Came home to two baby chicks. Mama did so good. Guess I need to name her and the babies! I only see two - we have a small coop coming this week to move them into until they are bigger. I think I have a couple more broodys that will be moving to the coop too. #babychicksarethecutest
Working on the farm - first blooms harvested and arranged - collecting eggs - making soap. Plans for another open house this summer and a farm stand grand opening. Can’t wait to continue working on getting beautiful things made and on the stand for sale! Please share us with your friends - we are just a short drive from Greeneville, Jonesborough, Johnson City and Erwin! #chestnutridgefarmtn #farmstandcoming #flowerstand #goatsofinstagram #smallbusiness #smallfarm
Today was a beautiful day for a wedding. Watching the guests enjoy the evening was a joy. #reception #microwedding #eastnweddings #chestnutridgefarmtn
My poor little hens are so lost. We had a massacre on the farm Thursday. I came home from a long day of travel to find two small dogs in the pasture. When I went to try to get them I found they had killed my sweet Betty White. Went a little farther to find Henry - our beautiful red rooster barely alive - and at bedtime there was one more missing that we found the body of today. All because an irresponsible neigbor didn’t keep their dogs (who had done this before) contained. The remaining hens here who free range outside of the chicken area are so lost without their fierce leader Henry. Farm life is tough some days. #chickenlossesaretough #chickenloss #chestnutridgefarmtn #farmlifenotalwayseasy
