I wanted to start this blog to write about what is happening on my little place. Some people call it a homestead, others a mini farm. I call my little acre of property home. We moved here in February of 2003 busy with life, a career and just being consumers.
Today we want to be as self reliant as possible, provide as much food for ourselves and live as cheaply as possible. Currently we have a garden that for the last three years we've been improving the soil and expanding. It sounds like next year we will be expanding it again. We also have 8 chickens that we get eggs from every day. In a later post I might throw up some pictures and discuss the building of the little mobile chicken coop I converted from a VERY large dog house.
We are now researching and discussing adding both meat rabbits and milking goats to our little desert homestead. Follow us in the journey of a desert rat and his family and you'll see what develops....
