A Slick New Year On The Farm

posted on

January 2, 2021

Welcome to 2021 :)



So if you didn't pick up on it in the video I spent hours busting ice off of our fences. Hahaha several miles of them. Thankfully only a few animals had accidentally wondered out by accident (they were not far and none of them had left the farm so that was good!). By lunch all the cows and sheep had some warm hay to lay on and eat and all the critical fences were back up Yay!

And along the way I had some fun knocking down ice castle weeds with a fence post ( yes my boys really enjoyed this as well, I just couldn't help myself and had to join in; honestly it was great stress relief on an otherwise pretty crazy day)

My hat goes off to Roy our very talented delivery driver who managed to safely navigate the roads to ensure that all the Fed From The Farm families would still get their nutrient rich food at the buying club pickups that weekend. 

Chris braved the icy roads too and took a break from getting our on farm processing going to help me get all the cows and sheep hay.

It was a full first day of the new year on the farm but It was a good one too. Challenges are not things to loathe they are opportunities to grow!

Blessings

Our Hens Today

What did you think?One of my favorite things about the hens is just how friendly they are. They run up just to see what's new and haha to see if I scared up any bugs. It's not just great for the hens and the land though its also great for the families who enjoy our eggs. The result of this truly pasture raised regenerative model for raising hens is some incredibly nutrient rich eggs! Our growing family eats eggs for breakfast nearly every day but in spite of our 5 children's ravenous appetites for our eggs right now we have a seasonal abundance (it happens almost every Spring) and so we are offering  Free Eggs For A FriendThey are completely free.All we ask is that you don't use them for yourself, but instead give them away to family or friends that are really interested in nourishing their family well. It's a win win. They get to enjoy the best nutrient rich eggs available and get a connection to their very own farmer!Give Free Eggs For A Friend ==>NOTE (If you are currently utilizing our home delivery option for getting our pasture raised eggs since you can't order them singly, if you give one to bless another family just email myfarmers@fedfromthefarm.com and we can credit your account for you :)Thank you for supporting and sharing about our pasture based farm. It is an honor to serve you from our farm's bounty!
