Our Story

Faith. Stewardship. A Harvest That Lasts.

Two Talents Farm was founded with a simple purpose: to faithfully use what God has entrusted to us.

Inspired by the Parable of the Talents in Matthew 25:14–30, we believe the land, animals, time, and resources we have been given are gifts to be cared for with purpose. Our goal is to build something that provides for our family, serves others, honors God, and leaves a legacy for generations to come.

Our farm is just North of Battle Creek in Barry County

Our Dexter Herd

We are currently building our herd of Dexter cattle, a smaller heritage breed known for producing quality beef while being well suited to a grass-based farm.

We're starting small and growing intentionally, with a focus on healthy cattle, responsible stewardship, and quality over quantity.

We expect to begin offering Dexter calves in 2027, followed by farm-raised beef beginning in 2029 as our herd matures.

This is only the beginning of Two Talents Farm, and we're excited to see what grows from here.

Good land. Good cattle. A Harvest That Lasts.

As our Dexter herd grows, we hope to provide quality cattle and beef for:

  • 4-H & Youth Projects — Dexter cattle can be a great option for young people looking to learn responsibility, animal care, and showmanship.

  • New & Growing Farms — Quality calves and breeding stock for families looking to start or expand their own Dexter herd.

  • Homesteaders & Small Acreage Farms — A smaller cattle breed well suited for families who want to raise their own livestock and become more self-sufficient.

  • Families Looking for Local Beef — Farm-raised beef for those who want to know where their food comes from and the people who raised it.

  • Freezer Beef Customers — Whole, half, and potentially quarter-beef options as our herd grows.

Calves planned for 2027 • Farm-raised beef planned for 2029

At Two Talents Farm, we're not simply raising cattle. We're working to build something useful, sustainable, and worth passing on—

A Harvest That Lasts.
