A working homestead raising food and families the original way — clean produce, raw honey, grass-fed beef and dairy, skilled farrier care, and a restored schoolhouse for gathering.

Coming soon

The Barn Event Center

One flexible barn for weddings, clinics, and ministry gatherings: string lights, draped greenery, wooden tables, and an open dance floor. Bookings open soon.

HEAL Homestead exists to help people rediscover the life the Creator intended for His creation — through stewardship of the land, meaningful work, horses, agriculture, and the outdoors. More than a farm, it's a place where faith, family, craftsmanship, and education build a legacy that serves generations to come.

Why it grows clean

It starts in the worm beds.

Our produce is fed by vermiculture — worm castings that turn scraps and manure into living soil, no synthetic fertilizer required. The same beds supply nightcrawlers over on HEAL Outdoors.

Not sure what you need? Start a weekly share.

Tell us your household size and we'll build a rotating box of produce, eggs, and pantry goods — one message, one pickup a week.

Land stewardship & outdoor education

Beyond gear, HEAL Outdoors is about conservation, ethical harvest, and teaching the next generation to read the land. Ask about guided days, habitat work, and youth outdoor clinics.

Meet your farrier

Anna Fabisiak

Anna specializes in applying glue-ons and in corrective trimming. She brings extensive knowledge to every hoof, drawing on her previous experience in equine bodywork and a lifetime spent working with livestock.

Meet your farrier

Brad Menard

After relocating to Wisconsin, Brad deepened his knowledge of podiatry under mentors including former University of Wisconsin farriers Martin Roche and Dean Johannemeyer. He went on to attend the Ric Redden Podiatry School in Lexington, Kentucky.

He continues his education today with colleagues and mentors, including Yogi Sharp of The Equine Documentalist and renowned trainer Nahshon Cook.

Assess

We evaluate your horse’s hooves, movement, history, and goals — using Farrier View radiographs where they help us see the full picture.

Tailor a game plan

We build a plan around what your horse actually needs: trimming, shoeing, glue-ons, or corrective and therapeutic work, with a schedule to match.

Assign the right farrier

We match your horse with the farrier best suited to its needs at that time — Anna or Brad — and adjust as your horse progresses.

Start with step one

Request an assessment.

Tell us about your horse and we’ll reach out to schedule an assessment and talk through a plan.

Haul in & save

Bring your horse to the homestead.

We encourage haul-ins so we can spend less time on the road and more time on your horse. Haul in to HEAL Homestead and save, plus get complimentary Farrier View radiographs with every haul-in.

Farrier View radiographs

See inside the hoof before we trim.

Pre- and post-shoeing radiographs make sure your horse is dialed in at the highest level, with the ability to check our work. Images are unlimited until you're satisfied with the trim or shoe results, guiding precision trims, shoes, and glue-ons.

Ask about radiographs

Radiographs are for non-diagnostic purposes only and are not a substitute for veterinary evaluation.

The schoolhouse

A place set apart for gathering.

We're restoring the old schoolhouse into a home for men's, women's, and family fellowships — a quiet, ordinary place to share a meal, open the Word, and encourage one another back toward the way we were made to live.

We watched food get further from the field and families get further from each other, and we felt a pull back toward something older and truer. So we put our hands in the dirt. We learned to keep bees, raise cattle, and take hoof care to the next level. We fixed what was broken on the land — and found it fixing something in us.

HEAL Homestead is where that work continues, in the open, with anyone who wants to join. Our aim is simple: raise good food, keep old skills alive, and lead our family — and yours — back to the original way we were created to live.

How HEAL got its name

It started with three calves who weren't supposed to make it.

They came to us thin enough to count every rib — three calves, severely underfed, heads low, eyes dull. A couple of dogs followed not long after, carrying their own kind of hurt. We didn't have a plan. We had a barn, a pasture, and a stubborn belief that nothing should be left that way.

So we fed them. Morning and night, bucket by bucket. We sat with them in the straw. And slowly, the way spring sneaks up on a field, something changed. Ribs disappeared under muscle. Heads came up. One morning the calves met us at the gate, bawling for breakfast like they owned the place — and the dogs were right there with them, tails going.

Somewhere in those long days, we realized they weren't the only ones healing.

The quiet of the pasture, the rhythm of chores, the simple work of caring for something that depended on us — it was mending us too. This land had a way of restoring whatever was brought to it. That's where the name came from. We stopped calling it "the property." We started calling it HEAL.

And with the name came a harder, better truth: this place was never meant to heal only us. Our purpose is to carry that healing outward — to the animals who arrive broken, and to the people who arrive tired, searching, or simply hungry for something real. Every hoof we trim, every row we plant, every gate we open is part of that same story.
