Spring Farm Upgrades: Enhancing Life for Our Flock

posted on

March 1, 2024

Greetings from the Farm!

As we navigate through the twists and turns of rollercoaster weather, we're thrilled to share some exciting updates from the heart of our farm. With spring in full swing, we're diving headfirst into a series of farm improvement projects, each one aimed at enhancing the lives of our flock.

The Heart of the Farm: Our Chicken Brooder

First up on our list of upgrades is our chicken brooder barn. This humble structure plays a vital role in welcoming our day-old chicks to the farm, providing them with a safe and consistent environment to thrive. With fluctuating weather patterns posing a challenge for our young poultry, it's more important than ever to ensure they have a cozy space to call home during their formative weeks.

Investing in the Future

While farm improvements may come with their own set of challenges, we believe they're essential for the well-being of our animals and the sustainability of our operation. Despite the financial strain that often accompanies such projects, we knew it was time to take the leap and give our brooder barn the facelift it deserves.

Looking Ahead: Mobile Hoop Houses

But we're not stopping there! Our vision for a brighter future includes mobile hoop houses for our pastures, offering our birds more freedom and flexibility to roam and forage. With each step forward, we're making chores a little easier and creating a win-win situation for both our feathered friends and our dedicated team.

Join Us on the Journey

We're excited to share our progress with you every step of the way! Keep an eye out for videos, pictures, and updates as we embark on these transformative projects this spring. Your interest and support mean the world to us, and we're incredibly grateful for the opportunity to connect with you and share the story behind the food that nourishes us all.

Thank you for being a part of our farm family!

Real Food for a Stronger Year

Each new year brings a lot of noise about who we should be and how we should live. For the past few years, Renee has chosen to step away from resolutions and instead hold onto a single word that helps guide the year ahead. This reflection looks back at what last year’s word revealed, why simple and steady habits still matter, and how those ideas shaped something new we’re sharing from the farm as we move into another year together.

Christmas 2025

The weeks around Christmas are some of the fullest of our year. Full freezers, full days, full hearts. As we moved through the rush of holiday orders, winter chores, and time gathered around tables with people we love, we were reminded why this work and these moments matter. This reflection looks back on a season of hard work, shared meals, and deep gratitude, both on the farm and at home, as we step into a new year.
