Serving Indiana
Queen City Farm is a 50-acre working farm in Falmouth, Kentucky — just south of Cincinnati, an easy I-74 East drive from Indiana. We're a health-testing Australian Shepherd breeder placing puppies with families across Indiana.
Whether it's a puppy being raised inside our home or a hog rooting through our forest paddock, every animal at Queen City Farm is raised with welfare, transparency, and respect. Low-stress handling, no shortcuts — and you can come see it for yourself.
What We Do
Whether you're looking for a well-bred Australian Shepherd puppy, a freezer full of pasture-raised pork or chicken, or a whole lamb share — Queen City Farm serves Indiana families across the state.
Health-tested, well-socialized, AKC-registered Australian Shepherds — OFA hips and elbows, CAER eye-certified by a board-certified veterinary ophthalmologist, and full genetic panels through Embark and UC Davis. Indiana families have been part of our placements from the start.
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 Indiana families.
Pasture-raised chicken — birds rotate on fresh grass in mobile shelters, raised without routine antibiotics or hormones. Whole birds and chicken shares available for Indiana families — reach out for current availability.
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 Indiana dog owners.

Families from Lafayette, Muncie, Terre Haute, Gary, and the rest of Indiana are welcome too — many turn pickup day into a longer trip through Cincinnati or Northern Kentucky.
Every Australian Shepherd in our breeding program is OFA-tested for hips and elbows, CAER eye certified by a board-certified veterinary ophthalmologist, and DNA paneled 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.

No middlemen, no marketplaces, no mystery. You buy directly from the people who raised the dog — and you can come walk the farm to see it for yourself.

Indiana FAQ
Yes. Queen City Farm is based in Falmouth, Kentucky — about 30 miles south of Cincinnati — and we work with Indiana families regularly, including buyers from Indianapolis, Bloomington, Fort Wayne, Lafayette, Evansville, and beyond. We're one of the most convenient health-testing Aussie breeders for southern and central Indiana in particular.
We're about 2.5 hours (roughly 130 miles) from Indianapolis via I-74 East. Bloomington and Lafayette families generally make a full day of it, while Fort Wayne, South Bend, and Evansville families often turn pickup into a weekend trip through Cincinnati or Northern Kentucky.
Yes — we place puppies with Indiana families from every litter. The best way to see what's available now or coming up is our available puppies page. We breed a small number of carefully planned litters per year, so families typically apply ahead of time and reserve a spot for an upcoming litter.
No. Every puppy is met by their family in person at the farm — it's an important part of how we transition puppies into their new homes. The drive from most of Indiana is reasonable for an in-person pickup, and many families make it part of a fun day.
Because the breeder you choose shapes the dog you live with for the next 12 plus years. Full health testing, titled parents, and on-farm socialization aren't standard everywhere. Many of our Indiana families say they wish they had come to us first.
No. Those are marketing labels, not real breeds. The only AKC-recognized smaller breed in the Aussie family is the Miniature American Shepherd, which is a separate breed entirely. We breed AKC-registered Australian Shepherds.
Yes. We welcome serious buyers to come walk the farm, meet our dogs, and see how puppies are raised. Reach out through our contact form to schedule a visit, or follow us on social for occasional open farm days.
