Turning 20 acres in southern Oklahoma from neglected pasture and woods into a lush and thriving homestead.
Current project is turning an acre of thick bottom woodlands into a pond. Clearing, logging, splitting, stacking...
Livestock on schedule to start living here in late June. Chickens and goats will be the first.
Our home will be on this land as soon as we can.
Meat and eggs from chickens, meat and milk from goats.
Followed eventually by hogs for meat and cattle for meat and milk.
Very small amount of livestock.
Goal is to only provide for family with perhaps a little extra. Farming for profit is the last thing on my mind.
You can watch my progress on FB via the FB page I created.
Green Okie Acres
My wife and two daughters are tolerant of my efforts but I secretly think they are waiting for dad to give up on the homestead and go back to being a consumer.
Love, love, love this site. So many ideas!!!
My land is near Sulphur. Once I am up and running, it will be a public welcome, come at anytime homestead.
