After ten years of full time farming, I've decided to take a step back and make some changes.
At the end of November, I sold my last eggs. I'm letting go of raising poultry and egg production, probably for good. Had a great run with eggs and laying hens, but the intensity of time and management of running an egg busines is just more than I can give at this point in time. There's lots of joy in it, but also tons of stress and challenges. It's seven days a week, three times a day, everyday.
I'm really thankful to everyone who's bought my eggs, produce, and pork through the years. It means the world to me! Thanks for coming to the farm, buying our eggs at a grocery store, spending extra to use our eggs and pork in your restaurant, joining our CSA (what's up CSA folks!!), and otherwise supporting my dream. And an extra special thanks to all my friends, neighbors, family, and workers who have helped along the way.
I'm also scaling way back on selling pork. I may keep a bit on hand for myself and to sell at the farm, but not really pursuing it as I was.
Although I'm scaling back a lot, I still have other farm ventures ahead. I'm continuing to build up my meat goat herd, and I'm looking to grow a lot more heirloom corn. So, stay tuned!
Again, thanks so much to everyone who's bought my products and supported local ag these last ten years. I'm anxious to change but ready for a different pace. Holler at me, I'm around. ✌️
