Finally got around to harvesting our "Strawberry Popcorn" after they dry out it'll be perfect for movie nights warm inside. 🍿 🎥

Another processing day done!
Successful day harvesting our Cornish Rock Broilers with some friends and family. I'm very thankful that we are able to do this for ourselves and our family providing more than enough chicken to support us through the year ahead.

All washed up and ready for Thanksgiving 🦃
Of course I didn't grab pictures of River, though she enjoyed the bath even more than Mila.
Hope you all enjoy your weekends, spend some time with family and friends and find something you're thankful for.

We are over the halfway mark at 5 weeks old on these Cornish Cross broilers. They're turning out really well and have put on a ton of size. In a few more short weeks our hard work will have paid off and our family will have chicken for the coming year in the freezer.
Raising our own food started with raising chickens and eventually expanded into a few other varieties of animals and it's something I hope to always be able to do for ourselves. The control over what all goes into the animals along with providing the animals with the best nutrition I can provide in the best atmosphere i have available to them, makes everything worth it and that dedication is returned to us through the nutrition in that animal. Even in the smallest of ways I think everyone could be a little more self reliant, growing a few vegetables even inside under a grow light all the way to some scale of backyard meat birds or rabbits.
With the costs in the stores these days it's something we owe to ourselves.

First day and night out for our broilers. The 4 week mark hit and the brooder was starting to get a little tight for all 57 birds. Fresh grass, bugs grubs and anything else they can forage with their feed and water will have the development of these birds take off from here. Daily they will be moved to a fresh spot in the safety of their tractor where they can forage, move around and enjoy the fresh air along with the current not so favorable weather lol. With each move leaving behind fertilized pasture improving our soil, and our grass.
4 more short weeks and these birds will be ready for processing and will feed our family for the year ahead.
If you have any interest or questions about raising broilers in your own backyard feel free to contact us with any questions you might have. Definitely something more should be able to do these days!

The end of summer harvests, preparations, and of course some coffee. Still lots of nectarines coming in on the trees, some late apples, peppers, pickling cucs and beans among others. Broilers this year have been pushed later this summer and are finally getting ready to get out to pasture in the coming weeks as long as the weather holds up. It will sure beat processing in the excessive heat of mid August lol. Our Rams are ready for the freezer and seems this fall will be bountiful to provide throughout the year to come.
Each year seems to be a learning experience as we fine tune the things we do to make things more efficient and simplified so we can better reap the fruits of our labour... Literally.

🍑 NECTARINES
Finally getting ready for harvest on these four
Golden Prolific Nectarine Trees. Been a long wait since spring to finally get a sample today. These trees are a particular favorite of mine and what started me into the whole fruit trees and gardening thing.
