Did you miss me?
I I have spent a few years getting situated here in the new homestead. Although I am no longer located in Athens (Only 10 miles from downtown) I am still contemplating using the same name. I feel that maybe it would be cheating a little bit, but I do love the name. An alternate name I was thinking of was Papa Jack's Farm. Named after my fist rooster.

Papa Jack |
I think Papa Jack's Ranch has a better ring to it, but I do not have a ranch. We no longer have Papa Jack.
It has been an eventful couple of years; Roll the highlight reel:
|
Bought a house |
|
New baby Alfie
|
|
Bought then sold some goats |
|
Got some chickens |
...And so on. We are now in our third year at the new homestead. My garden is much larger than when I started gardening 5 years ago. I have opted to employ the
Biointensive gardening method developed by John Jeavons. Though not strictly adhering to the principles set forth by Jeavons, I feel it is a good basic framework.
I plan to use this space as a public diary of progress and setbacks and profits and losses and all. Good luck to me and hooray for homesteading!
