At Living Heritage Farm we work for a king. In fact he is the king of all kings. He owns everything we have: our farm, our equipment, our animals, our home, our time, and our very lives. He has graciously permitted us to be stewards of what he has given us. Our king has a vision and a mission statement and we are doing our best to align our farm with his. He is a good king. He very generous, kind, gracious, and loving. We are honored to be under his sovereign hand.
As such, our purpose isn't simply to provide a comfortable country life for our family, pad our pocketbook, or build up a healthy retirement fund. Instead it is to share our farm with others. Right now we aren't certain what dimensions this may take, but it could include things such as teaming with food banks and homeless shelters, mentoring youth and summer interning farmers, and/or demonstrating and giving context to agricultural principles from the Bible.
We want to share a substantial amount of profits we receive with those in need. We may do something like a 50/50 match for consumer purchases. Like we say, because we are still early in our company and we haven't yet sold a product, we don't know exactly what this will look like. But, please know our heart and our intentions We are working for king Jesus and this will be evident in the quality of our product, our stewardship of the land and animals, and our care for the customer.
