Allison Holmes

Wife to Josh of 7 years and have one cat, one puppy, many chickens, and more animals to come! I enjoy sunrises, writing music, the infrared suana, binging baking shows, and baking of course!  As a licensed esthetician with a specialty in skin therapy, I’ve always had a passion for health and wellness. But working from the outside in only got me and my clients so far.

Over my health journey recovering from mold illness, skin conditions, chronic infections, and other issues, I’ve learned to prioritize working from the inside out. I started evaluating my lifestyle and realized not only did I need a change but saw a need in the community for a source of quality nutrition from farm to table. After prayer and feeling tug after tug from the Holy Spirit, I quit my 9-5 job and started a microfarm and microbakery  “The Holmestead”.  Now I want to help others with my products.   By 2024, I was able to have my husband join the team.  ❤️

After teaching for years and transitioning to sales, I decided to quit the corporate world to help Allison now that business was really picking up.

I’ve taken over the “growing” department but also assist in cottage baked good production. I have plans to grow more produce currently in progress and can’t wait to tell you more when that’s fully up and running.

I enjoy playing bass guitar and video games on PC in my spare time.  I routinely look forward to nighly walks with my Corgi, Watson and am a total night owl. If someone is responding to your messages at 4 AM it’s likely Allison up preparing orders for the day. 🤣 Allison is gifted in the administrative, organizational side of things, and I’m the laid back, work with my hands kind-of-guy.
