Just finished making some yogurt with some of my milk from Jammy. First time making it. Wicked excited to try it once it sets up some. This is what it’s all about. With food prices being insane, I’ll save A LOT of money not having to buy yogurt at the store.

My daughters video on how to plant a Big Bertha Pepper.

My 8yo daughter decided she wanted to make a video showing our veggie garden yesterday. She loves this garden and making this video brought her so much joy. She wanted to share it with others. I see more videos coming in the future.

One thing that is seriously lacking nowadays is children being involved in with where their food comes from. I personally feel children should know how to grow/raise their own food. It’s also a great way to get kids to try new foods. They are so proud of themselves of raising it, that they WANT to try it.

Children NEED to get dirty. Being in the dirt helps ground and balance them. My whole family has adhd and I can attest that everyone is more regulated with lots of time outdoors.

Having a working relationship with a vet is critical when having livestock in case of emergencies! Decided to check on Jammy last night right before going to sleep cause I was guessing she was gonna calf that day. Yup. Sure enough she was just going into labor. After a bit she got a vaginal prolapse. Woke up Chad and we called the vet at almost midnight. Our vet came out and got the calf out with a calf pull. She had to be stimulated but started breathing. Thankfully the prolapse was just caused from the placenta not breaking and pushing on the uterus so risk of it happening again is low. So very grateful for amazing vets and a healthy cow and calf. Gotta keep an eye on the little heifer as she’s still a little unsteady on her feet. Usually our calves are walking around but her birth was hard on her. Also Ryobi spot lights are so nice to have on hand for late night emergencies.
