About Us
Our Story
We're the Stallings family - a veteran family building a different kind of life from the ground up. After 17 years in the Army, Daniel medically retired and was ready for anything that didn’t involve a desk. When I (Mandie) asked him what he wanted to do next, he said, “I want to farm.” So we did.
What began as a personal quest for real food quickly turned into something much bigger. We struggled to find nutrient-dense, ethically raised food in our area — so we started raising it ourselves. One milk cow later, everything changed. Daniel discovered a deep passion for dairy, and we discovered a calling to fill the gap in our local food system.
Daniel has always been called to serve — first his country, then his family, and now his community through farming. The uniform has changed. The mission is slightly different. But the purpose is the same: to show up with grit, integrity, and a deep sense of responsibility.
Today, we raise A2/A2 Jersey cows for raw milk, beef cattle, pastured pigs, meat chickens, laying hens, holiday turkeys, Nubian goats, ducks, and quail — all rotated through fresh pasture to support healthy animals and healthy land. We also offer educational experiences and bring our food directly to the community through our Mobile Farm Market.
Our mission is to continue serving — both the military families who know the cost of service and the neighbors we now call friends. We're here to rebuild local food systems, nourish our community with transparency and care, and give our daughters a life rooted in faith, connection, and purpose.
After a decade of military moves, handwritten letters across oceans, and all the ups and downs of life, we’re finally home.
We hope our farm becomes known not just for good food, but for something real—honest work, meaningful values, and a commitment you can taste. Whether it’s the milk in your fridge or the story behind it, we’re here to build trust, not just transactions.
