As farmers, we have a unique opportunity to fully rely on God — for rain, for yield, and for the health of our livestock. When things are going well, gratitude comes easy. But when the rain doesn’t fall, or the calf you fought hard to save doesn’t make it, we’re reminded who we are….and who the true Provider is.
Stay humble and true to Our Father🖤

Making hay and memories on our family farm is our favorite family activity! Pretty soon L Babes will all 4 be independent in our hay making process! Lorelai’s 2nd year in training and she’s catching up to her brothers skills in no time! Laney Mae is still in seat time phase, next year will be her year! Love seeing their tractor and equipment operating skills grow each year! 🌱💪🏼🚜
Training up the next generation to take over our generational family farm one day!🖤

🦌🤎🌾It’s fawn season on our farm! 🦌🤎🌾
During this time of year, it is completely normal to see a fawn lying alone in the grass, woods, or even near your yard. While it may look abandoned, in most cases the mother is nearby and caring for the baby exactly as nature intended.

Mother deer intentionally leave their fawns hidden and alone for long periods of time while they go off to feed. Fawns are born with very little scent, and staying quiet and still helps keep them safe from predators. Mom will return periodically throughout the day to nurse and check on them, usually during dawn and dusk when it is safer.

A healthy fawn should:
• Be quiet and curled up resting
• Stay in the same general area
• Appear clean and alert
• Not approach people

Please do not pick up or move a fawn unless it is in immediate danger.

When should you be concerned?
• The fawn is continuously crying or wandering around looking for mom
• It has visible injuries
• There are flies, maggots, or a strong odor present
• It appears weak, unable to stand, or laying on its side
• A deceased doe is found nearby (and you know for certain it is mom)

If you are unsure whether a fawn needs help, contact a licensed wildlife rehabilitator before intervening. Often, the best thing we can do is give wildlife space and let mom return.

God blesses our life and raising our kids on our cattle farm. Our lifestyle allows for lots of time outdoors in the fresh air, running around, doing outside chores, learning responsibility by taking care of animals and our land in our care. Other life lessons that just come naturally with this way of life are learning about love, life and death.
My kids have experienced watching baby calves being born. They have watched the mama cow lick off and dry the baby, urging it to stand and start sucking to get that important first milk—colostrum.
The most exciting calves are the ones out of heifers or cows the kids have shown. We have always included them in discussions about genetics and breeding their cattle. They look at the pedigree and EPDs, and decide which would be a good mating. It’s always fun for the kids to see a cow they have invested a lot of time into—time in the barn (the barn we did have before the fire), washing, drying, clipping, haltering, leading, showing—have her calf. Many times it works out great. A healthy, strong calf hits the ground and is ready to go.
But sometimes, it doesn’t.
My kids have also seen when mama cow has experienced problems, the baby bovine comes early, or just isn’t quite right. We worry, sweat, and curse because even though we know it happens, every calf we lose, regardless of the situation, still hurts. We blame or second guess ourselves, even when there was nothing we could do. So much thought, care, hard work, time and money go into raising animals that every loss is felt.
There is life and there is death.
Times like this are hard, but thankfully they aren’t the norm. You have to love this lifestyle to continue doing it day after day. There’s not a lot of recognition for the work farmers do, which is fine. We don’t do it for the praise.
We are creating a legacy that hopefully lives on long after we are gone.💔
Lorelai lost her bred and owned heifer calf Tuesday morning. She was 30 hours old. She called emergency vet Sunday evening and between the vet and our family of 6 we did everything we could to save her. Unfortunately we lost. RIP sweet girl♥️

It’s been over a month since we’ve done an update on our recent barn fire and death of our animals. We just want to give a huge shout out to Jamie Leppo and his son Brody, Leppo Excavating for coming out and doing all the preparation for barn rebuild, doing all the heavy lifting and dirt work, and more. It’s the most generous gift we’ve received. Their time and machinery and God given talents helped us tremendously, without them we would still be working on barn cleanup ourselves with our small machine. God always places the correct people at the correct time, we just continue to be still and listen to Gods direction. As for the barn rebuild everything is being put on hold and a hindrance to our every day lives. We unfortunately cannot make any progress on rebuilding our kids 4-H “show cow” barn until the 6 lawsuits from mother and mother in law are resolved and case is closed. Continuing to trust God’s plan in the midst of our suffering. It’s gonna be a tough show season for our kids with their 4-H projects, we’ve been making temporary adjustments so our kids can still work with their cattle and be able to show all their hard work in the show ring this year, although not ideal conditions we are still making every attempt to keep the cattle happy, healthy and content. Thank you for your continued prayers, donations on go fund me, gift cards and show supplies to our kids. We wouldn’t be able to come this far without it. Your generosity and support helped our kids be successful at their county 4-H beef field day and their daily care with their projects. Thank you to one of our followers here in Uniontown with the donation of the chicken run for our daughters hens and bantam chicks, it made her so happy to be able to have something for them to be able to go outside and be happy to eat grass and bugs. This past weekend our daughter build herself a small chicken coop to go inside the chicken run and now her chicks are happy. My peacocks are still healing but are finally looking better and acting “normal” again. The one side of their feathers that were burnt in the fire continues to grow back, it’s been a slow process. Will try to continue to update. Prayers♥️

Happy 13th Celebration of Life Logan Cullen🙏🏼
The brain can survive a limited time without oxygen before damage occurs. Generally, brain cells start dying within 3-5 minutes of oxygen deprivation. After 5 minutes, death becomes imminent, and brain damage is likely, with a higher chance of permanent damage after 10 minutes.

Here’s a more detailed breakdown:

0-1 minute: Loss of consciousness may occur.

1-5 minutes: Brain cells begin to die, and damage is possible.

5-10 minutes: Death becomes imminent, and lasting brain damage is likely.

10+ minutes: Survival is unlikely, and severe, permanent brain damage is likely.

I was told my in-laws (the same mother in law who served us with 6 lawsuits this year to try to force a sale on our generational family farm that has been in the Englar-Barnett family bloodline since 1904) were taking my 2 1/2 year old son to dig for worms, moments after taking him I heard the lawn mower running outside, and moments after that I heard yelling and screaming, “We can’t find Logan, come help, he’s gone.” My heart dropped and barefoot I ran outside. My eyes saw the lawn mower flipped upside down in our creek and was told Logan was underneath the water submerged in the mud and mower pinned down. We got a tractor and a chain. I put the chain around the mower and chained to loader on tractor and pulled the mower off Logan. We felt his body sucked down in the mud under water and finally was able to break his body free and put him on creek bank. While on phone with 911 and doing CPR until they arrived. He was cold, no pulse, no heartbeat, broken ribs, 2 collapsed lunges, we took too long. Long story short, Logan went into cardiac arrest 3 more times after that. We estimated he was under water for more than 28 minutes .
It’s been a long recovery progress and Logan continues to work on his brain injury. He never gives up. Logan continues to amaze us with challenges he overcomes.

3/21/26 (day before barn fire/Lorelai’s birthday) calf #4 was born (last picture). Lorelai was so excited to wake up on her birthday morning to check mama cows, she knew that 4th calf was gonna be born on her birthday, she walked down to pasture by herself and when she came to the house to tell us she found calf #4 on the ground and the bull calf was dead. That beautiful bull calf was supposed to be Laney Mae’s 4-H bred and owned market steer project for 2026-2027.
3/26/26 Lorelai wanted to check mama cows one more time before going to bed so at 10:30pm Edward and her walked down to the pasture with a flashlight and found that Lorelai was once again correct (she knows her cattle) and they found a healthy beautiful bull calf. Calf #5 was born. This is Lorelai’s bred and owned 4-H market steer project for 2026-2027. She named him “Renegade” and we spent a good 45 min loving and snuggling on him two days after he was born. He is the sweetest calf I think we’ve ever bred.
Just thought I’d share since it’s Holy Week and Holy Saturday. We’ve spent a lot of family time mourning and reflecting but also knowing there will be a time for celebration after our suffering. All for the Glory of God always♥️

3/21/26….I remember walking up to our barn to check on kids and to see how they were coming along on evening chores before heading in the house for the night. So glad we captured this photo. I just remember this sight stopped me in my tracks I just thought how beautiful it was. This is the last photo we took of our barn and our animals inside and everything we build and bought over the last 10-11 years for our kids “show cow” barn. This was taken one day before the fire that happened on 3/22/26 that took a piece of our heart and soul from us.💔
