Hello!
I hope everyone is staying healthy during this crazy time we are going through. I thought I would drop a line and say hello.
Growing up, I lived on a large cattle farm in Eastern TN. We raised mainly angus cows, and we always had huge gardens, several acres of tobacco and tomatoes.
we used to make our own lard, cracklins, peach, and apple butter. Slowly we moved away from that life style, and the farm became a business and that was it. Eventually I grew up, went to college, joined the Army, and now I am ready to settle down.
My wife and just bought 4 nice acres of land here in East TN and our goal is be as self sufficient as possible. I know the old ways, but my wife and two modern children have been in a state of culture shock.
