We are proud to announce that our first article has been published in this month's issue of Backyard Poultry Magazine!  You can view the article here.  If you are into chickens, this is a great publication.

Backyard Poultry

It is hard to believe that this vision started just two years ago and look at us now.  We have 13 chickens, an incredible organic backyard fruit and vegetable farm and an enormous fan base!  Thank you everyone for your amazing support, we could not have done it without you!  (you all know who you are!)

Thank you for visiting our site!

(Make sure you check out the What's Growing section)

Our vision of protecting farmland continues.  We are slowly updating our site to bring you resources about Wildlife rehabilitation (check out the blog section), links to other farming related sites as well as keep you up to date on what we are doing in our own backyard farm.

We now offer a product line where all proceeds support our research on dense backyard farming techniques.  This year is going to be a huge success with Tomatoes and Peppers.  If you would like a free seed sample packet, email Cat and we will get one right out to you.  

Since this is harvest time it may take a day or two for us to respond to inquiries, but be patient, ALL questions will be answered.

Remember...... 

 Our nation is in danger of losing more and more farmland as urban sprawl takes over.  It is important for people to keep these skills alive.  We MUST have control over where our food comes from and what better way than to grow it right on your own land.  It does not take a great deal of room to have a well producing kitchen garden. 

Have you Got Farm?

Happy Growing,

 Cat Andre
