🌽Attended many a Purcellville farmer's market to meet many new faces
🐐Welcomed some beautiful goat babies into this world and into new homes

I have a habit of treating myself to new farm critters for the holidays - A few years ago it was our old Lamancha buck Peter (god rest his ornery soul); This year, it's a breeding pair of Saxony ducks!!!!!!!!!!! Fun fact, these are a rare German breed of duck that was lost during WWII and brought back by their creator Albert Froanz. They are said to be incredibly friendly, and excellent dual purpose birds due to their large size, fast grow out, and decent egg production.

The beau and I will be hard at work over the holiday break making a delightful home for them in the garden under the evergreen tree. Thanks to our friends James Galliera and Sharyn Klix Galliera for the stock tank they found in their back yard, which inspired my new quaky adventure 😂🦆

2022, duck eggs, duck meat and duck fat here we come!

PS - Does anyone have any name suggestions for the handsome couple?

This handsome guy is dying for some ladies to service - Purebred Nubian buck, he's 20 months old currently. Throws LOTS of fun colors - Our this year's kids had moon spots for days and a few belly bands.

He's also a bit on the short side, but I'm not complaining since he's a lot easier to manager than some of our previous bucks.

G6S N/N , CAE/CL/Johnes clean herd. Message me if you have some ladies that need a date and we can discuss!

Dried flowers are my favorite way to bring nature indoors during the winter solstice. You'd be surprised what a natural wreath can do for a dreary corner or boring surface! The 🐰hook helps too, of course 🤗

Friends, a teeny announcement this morning!

We are finished with attending the Purcellville Farmers Market for the season in lieu of spending every second stacking up product for the upcoming holiday season. You can always order online at https://lostacrehomestead.square.site/ or by sending me a message!

Catch us at these upcoming events:

11/6 930-1130 at Pop-Up Sale for The Good Cause at the Blikken Hut in Lovettsville. Come see me and about 10 other vendors for a morning of shopping to support local charities!

11/27 12-530 at Williams Gap Vineyard for the first EVER Holiday Market at Williams Gap Vineyard! Reed Mayer and some other lovely volunteers will be there helping to trim and load your farm fresh Christmas trees compliments of Paige Jackson Critchley and her farm stand.

11/28 at Dirt Farm Brewing for their wonderful show!

12/4 time TBD at Old 690 Brewing Company for their annual Christmas Market. This was a fully packed show last year so come early to shop and sip!

We'll be focusing on our tried and true goat's milk lotion, our brand new line of small batch goat's milk soaps, our power wrap beaded bracelets, dried floral wreaths in gift and door sizes, and our resin earrings. We will still have some feather jewelry but as trends change, we're slowly decreasing our inventory there.

Friends!

Come join me and an assortment of other vendors at the Blikken Hut on November 6th from 9 to 12. Each vendor is donating a percentage of their net sales to a local charity. The best news is; We can all grab a drink together afterwards at Market Table Bistro!

It's here ✨🙌💚

"Plain Jane" is 💯% fragrance free no fuss REAL goats milk soap. This isn't the melt and pour prepackaged goats milk, it comes straight from the beautiful Tink and Wendy (our female Nubians in milk), gets filtered, and goes straight into our products.

Catch us in Lovettsville for a pop up market on 11/6, and again at Williams Gap Vineyard the Saturday after Thanksgiving!

10/21/2021

Last but not least, The Study! This bar is scented with notes of bourbon, orange, spice and to***co.

Winter is coming!!! Just kidding - but Christmas Market season is, and we've been busyyyyy!!!

I'm super excited to announce that we're growing our line of products!

On the goat milk product side, will still have our tried and true goat's milk lotions, SheShe shave and hand salves, but we're finally ready to introduce our line of small batch goat's milk soaps!

In the flower department, we've been busy drying our farm fresh blooms so that we can offer hand crafted wreaths. These beauties are best suited indoors to keep them fresh for years to come.

Finally, and my personal favorite, we have some incredible bracelets that are going to replace our knotted necklace line. These pieces are convertible to accommodate different wrist sizes and feature gemstones and other luxury materials such as freshwater pearls. After all, it's all about casual luxury, wouldn't you agree?

Catch us at the Williams Gap Vineyard Christmas Market on 11/27 and other locations before then. You can ALWAYS place an order online!
