About Me

My whole life has built up to my family and I living on a sustainable, responsible farm near the family that raised me in Cincinnati, OH. This would enable us to 1) live near family after 9 years of active duty service in the Marine Corps, 2) provide people in the southwestern OH area with another avenue of responsibly grown food (there are a few that exist; I ain't claiming to be the first), and 3) educate the consuming public about food and environmental responsbility. We hope to one day be able to have a fall festival featuring a corn maze, apple picking, hay rides, pumpkin patch, etc. You may have noticed a donation link on the right. It is going to cost us around $250,000 for us to start out and that isn't including the double-wide we will be living in. Any help you can provide would be appreciated. Thank you.

The First Egg!!! And the rest was history

Same breed of chickens, but two different looking eggs. Variety is the spice of life.

Before I broke these, the yolks stood up. Note the orange color especially in the right one indicating more Omega 3s.

My pile of purchased materials that eventually turned into a shabby first woodworking project/chicken coop.

Our first three chickens at 8 weeks. One buff Orgpington, Rhode Island Red and a Barred Rock.

Our old coop.
