The most novel thing I did was freeze dry ice cream & eggs ( about 12 whole eggs on one shelf, plus 24 egg whites on the second shelf and 24 egg yolks on the third shelf ).

I have not lost any produce since buying it. I purchased a 3-shelf Harvest Right about 3 years ago. The other room currently has baby ducks & chickens under the heat lamp, plus storage for my Market tent, tables, etc. One is an “above ground root cellar / dba canning room” where I keep all spare jars plus my canning for both personal consumption & for Farmer’s Markets. We just finished building my She Shed & Greenhouse, and so have winter veggies growing in the Greenhouse now. I am now looking to get some nut trees in the ground this month. This round of chickens & ducks for eggs is 2 years now in production.

When we went fallow, we switched to Angus feeder calves. I am totally impressed and wish for you all the best in your 2022 Goals. Lots more about our small farm dreams in the video below! What are YOUR goals for 2022?

Prioritize growing as much as we can of utilitarian crops.

Prioritize fermenting and freeze drying produce.

Replace old hens in flock with new chicks.

Replace breeding ewes (old ewes will live out their retirement years on the farm).

Let me paraphrase for you, in case you've only got a few minutes to spare: Truth be told, we're deep diving back into our homestead this year with the same eagerness we started with almost a decade ago. Perhaps that's why I'm a bit long-winded in the video (sorry about that). As we march forward into 2022 as a small farm, I do have my eyes set on a few key goals and dreams. Like most of you, I look at New Years as an opportunity to reflect on what this last year has taught us here on our small farm and feel reenergized about what's ahead.
