🄚 Florida egg prices in 2026… šŸ‘€

According to this list, Florida is sitting around $6.50 a dozen.

Meanwhile, Wandering Shepherd Farmstead is at $6/dozen while our girls are in full production.

Farm fresh, local, NPIP certified, and operating under our Florida poultry and egg permits.

You know where your food came from, how it was raised, and who handled it. šŸ“šŸŒ±

Sometimes supporting local isn’t more expensive after all. šŸ˜‰

The evolution of chicken soup… a good chicken soup takes 4 days to make!

1 day to harvest and rest the chicken

2nd day to roast and shred the chicken (to be used in about 3-4 meals)

3rd day to simmer a decadent broth from the bones and skin

and comes the 4th day to complete it with the meat, broth, herbs, veggies, and time.

Bonus, fresh homemade biscuits - a requirement at this point.

UPDATE SOLD
American Bresse pullet UFD - she has a little leakage on her white feathers which is why she is up for grabs and will not go to our breeding flocks. She is a few days shy of 10 weeks. Please DM for more information.

American Bresse starter flocks are available again! We have cockerels and roosters available as well as laying age hens. These chickens are our choice for a heritage meat chicken and are wonderful multi purpose chickens. Wonderful foragers, very nice temperament, beautiful birds, prolific layers, and cherry ontop - the roosters yield a great size carcass at 16-18 weeks and are delicious.

Please send us a DM with any questions! This is for local pickup only. Can deliver regionally for additional cost.

I’ve noticed a trend lately where some people feel discouraged about homesteading and their own abilities based on what they currently have or what they’re able to do. That was really heavy on my mind tonight while I was juicing pounds of lemons and limes for marinades, lemonades and drinks, dressings, and of course margaritas and lemon drops over the next couple of weeks.

I just want to remind everyone that homesteading can be as simple as you make it. It can meet you where you are, any day of the week, in whatever way works for you.

We lost most of our fruit trees last year, right after we had finally invested in getting some baby trees. They lost all of their growth from the hard freeze, and they’re only just now starting to come back with some decent greenery. No blooms. No key lime pie dreams or Meyer lemons for sweet treats. No juicy tangelos. We had to let go of those dreams for this year, and that’s okay. You don’t have to have a thriving orchard to still be homesteading.

It’s okay to buy a bag of lemons or limes from the store because your trees aren’t producing yet. It’s okay to spend twenty minutes hand squeezing 2 pounds of lemons and 3 pounds of limes and call that a win. What you are capable of doing with what you have available to you IS ENOUGH.

Please don’t look at the aesthetic homesteads and farms online with their perfect gardens, beautiful harvests, seasonal produce plans and perfectly stocked pantries and think you’re doing less because yours doesn’t look like that. Homesteading doesn’t have to look a certain way. It can be growing a few tomatoes in a pot. It can be baking your own bread. It can be raising chickens. It can be buying produce from the grocery store and preserving it yourself. It can be learning one new skill at a time.

That’s the beauty of homesteading. It can meet you right in the middle, wherever you are. Start with what you have. Do what you can. THAT is enough.
