Hey Y’all!

I'm Amanda, a mama of four wild things and a growing herd of animals. We just built a farmhouse on our 13 acres of countryside in North Carolina, and are on our way to transform worn out tobacco pasture into a diverse landscape of animals, veggies, orchards, and grapevines. Join me on the farming journey! Read More…

I was drenched in sweat before 9am after working in the garden. It is decidedly not a good day to make a slow simmered bolognaise, but I’m so ready for fall-ish dinners.

And I had a bag of chicken livers from our homegrown chickens that needed to be dealt with. I hate liver. But I refuse to let our animals go to waste (and organ meats are packed with nutrients). See my stories if you’re interested in easy-to-use liver!

Intense beauty amid heartache. Last week I had to cull one of our laying hens who never quite recovered from sour crop. She deserved a dignified death, but it’s never easy being the one who makes that decision.

I don’t wish it away- not for one second. There’s so much beauty in the sweat and tears that build a farm, an intensity that was lost to me before we began growing all the things. #chooseyourhard

We put the girls back on pasture with a moveable fence. Best of both work! Fresh bugs to eat and they can’t destroy the gardens! #pasturedeggs #wildsunshinefarm #homegrown #backyardchickens #buildthesoil #farmlife #farmlifebestlife #cedargrovenc
