Goals, Values, Vision
It’s my dream to have a homestead, grow my own food, and have chickens. God, nature and animals are my peace and I want to create a home that reflects that. My son is homeschooled and will learn to live off the land, farm and help wildlife. We plan to be a pollination station to help support the pollinators. Overtime, I would love for it to be a space for other homeschool kids to learn and grow as well. It’s up to us to do what we can to preserve nature and I would love the opportunity to have the land to be able to do just that. City gardening is black fabric bags and buckets has been fun, but we are ready for more. Thank you for taking the time to read this and I’d be happy to answer any questions you may have. God bless you!

Conventional
I would love to do organic, but I am aware of cross pollination and would stick with conventional. We also plan to be a pollination station to feed the pollinators.
