Current Needs & Active Fundraisers

As we build a safe, land-rooted refuge for survivors, there are many practical needs you can help meet.

Some needs are simple and hands-on. Others require skilled partners or companies willing to come alongside us. Every tool, panel, animal, and service helps move this work forward.

Building Supplies & Tools

These are the everyday materials we use to build, repair, and prepare spaces for future residents.

  • Cattle panels
  • Hog panels
  • T-posts
  • Fencing staples, clips, and insulators
  • Lumber for central kitchen and rear conversion
  • Heavy-duty tarps and shade cloth
  • Work gloves, safety gear, power tools and hand tools (shovels, rakes, hoes, loppers, pruning saws)
  • Wheelbarrows and garden carts
  • Fuel cans, extension cords, and contractor buckets, propane tanks (20-100lb)

How to Give These Items

If you prefer to donate physical materials instead of funds, we’re grateful. Most of these items can be purchased locally or shipped.

To arrange pickup, delivery, or shipping, please contact us and let us know what you’d like to give. We’ll coordinate directly and keep you updated on how it’s used.

Big Asks: Skilled Trades & Service Partners

Some of our most pressing needs require skilled hands and specialized equipment. If you own a company or work in one of these trades, your partnership could help establish long-term infrastructure for this House and is tax deductible.

  • A2/A2 high producing cows to provide raw bioavailable nutrients to our healing clients
  • A2/A2 weaned heifer calves to grow and breed for milking
  • A well for our main house to accommodate usage for clients
  • Secondary well for livestock
  • Pouring approximately 500 sq ft for the commercial kitchen pad
  • Forestry mulching, brush clearing, or selective tree work
  • Kitchen, addition, and safe outdoor power
  • Install new or expand existing septic system that can safely support our full residential load

If your business is interested in tax-deductible in-kind work, we are glad to document and acknowledge your contribution through our faith-based ministry trust.

Active Fundraisers

Winter Meat Bird Fundraiser

A Practical Way to Feed Your Family and Build the House

Our first community fundraiser is simple, hands-on, and deeply meaningful: we raise a batch of pasture-raised meat birds from start to finish, and supporters can reserve a share of the harvest. Every chicken is raised on clean feed, fresh forage, and daily stewardship—processed on-site with care and integrity.

When you participate, you’re doing more than stocking your freezer. You’re helping us purchase the tools, equipment, grow-out shelters, and butchering infrastructure needed for long-term food self-sufficiency. This fundraiser fuels both our meat program and the future residents who will learn these skills as part of their healing and daily rhythms.

Your reservation helps us build the systems that will one day feed 44 people year-round. Thank you for sowing into something that nourishes bodies, restores dignity, and supports the heart of this House.

Thanksgiving Turkeys

Heritage Turkey Pre-Orders (Opening Spring 2026)

Your Thanksgiving table can help build a House of Refuge.

Heritage turkeys are one of the most meaningful fundraisers for our farm systems — not only because they produce exceptional, nutrient-dense birds, but because they help establish long-term infrastructure for the House. Our turkeys are raised slowly, on pasture, with dignity and space to roam. No confinement barns. No industrial feed. No shortcuts.

These birds take time, care, and daily work — exactly the kind of healing rhythms our residents will one day step into.

Beginning in Spring 2026, we will open reservations for a limited number of heritage turkeys. These preorder funds will help us build the dedicated systems required:

  • A protected turkey pasture
  • Brooder and early-life setup
  • Rotational grazing fencing and shade
  • On-site processing equipment and storage
  • Winter quarters for the breeding flock

Quantities will be very limited each year.

Each preorder directly supports the land-based restoration model we are building. In return, you’ll receive a Thanksgiving bird raised with integrity — a turkey that tastes like what food was meant to be.

If you’d like to be notified the moment preorders open, join the list.
