Big news!!! I've been dreaming of my own sheep flock for ages and it came true today. 11 Shetland sheep joined the farm! They're an adorable, fuzzy addition which we hope will give us wool and meat in the future. After fencing a quarter acre over the last 24 hours Nate and I are tired but happy.

Don't forget - Thanksgiving Turkey Reservations are open. These birds are driving me crazy roosting at night on my garden fence - claim yours before they all end up in my own freezer.

Here's the details:
Make your Thanksgiving extra special with a heritage turkey raised on our farm. These turkeys were hatched here and will be carefully raised with access to fresh grass and feed. We process them ourselves right here on the farm under our USDA exemption, so your Thanksgiving turkey truly goes from our farm to your table. We've been raising our own thanksgiving turkeys for 4 years and decided this was the year to share that bounty with you all.

Our turkeys will be processed the Friday before Thanksgiving (11/20) and available for pickup Saturday (11/21) or Sunday (11/22) before Thanksgiving. They will be fresh and never frozen!

Reserve yours with a $25 deposit, which will be applied toward the final cost of your turkey. Turkeys are $6.50/lb, with three size ranges to choose from:

8–10 lb, (final cost $52-65/bird), 5 birds available
11–14 lb (final cost $71 - 91/bird), 5 birds available
15–20 lb (final cost $97-130/bird), 3 birds available

It's hard to predict the final weight of these birds 2 months out, so we guarantee you will never pay more than the maximum weight of the size you reserve, and your final price will be based on the bird's actual processing weight. In other words, if you reserve an 11–14 lb turkey and your bird weighs 12.4 lbs, you'll pay for 12.4 lbs—not 14 or if your bird ends up being 15 lbs, you'll only pay the maximum of $91.

We're doing a limited run of this so reserve your turkey early.

Micah is selling fruit and other local goodies for his first year in FFA. He'd like to invite any friends to order from him. He's got big goals! We've ordered the orange and grapefruit box every year from a neighbor and we've not been disappointed. Check it out below. Pic of him and me at the MU game earlier this month :)

A bittersweet sunrise with just two cows and two calves in the fields.

Yesterday, Cocoa and her calf Larry left the farm to join their new family in Odessa, MO.

Today, we will take Cinnamon and Sugar to their new family in Lake Ozark, MO.

With tomorrow's sunrise it will just be Dorothy and Harry in our fields. We never needed or planned to milk 3 cows. This was always the plan but after more than 2 years of enjoying Cinnamon and Cocoa, it is hard to see them leave. I know they are going to be spoiled rotten at their new farms.

Seasons change on the farm, but I really am looking forward to the cool quiet of the autumn farm.

Morning farm update: Baby ducks are hatching - 5 so far but more are in progress!! They are precious and we're hoping many of them are female to add to Nate's laying flock. We've discovered duck eggs are delicious and want more! 🥚

All the cows and calves are doing wonderful. We're working on selling Cinnamon and Cocoa (that was always the plan), but while we wait we've been milking all 3 cows. Now I can confidently say I've trained heifers to milk - new skill unlocked 🔓! Fresh butter, milk and homemade ice cream are a few of items we've been enjoying again. 🧈

This week the goal is to sort through chickens ahead of the local monthly auction so we can keep only the best breeding animals through the winter. It's hard to think of winter when it's been a million degrees lately ❄️, but it's time!
