Late Winter

Things are thawing and that means MUD and lots of it! The ewes are all pregnant and due to lamb in late March or April. Spring is just around the corner.

We have been collecting up to 15 eggs a day. So beginning next week we will be selling eggs for $3.00 a dozen from the farm. Look for the eggs sign, if it is out front we have eggs available. Eggs from our chicken are far superior to any from the store. Our chickens have access to our 19 acres anytime they want. The chickens love to forage for seeds and worms. We supplement their diet with mixed grains, some of the grain we purchase and the rest we grow ourselves.

Paul purchased a vintage manure spreader last week from Mr. Taylor. This will cut the barn cleaning work in half.

Welcome

We are finally getting our website up and running. Please be patient as we try to make it reflect who and what we are. Come back and check this site often. We plan to open a farm stand on our farm in summer 2011. We will be offering eggs, flowers, herbs, veggies and some baked goods for sale. We are located at the corner of 200 South and 775 East in rural Boone County, IN.

In the fall of 2011 we will have lamb for purchase. Our lamb is pasture raised, on chemical free pasture, filled with clover, alfalfa, and grasses. We allow our sheep to wean their lambs when they decide too, as always mothers know best.
