Homegrown and Happiness

Homegrown and Happiness A small Urban Backyard Farm in the downtown area of Colorado Springs, Colorado. My name is Kellie Dodson and absolutely love my Urban backyard farm!

We have lived here for 21 years. I have 2 grown children and a wonderful son in law and am about to be a grandma. We are so very blessed. I home-schooled my two wonderful children and have learned much in the process. I have also found the Lords leading to make sure my family eats healthy. To do so, I have invested in my knowledge of foods and cooking to better serve this end. We grow our own vege

tables, drink goats milk and I grind my own wheat. I also currently play mamma to a small flock of laying hens and ducks who provide us with farm fresh eggs on a daily basis. We also our loving our bees. I have created this page to share all the information with my family, friends and anyone who will find it helpful as they bless their own families. "We are open only by appointment!"

🌩️ Golf ball-sized hail hit us HARD last night! 😱

Our yard took a beating — check out the damage! Shredded leaves, dents everywhere, and some real casualties from the storm. Mother Nature was NOT playing.

But we’re not getting caught off guard twice… We’re already prepping for round 2 that could roll in tonight! Come see how we’re protecting what’s left.

Who else is dealing with this crazy weather?! Drop a 🛡️ if you’re storm-proofing too!

Good Morning people! The urban farm is very, very busy right now. We have baby chickens, baby ducks, quail eggs in the incubator. Tracy is building things, 🤣. Gardens are happening and I could keep going. I have 2 black runner ducks- males that need a home. They are about 8 weeks and I want them to go together. Message me if interested!

🐣 The next chapter of our urban homestead is beginning!

Today we're starting the process of adding quail to our backyard farm. We just set our very first quail eggs in our new incubator, and now the countdown begins! ⏳🥚

We've raised chickens, ducks, bees, and grown a ton of food in our small backyard, but quail are a brand-new adventure for us. Follow along as we learn, make mistakes, celebrate successes, and hopefully welcome a bunch of tiny quail chicks in the coming weeks.

Have you ever raised quail? Let us know your best tips in the comments! 👇

Sometimes, life just needs to slow down. Sit back and enjoy what's around you. Sometimes, I just need to disconnect for a little bit in the quietness of the evening.
