Raising Sheep and Goats: A Source For Natural Products

By Tiffany Leave a Comment

The search for safe, reliable products can be very difficult at times. We can't always get enough information to know whether the things we buy for our families will satisfy our standards for purity and quality.

Become a Farmer

By Tiffany 3 Comments

Perhaps you imagine that to be a farmer you must have a hundred acres of tillable land, a big red barn, cows grazing in a green field, rows of corn and a big flock of chickens in the barnyard. Yes, this is the most popular image conjured when one thinks of farming but it is only one version of farm life. Nowadays many people have added a few chickens to their household so they can enjoy farm fresh eggs. Others are growing green bean and strawberries in their backyard gardens.
