R & D Farms is owned and operated by Ron & DeLila Creak. With the help from my kids, Jessyca and Caleb, we make this very busy operation work. There’s never a dull moment around here. But we have found that with God, all things are possible and through His guidance and strength, we can persevere.

Here at R & D Farms, you’ll find a mix of things to look at. You’ll discover what it’s like on our journey through life, along with what’s happening with our family, our pets, but most importantly about our walk with God.

You can check out our Saint Bernard dogs at the “Here Come The Saints” link. Learn about each one individually, and how they interact as a family pack. And yes we love our dogs so much, that we think everyone should own a Saint Bernard at least once in their life. So we breed them. If you are interested in adopting an adorable puppy from one of our litters, check out the “Here Come The Puppies” link. If we have any puppies available, all the details will be on that page. You’ll also find information related to the Saint Bernard breed, answers to common questions, reviews from people who have adopted our puppies, and more.

R & D Creations shows my artistic and creative abilities. I try to bring life to things I design or the furniture I repurpose. All the arts & crafts are handmade by me. And of course, I’ll be creating things for animal lovers like ourselves. Check out what I have available for sale at the “R & D Creations” link.

And before you leave, take a moment and hang out on our porch. For generations, people have done the most sincerest talking, the heartiest laughing, the deepest thinking, and the richest reminiscing, all on their porch. Front or back porch, it didn’t matter. Watch the sunrise or the sunset. Pull up a rocking chair, sit on the porch swing, sit back and enjoy. We keep that tradition going here on the farm. But instead of keeping it all to ourselves, I decided to share some of it with you through my blog. To read what’s going on here on the farm, about our walk with God, and about some of our thoughts on this journey through life, please click on the “Porch Talk” link.

In addition to the blog, I will be writing Bible studies to share thoughts and my understanding of what the scriptures are saying to me. If you’d like to join me on going deeper into your studies, please click on the “Porch Studies” link. And lastly, there’s “Porch Posts.” This is where I share posts on Facebook that include scriptures, sermon videos, and other uplifting messages. To learn more information about it, please click on the link.

Be sure with each link above, that you click on the “Main Menu” itself and read it’s contents. Then click on each submenu links, attached to the “Main Menu”, to read the individual details and see pictures/videos.

With regular updates, you’ll stay informed on what’s going on with our dogs and litters, what items I have for sell from my shop, and what we’ve been thinking as life goes on. So be sure to subscribe to R & D Farms to get those updates. If you have any questions, want to place an order, or adopt a puppy, please email me at rd.farms@yahoo.com. And be sure to follow me on Instagram, Facebook, and Pinterest.

And yes, if you have been following us for awhile, we did indeed move to Illinois from Kentucky in the summer of 2023. I am originally from Illinois and needed to move closer to my parents to help take care of them. So if I’m a bit slower to get things updated on here or social media, please be patient with me. My schedule is plenty full with dogs, a cat, puppies, gardening, taking care of family, crafting, writing, and more! But subscribing to receive updates will help you know when I’ve posted some news.

Thank you for stopping by. God bless!
