Life on the Farm at DeWall’s Forge

The Farm Of All Trades is another name we go by. We feel it is a little more Comprehensive than DeWall’s Forge. There is a lot more going on with our homestead than just forging. We enjoy diving into many different trades, and we happen to live on a small farm. We offer some fresh vegetables and occasionally baked goods through the summer. Year round we have a rabbitry and keep egg laying chickens. We seek to mimic the patterns of nature with our farming systems. We are learning from the pioneers before us, and developing our own infrastructure to fuel a system of regenerative agriculture that both sustains life and heals the land.

Pastured Pork

We take pride in raising healthy, happy pigs the way nature intended — on pasture, with room to roam and root. Our pork is flavorful, high-quality, and responsibly raised right here on the homestead. Each winter, we open a limited number of spots for half or whole hog orders, available on a first-come, first-served basis.

Rabbitry: Pastured Rabbits & Natural Composting

At DeWall’s Forge Homestead, our rabbitry features a mix of New Zealand Cross and Rex/Rex Cross rabbits — raised with care and respect in a healthy, natural environment.During the summer months, our rabbits are pastured in open fields, where they graze on fresh grass, stretch their legs, and live as nature intended. In winter, they move into a warm, ventilated hoop house designed for comfort and sanitation.Their waste combines with our chickens’ bedding to create nutrient-rich compost — a key part of our regenerative farming cycle. This closed-loop system transforms what might be waste into valuable fertilizer that enriches our gardens and sustains the land.We consistently breed our rabbits and often have young bunnies available for sale. If you’re looking for healthy, well-cared-for rabbits to add to your homestead, we’d be happy to connect you.
