Just a sweet baby (Turtle) enjoying his Cheerios. 🐢🐐❤️

This little guy has no idea how spoiled he is. Or maybe he does. 😂🥹

Trying something new on the homestead today! 🐓🐾

With all the chickens we processed this weekend, I figured why not try dehydrating some chicken feet for dog treats?!

I've never done this before, so we'll see how it goes! 😂 I'm all about finding ways to use as much of what we raise as possible instead of letting it go to waste.

Anyone else ever tried making these?

We will be there with goat milk soap and other goodies 😉

We are just 4 days away from our Farm Market. Looking forward to seeing everyone. Sunday, October 25, 2026, 10-2PM, will be our last market for the 2026 season. Come on out and spend a little time on the farm. Fiona misses you!

We have a limited menu for pre-orders. More will be available on Sunday at the farm. 😃 The order form opens at 12PM today, Wednesday, October 21st and closes on Thursday at 12PM or after the first 20 orders, which ever comes first.

Link in comments. Because, apparently, FB is limiting links. Unless you pay for them?

Y’all!! How did I not know about this?! 😂

So apparently, if you have a Sam’s Club Plus membership, you can link your Walmart account and get Walmart+ benefits too! 😳

I was just messing around on my Sam’s Club app this morning and this popped up. Of course I had to try it, and sure enough, it worked!

Free delivery from Walmart on eligible orders, streaming perks, and a bunch of other stuff!

I’m all about saving money, and if I can get extra benefits from something I’m already paying for, you better believe I’m going to take advantage of it! 🤣

Figured I’d share in case I’m not the only one who didn’t know about this!

Did y’all already know, or am I just late to the party?! 😂

Ya girl is tired. 🫠

Tired of the hustle. Tired of HAVING to hustle. Tired of working my tail off just to get by and somehow still feeling like I'm not doing enough.

And the crazy part? I like to tell myself that if I ever had the opportunity to just relax, I would. But honestly? I don't even know if I know HOW to relax anymore.

There's always something that needs doing, something that needs paying, or something else I could be working on.

I'm grateful for this life, I really am. But being grateful doesn't mean I'm not exhausted.

Surely I'm not the only one who feels this way. Anyone else?

What did yall get?

Well, THIS is a big ol' chicken! 🐔😂

Our biggest homegrown bird yet, weighing in at a whopping 8.8 pounds! 😳

Out of our chickens we processed this weekend, our smallest was 6.7 pounds and this monster took the heavyweight title!

There's just something so satisfying about raising your own food and knowing exactly what went into it. ❤️
