Today after I got Cheeks all set up with food and water, I was trying to get the run done but the other girls are coming at me like mom, mom, mom, you brought us more food come on mom give us more food. I came back inside and checked on Cheeks and found out that she's an olive egger. She laid an...

So I have been trying to get the roosters processed but I ended up tossing them because I wasn't confident enough to allow anyone to eat them considering it took me so long to process one fully. One got away so I thought he would just start stinking up the property but no he's now under my porch...

Helped my granddaughter make some eco art.

This is a picture of my favorite pullet and sweetest cockerel. While I was sitting with the grandkids something scared them to death.

That's from today. Still have an even bigger spaghetti squash out there for me to get tomorrow

I got a spaghetti squash yesterday and picked 2 more today. I'm having spaghetti squash dessert tonight. I picked 2 pumpkins today and it looks like I will get some more for making more bread. I will also have enough squash for desserts.

I went out yesterday and watered the garden. Picked some more tomatoes and removed the peppers that looked like they were toast. Nothing in my garden this year has really been productive except the pumpkins and vining squash. I did get a decent potato harvest though. I'm going to try to...

I'm wanting to invest in a wood cook stove and cast iron pots and pans. I would love to be able to cook like that. It's just a way of surviving without depending on the grid.

Heating is lighting candles with a mirror behind them to generate heat during a cold spell. For the electric I have a generator but I also have my husband's big truck so I'm covered. Charging phones start vehicle for long enough to get a decent charge. The cold we have a pellet stove that can be...

HAPPY MOTHER'S DAY TO ALL THE MOMS. HAVE A GREAT DAY.

Mehawk and Whiner sleeping after a hard day of play

I'm supplementing them with powdered goats milk, dry dog food and canned dog food. They eat a lot of food plus their mom is still nursing them also.

Here's a picture of one of the chicks

Some of the corn and squash

Yes. I planted some bean seeds around the entire area that I planted the corn. I'm going to try to get more eucalyptus debris to put on top because the house we had years ago the horse pasture was amazing for growing corn. Lots of eucalyptus trees.
