Mission Statement
Rooted in hospitality and connection,
Farmstead Eight exists to cultivate belonging,
nurture community,
and create space where neighbors of all ages
can gather for good.
Welcome to Farmstead Eight
This land has a story to tell.
Once a working dairy farm, these eight acres were home to hard work, harvests, and the rhythms of seasons well-lived. The hay barn still stands. The twin silos stretch toward the sky. And the wide-open space remains—a quiet reminder of the goodness that can grow when people care for the land and for one another.
Today, that spirit lives on through Farmstead Eight.
We’re a community initiative rooted in hospitality and connection. Farmstead Eight exists to create space for kids to run and imagine, for teens to gather and grow and for neighbors to connect across fences. It’s a place to breathe deeply, laugh loudly, and find yourself welcomed into something already growing with purpose and care.
In stories exchanged around picnic tables.
In play, in rest, in meals shared and milestones marked.
In being welcomed—just as you are.
Farmstead Eight is about cultivating belonging.
About rediscovering what it means to live as neighbors.
About growing the kind of community that’s rooted in kindness, care,
and the quiet beauty of doing life side by side.
The gate is open, the welcome is wide, and you’re invited to come as you are.
Let’s be neighbors!
Let’s gather for good!
