What We Do
Whether you're looking for a well-bred Australian Shepherd puppy, a freezer full of pasture-raised pork, or a whole lamb share — Queen City Farm serves families across OH and the broader Cincinnati / Northern Kentucky region.
Health-tested, well-socialized, purpose-bred Australian Shepherds — OFA, CAER, Embark and UC Davis paneled. We title our dogs in AKC and UKC conformation, FastCAT, and trick dog. Many of our puppies have gone home to Dayton-area families.
Pasture-raised pork — our hogs root and forage in wooded paddocks, raised without routine antibiotics or hormones. Whole and half hog shares with all-in pricing (processing, smoking, and packaging included), with farm pickup or farmers market pickup convenient to Dayton families.
Grass-finished, rotationally grazed lamb — mild, clean, and beautifully butchered. Whole and half lamb shares with all-in pricing, plus optional organ meat and soup bones for raw-feeding Dayton-area dog owners.
Every Australian Shepherd in our breeding program is OFA-tested for hips and elbows, CAER eye certified, and DNA panel through Embark and UC Davis. Every hog and lamb is raised without routine antibiotics or hormones, processed at a small USDA-inspected facility, and traceable back to the paddock it came from. Health and honesty aren't optional here.
