    You can’t be stopped girl! Bravo!! Sounds like innovation and determination is key!

    My fruit trees are still babies and I can lift feed bags with the best of em but time is working against me and it won’t always be that easy. The way you do things to get the job done makes me smile cause you’re unstoppable!! 😎

    None of us know what tomorrow will bring but I feel confident now that if something limits me, it won’t stop me.

    Thank you!

    Hey! Thanks for your response and suggestion! I hope that your sweetie maintains her interest!

    As for neighbors… well – I have the best farmer’s tan on our road! lol I really never see many of them outside doing anything. I have one neighbor that does the whole farming thing and he’s who I turn to for tractor jobs (at least until I can get one), and I have to send friendly reminders often to get the job done. Others only come outside to get into their cars and off they go – and one REALLY likes the pharmaceuticals sooo, yeah.😕

    That would be awesome to live in that type of community though!!

    If y’all get this going and will travel to TN, I’ll be a very happy customer!! You’re right, I would trust another homesteader before a big butcher!!

    That’s such a great idea!! I had heard of them, forgot where, but I tried to find mobile butchers or even regular butchers to do chickens with no luck!! I live in Northeast TN and like I just told @BigJohn I was told it was illegal in TN?? Who knows! The regular butchers won’t do anything smaller than a goat. Please keep me updated on what you find out!

    And no ma’am! …you are NOT alone! 😉

    Thank you so much for the commendation and I reciprocate it back to you! I truly admire people that despite of medical hardships, they keep on keepin’ on!!

    Aren’t you just stuffed full of great ideas!! I would like to see all of the things you mentioned come to pass! We’re certainly not living in the days of being able to leave your doors unlocked but I agree, if we could find that fine line… it would be perfect! I’ve tried to find a butcher for chickens and people have told me that it was illegal in TN?? When I heard that, I thought, boy have I gotten myself into a pickle or what?! 😂

    How cool is that?! I have a first sub and haven’t started yet!! Whooo Hooo!! 🤩Thanks friend!! Every encouraging post I read keeps me fueled and keeps me busting it out when I don’t feel like it. THANK YOU to YOU and to EVERYONE!!

    Yep, I’m right there with ya!

    Mine will build or help build the infrastructure that I need for the critters though. Maybe find an aspect of the whole thing that he would feel useful and that he would enjoy?

    Since he’s not down with larger animals for whatever reason, if it became necessary, you could always swap a couple of chickens for some cow or pig meat.

    My hubbs refuses on having pigs so that’s what I plan to do for bacon if it comes down to it. 😉

    Aww! What a precious relationship y’all have! Reading that just made my heart smile! I love it! Maybe I’ll read that passage again, (one of my favorites as well), but this time out loud to see if I get a similar response! ❤❤
