If you’re new around here, hi! We’re Payton & Aubrey, the husband and wife behind Smith Creek Farmstead. And since we’ve had quite a few new faces lately, we thought it was about time you actually got to know the people behind all the madness.
We met when Payton was stationed in Kentucky, spent some time in Nashville, and eventually made our way down to Georgia, where he’s from. I got my degree in Agricultural Economics from UK, and when Payton isn’t doing HVAC, he’s usually building whatever wild idea I’ve come up with next.
We’re a small micro dairy operation with registered Nigerian Dwarf goats, homesteading on less than two acres alongside our chickens, most notably our Silkies, Serama, and Orpingtons.
Smith Creek Farmstead really started after covid, when we both made some pretty big changes to our diets because the food we were eating was making us feel terrible. Around the same time, we kept having reactions to the detergents and products we were using. That’s when it really clicked for us: what we put on our bodies matters just as much as what we put in them.
So I started making soap for us. No artificial fragrances, no artificial dyes, just quality oils, our own goats milk, and herbal infusions. What started as something for our own household has grown into goat milk soaps, laundry powder, solid dish soap, herbal goods, and an operation that now reaches customers online, through wholesale, and through private labeling.
When we aren’t making soap, you’ll probably find us gaming, gardening, or getting some much needed goat therapy.
We’re genuinely so thankful for every person we’ve met along the way, whether you found us through goats, chickens, gardening, a farmers market, or a bar of our soap. Every one of you has become a small part of this wild life we’re building.
And honestly, whether you ever buy a single thing from us or not, we hope SCF reminds you that you’re capable of more than you think. You don’t have to do things the way everyone else does them. Think outside the box. Learn something new. Make it yourself. Build the life you want. Be self-sufficient, be independent, and don’t be afraid to try something a little different.
We’re still figuring it all out ourselves, but we’re having a heck of a time doing it.
Thanks for sticking around, supporting us, laughing with us, and letting us share a little piece of our life with you. We’re excited to see what comes next. 🖤
