About us

Thank you for visiting our page!

We are a family of 9 and 3 plus one angel. We started our homestead journey r finding out one of our adopted kids had horrible intolerances to both lactose and gluten. We have always had chickens for eggs. But then we added goats for milk and meat, turkeys, quail, swine, and rabbits. And our HOMESTEADING JOURNEY began!

We rely on our hard work to eat more naturally… We know where our food comes from and appreciate that. Our goal is making the “simple” life, our way of life.
