Sorry we haven't posted in a while. We unfortunately had to say goodbye to my daddy. Our family will always come first! We ended up deciding that it was better to feed the eggs back to the chickens then to have to worry about customers during this time. They didn't seem to mind!

Ken and I took a long while to go wild black berry picking. It was therapeutic to say the least. With that, I was able to make wild Blackberry Jam. Wow! Did it not disappoint. Next will be Onion Jam.

Before y'all wrinkle your noses to the idea of onion jam, it's not used like traditional Jam. Just imagine grilling a delicious, juicy hamburger. If you like onions, you'll LOVE onion Jam on your burger. It pairs well with chicken and pork too!

So that is what I have been doing to keep my mind occupied over the last week. Coming up with things to can, and purging in my house. If I don't stay busy, I miss my daddy. Figured I'd post one of my favorite picture too. He loved my mom so much.

We love our Emus, Fred & Wilma. Fred is super social and loving. Wilma isn't at all. She will come up to us if we aren't looking. They are powerful birds and have the ability to tear us up. Their kick is powerful. I took a picture of the razors they have on their legs. Good thing they like us. Lol.

We built a strawberry tower using stackable planters and metal conduit. Ken also drilled an extra hole to pass drip mist tubing up through it.

We've been busy trying to get ready to plant our garden. We got 2 new peach trees in and a papya tree as well. Our mulberry tree is growing like mad. Can't wait to get fruit again.

What we battle with here in FL with things that bite. Yes, this does exist. 🤣

Good morning everyone! We wanted to create a place where our friends, family and customers (who generally become our friends!) could come and see what we have available or what we are doing, or currently planning to do. Please, if you like, or better yet love what we produce, please share and like our page and help spred the word about us.

We are currently raising all sorts of chickens and have our 2 emus, Fred and Wilma. We currently have 🥚's available. Today we will be starting a rather large garden to hopefully have produce available.

Thanks for liking our page and visiting!!!
