Fourth of July is coming up. ❤️🤍💙

Keep the babies watered! Any container you have available should be full right now for drinking, bathing, stepping in, whatever they need. Keep water in the shade if at all possible. Water bowl in the sun are getting too hot!

Also, don’t try to keep those eggs collected this week. 🤮 we are finding them exploded from cooking from the inside out! Literally the whites of the eggs are cooked solid.

If yall haven’t picked up Colson's spices, you are seriously missing out. We used their Carolina Oinker on some of our farm-raised pork butt in the smoker and … oh… em… geeee.

Y’all…. It’s to die for. 🤤

🌿✨ EXCITING NEWS SIX MILE! ✨🌿

A select variety of our Colson's Seasoning Blends and Tea Blends have found a new home—and it’s not your typical market shelf!

📣 Community - The shelter could use your help again. 📣

Oconee County Animal Shelter is still housing all of the animals from the large animal seizure case in March. Until the accused party surrenders the animals or the case is adjudicated, it is the responsibility of the shelter to continue to house, feed, and provide medical care for these animals.

Since March, the need has been great, and the donations have been amazing! 🤗 They are beginning to be exhausted, though, and there is additional need if the community has the ability to help. The number of rabbits 🐰 did grow, post-seizure, as some were already bred at that time. The shelter can use additional cages like the one linked below. 👇🏼

Please comment if you purchase, so we know how many were bought. The shelter will let me know when they have received enough.

Ordering on Amazon is easy, and it ships directly to the shelter!
➡️ 1925 Sandifer Blvd, Seneca, SC 29678

If you want to donate feed, coastal hay, all stock sweet feed, corn, and rabbit pellets are appreciated!
If you want to donate financially, you can Venmo , and I can do another large haul of feed for them.

The perfect rabbit habitat. Black e-Coat Finish. Sets up complete in seconds. No tools required.Front and top doors and latch provides one-handed operation.

I absolutely love getting messages from the people that have gotten their guardians from me. I know I’m biased when it comes to the dogs I train, but it is so amazing when I get feedback from others about how they have impacted them and their farms.

I put so much thought and care into each dog I train, even if they’re not dogs I ever see in person! I connected with this family through a local farm page because they had another guardian that they were already at their wits end with and needed help. After a one hour phone call with them they made the recommended changes and already felt like they understood the dog better. Another week later they asked me about adding another dog to their land since they have so much property. It just so happened that I had one of my dogs returned to me from a previous buyer (no fault of her own). If I have a dog returned, I don’t sell it again, I simply find it a proper home, and that is exactly what I did with this girl. 💕

She is elusive though, that’s no surprise. She’s not overly friendly, but she really is a great dog. But I’m still invested in seeing if she progresses more and I’ll be taking the drive to her new farm in a couple weeks to visit and get hands on her. And if nothing else, they strategically scheduled her vet appointment for the next day. 🤣

Rocky Ridge Horse Rescue just got this mare home and she’s much worse than originally thought. They’re going to need donations to try to save this girls life. If you can spare even $5, please send it their way!

If you use Venmo, do not choose the “person” account, that is a scammer. Use the “business” account, that is the correct one.

Not sure why this is becoming a thing, but our house is not open for tours and visitation isn’t permitted. We have cameras everywhere. If you think coming here is going to work out well, you’ll be in for a surprise. My tolerance is now gone.

Do not come up our driveway uninvited.

A little action at the Den tonight.

A Mr. Chandler Crawford, evidently a man with warrants, ran from the Pickens County Sheriff's Office (SC) and decided to choose our driveway to make his escape. He drove up into our yard, jumped out and ran into the woods. He didn’t make it far because Deputy Holliday, who was in pursuit, didn’t miss a beat and chased him down and toted him back out a minute later in cuffs.
