Finally we are having a good garlic season!

I am overrun with garlic scapes!
If you would like some they are $4/lb

They taste like a milder version of garlic and can be used in many ways!

Now that we have bred our cows for the year and have retained some heifers from him, our boy Clancy is looking for a new farm!

Clancy is an A2/A2 large mid-size Jersey bull.
He has some mini in his background but he himself is not miniature.
He does have some white spots on his belly so potential to throw painted calves (he threw us one this year).
Was halterbroke as a calf but we have not lead him around since then.
Good on fences, comes to grain, and used to living with horses.

Chasing a perfect, easy, uncomplicated life with no inconveniences is a futile dream.

Life is full of problems. It’s the honest truth of it. If you’re seeking a life without them, it is a path to unhappiness, frustration and feeling unfulfilled.

The cool thing is though, we get to choose our problems in some ways, and we also know that no matter what happens, we will find a way through it, even when it feels impossible at the time.

Farming comes with endless problems. Some of them are easy to fix and others make you want to fall down and cry. It comes with the territory. But really, all of life is this way. Whether it comes to parenting, family life, your work, your schooling, caring for a home and yard, relationships with friends and neighbours. None of it is all roses all the time.

The joy is found in the journey, in the in between moments, the unexpected laughs and even in the chaos.

Overcoming problems and inconvenience is simply a part of the human experience, and the sooner we embrace it, the happier we will be. It’s good to grow and want more but the grass is not always greener elsewhere and we must also learn to love our life right where it’s at.

Man it feels good to finally be done the rebar on the shop build! That’s a lot of work!

We have to square up the forms a bit more and stake them in place and then we will be ready to have the concrete poured.

Just in time to get ready to start haying soon.

Our Story

Farming and ranching is something stuck in our blood. We were never blessed with having a farm or land handed down to us, so we have had to make some pretty big sacrifices and live our life quite differently than most people in order to achieve our dream. Some think we are ‘weird’ or don’t understand the vision we have. Staying as debt-free as possible and managing money wisely plays a key role in us being able to pursue this big endeavour at 23 and 25 years old. Purchasing our land and starting to build certainly was not the beginning of this dream! On top of that, we have found it is super important to believe in ourselves! There has been more than enough nay-sayers, doubters, etc. telling us we are crazy, naive, misinformed, or all sorts of other things for pursuing a passion that many others would never do. Despite this, we have learned to ignore the hate and continue working towards our goals. Raising our family on a farm and teaching our children crucial values that are lacking in todays society is another significant goal of ours, as well as living in and participating in a small community. We are excited to get back to our roots and become more involved in both the equine and beef industry.
