Ideas for Building a Budget Friendly Goat Barn

Ideas for building a budget friendly goat barn

Building a goat barn or shelter doesn’t need to be expensive to be functional – and it can still look GREAT, even on a budget! Our first goat barn (see Building the Goat Barn) turned out really well, especially after we fixed up a few little mistakes (see 3 Mistakes to Avoid When Building Your Goat Barn). […]

Fresh Tomato Bruschetta

This is SO tasty, especially when served on a freshly toasted baguette or crusty French bread slices. We don’t often splurge on those extra “carbs”, but the bread really makes this dish! However, if you are watching your carbohydrates, then try this bruschetta on scrambled eggs, or even in an omelette. The recipe is similar […]

Oven-Roasted Tomatoes

Oven Roasted Tomatoes

These tomatoes are FANTASTIC to use on pastas, spaghetti squash, or my new favourite, Zucchini Noodles; or use over a pot roast, in stews, or wherever else you might have previously used a can of tomatoes or tomato sauce! These keep for months in the freezer – packed in handy, easy-to-store freezer bags – and bring […]

Fresh Tomatoes with Olive Oil & Balsamic Vinegar

Tomatoes with Olive Oil & Balsamic Vinegar

A delicious way to use your fresh tomatoes. We love this side dish so much, that it’s always the first thing we do with our tomatoes and basil leaves in the summer. We have even compromised and used “store-bought” tomatoes, if ours weren’t ripe when the basil is ready, or use dried basil when our fresh leaves […]

The BEST Tomato Salsa

The BEST Tomato Salsa

Lots of extra tomatoes? Jalapeño peppers just begging to be picked? One of the tastiest (and easiest) ways to use them up is MAKE SOME SALSA! This recipe will keep in the fridge for several weeks, but for larger batches, try freezing your salsa, or better yet, this recipe works great for canning (REALLY – it isn’t hard to do with the right equipment!).

What To Do With Your Extra Tomatoes

What to do with your extra tomatoes

So you have TOO MANY tomatoes and don’t know what to do with them all? It is really a great problem to have – all those garden-fresh tomatoes – but unfortunately they don’t last that long once they are ripe! Here at our farm we always plant several different kinds of tomatoes, but it is hit-or-miss as to […]

5 Tips for Goat Fencing for Your Miniature Goats

5 Tips for Goat Fencing for Your Miniature Goats

When we started researching the type of fencing needed for our Nigerian Dwarf and Miniature Silky Fainting Goats, we were CONFUSED! Much of the advice we found was intended for livestock fencing, or at best, for larger breed goats. Although a lot of the information was useful, we found it just wouldn’t work for containing our LITTLE goats, and keeping them […]

Using a Herbal Dewormer for Your Goats

Using a Herbal Dewormer for Your Goats

Internal parasites (worms) are a common problem in goats, and can lead to other serious health issues. To keep your goats in good health, they will need to be on a regular deworming schedule. As this is such an important aspect of goat health care, there is a TON of information out there about various deworming […]

3 Mistakes to Avoid When Building Your Goat Barn

3 Mistakes to Avoid When Building Your Goat Barn

We built the cutest little goat barn (see our post, Building the Goat Barn). However, CUTE does not necessarily translate to STURDY! Although most elements in our barn design are standing up well to our bouncy little goats, there were a few things that JUST DIDN’T WORK OUT. Every day we are learning a little more about what […]

Really BIG Chicken Eggs

Really BIG Chicken Eggs

In the last month, our chickens have laid three really BIG eggs. There were two that came within days of each other, and the third was laid just this week. Our fresh eggs are usually stored for a few weeks before we eat them, so the first couple of BIG eggs were out in the garage […]
