It appears that we have a weasel problem. Over the span of a week, we’ve lost 6 of our hens. It started with our oldest girl, Big Brown, then moved onto the two sexlinks, then 4 ISA Browns, one of which I had to dispatch because she’d been eviscerated, but left mostly alive. Truth be told, dispatching her was…
I’ve been giving a lot of thought lately to the very long summer that has been various farmers markets, and the unreal amount of work that we put into them over the past few months. We were a mainstay at the Houlton Community Market this summer, and will be again next year. Not only did we get in a…
Tuesday, May 2nd changed our lived forever. Sometime between noon and 2pm, there was suddenly a lot of wiggling going on in Robin’s nest box (have we updated you on who Robin is? It’s been too long since we’ve posted… lol) We were so very excited to find a total of NINE kits wriggling and squirming and looking like…

Indeed, we are very much looking forward to providing a great variety of veggies from our garden, but we’re not set up for winter growing at the moment. Will we ever be? Perhaps. Can you imagine having fresh vegetables (that don’t come from California) year-round? That is truly mind-blowing. In the meanwhile, all the bunnies are growing like weeds…
We’ve teased you with random photos of our “fluffle“, but our bunnies aren’t just faceless, nameless wool-producing machines. They are living creatures, each with a mind of their own, and amazing personalities. And they are a cherished part of our family. We constantly strive to give them bigger/better living quarters, and might give them a few too many treats…
It’s been nearly six months in the making, but we’ve got a start on our official web presence. What we hope to accomplish is to provide an interactive space for you, gentle reader, as well as share cool project ideas, photos, and even our web store. This has been an exciting journey so far, and we are looking forward…
