In a world where convenience often eclipses craftsmanship, Ballerina Farm offers a welcome return to intention. Nestled in the high mountain valleys of Utah, this family-run haven is not just a farm - it’s a philosophy. It is here, amid rolling pastures, clucking hens, and the rhythmic thump of kneaded dough, that Hannah and Daniel Neeleman, a husband-and-wife team, have built something truly rare: a brand that merges elegance with utility, beauty with backbone, tradition with bold entrepreneurial spirit.
The Neelemans are parents to eight children and co-founders of Ballerina Farm. Their days are defined by early mornings, shared labor, and the slow, grounded rhythms of life lived close to the earth. A former Juilliard-trained ballerina and crowned Mrs. America 2023, Hannah Neeleman brings both artistry and authenticity to everything she touches - from the farm’s flourishing business to the humble ritual of baking bread.
“I think there’s a lot of messaging out there that tells women, ‘You can’t have it all.’ You can either have a career or you can have a family. But women are incredible. Women can raise babies and build businesses.”
And so she does. Through Ballerina Farm’s thoughtfully curated collection, Hannah invites others to do the same: to build lives rich in meaning, steeped in beauty, and strengthened by sustenance.
Below, we explore the brand’s hero products - each one a quiet testament to the power of thoughtful living.

1. Farmer Protein Powder: A New Chapter in Daily Nourishment
There was the Prehistoric Era, the Middle Ages, and the Modern Age - but now, welcome to the Protein Era. Ballerina Farm’s Farmer Protein Powder ($67; $60 with subscription) is a quiet revolution in a market overrun by synthetic, forgettable offerings. Made with Calf-First Bovine Colostrum, Collagen Peptides, and Grass-Fed Whey, each serving delivers 24 grams of clean protein - without fillers or artificial ingredients.
Flavors like Creamy Chocolate, Vanilla Bean, and Maple Cinnamon transform daily fueling into a nourishing pleasure. Whether stirred into warm milk or blended into a smoothie, this powder is built for stamina, strength, and a sense of well-being that lasts far beyond the cup.
2. The Sourdough Kit: A Gateway to Tradition
There’s a reason the Sourdough Kit ($89) is one of Ballerina Farm’s most beloved offerings. It’s not just a collection of tools - it’s an invitation. An invitation to slow down, to bake from scratch, to feed your family with your hands and heart.
Inside: two wicker proofing baskets, a sourdough spatula, a bench scraper, and Hannah’s own Sourdough Booklet, a beautifully written guide to the ancient art of breadmaking. But the star of the kit is Willa, the dehydrated sourdough starter born in the Neelemans’ home kitchen, now lovingly shared with home bakers across the country.

3. The Enamel Sourdough Bowl: Beauty Meets Purpose
Proof, mix, and serve with grace. The Enamel Sourdough Bowl ($74), available in Grass Green, Sunflower Yellow, and Light Cream, is handmade in Poland by a small family business with a legacy of craftsmanship. With its wide opening and elegant depth, it’s the ideal vessel for the sourdough journey - and so much more.
From mixing salad greens to cradling just-gathered eggs, this heirloom-worthy piece proves that the tools of domestic life can be as lovely as they are functional.
For the discerning baker, ingredients matter - and none more so than the flour. Ballerina Farm’s High Protein Farm Flour ($15–$49.95) is milled in Utah using 100% organic wheat and offers a remarkable 14% protein content, essential for creating slow-rise breads with a strong gluten structure.
It’s ideal for sourdough, focaccia, and other rustic loaves that require resilience and depth of flavor. Choose from a 5 lb bag ($15), a set of three 5 lb bags ($39), or a 25 lb bag ($49.95), with subscription savings launching soon.

5. Ballerina Beef Jerky: Wholesome On-the-Go Fuel
Protein doesn’t always come with packaging you’re proud to carry. But Ballerina Farm’s Beef Jerky ($12) changes that. Made from Berkshire beef - a heritage breed known for its tenderness - and seasoned with Black Pepper & French Salt or Garlic & Herb, this jerky is both flavorful and filling.
No preservatives. No empty calories. Just high-protein sustenance that’s as at home in a child’s lunchbox as it is in a rancher’s saddlebag.

6. The Jour Apron: For the Kitchen, the Garden, and Beyond
The Jour Apron is as charming as it is functional. Available in Adult ($34) and Little Jour ($19) sizes and an array of farm-inspired colors - Grass Gingham, Radish Gingham, Denim, and Cream - each apron is made from 100% cotton and designed to move with you.
With two generous front pockets, it’s as ready for kneading dough as it is for harvesting herbs. And when mother and child wear matching sets, it becomes more than a garment - it’s a moment, stitched in cotton and memory.

7. Fruit & Veggie Beeswax Candles: A Touch of Whimsy
Few things delight quite like the Fruit & Veggie Beeswax Candles ($24–$30), each one handcrafted to resemble nature’s bounty. Sculpted from 100% pure beeswax, they are available in playful forms like Blackberries, Cherries, Asparagus and Carrot tapers, Corn on the Cob, Tomato, and Green Bell Pepper.
Designed to grace birthday cakes or adorn dinner tables, they bring an element of handcrafted charm and a wink of nostalgia. Consciously made and utterly original, they are little works of wax art-functional, fragrant, and unforgettable.

8. Ballerina Farm: A New American Legacy
Ballerina Farm is more than a business - it is a movement. A movement led by two people who believe in the value of land, labor, and legacy. Together, Hannah and Daniel Neeleman have built something extraordinary: a brand that nourishes, uplifts, and connects.
Their story speaks to a new generation of families who dream of more rooted lives - ones where children grow alongside vegetables, where business is born at the kitchen table, and where even the most functional objects can be beautiful.
