Why I Started Credence Farms
Food should come with a face, a farm, and a standard.
A Personal Mission
My name is Todd Hogan, and I started Credence Farms because I believe people deserve to know where their food comes from.
Over time, food has become disconnected from the people who produce it. Labels have become more complicated, supply chains have become longer, and consumers have fewer opportunities than ever to understand who raised their food and how it was produced.
The more I learned about agriculture, farming practices, and food production, the more I realized that trust was disappearing from the system. Consumers wanted transparency. Farmers wanted recognition for doing things the right way. Yet those two groups rarely had a direct connection.
Credence Farms was created to rebuild that connection.
What Credence Means
The word "Credence" means belief, trust, and confidence.
Those values became the foundation of everything we built. We wanted to create a company that helps families trust the food they bring home and helps farmers receive recognition for the work they do every day.
We believe trust should be earned through transparency, stewardship, and accountability.
Healthy Soil. Healthy Food. Healthy People.
Everything begins with soil.
Healthy soil supports diverse forage. Better forage supports healthier animals. Healthier animals help produce better food for families.
This simple relationship drives every decision we make. It is why we focus on regenerative-minded farming practices, responsible stewardship, animal welfare, and long-term sustainability.
Know Your Farmer
We believe consumers should know who raises their food and understand the standards behind it.
Transparency
No marketing buzzwords. No hidden sourcing. Just honest information and clear standards.
Stewardship
Leave the land better than we found it while producing exceptional food.
"We're not just selling beef. We're rebuilding trust in the food system."
More Than Meat
While we are passionate about producing and sourcing exceptional beef, Credence Farms has always been about something larger.
It's about supporting family farms.
It's about helping consumers make informed choices.
It's about rewarding stewardship and responsible agriculture.
And it's about ensuring future generations inherit healthier land than we started with.
