At Drumhiller Farms, it’s our mission to produce healthier more flavorful food for families while restoring our pastureland. Raising animals in harmony with their design results in better food for you, a better life for them and healthier and more resilient pastures for generations to come. Natural • Humane • Regenerative • Drumhiller Farms is owned and operated by us, Nathan and Allyson Drumhiller, with the help of our family. We are thankful for the opportunities we have to spend time outdoors as a family, caring for our animals and growing food. We see great value in the rich traditions of family-owned farming and work to continue those traditions while implementing practices that are natural, humane and regenerative. We give all the glory to the God who guides us daily. It is of the utmost importance to us that our methods are harmonious with God’s design. Join us—alongside our blended family of four boys—in the day-to-day operations of our first-generation farm. We focus a lot on soil health. After all, nutritious food comes from healthy animals, healthy animals are raised on healthy pastures and healthy pastures require healthy soils. We weren’t raised on farms but this is something that God has called us into and we rely on Him for insight on how to make this farm work. We add videos regularly. Allyson loves creating jewelry—each of her skillfully made pieces radiate her love for nature and beauty. Each piece of her Wild Riverbend Rustics collection is handcrafted with careful attention to detail—no two are alike. When she is not spending time with her family, operating the family business or working on the farm, the silver-smithing lapidarist can be found creating at her bench.
