Rev. John & Janie Wallace
Located in the heart of the  Endless Mountains Region of northeastern Pennsylvania, the Wallace Homestead
Farm is a welcome retreat and respite from the grind of modern life. Nestled amid the serenity of rolling
mountain farmland of
 Sullivan & Bradford Counties our family, friends and visitors enjoy their farm life
experiences during their visits and retreats to our farm.
Visitors enjoy  weekend summer visits and participate in farm chores providing the children with a taste of
country life. Family, friends, and visitors have traveled from as far as
South Korea for visits and to experience
farm life.  Our cattle are all tame and love the attention.
Springtime is a time of new growth and newborns.  Janie brings in a newborn Hereford calf during an early spring
snow as the calf's mother follows.  Miles, a Hereford bull calf enjoys the springtime sun. The morning sun greets
Faith, one of our Herefords, and her newborn calf a Hereford & Angus cross heifer.  Most of our calving is in the
early spring but new arrivals come throughout the year.  
All of our crops are organically grown without any artificial
fertilizers or insecticide and herbicide sprays. We use a vintage
1940 Farmall H tractor to cultivate the field.  Even though the
Farmall H is an antique classic tractor it still has to earn its keep
on the farm. In the right picture, Janie is weeding in our organic
garden which supplies our family and visitors with fresh
wholesome vegetables.  
Hay grown on our farm consisting of Timothy, Alfalfa, Red Clover and Orchid grass is the primary winter diet of our
cattle.  Janie rakes a first cutting of Timothy as some late timothy hay is baled and in the far right picture alfalfa is
ready to unload from the automatic bale wagon into the hay mow.  
Wildlife abounds in the mountain farmlands of Bradford and Sullivan Counties.  Whitetail deer frequently pay us a
visit browsing in our front and back yards most every evening.  In the center picture,  a newborn fawn found along
one of our fence rows awaits its mother to return from foraging in the woods.  Pictured far right is Rascal, the
raccoon, making his daily raid on the cats food.
Winters in the Endless Mountains region are long but enjoyable providing extra time for rest, reflexion, and planning for
the new year to come.  Cross country skiing, snowmobiling, ice skating, sledding & tobogganing , and hunting sports
are favorite activities to the past time away.  With rest and recreation also comes daily chores of tending to the winter
herd and performing maintenance on buildings and equipment.
