Sometimes I can't believe this is ours.

I was thinking about making a similar post and filming. But I honestly won't be able to without being emotional. I find as I get older the emotional stuff comes out so much easier.

Is this really ours though? When we closed on our home the paperwork showed a payment of $1120. You dont think about how that can change year to year when you did nothing to change it yourself. Our payment now is $1520 per month. Home owners insurance when we first made our purchase was $1200 annually and now it is $3680 annually. Our HI just renewed last week so this is fresh on my mind. Taxes have gone up minimally since 2020. To my surprise.

I say again... is it actually ours? I feel like we are about to be priced out of being able to afford our home, let alone keeping a farm going.

I get we are blaming inflation but have we looked at the net revenue for these companies that are making it harder and harder for people to afford a home. Or afford to rent because a landlord now has to pay more for insurance? Our HI has gone up almost 300% since 2020. Anyone's income gone up that much since 2020?

The company we are insured with, had a net revenue of $50.5 billion dollars in 2025. $50.218 billion in 2024, $49.4 billion in 2023. I think we see a pattern. If you do not understand revenue, that is their top line. Figured after all expenses. They are getting billions in revenue, I have never made a claim on our home, "inflation isn't that bad anymore" (per our government and main stream media), and I can't get a break from my homeowners insurance going up $500 or more a year, every year? Yes, I search for new insurance every year. This year and last, we are already with the cheapest option.

Wether my business is doing well or not this is just insanity. So is it ours? Is this the American dream? Being forced into the corporate job market because that is how we can afford to live? Will there be small businesses for much longer? Or will only the large corporations backed by vanguard, blackrock, and state street corp survive. And we wonder why the regular American is struggling...

It feels like a system designed to keep us from trying to live a more sustaining life. I honesty don't know how much more I can take.

Some things have happened over the last couple weeks that have made me think a bit differently. And as of right now, I am 99% sure I will not be renewing my website for January 2027.

I'm tired. I'm tired of fighting. I wish I could go back to my corporate mindset — things were more simple then. I climbed that ladder so high and so fast, we were so comfortable. And I have so much guilt for taking that from us — especially now that I am considering this a failure. And no matter what Josh says, I will always blame myself for that.

Thanks for reading if you have read this far. I don't know what the future holds for me. I feel lost without a purpose.

So, I say one last time, is it really ours?

It's always 100% deserved.

Here we have Glenn, acting like he doesn't know the difference between his Wagyu first calf heifer mom, his Wagyu bull dad, and his Jersey steer uncle. 🤦🏼‍♀️

We have amassed over 200 new followers since I last did this. And the last few weekends we have met so many new friends in person. So if you are new here or just enjoy our story — welcome or welcome back from the Fisher's!

We always knew we were meant to live in the country — we just never imagined it would lead us to the life we’re living now. It started small: a few ducks for the pond in the summer of 2019, then four goats that came home with us that Christmas. From there, everything unfolded naturally, organically, swiftly. One project turned into another, the animals multiplied, and before we knew it, we were building a life centered around self‑sufficiency and using what we have right here on our land. Our goal is simple: eliminate as much dependence on the grocery store as possible and live in a way that feels honest, intentional, and connected to the work of our own hands.

Josh is a roofer by trade, and anyone who knows that line of work knows how physically demanding it is. But his skills, ingenuity, and willingness to try anything are some of the most valuable things we have on this farm. If something needs to be built, repaired, or completely invented from scratch, he’ll figure it out — and it always turns out better than expected. He works harder than anyone I know. If he’s not on a roof, he’s here on the farm building, fixing, improving, or dreaming up the next project. He may not love the customer‑facing side of things, but that’s alright — because the talkative half of this team gets that from her dad!

I’m Sam, and I’ve spent many years in the financial industry. For a long time, that career provided stability and direction. But in 2024, everything shifted. After working remotely for two years, my employer suddenly demanded we return to the office. With everything happening on the farm, that simply wasn’t possible. And honestly, it wasn’t just the logistics — it was the growing frustration of watching big corporations treat people like they’re disposable. Customers, employees, it doesn’t matter. The bigger the company, the less heart it seems to have. They have one thought, and one thought only — the bottom line and how many millions of dollars in revenue was earned that year. I was tired of giving my time, my customer service skills to a system that didn’t truely care about the people keeping it running day in and day out.

Josh didn’t even hesitate — “Quit. We’ll figure it out.” So I did. I walked away from the so‑called stability, from the corporate mindset, from the idea that security is worth more than purpose. The stability disappeared overnight, but what replaced it was something I had been craving for years: meaning and a purpose.

I picked up a part‑time job for a little income, but eventually even that felt like it was pulling me away from what mattered. So I quit that too, choosing instead to sink everything — my time, my energy, my heart — into this business we’re trying to build. We’re still not financially stable. Some days are hard. Some days are scary. But even with the struggle, I feel more aligned with who I am than I ever did sitting behind a desk.

Now I pour myself into making the products we offer and into the work that makes this place feel like home. Every bar of soap, every product we create, every improvement on this land is a step toward the life we’re building together — a life rooted in hard work, resourcefulness, and the belief that small, honest businesses matter. This farm may not be fully self‑sustaining yet, and the business may still be growing, but it’s real. It’s ours. And it’s built with more heart than any corporation could ever even understand.

We’re grateful you’re here to be part of it.

If it isn't one thing it's another...

Or, what really happens is, everything piles on at once. And it is usually not good things that pile up.

Charlie just recovered from meningeal worm, AGAIN. Well still recovering, but we are through the hard part. I can't be 100% positive because there can only be testing done once they are deceased. But all things that happened and that turned him around point to meningeal worm. He is back to his perky, stinky, loving self. But the meds arent cheap to fix it and its pretty stressful to deal with because you need to treat fast as meningeal worm takes lives quickly.

Trigger needed his a**l glands expressed and he has been uncomfortable the last week. Finally saw the vet yesterday. Thankfully he is well now.

Butch has a skin issue going on that is not fleas. I was truthfully hoping the vet would tell me "it is fleas, silly". Because we can fix that. Instead, we arent sure and are going to start adding some oils and such to his food. And benadryl until he can stop itching.

My shoulder at the joint is jacked up. I can hardly use my right arm. Its a burning that hits in my elbow, but I can move my elbow without increasing pain. The pain stems from my shoulder. But I can't do something as simple as dishes without it taking 5 times longer than it should.

I have a billion things to get made before fall fest, tomorrow 🫣

Josh is saying home to help me today and I really hope this weekend makes it worth it.

I can't wait for the day I don't feel like I am struggling in all ways. Atleast 75% of the ways. Physically, emotionally, financially, existentially, mentally, psychologically, probably a couple more "ally's" I'd like to be stable in too.

She's back in stock!

And I made a slight change to the scent. I kept all the oils the same, but I added something 🫣

You will still get Rosemary, Lavender and Sweet Orange. They didn't change, still the same amount — but I wasn't a huge fan of the scent profile.

And honestly this stuff is for me before anyone else. I don't sell enough stuff to think about anyone's needs but my own. Plus I have very good taste. I know that what I like will be enjoyed by others. 😬🤷🏼‍♀️

So I added another essential oil called May Chang. It will calm your scalp, help with excess oil and reduce build up while keeping your hair feeling fresh.

And it smells wonderful mixed in with the other oils. May Chang is citrusy and bright. I don't know how I would describe the scent with the new addition. But I love it!

Get yours now!

*CLAIMED*

I have a box of pork up for grabs! It includes 4 packs of sweet rope, 4 packs hot rope, 4 packs keilbasa, and 4 packs of plain ground pork.

Packs average over a pound except the ground pork, thats usually right at a pound.

Offering this box up for $100 before I actually weigh everything and sell per pound.

Message me to claim. First come first serve.

I was hoping to snag a few subscriptions, but we have yet to get one on the Fisher Farm Quarterly Collection.

And honestly, subscriptions may be what get us through winter. I may talk about these a lot over the next week or so. My quota is 6 and I have until the end of the month to meet it 🫠

So now you all may have to fight for it. 🫣

Each quarterly box will include a exclusive product made only for subscribers. This quarter, starting today, I only have 6 slots available because I only have 6 of these. 🤷🏼‍♀️

This quarters exclusive product is a fall scented soak. Soak your body, soak your hands, soak your feet, soak whatever needs a little extra care — because it may look whimsical and pretty, but it is packed full of skin loving ingredients!

This soak is made up of pure Epsom salt, Kaolin clay, freeze dried goat milk that came from my own goats and was freeze dried right here on the farm, soap shavings from my fall soaps, and colloidal oats.

This is probably one of the most gentle and nourishing things you can get for your skin.

Typically these boxes will ship every January, April, July and October. This is the only box that will be back tracked and shipped. You will essentially get this box for free. And there is only 6 available. If you are not one of the first 6, your box will come as scheduled in January.

To claim — sign in/sign up, within profile click subscriptions, there will be a link that says "view plans and pricing", both available subscriptions should be there!

Consider a Fisher Farm subscription so that you never miss out on anything!

I am so busy getting ready for the peak fall fest, I am slacking on my tree pictures.

I did snag this one the other day. 🍂

Are you excited for fall, not too happy about the cold, indifferent?

I love fall. I love the leaves changing. I love getting all snuggled up in bed, going out to do chores, or sitting in my rocker on the porch. I love hot comfort foods — French onion soup is in our near future. I love that milk starts to cool as soon as it comes out because it is now cold. I love when our animals get fluffy. I love pie and fall is when eating a slice of pie just feels right. I love that it is breeding season so we have something to look forward to early next year. I love bonfires that actually keep you warm. I love seeing the stars more — even though we have shorter days.

I am excited to be building a jungle in our home to help with the cabin fever this year.

I hope this winter is better than last. I am so tired of struggling.
