The Harvest Table

Holistic Remedies & Homestead Provisions from Our Hearth to Yours


The Ministry of Our Hands

The Harvest Table is where it all began—the quiet, faithful work of our hands, trusting God to multiply seeds, herbs, and honey into provision for our family and our community. For years, this has been a donation-based ministry, a tangible expression of our belief that care for the body is a sacred act.

As we step into a new season of stewarding all God has given us—our skills, our time, and our homestead’s bounty—we are transitioning to a model of "Sustenance Pricing." This allows us to sustain this work for generations, while holding fast to our covenant of generosity. Every product you find here is still made prayerfully, by our family, from ingredients we grow, forage, or source with deep intention.


Our "Sustenance Pricing" Philosophy

We believe in fair exchange—it honors the creator, the creation, and the recipient. Our new pricing reflects the true cost of quality materials, careful preparation, and dedicated labor.

But our heart for ministry has not changed. It has simply been structured for sustainability.

Here’s how it works:

· Sustenance Price: This is the fair value price listed for each product.
· The Community Sustenance Fund: A portion of every sale is set aside in this fund.
· Your Choice at payment time..

When you purchase, you can:
  1. Pay the Sustenance Price—(knowing you’re supporting our family and the fund)
  2. Respond your Sliding Scale Code—*if you are in a season of genuine need*
(codes available by confidential request).
  3. Add a "Blessing Bag"—pay for an extra product that goes directly into the fund, to be given at no cost to someone in crisis.

This creates a cycle of dignified giving and receiving, allowing us to say "yes" to generosity from a place of abundance, not depletion.
