Together, Shaun & Lorrie Conway operate Conway Family Farms, LLC.  Lorrie combines a unique set of skills with her education in Business and Management and her lifetime of active farming.  Shaun provides unique perspectives in farm planning and infrastructure design. As a multi-generational farm family, Lorrie was raised on a beef cattle production operation and began with dairy goats and sheep in 1974, which Shaun & Lorrie continue to raise and utilize in their  own operation today.  In addition to the farm, Lorrie has operated a Business Management and Accounting practice for more than 26 years offering a wide variety of business services including business organization, operational changes, business planning, accounting systems set-up and design, crisis management/damage control and tax services.  Lorrie's infectious enthusiasm about farming and decades of business expertise have provided opportunities for speaking engagements to groups of all sizes and on a myriad of topics related to small-scale farming, marketing, and business management.  In addition to speaking engagements,   Conway Family Farms, LLC will offer consulting for individuals with specific needs for their farming operation.

We are always happy to share our successes (and failures) with others in an effort to encourage small farming.  Although we do not claim to have all the answers, we can say, with confidence, that we experts at what we do; however, what we do is constantly evolving and changing in an effort to improve.

We make every effort to be completely transparent about our operation to provide an accurate picture of what costs and demands are involved at our farm.  No question is too personal.

Because time is at a premium and experience is valuable, mentoring, consulting and speaking engagements will be at a cost to those benefiting. Please contact the farm to discuss your individual needs and  inquire about costs for these services.
