Visiting Heritage Harvest Home(stead)

Above is a picture of us with one of the grandchildren that dubbed us Grandma and Grandpa Farmer

We've had lots of calls recently inquiring about our products and asking for a visit to 'the farm'.  Today I gathered some  pictures of our farm which is also our home.  Keep in mind that we do not currently have a 'farm store'.  I wish we did.  That's why we ask that you make requests on what you would like to purchase so we can have it ready for you. Our 'on-line' farm store is here: http://www.localdirt.com/market_search-a230.html?vendorID=6377 

This is our home from close to the road.  The open area you see is now tilled up for our new potato beds.

Garden Beds

The garden beds when we first set them up

Chicken House with overnight enclosure, they are generally let out in the afternoons.  The fence in front is where our blackberries are along with a huge Echincia bed.

Goat barn and yard.  The goats currently sleep and are milked inside.  We hope to add an awning that will be enclosed before next winter for more bedding area.  The pasture is off to the right.  They go on pasture daily from late April through November.

The big barn is over a hundred years old, like the house, and houses mostly hay (although there is not much hay in there due to the drought).  Our son still has horses here and their shelter is in front.  In the back of the barn is the shelter for the buck goats, beef cow and our ole guard Llama from when we had lots to guard.   The animals behind the barn rotate on the pasture with the dairy goats.

The red barn is where the meat goats go for shelter.  They have a large pasture lot connected to this barn and the back of the chicken shed.  We are just weaning some meat goats in this picture.
