About: | Twenty years ago, on opposite sides of the country two girls, one six and one 16 were learning about farms from their grandparents. The six year old was learning about gardening, how to plant one, when to harvest, how to harvest. The other was learning about cows as well as gardens, how to milk, how to grow and harvest timothy hay. Two years ago the two girls met online through a love of slash fiction and Harry Potter. A little over one year ago they met and fell in love. A year ago they moved in together. It wasn't too long after that that the elder of the two made a semi joking remark about how she'd always wanted to open an organic farm with bed and breakfast. She hadn't really been joking, more testing the waters. The younger gave her a shocked look, but after a moment said that would be a great idea. Now, a year later, with a rather large garden and We're starting now with chicken eggs (hence the addtional chickens) and heirloom tomatoes to sell at our local farmer's market. Over the winter we'll be enlarging our chicken coop and building a greenhouse. As well as gathering all the information we can and talking here about our dreams and what we've learned. Since we'll be posting it, we thought people might enjoy sharing our journey with us. This is the beginning of the road to The Peacock Ranch. | ||||||||||
