About Us:
We are a homeschool and homesteading family of 6 that farms our 1 acre permaculture organic acre in WA State. We are currently building on our new 20 acre homestead in North Idaho. We garden, seed save, raise meat rabbits, raise chickens, process our own meat, save our own seed, can, bake, and do just about everything that we can ourselves to achieve a self sufficient and debt free life for our family.

Best of luck in Idaho! I have one rescue bunny named Cadberry. He's my "outside work buddy." AKA Mr. Bunz. He cranks out the "magic bombs" for the garden! Last year, we had a volunteer Acorn Squash plant sprout next to the Koi pond. Guess what he likes to eat? Ans: Ancorn Squash! We also had Cherry Tomatoes too! They were organic fresh and SWEET. Gonna get the meat rabbit thing started soon... Luv the channel! :-)

There will be a learning curve regarding the zone change for gardening and temperature extremes that effect life besides regular chores. You are an excellent gardener and you've proven your skills for animal husbandry. I'm excited for your new adventure and I know you have the love and energy together to become more sustainable. See you later!

I absolutely cannot get enough of your rabbits! I love watching them, learning about raising them, while all along knowing how delicious they are. My first foray into hunting as a child was for jack rabbits. I fell in love with the meat and the thrill of the hunt. Those jacks are sooo fast and not an easy prey. Also it was usually in snow while hunting and they’re so good at blending into the environment. Thanks for continuing to share! Love & prayers to y’all! 😊💕🙏🏼

We have a REW male and he is the sweetest natured bunny. We call him Rew-Bear and he's a retired breeder. His previous owner used him as a breeder but wanted to downsize so he gave him to us. When we got him, his nose was all scraped up and red from where he would rub his nose on the wire trying to sniff the does!! So we originally called him Rudy (as in the red nosed reindeer), but he's snuggly like a teddy bear, thus Rew-Bear.💙💙

Yes the change will be big for them, but currently they are very excited about the adventure of it all. No real way of telling until we are living it, but I expect they will do well since they are still very young, and aren't real spoiled. The oldest will be the challenge if anyone is, but that's a 13 year old girl for ya.

Sad but we had to do the same when we moved from 200 acres to 40. Can't wait to see your progress on the new place.

The smallest girl has the sweetest expressions, Great family all the kids. I'm just guessing the area you are moving to, I've done work at a place on Farm to Market Rd and on this property there were a few large walnut trees full of walnuts, and the ground was littered with them. It's a little micro climate up there. I would love some nut trees like that, but Sagle doesn't have the climate suited for those types of trees.

Do you just take fresh from under the cages and mix with the soil in you growing beds? How much do you put in one of the beds, like a 5 gallen bucket full, or a couple gallon for a 4x10' bed? I remember my grandma using old cow compost in her garden and the dirt was so mellow, after years of putting the old cattle manure the dirt was like large sand and her garden flourished every year. She put coffee cans around each tomato plant and we gave them one tin cup of water every evening. She said if she watered in the morning the heat would evaporate the moisture and in the evening the plants and roots had time to absorb the moisture. Found your channel this week, love it. God Bless.

Are you going to be making rabbit updates any time soon? Hopefully everyone is doing well. I really appreciate all of the teaching moments and information you share about raising meat rabbits. In August i finally got my own trio of meat rabbits! the first litter of kits is just under five weeks old. Still undecided about selling a kit to pay for the cost of raising the litter (there are only five kits) :)

It is! Yes we plan to try a greenhouse, bees, sheep, and an orchard.

Do you have any step by step videos on how to build the hutches/barn? I'm in Canada where winters can get as cold as -40 (usually -30) and summers can get +30-- +40 with the humidex. Also, whats the best direction to face the cage area, I heard East but also South...? The two level mini barn will have an inclosed area and an outdoor /caged area.

Goodness knows my lemon cukes loved all the rabbit poop and shavings. I almost killed them by trying to water them. It did kill a few and all my luffa 🙁 but I stopped and the lemon cukes that lived never ever needed watering and they flourished. It was when we had our bunnies inside and it was only some of their shavings and poop. The rest went into a much bigger space. It was enough to feed the plants the whole season too. We got so many. Bunny poop is the best. And probably worm compost too, but bunnies is what I have lol.

Man, I absolutely adore that Broken Lilac buck of yours!!! I feel bad for Kirra (or is it Kira?) But she seemed to Handel it well! It helps when you get some money outta it! It helps to know that she will be loved in her new home as well! I raise 4-H meat goats, and it is always so difficult to let them go, not only that you are selling them, but to know that they are going to the slaughterhouse hurts so much! I wish you guys the best of luck!

Aww man, yeah selling them off to slaughter is difficult as a 4her, I totally understand that. She was fine about 30 seconds later, lol
