Welcome to the Martinez Homestead! We started off homesteading in the suburbs raising quail and recently moved to the country to homestead on a little more land! Come along as we document our journey as first time homesteaders!
π update. As you can see our orphaned twin heifers are nearly fully grown π€π€π€π€ still cute as ever and love attention. They truly are like grass puppies!
The cow we took to the butcher returned. Final weigh in 405lbs. Three years ago I remember watching YouTube videos on βhow to start a cattle farm.β Itβs hard to believe the dream has been realized so soon! APTTMH!!
I woke up this morning and heard a loud moo outside our window. Thinking it was just our cows in the back being louder than usual I rolled over to try to catch more sleep LOL. My husband went outside to take the dog out and this is who greeted him ππ somehow these girls and one guy (nose up to the bedroom window whoβs voice I heard) got out of the pasture and into the backyard. My friend said some people have roosters to wake them up and we apparently have cows to do that πππ π
Creating a different currency in todayβs economy means using what you have to barter and trade! We traded several gallons of π₯ for a few hundred pounds of mulch! HalaluYHUH!
