OUR STORY

WELCOME TO THE FARM

At Doanestead Farm, we believe in a simple rhythm: Sow It. Grow It. Stow It.

Nestled in Maine, we’re a small family farm guided by faith, hard work, and a desire to live closer to the land. From ferment to render, we create handcrafted goods using traditional methods, simple ingredients, and a whole lot of care.

Faith guides our work. Family works alongside us. And nature continues to remind us that often the best things are the simplest.

If you’re longing to get back to the basics, we’re glad you’ve found Doanestead.

FROM 8 HENS TO HERE

What started with eight chickens, a small garden patch, and more hope than know-how has grown into Doanestead Farm

My husband and I found our piece of Maine and set out to build a simpler life rooted in faith, family, and stewardship. We’re still learning as we go, and we’re grateful to share the journey with you.

For the real mess and magic—chickens escaping, sourdough rising, tallow rendering, and kids underfoot—follow along on Facebook and Instagram.

Thank you for being here. Your support means more than you know.
