About The Forest Farmery
We’re Sarah and Andrew and The Forest Farmery is our small, family-run farm nestled in the forested foothills of California’s gold country where sustainability, creativity, and a deep love for nature all come together.
Our journey began in the suburbs with a decently sized backyard garden and a big dream of self-sufficiency. That dream grew into Quinn’s Quails, where we raise and sell coturnix quails and eggs to local restaurants, grocers, and local families. As our dreams expanded, our hearts yearned for something greater. So in the Spring of 2024 we made the leap to a 10.5-acre forest property - and The Forest Farmery was born.
Here, we raise a dairy cow, dairy goats, chickens, quails, honey bees, English Angora rabbits and 3 wild (and slighlty feral) children with love and care. We tend to a mature fruit tree orchard, and grow plants for eating and crafting. Our days are filled with milking, collecting eggs, painting, gardening, crafting, and foraging the land itself. We raise and handmake everything from raw wool and natural pigments to farm-crafted salves and seasonal baked goods.
At The Forest Farmery, we believe in sustainability, thoughtful farming, and creating goods that connect people to the magic of nature. Whether you're here for a jar of jam, a tuft of Angora wool, or just a glimpse of forest life - we’re so glad you found us.
