from little acorns mighty oaks do grow
OUR STORY
New roots in a new Country
Hancox Homestead was established in 2001 after my husband and I decided to take a life gamble, upped sticks from England and as they say 'the rest is history'.
In our time here we learnt to adapt from postage stamp living to acreage living. With our two border collies Buster and Douglas in toe, we embarked on what was really blind optimism, hope and a whole lot of guess work.
​
Our adventure has seen us recreate how we thought, how we lived and today we are still evolving. We have educated ourselves on Canadian wildlife, woodlot management, environmental studies and equine/animal sciences to name a few.
We are a small family creating a whole new branch of our family tree, we are ‘The Canadian Crew’. We are trying to live our best life and make the most of our Homestead.

ABOUT HANCOX HOMESTEAD
Nestled in majestic woodland near Dutton, ON, our Homestead offers a quiet retreat to meander our trails on horse back, incorporate fun and exercise with goat yoga. Meet out animals or peruse our handmade/homegrown market. We host many events including local businesses joining us and try to keep our page updated daily.
​
With our passion for Heritage/Rare breed livestock, we work to continue the quality and commitment of keeping these breeds relevant. We offer a variety of these breeds for sale from time to time.
​
Our Homestead tries to be as organic as possible with our products from growing our own hay for our livestock to our Earth friendly packaging on our handmade products. We strive to bring the best.
