Next Generation Farmer




Eazson our 18 month old son loves all of our animals, especially the chickens and the milk cow.

Farming


I have been planting and rolling and watering the back pasture the last two days. Fun! I took a picture of all my heavy equipment. We truly are a mini farm now. Mini plow, mini seeder pulled by the mini tractor and the four wheeler pulling the mini roller. On top of that we have mini farmers!!!!

Farm Fresh Eggs



The Jacobs Homestead currently has 17 laying hens, one good ol hen named Blanch who is suppose to lay blue eggs-but doesn't. And one little tiny Old English Rooster named Big Jake.

We currently get anywhere from 9 to 12 eggs every day. Three hens are white egg layers and the rest are all shades of brown.

Eggs are $2.50 a dozen or $4.00 for an 18 pack.

We Start Again


I created this blog for my Garden and all natural product interests, However, it has now been recreated into the Jacobs Homestead homepage. We will give you updates on our growing family of beautiful children, existing animals and their new babies and all things growing, living and created here on the farm. We are going to try and keep you updated on farm fresh products that we have for you and also on the crafts and projects that we create by repurposing or recycling.

Please enjoy our every changing and exciting world here at the Jacobs Homestead.
