Welcome to our new blog!

Hello! Welcome to our blog! We are Heather and Craig, and we live on a farm.

This is not our farm.

Ok not like a real working farm with cows and corn and cockadoodledoo. But our farm is cool. It's an old, 12 acre horse farm complete with old barns, horse corral and lots of character.

And by "character" I mean that there is old shit everywhere and it is a lot of work cleaning this place up. But we're working on it.

So this blog is going to be about our adventures in living on a farm. We're not "farmers" per se. We just live on a farm. And we're doing the "farm" thing by growing our own vegetables, trying our hands at grapes and beekeeping.

We are also proud parents to our fur babies Roger and Vixen, both labs. Sometimes I'll blog about them.

This is also our first house together. We moved to the farm in November of 2011 from a one bedroom apartment, so we're figuring out basic homeownership too. Oh did I mention that our charming little farmhouse is over 200 years old? (hello frozen pipes and creaky floors... and probably ghosties) It's been quite a ride.

So that's what our blog is going to be about: our adventures in farm country- home repairs, landscaping, container and ground gardening, the dogs and the bees.

We hope you enjoy! By the way, it will mostly be me writing. Craig will "guest comment" as he says.

Until next time,
-Heather


oh and PS, my camera is on the fritz, so I'll post pictures soon.
