Chickies fist larva feeding! 🐥🤟🏼

Foraging is taught early around here. Black soldier fly larvas are packed full of protein for growing birds and are raised...grown...harvested? I don't know the right word but all that to say I'm fully obsessed with watching my compost quickly disappear with handfuls of larvas taking their place as a reliable food source for all the birds...and piglets on the farm 😜 Exciting things are happening as these birds grow to grace are tables come fall.

Early morning milk bar! A good momma sow is with her weight in gold and Miss Ellen is as patient as they come. As the piglets age they eat as much and as often as possible and find themselves in some pretty funny positions. 😜 One of the many reasons why farrow to finish is so important and a question that should be asked every time you buy pork. This scenario of mom and babies having plenty of room to move, frolic and wallow is not the norm- though it 100% should be.

Sunday fun day off the farm! A quick trip to Austin was just the break we needed to enjoy the day, each other and the place we call home. .atx was delicious, remains my favorite place in Austin and finished it off with a longhorn win on the baseball field! Hook em' baby! Until next time - Austin stay weird, and everyone else stay wild... and say yes to the crazy things even if it means being tired in the morning 🤣

And just like that it's spring! 🏵️

I don't know if an apology or an explanation is in order for my hiatus from social media- nobody asked but here it is anyway 😜

These last couple of months have been a difficult season of transition, growth, and trying to go with the flow. In February I went back to work off the farm. A wonderful work from home job with excellent benefits, lovely people and well- adequate pay. That being said, while I am grateful for this new opportunity I never wanted it. In a perfect world the farm would be enough to sustain us but we all know the world is far from perfect- especially in this time and place in American history. It's more like a dumpster fire that we are all doing our best to survive. And if we can enjoy the little things along the way- home cooked meals, conversations with friends and a little league game twice a week. 👩🏼‍💻

It's hard not to compare yourself to social media success stories. While in my head I know that they have their struggles too, and social media most always highlights the success and hides the failures it's hard on my heart and I find myself asking- what are they doing that we're not, how are they making it look so easy, and ultimately what are we doing wrong to constantly be stressed about money, time, the future and everything else that plagues my brain. ❤️

I don't know the answer to these things and I probably never will and that's ok. Everyday we work hard to grow and learn as people and a farm business, to show others, and the much more difficult task, ourselves grace and at the end of the day be proud of what we're doing on and off the farm to support our family, friends and community. Life never looks the way you thought it would and I'm learning to let go and accept the reality of the here and now. 🌊

All that to say- life got crazy, adjusting to a new work life balance took time, and social media isn't always the healthiest place for me to be so I took a break. I'm back now and look forward to sharing our journey - the good, the bad and the million things in between. ✨

Stay wild out there! 🌼
