Director & Host Family

Since moving to Shady Creek Farm in 2014, Zach and Jordyn have had a passion for raising nutrient dense, naturally healthy food -- but they have had an even greater passion for raising up people. They have added seven kids to the family via adoption and foster care, and their farm has been able to offer work, a place to stay, and a mentoring opportunity to people in transition or crisis. When they met the Rockside team in 2021, they knew it was a God-ordained partnership with people who had the same heart and mission. They are thrilled to be directors for Rockside Ranch Great Lakes.
