Energetic, Competent, Hardy Farm Family of 3 from Missouri interested in a career position farming, ranching, caretaking. We are not afraid of work nor are we strangers to it.. :) ..After all, Southern Missouri is POOR.
 We are Andy 34, Kendra 29, & Khloe 2. We have been striving for a more organic, self sufficient lifestyle... willing & able to learn more and do what it takes to be successful at whatever our next adventure is. Starting all over again from nothing after losing almost everything to a car accident; Thankful to have our family and have Faith that this will taking us to where we belong...
Andy was born & raised on Dairy farm. Very knowledgeable & practical about animal nutrition, care, well-being. Fencing, haying, machinary, & construction experience as well.. roofing, masonry, steel buildings, framing, ect... There is not quit in this man's work ethic. Time management and efficiency are are his skills; up each more with little time to do dairy chores and off to school/ later working. He is also an outdoorsman; proficiently hunting and tracking game.   Where we see a need we fill it. By any means necessary we accomplish each task put before us.
I, Kendra, was raised on a beef farm & have knowledge of raising various livestock and poultry. I raised everything that I could on a bottle; lambs, goats, wild rabbits, puppies, kittens, calves, foals.... And have also raised fowl with an incubator & naturally quite successfully.
We both also have gardening skills, & cooking skills... And are able to follow instructions on how to do the things we do not know, yet.

Khloe is a lot of help for almost 3 years old. Farm kid through and through, she has taken every step with us. We have never used a babysitter, always done Attachment Parenting keeping her with us. Homeschooling and educating Khloe on practical, real life are important to us.
We take all responsibilities seriously.
Our family is continually study & grow more educated on self sufficient living; progressive, forward thinkers that know it takes putting the hand to the plow to get anything accomplished and really learn. All three of us appreciate hard work, accomplishing goals. Our family works proficiently together; enjoying our close relationships.

We are open to relocation anywhere :)

Hope to hear from you all soon . Thank you for your time and consideration,
Andy & Kendra

Thayer, Missouri Family of 3 seeking new opportunities farming, ranching, caretaking, homesteading, etc.
We are a dependable, hard-working, & most importantly passionate about the farming lifestyle.
Our family motto is "By any means necessary", meaning we will accomplish any task put in front of us. Meeting each challenge with practical problem solving- down to earth.
Andy, 34, was Family (cattle) Dairy born & raised. Responsible, dependable, hard-working NO matter what the weather is doing the cattle have to be milked & calves fed. Extreme responsibility to caring for land & livestock properly.  Energetic and enthusiastic about life, planning, projects, completing goals, & enjoying each moment in the moment.
Natural ability to hunt and track game.
Construction knowledge concrete, framing, masonry, roofing, metal buildings... from the ground up.

Kendra, 29, grew up on beef farm. Learning how to raise almost everything kind of livestock; lambs, goats, rabbits, calves, foals, chickens, turkey, geese, ducks, guineas, puppies, kittens. Shaping me into a dedicated shepard to livestock. Getting up every couple hours to feed is a joy to me.
Khloe, almost 3, farm kid through and through :) she has always been by Dad & Mom's side rain or shine as well. Would consider her a hard-working toddler for sure.
As a family we are striving to achieve a healthier, happier lifestyle; Want to shake the consumerism...the debt slavery.
We have the strong backs, commitment, skills, and willingness to be assets to any team.

Can call the Roark household at 417-280-2249

Can you be a bit more specific about what you are looking for? Also ... maybe tell us something about yourself and family? What does your motto refer to?

No response to my email or PM. I find that it seems many people, who post, are finding this site for the first time and do a big production of a post and don't even have the courtesy to respond with any reply whatsoever. I liken them to fishermen casting out to see if they can get a bite.

It could be, that since they didn't get a response in over three months that quit watching this thread?  

It's always nice if folks come back and give an update though.

Yes I had stopped watching the thread. My apologies for not responding to the email or the message on this thread. We certainly did not intend on offending anyone; we had decided since there were not any responses through the Winter that we would resume our search in the Spring (now)
