In 2012, My husband, our beautiful 3 month old son and I moved into our little farmhouse on 2 acres. It's been load of work ever since and we have loved almost every minute of it.
In the last year we have cut down or trimmed more trees than we can count, pulled weeds, trimmed citrus trees, we've learned how to use our irrigation ditches an irrigate our land. We've built, painted and repaired chicken coops.
We've watched our son learn to roll, crawl, creep, cruise and now walk and talk.
He's even learned how to help water and feed our flock of chickens.
We have raised chickens from day old chicks to now happy healthy laying chickens that provide us with wonderful organic eggs on a daily basis.
We've had family gatherings, parties with friends, dinners with both, and quiet nights on the patio listening to crickets chirping in the background.
And the most important task we have worked on over the last year, we have made a home for our family.
We are starting to make our place more than just our home. We are working very hard to make a farm that can help us to be more of a self sustaining family. We want our farm to help us on a path to our Independence.
In future blogs I will hopefully share the goings on at the farm and hopefully other interesting tidbits of life.
Thank for reading and I hope you enjoy.
