You don't have to have acres or animals
to feel rooted in simplicity, joy and peace.
Welcome to Little Forest Farms - a small family farmstead with a big heart, sharing simple living, creativity and connection through the rhythms of everyday life.
Little Forest Farms began as a simple dream - to slow down, get our hands in the soil and build a life connected to the rhythms of nature. Today, our days are filled with feathers, fiber and fresh air - and we’re grateful to share a bit of that with you.
Feeling Rooted in the Middle of Real Life
Little Forest Farms grew from our family’s desire to slow down and root ourselves in the simple, joyful rhythms of everyday life - even in the middle of a busy, modern world.
Between full-time work, homeschool lessons, part-time jobs and our little eBay store, we’ve discovered that living simply isn’t about acreage, free time or having the “perfect” homestead.
It’s about presence.
We gather eggs, crochet, create art, grow food and tend this small patch of earth because these gentle rituals bring us joy and keep us connected - to each other, to nature and to the legacy we’re nurturing for our daughter.
And we hope to remind you that you can find that same sense of grounded simplicity wherever you are, with whatever space or time you have.

Come Spend Time With Us at These Upcoming Events
Whether we’re at a local market, hosting a cozy workshop or opening the farm for a seasonal gathering, each Little Forest Farms event is an invitation to slow down, connect and experience the simple joys that guide our everyday life. No matter where you are or how full your schedule feels, we hope you’ll find something that brings a little more rooted simplicity, creativity and peace into your world.

Notes From the Farm
Little Forest Farms is more than the work we do - it’s the stories, lessons, laughter, dirt and animal poop that fill our days.
In our Journal, we share reflections from the homestead: small victories, seasonal rhythms and the quiet reminders that joy often lives in the ordinary. Whether you’re tending your own garden, living in the city or somewhere in between - these notes are our way of saying, "Welcome. You belong here too."
If our rhythm speaks to you, join our Farm Family Circle for cozy stories and slow-living inspiration sent directly to your inbox a few times per month.
We believe your inbox should feel like a cozy visit, not a chore. Choose what fits your rhythm below...you can always change it later.
