The story of Kraut Creek Feed Company really begins in the dusty fields and humble barns of Jason Garber’s childhood. Growing up on his family’s farm, Jason learned early the importance of knowing where food comes from—tending chickens, hogs, cattle, and rabbits before and after school was simply part of life.
Yet his path was not always fixed toward animal nutrition. After years helping run the family trucking business—eventually rising to Director of Maintenance—Jason and his wife, Jody, felt a pull back to the land. They purchased a pasture farm, where Jason’s passion for grass-based farming and nutrient-dense food really took root.
As he shifted his focus toward producing wholesome, grass-fed and pastured meats, Jason ran into two glaring gaps in the industry: feed suppliers that truly aligned with regenerative values, and local slaughter facilities equipped to handle like-minded producers. When the slaughter plant he relied on went up for sale, Jason and his brother stepped in to purchase and run it.
Still, the feed challenge remained. Jason saw firsthand how many feeds used subpar, genetically modified, or chemically treated ingredients—compromising animal health and the integrity of food systems. He resolved to build something better. From that conviction, Kraut Creek was born, with Jason dedicating himself full-time to producing premium non-GMO feed formulations.
Today, Kraut Creek’s mission centers on a simple but powerful promise: to provide high-quality, non-GMO livestock nutrition and trusted farm supplies to farmers and homesteaders across the country. Through innovation, rigorous product standards, and industry-leading customer service, Kraut Creek strives to make clean, nutrient-dense products accessible to all livestock producers.
For Jason, it’s deeply personal—not just business. He, Jody, and their six children live on their farm, raising sheep, grass-fed cattle, chickens, and Berkshire hogs. Their life is rooted not only in soils and animals, but in community, faith, and stewardship.
In every bag of feed and every conversation with a customer, Kraut Creek carries forward Jason’s early lessons: food matters, trust matters, and the way we care for our animals and land is inseparable from how we care for one another.
