Hi Friends! It’s Friday the 13th! Luna’s favorite day! She is about jump over Casey! What she doesn’t realize, he is oblivious that Luna is even there!
Hello my friends! I often wonder why horses like hay better than fresh grass? I understand wet hay is easier to chew but this is dry! I don’t really question it but I know they love it!
Hello Friends! My friend has a homestead in the next town where she grows several different flowers, vegetables, raises ducks, chickens, and sells her eggs. Her place is amazing! I’m in awe how she does all of this!
These are the gladiolus that I bought from her last week.
These are her sunflowers. The sunflowers last much longer at home than the gladiolus flowers!
I’ve already decided that I want a vegetable garden next year! I’m going to start of small and see how I do!
Hello Friends! My son was busy in the northern horse field setting up a new electric fence and he wasn’t the only one busy out in the horse field!This is what the bees were busy with. This is called a Pasture Thistle. This is one thing the horses do not eat in the field but they are beautiful!This is my son connecting a new electric fence so that the horses do not escape! He is a big help to me around the farm when he is not in school teaching! Lucky for me it is summer vacation!Here he is inspecting the whole line. I think it’s a lot of work but with fall right around the corner and the grass going away the horses get board and try to escape. My son says it’s easy!!
This little Angel was a gift about 20 years ago! I happen to love Angels and this Angel greets everyone that enters the farm!
I always think that faith is what you can’t see but something that you feel.
We cut back a lot of trees these past few weeks and this is where I have faith that these trees and shrubs will come back next spring. I know you have to trim back but sometimes my partner will give them a real good trim!
Lilacs with a trim!
This looks horrible but next Spring it should be fine! Faith!
I am definitely a country girl that loves to garden, quilt, preserve, hunt, and read. I love my family more than anything in the world. I live with my husband of fifty years. We have a son, daughter, granddaughter and grandson. We live on a 500+ acre farm in Virginia with about 75 cows & bulls, thirty chickens, and three dogs.
This site is about my life as a farmgirl, wife, mother and grandmother. We have a beautiful granddaughter and the cutest grandson. We own two farms in Craig County Virginia, leasing one and raising beef cattle on the other.
