    Growing Everything You Eat

    That is so inspirational. I would love to read the article as well. I'm not sure I could personally do it, but I would like to grow more of what we eat around here.

    Your #1 profitable crop

    Our most profitable crop is corn. Obviously the season is over for that this year, so during the winter months we focus more on our livestock. We are looking to buy some more land in the coming years to grow soybeans.

    Unique Christmas Decorations

    There are farm-themed ornaments you can order from Amazon (you can find everything on Amazon, it seems). I've found many of ours through sellers on Etsy as well. I was browsing the Hallmark Keepsake collection, and they have a couple of horse ornaments this year.

    Unique Christmas Decorations

    I started pulling out our Christmas decorations because we put our tree up on Thanksgiving each year. We have a very unique tree.
