Exciting day at our place!

Our day started out very exciting today.  We were blessed by our first egg from our free range chickens.  We started our layers from chicks, and after 20+ weeks of waiting we received the long desired product, "EGGS"!!  What a way to learn a few basic life principles like: patience, hope, diligence, delayed gratification, just to name a few.  God provides a lot of opportunities through nature to teach principles of successful living.  That is one thing we love about having our own small farm; everyday we get a new opportunity to go out and see what surprises await us and to behold the awesome handiwork of Jesus.

  2. Good Evening, I am truly enjoying your blog. It's fun to see how you are growing. I see you are using non GMO, I love it. But can you tell me where you are getting your grain from?

  3. We raise most of our own grain, although we have gotten some from a farmer friend that raised non-GMO corn and earpicked it, he then lost his market for decoration corn and wanted to get rid of it. It is hard to find non-GMO grains if you are looking in conventional places, but there are a few places around that you can buy it. If you need some more information regarding where you can get it let me know and I can get you the contact information.
