This farmer turned TEN! We bought the farm the same summer she turned 5 and started school. The years are running away from me, but each day we work and learn together.

We set some lofty goals together this year.

1. establish our own bee colonies.
2. obtain an LGD for security and predator control.
3. learn how to milk our cow.

We are so proud of this young lady and her willingness to work hard - not for her own benefit but to help her family and nourish the Earth.

We love you, peanut 💕💕💕

🌡️🌡️🌡️Checking in to let y’all know we’re doing alright. We are HOTT and doing our best to keep the livestock cool. I’m trying to smile so I don’t cry. So far so good. Today should be the last of this heat wave.

I’ve been keeping track of my fluid intake and am averaging over 2.5 gallons daily. It’s still not enough. Replacing my sodium is key for me to be able to put in the hours needed in this weather. Plus the after lunch dip in the pool to reduce my body temperature. Be safe, y’all 💕

🎉 🦴Birthday boy! BIG RED turns 1️⃣ We love this big guy and he is good at his job! TYSM Red loves raw milk, eggs, and bone broth. He weighs around 120 # and still has another year of growing ahead. His fave toy is an old chewed up plastic milk jug. You’ll always find him with a collection of sticks in his room. Since joining our team we haven’t lost any stock to predation👏 He has never busted out of his pasture, left his charges or the farm. He is bird safe, kid safe, and warns us about strangers. He does not resource guard. He doesn’t bark incessantly. He does not have any skin, allergy or health issues. He has never been inside a house. We do not have any trouble with trimming his nails or grooming him. We did a solid year of research before we decided on as the right LGD breed for us, then we found a top notch breeder of working GPs who we could count on for mentorship. We spent the $ for a quality animal, and we put in the time with our boy. He is a big investment for our farm and being able to live closely with nature. It is working out beautifully. We love you big guy!

Today we trimmed the cow’s hooves. I asked 8936 questions, took notes, and closely observed while chugging my half gallon of post-chore hydration water (summer is here y’all!). The girls did great! No fussing. I walked them through the chute on their halter ropes. The chute is then tilted and raised with the animals supported and secured. It’s wild to see the full underside like that at eye level. The process only took 7-8 minutes per cow. Wishing I had a before picture for comparison!

New life is feeling extra special this summer. Welcome little ones. Thank you momma hen.

There’s new products coming to the farm shop in June! I’m also working on a workshop!

These will be announced via email 🐮🌱☀️

You can subscribe for email updates at everfieldfarm.com .

⭐️IMPORTANT: This email list is also the ONLY place I can safely talk about our plant medicine with out risk of losing my accounts! I haven’t seen anybody else out there growing herbs like this 🫶 sustainable + regenerative, like nature intended. It’s why they slap (as the kids say)!

I have not deleted this app off my phone in a while. Too long probably. I need a break. Much love 💕

I asked what was in those pockets. Dangerous — I know. It’s Red’s fur. She told me she has a secret collection of it in the house.

Our selfies are getting better 🫶😅Today we walked on the halter. She’s not broke to it yet. - Stands tied like a champ.
- Enters the chute on her own. - Doesn’t even blink while I take off the day time halter and put the rope one on for training.

She’s relaxed while being brushed, lifting feet, and having her udder rubbed. She’s comfy with kids, music, Big Red… We’re working on leading now. Making progress everyday on teaching Rosie the ways of life. It’s important to me that our animals are trained beyond my day to day needs. It means they can be successful and unbothered in a wide range of scenarios. This is cow #5 for me, but my first dam-raised one to train up.

The last push of Spring transplants😅 Another ~500 flowers in the ground! Now I have just enough time to start harvesting our herbs, spring veggies, and w**d some beds before the next batch of transplants are ready to go in. Feeding the Earth and humans simultaneously ✌️ ❤️ 🌱 thanks for the pic

We put ~500 calendula babies in the ground this afternoon. We only sell what we grow here. We only grow what our ecosystem can support. We grow plants that feed the soil, pollinators, and improve biodiversity. It’s intentional. Full of love and sunshine. Try it for yourself: everfieldfarm.com/shop
