Six months into this wonderful journey of homesteading. What have we achieved? We have:
⁃ Built cages, chicken pens and shelters for the animals.
⁃ Rebuilt several of the fences.
⁃ Welcomed into our farm: a cat, a dog, pregnant ewes, calves, cockatiel, two canaries and chickens galore, quails.
⁃ Set up a veggie garden.
⁃ Painted our kitchen, hallway and living area
We cannot omit the amount of time spent increasing our knowledge about homesteading, farming, gardening, etc. Thanks to the internet and the many homesteaders’ blogs, our learning curb is simplified.
Our biggest achievement, in my opinion, is taking the step into the unknown and making this new lifestyle happen. Nothing can replace the peace and serenity that we are enjoying. Sitting on our hilltop, admiring the surrounding beauty, breathing in the fresh unpolluted country air while taking the time to vocally thank God for His awesomeness, His creation, His love, His mercy and His grace towards us, is something that I deeply cherish.
In retrospective, there is nothing I would like to change. We are grateful for this opportunity given to us.
