What is the Farhner Homestead?

Are you interested in growing or raising your own food? Are you looking to have a more sustainable lifestyle? Are you burdened by debt or trying to live within your means? If you answered yes to any of these questions, then the Farhner Homestead is the right place for you.

The Farhner Homestead exists in the intersection of homesteadingsustainability, and financial responsibility. These things are not often found together, but our mission is to bring them into balance for you.

  1. We want to empower you to start your own homestead, whether it’s in the narrow strip of grass behind your house, or on the 5 acre lot that has you wondering where to start.
  2. We want to help you do it sustainably, so you can both save money and help provide a better world for your children.
  3. And finally, we want to help you do all this within your means, without going into debt, so that you can become financially successful too!
