“March” is Upon Me!
Hello All You Fans of The Farm!!!
March has already brought me balmy, breezy, sometimes rainy but dreamy days, and then last night and TODAY thunderstorms! -
But *SPRING-TIME* is really HERE now, with new grasses, bitty flowers and budding wild flowers!
Yes! *March* is HERE! And it means the celebration of my 30th Anniversary on March 15th!
A celebration of our love and of the Daughter & Son and 4 grandsons that God gave us! (Another grand-baby is due this June!)
A celebration of this farm and the cozy house that God gave us!
A joining together in agreement for an “even longer road” of LOVE, LIFE, and HEALTHY LONGEVITY ahead together!!!
The Farmhouse & The Land-
Well we got that new fence-line made to enable the pastured-laying-hens to peruse the pasture better without being tempted to visit me at my front door steps and leave me the signs of their visit. (smiles!)
And yesterday the weather was just perfect with its gray skies for burning brush! You can see the back of our old farm-house from this side of the bonfire.
And here we are, down to just ashes, and with a beautiful view of the “Back Four”.

I think Tessa is sooooo very beautiful!!!
The Pastured-Laying-Hens -
My small flock of 50 hens are doing great and laying bigger eggs because they are 1-1/2 years-old now, and I just put 50 fertile eggs from my girls into the incubator this morning to hatch out and raise-up to be this winters egg layers!
The Silky Chickens -
The are so majestic here beside their pretty cedar cabin!
How I love my Silkie Chickens!!!
And a new batch of baby Silkie chicks hatched just last Saturday morning!!!
Here is the link to my website for more about them: My Silky Chickens
The Garden -
I did get two rows of potatoes planted but the garden has mostly just been on hold due to the very cold February we just passed through, but I have been enjoying a weekly harvest of fresh Spinach and baby Collards while waiting for the cabbage, cauliflower and broccoli because the cold weather is keeping them on pause.
The Nigerian Dwarf Dairy Goats “Genevieve & Gisele” –
“Genevieve & Gisele” are getting so HUGE in their late pregnancy!!! Yes! We are down to the last few weeks of waiting for those adorable kids to be born!!!
My Health Commitments -
I’ve returned to my old passion of encouraging women in their health and so I created a page for it on my website: Thoroughbred Woman
I am so committed to eating BETTER, drinking MORE WATER, taking DAILY vitamin supplements and exercising MORE this year that I created a fan page on FaceBook!

1 Thessalonians 4:11-12 – “Make it your ambition to lead a quiet life, to mind your own business and to work with your hands, just as we told you, so that your daily life may win the respect of outsiders and so that you will not be dependent on anybody.”

Ants live a very sustainable life!
