For now I currently make jewelry while my husband works in welding. We are trying to recover financially so that we may have another farm some day. We operated from 2005-2007 when we lost our farm because of the inability to get any farm loans. We were a family owned & operated small farm that raised our livestock in a humane, natural and sustainable manner and plan to do so again in the future. We had Spotted, Duroc, Chester White & Crossbred hogs. We had 11 Breeds of chickens (Buff Orpington, White & Barred Rock, Ameraucana, Black Jersey Giant and Cornish X Rock) and turkeys (Standard Bronze, Bourbon Red, Blue Slate, Royal Palm, Large White), all of which are on the ALBC's Conservation List.

When we are able to return to farming, we will again try to use predominately heritage & rare breeds and use Sustainable Agriculture methods. This includes pasture, natural feeds, love, attention, independence from fossil fuels, and NOT chemicals, pesticides, artificial hormones, growth stimulants, sub-therapeutic antibiotics, or medicated feed.
