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.

Project Noah

PROJECT NOAH

This is a suggested schedule for accumulating a basic food storage.
Just some ideas – make it fit your family.
obviously you would purchase the necessary amount at that time rather than on the “scheduled week.”
Purchase the items listed per member of your family.
If your family does not eat a certain product then substitute for one that they will eat.
Some of the items do not have amounts so buy what you can.
If you continue with this each year and rotate items -you will accumulate a nice storage.
