"The greatest fine art of the future will be making a comfortable living from a small piece of land." - Abraham Lincoln
We breed Heritage Breed Poultry and Jumbo Coturnix Quail on a small homestead in Shelby, Alabama. We also make a variety of jams, jellies, preserves, hot sauces and other canned goods. Spring and Summer we grow a selection of produce, specialty hot peppers, and other plants & flowers.
Our Story
Matthew and Lauren were both born and raised in Homewood, Alabama. After graduating high school in 2005, Matthew pursued a career in Culinary Arts and Lauren was in outside sales for a major wholesale seafood company. Their combination of experience in sales and the food industry, combined with the passion for living a simple life off the grid, our dream of having a Homestead came to life in late 2019. We take pride in what we do, breeding chickens and quail as well as coming up with all kinds of new flavors of jams, jellies and hot sauces for quality. We currently reside in Shelby, Alabama near Lay Lake with our 2 children, Jackson and Remi.
We strive for quality. Our goal from the very beginning of this adventure was to build a life we love, by doing the things we love. We want to be able to put out more than we have put into this. We want to give back to the community and make an impact with a positive purpose.
We'd love to hear from you! Please feel free to get in touch with any questions or comments and we will get back to you as soon as possible.
