Faith-Rooted. Family-Centered.
Farm-Raised.
Welcome to Rafter 8 Market Farm! Where we believe farming is more than food, it’s a way of cultivating community, connection, and Kingdom purpose. Nestled in the heart of Slocum, Texas, our farm is a living testimony of God’s provision, offering nutrient-dense, pasture-raised pork and poultry, fresh eggs, seasonal vegetables, and hands-on farm events.
Here, every harvest tells a story of stewardship, care for creation, and the goodness of gathering around the table.
Whether you’re here to shop our pasture-raised meats and produce or join us for an authentic on farm experience, you are welcomed at Rafter 8. Our farm products are always seasonal and small-batch, which means they go fast, so don’t wait to be part of what God is growing here.
