Hostas are coming up. We're thinking of splitting some of them to start transplanting around fencelines on the farm. But at this stage they look like alien claws coming out of the ground.

My sister came up today to help clear some of the garden beds. She had an audience.

First nanking cherry blossoms are coming in for spring. The farm is waking up <3

Egg season has finally started on the farm! We have 5 dozen eggs currently available! 🙂 Self-serve, just put your money in the box. We'll post when they are gone to keep you updated!

Now that it's February and we're reaching the end of winter and the beginning of spring, what do we do for the garden? 

Gardening is a year-round activity, but February is when we really start the fun stuff.

Here's what to start looking at in our 6b zone :)

Not sure what to do with your Christmas tree? Turn them into goat treats!

If your tree has not been sprayed with pesticides or had tinsel, we'll take them! We've been featured on Fox43 and the Wall Street Journal about our Christmas tree recycling program with goats!

We apologize we've been out of eggs for an extended period of time. The chickens are still molting which means all of their energy is going into growing back their feathers instead of laying eggs. We will definitely post when we have some in stock again <3

Chickens know what's up.

Our chickens monitoring egg sales to see how much they can get away with not laying this time of year.

I used to make myself a little mini picnic and read this book because of the happiness it created for me as a kid. I still have my copy even.

Think maybe it's time for another picnic...

@JR_Homesteading Nothing for me, but good for other guys I guess 😅
