Welcome to the Farm

Hi! Nice to meet you! I’m Chelsea. Thanks so much for stopping by my little slice of the world.

I am a Midwest girl gone Montanan; living in a town of 400 people, 24 miles north of Yellowstone National Park.

I created this space to share our journey of building a farm on our 20 acre property. I hope to inspire you to appreciate the little things in life and embrace your surroundings-wherever you may be.

What is your zone of genius? 🧠 (And don’t even try to say you don’t have one, because everyone does!) Some people are lucky and their zone of genius falls into something they actually enjoy, and others have a zone of genius outside of things they would call “fun”. 🌈 for example, growing up I was always top of my Math class; until I decided I didn’t think being top of my Math class was cool 😎 and I stopped trying at all. 🤦🏼‍♀️Ere go, my zone of genius at that point in my life wasn’t something I necessarily loved; but man was I good at it. 🌟if you’ve never thought about it, I’d encourage you to do so. I’m not 100% sure whet my zone of genius in adulthood is; but I do know that I’m a “QuickStart”, an idea generator; someone who has 1000 exciting and plausible ideas for business, personal, and otherwise; but I know that I need people who are more “fact finders” like my fiancé, to help balance me out. ❤️long story short, when you’re running a small business or approaching tasks in your life, knowing or discovering your zone of genius can help you determine what types of people you should surround yourself with to be most successful! Hope you buddies had a relaxing weekend and start the new work week off with all the #positivevibes

Happy #FarmPupFriday buddies!! It’s hard to believe that there are just a few more Fridays before we get to bring home another amazing #LGD puppy! 🐾Rhona is going to be so happy to have a partner in crime. ❤️however, I’m not sure she’s going to be quite so enthusiastic to share the #FarmPupFriday spotlight! 😂👏🏻 • • • @prancingponyfarm , @thenaturaleggco and @osodelblanco would you like to share your adorable pups today? 🐶anyone else who has an adorable pup, I would love for you to share, tag me, and use the #FarmPupFriday hashtag! Have a great weekend buddies!

Today I’ve been reflecting a bit on how far we have come in the last year. ⭐️this time last year we had two goats and 5 chickens. 🐓we were 100% doing this farming thing for fun and really only beginning to discuss where we thought we would like the farm and just the overall usage of our property to go. 🌱if you asked me then where I thought we would be in a year, I would’ve never fathomed we’d be up to 7 goats and 85 chickens (with more on the way!)🐾not only that, but we are adding another livestock guardian and somehow managed to get our vacation cabin done in time for the summer season. 🤷🏼‍♀️ I’m not sharing all this to boast, I’m sharing it to show that in the day to day it can be so easy to feel like you’re going nowhere or things aren’t getting done as quickly as you’d like. 🌷always remember to give yourself some grace and realize how far you have come. ❤️ • • Sharing this photo for #womensworkwednesday with @love_and_lavender 💐 📸 by: @stephanniecamossephoto

This guy is Blue. Named after the velociraptor in Jurassic Park, obvi 💁🏼‍♀️we hatched him out of an egg from @blackdogfarmmt and he is one of my favorite chickens on the farm. ⭐️With the expansion of our flock to around 100 chickens, it has become crucial for us to have nice roosters who also know how to protect their hens. 🌷This guy is only 14 weeks old and he is already a pro at rounding up the girls when a hawk or eagle is circling! 🌲It’s SO fascinating to watch! My gal pal and #bossbabe @stephanniecamossephoto took this photo of Blue last weekend! • • • Sharing for #roosdaytuesday with Michelle @newburyfarms 🌿 @theyounghomestead , @blackdogfarmmt would you like to share today too?

Happy #MeetMyGoatMonday buddies!! This is Dixie 🌷she is the first goat we have had in milk on our farm! ❤️She has been such a champ teaching John and I how to become goat milkers! 😂she is a total pro and stood there for a solid 45 minutes the first day while I tried to get the hang of it! 🥛to everyone who said milking a goat would be easier than a 🐄I’m not sure I agree with you 😂👏🏻if you are in the show arena, Dixie also just earned her milk star ⭐️ and will likely qualify for superior genetics later this summer! 😱she’s just an all around amazing gal. 🌈I can’t wait to start working on some chèvre this week 🧀 • • Sharing with @the_red_barn_farm and @theyounghomestead ❤️. @wildoakfarms @brackenoaksfarm @wildrootcove would you ladies like to share today?? 🐐
