💔 My heart hurts this morning. Our sweet Big Bertha froze overnight, and the coop feels so empty without her. She wasn’t just a chicken, she was family. She’d follow us around like one of the cats, always curious, always wanting to be part of whatever we were doing.

Bertha had this funny, gentle soul that could make you smile even on the hardest days. She’d talk back when you talked to her, waddle up for treats, and had a way of reminding us what simple love looked like.

Losing her feels heavier than I expected, but that’s what happens when something so small has such a big place in your heart. Rest easy, Big Bertha. You’ll always be part of this farm and this family.

Happy puppy

I may not have brought him into this world, but he’s brought so much light into mine. 💙

Love doesn’t always start in the delivery room, sometimes it begins with a choice. A choice to show up, to care, to guide, and to love someone as your own. And that’s exactly what I’ve done, because from the moment he became part of my world, he had my heart.

He may not have given me stretch marks, but he’s definitely been responsible for a few gray hairs 😂 and I wouldn’t trade a single one of them. Watching him grow, find his way, and now start his very first job fills me with so much pride.
He’s strong, smart, and capable, everything I always knew he could be. And I’ll always be in his corner, cheering the loudest, loving the hardest, and standing proudest.

Because family isn’t just who you’re born to, it’s who you love through every moment, every milestone, every step. 💙

We’re all a little f*cked up, that’s what makes us real.
The difference is, I stopped hiding it and started using it. Every scar, every mistake, every lesson built the woman I am today.
You don’t grow by pretending, you grow by owning your truth and rising from it.

Unstoppable. Unfiltered. Unapologetic.

🎉💖✨ HAPPY 10TH BIRTHDAY TO OUR GIRL, THE ONE AND ONLY ARIYANA! ✨💖🎉

Double digits, baby!! 💅 You are growing into the most beautiful, kind, sassy, smart, and unstoppable young queen we know. 👑 We are so proud of the heart you have, the way you love, laugh, and light up every room (and sometimes boss us all around just a little 😏).

You are surrounded by a whole tribe that adores you, your family, this farm, and yes… every single one of us, even the ones with fur and feathers (and no, we’re not talking about your brother 🐔😂).

Because at the end of the day, what really matters isn’t who shows up just for the party it’s who’s there for you every single day. 💗 And Ariyana, you’ve got a family who loves you big, stands beside you always, and cheers for you louder than anyone else ever could.

So here’s to you.....the sparkle in our days, the laughter in our chaos, and the heart of this whole wild family.
We love you to the moon, the stars, and every muddy boot print in between.

We've Been Building Lab Heaven Since 2017

Before 2025, we had already acquired our distillery equipment, bottling line, and the land that would become home to our dream Anderson Family Farms and Distillery Distillery. With overwhelming community support, we helped change laws and ordinances, became a certified USDA farm, and built something truly special from the ground up.

Everything was on track, until the tides shifted. But through it all, we’ve stayed true to our values: standing up for what’s right, using our voice for those who need it most, and staying on the right side of history.
Now, so many of you have asked how you can help us cross that final stretch, and we have an idea.

We’re seeking 250 supporters to purchase a beautiful, handcrafted Oak Whiskey Glass Coaster Set for $150.
As a heartfelt thank-you, each supporter will receive a limited-edition, single-barrel, 117 proof Lab Heaven Applewood-Finished Rye Bourbon, numbered, signed, and unlike anything we’ve released before.

Only 250 bottles will ever exist.

If this sounds like something you’d like to be part of, to help us finish what we started and be a part of Lab Heaven’s legacy please share this post and send us a DM for more details.

Thank you, from the bottom of our hearts,
Roy E. Anderson Jr.

Happy Birthday to the strongest, most beautiful woman I know my mom. 💛

You faced life with courage, fire, and love that could move mountains. As a young single mom, you worked endlessly, sacrificed everything, and somehow still gave me the warmth, laughter, and security every child deserves.
You never let me hang my head low. You taught me to walk tall, to speak my truth, and to believe that I could survive anything, because I watched you do it.

You didn’t just raise a daughter, you raised a powerhouse. Every ounce of strength, every spark of determination in me came from the example you set.

I love you bigger, bigger much. You are my hero, my heart, and the reason I know what real love and real strength look like.
