Navigating a New Path

The time has come to transition to a new path.  

Our plan when starting this adventure in the RV over 3 years ago was to find someplace to retire, just what we were going to do in retirement was still a little fuzzy.  During our adventure we saw many beautiful places, met some wonderful people and ate some darn good food.  So much so we both need to eat grass for a few months to lose some of this extra baggage.  Anyway, on the road my food allergies flared and I found some information about farm raised seafood I didn't know.  Like they feed seafood a pellet made out of mostly corn.  I found this out when eating seafood on the Gulf Coast and got a raging migraine for 3 days.  Tom finally realized this whole allergy thing was truly for real and our discussions about Organic Farming began.  That is how we came to find the land we now call our own.

We will start with feeding ourselves and work into doing Farmers Markets, possibly a farm store and becoming an organic producer for local restaurants and co op markets if possible.  

The new focus of this blog will be toward the building of our farm and new life.  Becoming self sustainable, practicing organic farming, and making most of our own goods.  Tom will do the planning of buildings, fencing and all things mechanical. We will both do the animals, planting, and picking.  I will do the recipes, canning and soap making.  This will be more than a full time job I know but really what else is there to do but enjoy this beautiful earth.  We hope to give back to our community and be an asset to our neighbors.  

So the adventure begins....

We hope you'll follow us in this new chapter of our lives.  Maybe we can all learn a little something along the way.
