Ben & Janelle

The Haven Farmstead was started on raw land in the fall of 2022 with these guiding principles: to be a “Haven” for others when needed and to provide food grown and raised with sustainable farming practices. Ben and Jennelle traded a beef cattle ranch in Western North Dakota for a homestead in middle Tennessee. The Haven Farmstead has committed to raising quality meat options, raw milk, and eggs for themselves and others while improving soil quality. The Andersons invite you to the Haven Homestead to view their animal-raising practices and share the lifestyle they love. 

The journey to establish a farm that would feed us has morphed into providing those within our community with clean food options and the opportunity to learn how to live a homesteading life through our hands-on workshops. Acorn Creek Farmstead offers families raw milk, pasture-raised meat and eggs, seasonal CSA packages, home-canned goods, and fermented foods. Enjoy the beauty of middle Tennessee and farm life while staying at our guest house. Here on the farm, we practice simple living with traditional values while striving for food freedom. These are all traits we wish to share with all who visit.

Full Circle Homestead began in 2021 with the goal of redeeming farming practices of the past while embracing the wisdom of the future. The homestead emphasizes land regeneration, holistic animal husbandry, and offering our livestock clean feed options. Our family is passionate about consuming and offering others the opportunity to create clean meals around a table while restoring traditional living.

Rooted in humble beginnings and nurtured by a commitment to wholesome living, the values of sustainability, integrity, and quality steady our family farm. With a passion for homesteading and a commitment to non-toxic living, our little farm embraces a holistic approach to nourishment and learning.
