After MUCH deliberation and fantasizing, calculators and graph paper, bank account reviews and long talks with parents and friends – we’ve decided to go for it!
Unless something untoward happens in the next few weeks, this WILL be our new farm!

There is a LOT TO DO on this little farm. Outside, there’s 17 acres of land that will hopefully recover after being over grazed by horses and taken over by scotch broom. Inside there’s a first floor of carpet to be ripped out and cleaned up after, leaking faucets and shower fixtures to be replaced, rooms to be painted (eventually), windows to be replaced (eventually) and an upstairs to be massively cleaned and turned into my home office/guest rooms/ grow room/ lounge area. The roof needs to be replaced (to the tune of a very high dollar amount) and the siding will need a whole lot of elbow grease…..
But i think we love it! Look for homestead updates each weekend as we get to our projects. We’re hoping for a pre-Christmas closing date (after the original July 13th closing date we hoped for so long ago). Wish us luck, and feel free to leave us any comments with tips and suggestions as we struggle along in this new adventure – that we’ve been waiting for for SO LONG!
