We are starting the journey to becoming more self sustaining and adapting to a healthier living style. Since we are starting small rabbits and chickens are a great way to go. The rabbits will be raised for a healthier meat for my self, my husband and our large breed dog. Rabbit is a very healthy, easy, and space saving animal to raise for meat. The chickens are first being raised for breeding and
selling purposes along with egg production. The goat on out homestead is a pasture buddy for the lamb and w**d control. The next couple years we will add a milk goat for soap making purposes. The ram we have will be used for studding out services and his fine wool. Each year he is sheared and his wool will be hand spun for selling. Along with all the animals I will share our large 100 year garden that we will be planting every year starting this year! The excess fruits, veggies, and herbs will be sold off. We plan to can and preserve what we can sharing all the processes along the way. Our home is an old farm house so we will share our old unique finds from different home objects to decade old flowers and trees.
