Bent Pine Farm Year 3

Here’s Year Three (Spring 2016 – Mar 2017) in a nutshell…rather large nutshell, but there you are.

The Tea Garden Project progressed, as we built the Tea Patio in the Tea Garden. Most of what we buy in now is fruit for the Kefir smoothies, so… We started a food forest with fruit trees and vineyard with Florida friendly Muscadine grapevines.

We built new Tilapia pools and began harvesting Tilapia…delicious! Expanded Pole Barn 2. Bred the three does, with Half & Half as the sire. We now have 8 kids for a total of 13 dwarf milk goats! (They are all for sale, trying FB and Craigslist.) The kids have been dehorned (de-budded) as necessary, except for Emma’s two, Reed and Sawyer…both bucks, but we waited too long.

Anyway, lots of things going on…see what you think.

Happy Homesteading,
T.
