Hello, we're the Livermans

PLĒSION FARM · OUR STORY

C & I both grew up rural, in small towns in the Texas Hill Country where life included livestock, land and hard work. No one had to teach us where our food came from, that land requires tending, or that a table set with intention is the heartbeat of a good meal. It's just how we grew up.

We left, the way most people do. We built careers, started a family, and lived across the country while C served a combined 20 years as an Army Green Beret and in law enforcement. But we always knew we wanted to give our kids the experiences we had growing up - so we set a dream early on and slowly started building towards it. No one handed us land, and we have had to figure out a lot on our own. Success has not come overnight and we've made countless sacrifices to get where we are today, but it's been 100% worth years of grit, determination and hard work.

Today we raise grass-fed cattle, Dorper sheep and performance horses in the high desert of Eastern Oregon. Our food is made from scratch, our home is one we're slowly making our own, and we are constantly juggling a list of projects while learning as we go. Our girls, 9 and 11, have become their daddy's right hands, and our toddler, Lohn, is his little shadow, right in the middle of everything he does.

Plēsion (play-see-on) is a Greek word meaning "neighbor" or "one who is close by." We named our farm after it because that's who we hope to be: good neighbors. A place where our kids grow up in the middle of the work, where we know exactly where our food comes from, and where we take care of the land and the community around us.

If this is a dream of yours too, we hope our story shows you it's still possible to build a family farm from scratch. Welcome to Plēsion. We're so glad you're here.
