About Openherd

Openherd exists to support the success of the family farm by providing easy, affordable online marketing tools, all under one roof.

Openherd is unique because our easy-to-use system is built specifically for farmers to give them the tools they need to effectively market their animals and products online, and with the amazing customer support you thought was a thing of the past.

Successful farms have their own websites. But getting a website up and running can involve high costs, slow development, and frustrating editing—or paying a hard-to-reach web person to do it for you.

We've made things easy because we understand farmers and provide the tools and help you need to get set up and grow your revenue while you get on with the things you love.

Our system not only includes an amazing custom website as the heart of your marketing (Social media is a great place to find customers but not a great place to send them!) but also inclusion on our National Marketplace that brings qualified customers to your website so you don't have to wait years to build up your own search engine traffic.

Openherd has been serving family farms since 2007 and has helped thousands of farms "get over the hump" in their online marketing by helping them sell the things they love creating, so they can live free of the 9-5!

Openherd - Beautiful websites designed for farms

Openherd - Find farms across the US and Canada

We believe every farm should be able to promote themselves easily, effectively, and affordably.

If you're tired of expensive, complicated marketing that lacks results, then give Openherd a try today!

Drop-In Knit and Crochet Group

Join us every Saturday for our weekly FREE Drop-In Knitting & Crocheting Group. Experienced or novice, our easy chairs are a great place to meet other needlecrafters, ask questions, get hints on how-to with needles or hooks. MaryJane is full of suggestions for finding help in this group or on YouTube. We can help left-handers learn how to knit and crochet. HINT: Use a mirror so a leftie can see in reverse what a rightie is stitching. Or check out YouTube videos especially for lefties. Come in. Find a comfy seat. Fix yourself a cup of tea or instant coffee. Then sit back, relax and share some creative time with others. You can bring your own supplies. There’s no requirement to buy our yarns. We look forward to seeing you on Saturday! #creative #sacredacresfarm #knitting #crocheting #free #saturday

Heat Advisory

With the extreme heat we have been experiencing, we feel it advisable to restrict alpaca walking to days when the temperature and heat index combined are less than 90°. On extreme heat days our alpacas choose to remain in their barns where the fans are or hang out in shady areas. We also hose their legs and bellies to help cool them down. If you have scheduled a tour and walk on a day of extreme heat, please call or text us at (703) 945-0766 to check on your reservation. If you wish to cancel the tour due to high heat, we will gladly reschedule your tour or refund your registration fee. We apologize for any inconvenience this may cause you. The safety and well-being of our alpacas is our prime concern during this hot summer. Thank you for your understanding.
