I’ve shared before, but I’m proud of what we’ve done and would like to share again

Please enjoy our urban homestead. We call it “The Birds and the Bees Farm”.

We live on about 1/3 of an acre in an urban city in the SF Bay Area. It’s been our dream to get off the grid, buy land, and live off our own homestead/farm. Life is currently keeping us here, but we’ve made it something we can love and enjoy.

We currently have 15 chickens, 4 beehives, 3 breeding rabbits who provide us roughly 1000 lbs of meat/year, a small vegetable garden, and a 2 cubic yard compost stall. We sell eggs and honey as well as bees and the whole operation is self sustaining.

Having our little farm has brought our family so much joy and has taught our kids a lot about sustainability, hard work, and the cycle of life. If we never end up on a larger plot of land, I’d be happy living out my life right here.
