We’re the Abbotts. After years in commercial real estate, construction, and investing—and Ashley’s time as a teacher and counselor—we stepped away from hard hats and lesson plans to pursue a dream that felt closer to the heart and more firmly rooted in purpose.

Opening and owning a coffee shop in Columbia opened our eyes to a deeper calling—one centered on people, dignity, and true inclusion. As that vision grew, the Lord led us to close the coffee shop and take a bold step forward to create something even more intentional: Shiloh Trading Co., a place designed to be deeply inclusive and purpose-driven.

From that calling, Shiloh Communities was born—a mission-focused space where children and individuals with disabilities can learn, work, live, and truly thrive. Shiloh Abbott Ranch serves as the overarching homestead that houses and supports Shiloh Communities—a place where life slows down, community grows strong, and the beauty of God’s creation is experienced daily.

Here, surrounded by open fields and farm life, we are building more than a ranch—we are building a community grounded in faith, belonging, and hope for generations to come. We invite you to follow along and join us in this adventure.

SHILOH COMMUNITIES IS THE BIGGER VISION BEHIND SHILOH TRADING COMPANY—A PLACE WHERE INDIVIDUALS WITH ALL ABILITIES CAN LIVE, CREATE, AND WORK.

Big things happening on the farm. 🐎🌾
We’re in the process of installing 4,600 feet of new pasture fencing—not just for the horses we have now, but with eyes and prayers toward the future therapy program and community God is growing here.

Would you please pray with us?
Pray for good timing, provision, safety during the work, and wisdom as we steward this land and this calling. Most of all, pray that this farm would continue to be a place of healing, purpose, and peace, where lives—both human and animal—are cared for with love.

We’re trusting the Lord step by step and are so grateful for every prayer along the way. 🤍
