We will be upgrading our property FINALLY with a barn, shop and fencing! These three things, as you all know, we desperately have needed! Not to mention, we were able to purchase our dream tractor after many years of it being part of our goal! AAAAAAND we purchased a lofted cabin for yours truly, to … Continue reading Tractor, New Structures and Fencing
Mornings like this are surreal. The fact we have all that we have is such a blessing and I am grateful beyond words. This morning while feeding and watering I had such an immense sense of joy hearing all our animals go about their ways. I started to look around and envision the things we … Continue reading Homesteading on Restricted Land
I know Ive probably said this a dozen times before on this blog. Like, “we are getting so close to becoming a farm” or “oh my gosh I’m so excited our place is looking like a farm”. So please, forgive me for the repetition of excitement, and I give you permission to roll your eyes … Continue reading It’s beginning to look a lot like a Farm
Our wannabe farm is starting to feel like a farm. We've added another goat to our place and she is such a sweetheart. The farm we got her from use to show her, so she has been handled amply. She may also have been bred and will be due in March 2020 if the breeding … Continue reading Free Pallet Goat Shelter
I've been a busy little bee lately, and it feels like I get nothing accomplished. That's life right? This year has been a total disaster as far as my food growing plans went, and other stuff I guess too. We had a terribly cold spring with lots of late frost. Then, the grasshoppers and squash … Continue reading A Drone & Other Shenanigans

One of our neighbors, Ana and Cory, are doing wonders on their … Continue reading Neighbors Homestead

We went from being uncertain if we wanted to go through with the full purchase/payoff of our land, to making the full payoff (hallelujah), to having to separate our family for special reasons, to making progress on the home renovations and now being uncertain again … Continue reading Progress and Uncertainty
This is kind of a late late post. See, back in March, we were getting ready to start digging out an area for the ducks to have a pond. Before we could even begin, one of the ducklings was bitten by a snake and passed. We were so sad and angry for not hurrying up. … Continue reading Duck Pond
Wouldn't it be boring if there wasn't something new coming up in your day to day? It would be extremely boring especially when you don't have any neighbors or people visiting you on occasion of which we have neither. Living here is a perfect blend of drama and adventure between our animals, wildlife and us … Continue reading Always something…
It's snowing as I write this. Still, Spring is around the corner! The birds are singing, when the weather is nice of course, and the bugs are slowly popping up. I. Cannot. Wait. This year, we are growing a garden. Something we didn't do last year Spring time. We missed out on growing tomatoes and … Continue reading Spring around the corner
