Welcome to Fair Hill Farm, 19 acres of heaven in central Ohio.

​

Most people entering the regenerative farming space are not from the world of agriculture. But they all have something in common: they all want to make a difference and live a healthier, more analog, earth-friendly way. 

​

Plans and mentors are a must-have

​

Not only is starting a farm expensive, but it takes many years to become proficient. It is common for people to have expectations and then be surprised with the complexity and ensuing events. New farmers encounter unfamiliar terminology and new concepts. They are suddenly facing different kinds of challenges they never even considered before they started farming. Too often this results in overwhelm and/or financial failure in the third year.

 

I map out and design a personalized steady-growth success program in a collaborative process, based on your goals, abilities, resources, and starting place. This will help you navigate the learning curve, sidestep unnecessary costs and avoid delays in achieving profitable operations for your  regenerative agricultural venture. It is a bespoke roadmap to your desired destination on a reasonable, agreed-upon timeframe that works for you. Read more about the process.  

​

With a source for answers, support, and a personalized plan at the outset, you avoid that roller coaster. You'll reduce monetary risk and friction while tracking your progress. 

​

From agrihoods to ranches - farmstead or little homestead - I'm with you every step of the way, your biggest fan. On my podcast I entertain and inspire first generation farmers with stories of struggle and success, talking about ventures like yours on the Fair Hill Farmstead Life podcast. 

​

My goal is to see you madly successful from the outset.

We need a lot more farmers. 

It's why I do what we do.

​

For corporate clients: Conventional farm reclamations and farmstead startups are common challenges. Agrihoods and sustainable master planned communities offer an exciting path forward where communities can be more resilient, cultivating local sources for food and goods, and reconnecting with their food. I have experience in both these areas.

​

For new farmers: Regardless of the bigger mission, I help you flatten the personal learning curve that comes with adopting a homesteading / farm fresh lifestyle. I help with setting their expectations for the impact this lifestyle will have on their everyday life. When one takes concrete actions to learn skills and create a more resilient, abundant life, it's highly challenging, but one also discovers anxiety about the future is lessened especially as part of a warm vibrant growing community! 

​

Here, we encourage and support each other while contributing to local economies, food freedom, and mutual support and advancement. 

​

Farm on!
