Puppies hit the one month mark.


Koko's puppies are one month old and doing well. They all have their eyes open and are walking well. We even get a little bark now and then. They are definitely getting more energetic and playful as well. We are starting to wean them with some puppy food and milk "mush" that they love.

In other "farm news" the baby chicks are growing fine as well as are the three new steers. With the almost daily rain it has been hard to keep up with grass cutting and bush hogging but this weekend is supposed to be sunny so maybe we can get caught up a little.

Welcome!

Welcome to our family blog. We have a small (55 acres) farm and are attempting to raise beef cattle, some hay, laying hens, honey bees, a dog and a small garden. We also have a small pond that has fish in it but they pretty much raise themselves.The Twenty-eight eleven is the name of our farm. It comes from Deutronomy 28:11 which reads: "The LORD will make you abound in prosperity, in the offspring of your body and in the offspring of your beast and in the produce of your ground in the land which the LORD swore to your fathers to give you." We count on God's blessings for our life as we know it so we thought it appropriate to go ahead and give Him all the glory for anything good that we produce, be it crops, cows, or children. This blog will be a fun project for us to document what is going on at our farm and hopefully share some natural ways of farming along the way (as we learn too).
