Arizona desert heat and farm chores can definitely not be super fun. However a lot of people think it’s really difficult to keep the animals cool too and it’s actually way more simple than you’d think!

Moving air, shade and water just about does it for most of the animals. Simple. All our animals have ample amount of shade, fresh water and of course open moving air.

If you have any questions leave them below!

Vanilla extract. You’re probably doing it right but need to tweak some things.

While yes you could technically speed up the process using a sous vide or pressure canning, that would probably result in just some stronger vanilla tasting vodka rather than a true extract.

Extracts take time and y’all need to slow down and be patient.

I get all my vanilla beans from Indri’s Vanilla Bean Group here on Facebook and always get the best beans for the best prices!

I am always all about learning and teaching so let’s chat away about your extracts!

Some may call it controversial, but I just want a break from the other side of the internet.

Too often I see people get milk cows without doing any research and just expect the cow to tell them what to do. Google is free, YouTube is free, even Facebook is free. Just do the damn research.

This life is difficult to start and difficult to maintain long term. A lot of people do a lot more complaining than just working out the tough moments and keep going. Hate to say it, but get used to it.

The farm and animals don’t care what kind of day you’re having. They don’t care if you’re sick, had a bad day at work, went through a break up, had a fight with someone, no matter what the animals depend on you. They still need you to feed them and care for them.

You know what really grinds my gears? Influencers jumping on the homestead bandwagon for the aesthetic and for the attention. If you’re just here for the followers and views, you’re part of the problem.

I see so many people buy a cow or pig or even meat chickens with the intention to raise them out and put them in the freezer to feed their family, and by the time the time comes to move them into freezer camp, the people “just can’t do it” and end up with really expensive pets and even poultry that just keel over and pass away due to organ failure. If you’re going to raise something to feed your family, commit to the end goal. If you just want a pet, don’t name your cow T-Bone or Tacos and claim you’re going to eventually process it. Just send it to the damn butcher and feed your family or have a pet plan in place.

Yeah this is gonna ruffle feathers but honestly it needs to be said.

Comments? Thoughts? Opinions? Let’s chat.
