I try to be as earth-conscious and eco-friendly as I can in my home. I am sure there are plenty of things I could be doing better. We recycle and try not to use a lot single-use plastic material for storing our food. We have reusable zip-lock bags that work great for storing Abbie’s fruit. […]

Hi everyone! I am trying out this blogging thing! Bear with me as I don’t really know what I am doing. I am going to try to make it look pretty, provide information and maybe make you laugh once or twice. Let’s see how this goes! We lead very busy lives running a farm and […]
So, we are a week into 2021! How is everyone feeling? I feel about the same! I was recently thinking about how people might wonder what farmers do during the “off-season.” I had no idea before I started working with Chris. Turns out, there is a lot to do! As they say, there is no rest […]
