Welcome to our Farm

Chicken

this is one of my favorite chickens. She is a White-Crested Black Polish Hen

Ridgetop Farm, is a small 5 acre plot of land, that contains our house and 2 barns, a small 2 1/2 year old Apple Orchard, which also contains a couple of pear trees, and in the spring we will be adding some cherrie trees. The small raised garden bed area, where I attempted to learn how to gorw veggies, Will be expanded in the fall so that we have more room for veggies and of course a big ol’ Pumpkin Patch ( Fall is my favorite, that’s why so many of “crops” are fall based).   As far as Animals go we mostly raise chickens, however we do have a goose as a flock protector, we use to have 2 but one passed away in the winter.  In the spring and summer we raise a few turkeys for holiday dinners.

I keep trying to start this blog, and never get very far, so,  I figured I’d give it another go.  I am hoping to post about different subjects periodically, post photo’s, reciepes and books.  I hope you follow along on our journey to farmerhood.
