About Us

We’re Jason and Ashley Barnett, and Highland Oak Farm is the result of a long-held dream.  One shaped by a desire to slow down, grow what we eat, and build something lasting together. 

After 18 years of marriage, 3 kids, (and nearly as long imagining this life), we finally found our place here in Lynchburg, Ohio.  It's a place that's a little wild around the edges, full of purpose, and rooted in the kind of work that fills your hands and quiets your mind. This farm is our response to a world that moves too fast and takes too much. Here, we raise animals with care, grow food that nourishes, and make space for rest—both ours and yours.

It’s not always tidy. Our days are full and our to-do list never ends. But we love it. We’re building a life that feels more like home every season, and we’re so glad you’ve found your way here.

Highland Oak Farm isn’t just a patch of land. It’s our long-awaited yes to slowing down, growing what we eat, and creating a place that feels like home for us, for our kids, for the animals, and for the friends who find their way here.

We believe in early mornings (well, at least Jason does), honest work, real food, and conversations that stretch long into the evening. We raise our animals with care, grow what we can, and are building a business that reflects what we value: simplicity, sustainability, and joy.

Whether you're picking up fresh milk, wandering through our garden rows, or just stopping by to breathe a little deeper—we’re glad you’re here.
