Our journey of raising chickens,gardening,wildlife, dogs and mountain living. We can food such as pickles,jams, and recently learned about bread!We are organic in every way.This year we ditched all the amendments we used to buy in spring to feed our gardens, we are reaping the benefits of the compost pile we started. The circle of sustainability is growing.Along the way one of our special hens laid the biggest egg in America. Figured we must be doing something right!

Red porch
It's amazing what a can of paint can do for the soul. Since we are on our front porch a lot it receives punishment all year long. I was getting pretty embarrassed by our collection of everything under the sun that had made its way there but never left. I have a collection of birdhouses and its getting to be too many and some are decorative and birds cant use them. I'm letting go of them....clean slate!! I found a gallon of barn paint that I forgot about from painting the barn and 2 coops last year. There is something special about the color red up against vast nature. I figured I'd spruce up the porch. It took me two days and another few to finish. I'm already in love with the color. My porch now has nothing on it but a rocking chair and dog bed!!!
