Putting down roots
FFF began when we bought our property and started building the farm dream from scratch. The early days included a big garden, canning, herbs, berries, rhubarb, chicks, and a small coop.
Ben & Christina Fenstermaker
A family-run farm in Marysville, OH, built around faith, practical homesteading, and caring for the land and animals well.
About us
Fenstermaker Family Farm
Hello! We are Ben and Christina Fenstermaker, owners and founders of Fenstermaker Family Farm.
Our farm started from a family homestead dream and grew into a way to offer trusted food, herbal goods, sourdough, and natural bodycare products to the people around us.
Our story
From homestead dream to family farm
Growing
Food, herbs, and handmade goods
As our family focused more on homesteading, we added broilers and turkeys, expanded the garden, made sourdough and other goods from scratch, and began creating herbal and natural bodycare products.
Foundation
Grounded in Faith. Cultivating Ethically. Healing with Nature.
Ephesians 6:10-18 became an important foundation for the farm and helped shape the guiding principles behind the work we do.
Today
Serving our local community
As friends and family asked for trustworthy food and simple handmade products, the homestead grew into Fenstermaker Family Farm.
