Why
Our aim is to be self-sustainable homesteaders raising and growing our own food and sharing that experience and knowledge.
Our intention is to work with Nature, not against it, acknowledging that we are not separate from the Earth but native to it and our actions have impacts. Making a conscious and ethical decision to take responsibility for our own existence and our children's. That responsibility includes producing food in a regenerative way We found raising animals to be very rewarding and would like them to be the happiest and healthiest they can be. Living free from toxins, safe from predators and medicating only when needed.
Our goal is to be as self sustainable as we can be while recognizing we don't have to do everything ourselves. We are part of a community whether it's geographically nearby or the communities we grew up in or the larger community connected through the Internet and shared interests. We want to share the experience of growing/raising food in a responsible way. Bringing local, better than organic produce and products to our community and partners.
In caring for ourselves and the Earth we want to continue to build self reliant skills and grow our interests. Creating paths for development for ourselves and those that are interested. We strive to grow our knowledge of the world choosing to be lifelong learners. We aspire to enjoy our lives, have fun and encounter the beauty around us.
