The Someday Farm

Some day Jesse and I have plans to have a Farm of our own. We both have different Ideas about it so it will take some time to work out the details. Part of the plan is to buy some land with an old farm house on it and remodel it on our own. We are also going to grow and raise our own food. We may eventually have our own milk cows. because lets face it dairy products are just going up. Almost $4 a gallon. And in my family we use a lot of milk. The plan is to have it in 10years. The farm house will need to have a lot of rooms because well we want a large family.

I am currently looking up different blogs so that we can do some research on the things we are going to do. Basically we have plans to where we no longer need to buy groceries or anything else and become semi- self sufficient. We definitely are going to have a couple of deep freezers to store meat in. Deer, Pig, Cow, Chicken, and maybe some others. We are also going to have a vegetable garden and laying hens. We will need a large pantry and cellar for the vegetables. I am working on learning to make my own breads so that wont be much of a problem and if we get milking cows we will have milk as well as butter and other things like that. I want to learn to make our own cheeses eventually. The furnace in our farm house will be an outdoor wood burning one.

I also plan on having a spot off my own. A rose garden. I just need to lose my brown thumb. Next year we are going to buy some tomato plant at the very least I am also going to try and grow my herbs to cook with…

Well I had better go its time for me to clean the floors.
