO seeds. These crops allow us to provide fresh, nutrient-dense food regardless of season and expand what we are able to offer through local delivery.
We believe food is medicine, and that the Lord has entrusted us with the responsibility to care for the land and the animals with integrity. We choose not to participate in a food system that prioritizes profit over health and transparency. Instead, we strive to farm in a way that honors creation, regeneratively, respectfully, and with gratitude for what God provides.
Whether you are seeking nutrient-dense meats, fresh greens, or thoughtfully raised livestock for your own farm or homestead, we are here to help you take a step closer to your food, your health, and the way things were meant to be.
