I built a working homestead from scratch that now pays for itself. I started with a backyard flock and a dream and grew it into a 20-acre operation with over 4,000 birds, multiple livestock, and self-serve farm stands running year-round. We even completely rebuilt in a YEAR after a flood cam and wiped out everything from our flocks to our gardens.  All while raising four kids, staying present in my marriage, and keeping my relationship with Jesus at the center of every single decision.

This weekend on Lost Sheep Farm, we had a full-on homestead adventure — we butchered chickens, moved our butcher station, and kept the farm running smoothly. 🐔 It was messy, humbling, and full of lessons about family, faith, and hard work.
In this episode, I share:
How we streamline our butchering process and keep the workflow efficient
Involving kids in farm life — our five-year-old pitched in while our 12-year-old watched the baby
The spiritual lessons God teaches in the hard, messy work — including a reflection on Acts 19:13–16, where demons ask, “Jesus I know, and Paul I know about, but who are you?”
How knowing Jesus gives us authority, courage, and confidence, even in the most intimidating tasks
Moments of laughter, chaos, and gratitude that remind us God shows up in every detail

This week on Chickens and Farming Made Easy, I’m sharing how to plan and plant a productive fall garden even when your spouse is away, the kids are running wild, and the chickens are determined to sabotage your plans. From radishes and kale to garlic, lettuce, and carrots, I’ll show you how to get seeds in the ground fast — using whatever space or containers you have. Solo homesteading is totally doable, and I’ll prove it with real-life tips from our chaotic farm weekend.
