Hello everyone! My family lives in the beautiful Adirondack Mountains and about a year ago we decided to jump into the world of homesteading. It's a significant learning curve, but we are having a great time learning everything. Whenever I would have a question, this website would often come up with answers so I finally decided to join.
We have 8 beautiful Buff Orpington chickens (7 hens/1 rooster) and we are picking up Silver Fox rabbits tomorrow as we will be breeding/raising those for meat. We have an aggressive garden layout planned for the spring and we are building raised beds over the winter to prepare for that.
Because we live in the forest, it's rare to find others who are homesteading, but I'm hopeful to find additional people in our local community that are becoming self reliant.
Although I'm here to learn from the veteran chicken-raising famlies, and most likely won't be able to add value yet... I'm a whiz in the kitchen just in case anyone ever needs a good recipe, or is just learning about sourdough, or is looking for a method/shortcut in the kitchen.
Looking forward to meeting everyone, thanks for having me!
