$135 Galaxy Chest Freezer 7 cu ft in great condition works and functions like new. It does have a dent in the inside bottom.

This was used in our farm-store. We retired from farming, moved, and downsized. We do not need two freezers anymore.

As I process the last of the produce our farm produced this year, and eat the last of our eggs. I am letting it all sink in.

It’s hard being a farmer, and trying to juggle working where you live. You tend to work pretty much around the clock. But it’s also hard juggling 5 kiddos still at home with another grown child that still needs your help a lot due to medical reasons.

The reality is Andy and I really do LOVE farming. But we love our kids more. With lots of blood, sweat, tears, and sacrifice we built a profitable farm. But with that came extreme sacrifice to our family and kids. The hardest part of farming honestly was employees. Constantly trying to keep staff, or find staff, or reliable staff, it was the hardest part. I’ve heard the same thing from even friends who are self employed trying to find staff for their office. And yes we were paying more then most fast food places, and almost as much as Walmart.

Farming is hard and raising kids is hard. Putting the two together was honestly harder then I imagined. It’s okay to admit it’s too much. And we had to choose our hard. So even though we are not farming anymore we are still busy busy busy.

It has just changed to showing up for our kids, and transitioning out of farming. Actually seeing our extended family & spending time together.
We can always chose to farm again after our kids are raised, but we can’t go back to parenting young kids again.

There’s things I already miss about farming and a lot that I don’t. But I know that I will definitely miss all the amazing produce we grew. As we will be taking a year off of growing for ourselves. So you might see me at the farmers market in 2022.

Today I’m thankful for this journey of farming and all that it taught me. I truly do miss having a few chickens around. And oh how I miss the pig oinks and yes I miss Paul the pig.

But after a month of absolutely no farming our souls and spirits are starting to feel renewed. And we are at the beginning of feeling a bit more normal again.

Thank you for following our journey, and supporting us along the way.

This melts my heart. They kept saying it’s like Easter or a scavenger hunt. They would squeal with excitement every time they found ripe tomatoes or red or yellow peppers.

I’m secretly hoping it doesn’t freeze tonight so I can finish picking later this weekend. And spend next week & thanksgiving break prepping for the winter.

Now that everything’s ready for the auction tomorrow I feel as though I can breathe a bit. And if Mother Nature cooperates maybe just maybe I can relish in what feeds my soul. By prepping all the things for winter/spring/summer. As I don’t know where we will be next growing season and if I will even get a garden started that late in the year.

But tonight listening to the kids excited to pick and no complaining at all. I actually had to beg them to stop it was dark and they were using flashlights. 🤣 I thought to myself a big garden, and canning, freezing, and prepping what we grow is what they need to learn.

I look forward to our new growing chapter as a backyard gardener/homesteader if we must label things.

I just see it as lots and lots of great memories made. As they bite into a carrot or tomato that they grew that it brings them back to their childhood.

This I could never tire of. Watching my kids help pick to feed our family. We let our veggies go wild about 2 months ago. So it’s a small jungle.

Grady spent 45 mins harvesting carrots that haven’t been watered in months. While Mallory and I harvested cherry tomatoes. Even though a lot of them split they will still make amazing roasted cherries with garlic.

I will freeze the extra roasted tomatoes for use in the winter. I’m secretly hoping I can get one more harvest before winter arrives. But I already know how lucky I am to still be able to harvest these beauties.

This is what dreams are made of for me anyway. Feeding our family from our backyard.

Sneak Peek! Chicken plucker used only 3 times and stored in our shop. Black bulk bin feeder this was a life saver for our backs.

And Andy’s invention a pig catcher box. We used it to train piglets to go inside it and eat. This made it super easy to catch when it was time to wean. But also because you can move it with the tractor saved our backs and time.

We also used it to catch big pigs as well. This is how we moved our boar from one paddock to another for breeding.

The metal bars are removable to allow a wider opening. Or you can use one or both to make the entrance smaller.

And then use the pallet forks on the tractor to pick it up and transport.

All available Saturday November 13th. I will be doing a live video on Wednesday or Thursday depending on weather.

Stay tuned for a sneak peek of all the goodies.
