Evening peace on the farm ☺️💛. How cute are Star and Moon snuggled up to one another?! And of course my little girl Fern is cuddled right up to me. These animals are so sweet and peaceful. Someone told me that Nubian goats are noisy, but these girls are so calm.

Good morning on the farm… with Ivy! This morning my best little farm helper joined me in the morning goat chores. He helped fill the buckets with feed, clip them into place, brush poppy, and let the babies out ☺️. He sat in his camping chair while I milked Willow. It was a beautiful morning and I’m grateful for my assistant 💛🐐

Tonight I made 100% scratch-made gyoza and dipping sauce. Even the wraps were scratch made. Holy crap these came out SO GOOD and I’m super proud of myself. I honestly can’t believe I made something that good. Andrew and Ivy are busy demolishing all my hard work 😆

The morning routine with the goats ☺️💛 I missed recording a few elements, but you get the idea 🙃

It was another great day at the Farmer’s Market! We sold out of all quail eggs and herbs an hour early. I can’t wait for our strawberry mint to propagate - the smell is heavenly! Catch us again next Saturday, May 27 ☺️

I’ve been watering some volunteer California poppies and chamomile in this little fence crack for the past week and decided I should just seed the whole thing with native wildflowers. My favorite flowers and plants are always the ones that pop up on their own and surprise me. (You’ll see a volunteer calendula in the video too) I let the weeds grow and then I pull them for the quails to munch on so that’s why you’ll see a bunch.I’ve really learned to embrace the fact that weeds are just plants that haven’t realized their potential, so I tend to let them do their thing until they are big enough to be useful (like quail snacks). Please excuse my sad little “secret garden” area… the chickens got in while Ivy was playing and wrecked the bed 😩
