What Steadfast Family Farm Inc does
Mission
Steadfast Family Farm provides a place where Joy, Peace, and Empowerment can be experienced by all who desire to grow in the fullness of life, Belonging in Christ. Steadfast was established in a spirit of thankfulness with a desire to share the gift of animals and farm life.
As stated on its FY2024 Form 990.
Program
Apprentices partner with a Journeyman/mentor, working, learning, and resting at the farm while discovering together metaphors that demonstrate fullness in daily living and for growing in relationship with God. We, as a ministry team, are ourselves, intentionally maturing in Christ. When guests arrive at Steadfast they experience Jesus, evidenced by a culture of Joy, Peace, Empowerment, and Belonging. These values are at the center of everything we do. Guests are greeted in joy, they are valued, and this is a place where they can trust to lay down their guard, experience peace, and discover empowerment for life beyond their time here. They find a place where they belong and rather than guests, they become family.

The organization over time
Each line starts at 100 in 2018, so what you read is the shape rather than the size: 150 means half as much again as 2018, 50 means half. The number beside each label in the key is where it ended. The shaded band is where the middle 50% of its peers' revenue would sit, given their growth.
Balance sheet
Total assets and total liabilities at each year end, in dollars. The largest one-year move in total assets was 2022 to 2023, from $74k to $215k (+189%).
How it's funded, over time
Each bar is one year's revenue split into where it came from, and every bar is the same height — these are shares, not amounts, so a year that raised twice as much looks the same size. Hover a bar for the split.
Government-grant reliance: 2024 18%. Grants only. Government contracts and fees sit inside program revenue.
88% of Steadfast Family Farm Inc’s revenue is contributions — about as donation-reliant as the typical peer (100% for the typical peer).
Surplus & reserves
Operating surplus or deficit each year, and months of liquidity in hand. 3 of the last 7 reported years ran a deficit.

In-state vs out-of-state, by year
Funder states come from each funder’s own filing. $121 arriving through sponsors registered in 1 state is excluded from the map and the split above: a sponsor holds money on a donor’s behalf, so its registered address would place those dollars somewhere no donor need ever have been. Trends are read to FY2023, the last fiscal year that has finished arriving. FY2024–FY2026 are still being filed and are shown unshaded; they do not move any figure on this page.
