Rocky Road Farm

My Goal
My goal to raise quality animals, meat and eggs for both my family and yours.

We'll have chicks, turkey poults, ducklings, goslings, & both eating and hatching eggs. A few adults for the freezer and for breeding.
Also, we'll have Kathadin/Dorper hair lambs, Pygmy and Pygmy/Nigerian Dwarf bottle kids, and possibily a couple of mini &/or full size Nubian kids. Also, Colored New Zealand Rabbits for meat and breeding and Lionhead bunnies for pets.
Full breed heritage hogs and Pot Belly Pigs.
Several people are requesting Pot Belly Pigs for the smaller homesteads.

I will also be putting in a garden this spring to start raising vegetables to can and barter for other vegetables/fruits we could use.
Another goal is to start a fruit orchard for our use and to barter/sell. So keep watching for that in the future.
If there is any type of animal you're looking for email us. We may know of someone who is raising what you're looking for.

First snow of 2011


We had our first snow of the year on the 20th. We have 5 inches and it's still all over the place. Usually it melts away within a day but not this time and I've hear on weather.com that we're suspose to get more tonight and tomorrow night also.
Yikes!!!
I hope this means lots of green pasture this coming spring and summer and the hay field grows bales and bales of fresh hay for the coming winter.

    It never fells after we get a beautiful snow, it will rain a few days later and make the barn yard a total mud pen. Guess that's appropriate though as that's where the hogs live. I should name it "Hog Heaven".
