Welcome!  We so appreciate you stopping by our website to learn more about our little farm and/or check out what we have for sale.

Our farm name, Freedom Five Farm, is founded on Galatians 5:1 and also that we have five members in our family and live on five acres.  Additionally, when I was making sure that we weren’t copying another farm name with my idea, I found something called the “five freedoms,” and that aligned with our philosophy too!

Michigan State University summarizes these five freedoms well:

1. Freedom from Hunger and Thirst: by ready access to fresh water and a diet to maintain full health and vigor.

2. Freedom from Discomfort: by providing an appropriate environment including shelter and a comfortable resting area.

3. Freedom from Pain, Injury or Disease: by prevention or rapid diagnosis and treatment.

4. Freedom to Express Normal Behavior: by providing sufficient space, proper facilities and company of the animal’s own kind.

5. Freedom from Fear and Distress: by ensuring conditions and treatment which avoid mental suffering.

We raise our animals on pasture as much as possible (which unfortunately isn’t year-round with our Wisconsin winters), but even while they can’t be out at pasture, we provide them with a large dry lot, spools and an old playset to climb on, and a great barn for adequate shelter.  We raise them as naturally as possible with herbs as our go-to for any issues, including parasite prevention and management.  This has resulted in an increasingly healthy herd since we brought our first goats home in 2022!

“For freedom Christ has set us free; stand firm therefore, and do not submit again to a yoke of slavery.” Gal. 5:1
