About Gnomestead Farms
Where we came from and why
Our farm was founded in 2014 by Naomi Thompson & her husband Gideon & her 2 kids Morgan & Drake.We started in our apartment with 3 female rabbits & a buck to produce quality, inexpensive meat for our family. We soon had folks asking us to sell them meat rabbits for themselves and the business began. At that time it was just a hobby, selling rabbits to pay for costs. But we soon found an acreage of 4+ acres. From there we began creating the Gnomish Giant meat rabbit. A dream to create beautiful hides, fast meat growth and a better body type to allow a better distribution of meat on each rabbit. What we also developed by selective breeding is a unique marbling of white and dark meat which all other rabbits are a white only meat. This offers a fantastic variety like eating chicken or Turkey. Great for the entire family. Join us on our way to the finish line with an entirely new and amazing meat rabbit. The temperament is calm and easy going making them great as pets as well. We have been featured in an online e-zine on Raising-rabbits.com. You can read it here https://www.raising-rabbits.com/gnomish-giant-rabbits.html
We also have been featured in a podcast byA tiny homestead. Her podcast can be found at LewisMary’s.podbean.com/e/gnomestead-farms-llc. Our two tv interviews can be watched at https://www.kaaltv.com/news/top-news/luke-bryan-advocates-for-local-farmer-food-and-health-access/ and the last one Farm connections 1611 on KSMQ public television https://watch.ksmq.org/video/gnomestead-farms-stu-lourey-nitrate-testing-slumd8/ . We are now working on adding a classroom to our farm in Lyle, now upgraded to a full 5 acres where we also have chickens, ducks, goats all raised as naturally as possible. We also occasionally breed Maine coon cross kittens. Our son Drake got his cottage foods permit in 2021 when he was only 14 His love for baking took him to college at Mankato South Central college at age 15 for culinary arts AAS. He continues to run his own cottage food practice under U~bakery, the desire to bring UBE & gluten free/keto baked goods to the local community. rabbit farming farm fresh meat
