✅ Get to know him:

Dewayne is a national speaker on all things homesteading from wildcrafting to animal husbandry. He graduated from Texas A&M at Commerce and has spent a lifetime teaching and learning. Dewayne's education started at an early age with his grandfather passing on generations of knowledge such as wood skills, edible and medicinal plants, and how to hunt, fish, and live in harmony with the land and animals. Dewayne then went on to spend a short time on the Navaho Reservation learning many of the Navaho native ways.

After graduation from college he went on to manage a 52-section ranch in west Texas, then to teach Agriculture and Biology for several years. While teaching Dewayne raised sheep, horses, cattle, and grew their own hay and grain, and formulated his own livestock feed.

After retiring, Dewayne came full circle back to teaching edible and medicinal plants, and small-scale natural agriculture. In 2016, Dewayne and his wife purchased an abandoned farm. They are now in the process of building a sustainable teaching farm to pass along Dewayne's years of experience and knowledge along with new more sustainable conservation practices.

At the forefront of Red Feather Farms, you will find TexMaster meat goats, pasture chickens, honey bees, vegetable and herb gardens, an Elderberry farm, native plants, and trees utilized for food and medicine. Red Feather Farms currently has its own private-label meat and herbal business. At Red Feather Farms you will also see sustainable and conservation practices such as, rainwater catchment, waterless toilets, and garden composting, as well as numerous soil, plant, water, and other resource conservations. Dewayne's motto is "Homesteading on a Budget".
