A Little Bit About The Owner 

Hi, I'm Makayla, the owner and heart behind MeansFarmsLLC. At 25, I'm pursuing my veterinary degree — a path shaped by my lifelong passion for animals and a deep respect for their care and wellbeing.

My journey hasn't been a straight line. Born with MSUD, an extremely rare metabolic disorder, I spent my first 16 years on a strict diet to protect my health. At 16, I received a life-saving liver transplant that changed everything. That experience taught me resilience, gratitude, and the profound importance of quality nutrition — lessons that now guide how I raise and care for every animal on this farm.

Beyond the farm, I'm happiest outdoors. Fishing and hunting with my dad have been a cherished tradition since childhood — a bond built on patience, respect for nature, and honest work. I also love gardening, watching something grow from a tiny seed into life. That same magic happens here at the farm every single day.

Everything I do at MeansFarmsLLC comes from this place: a commitment to raising animals with integrity, building community, and honoring the land that sustains us all.
