Welcome to Cheese Acres! We are a family run little farm. We raise chickens for eggs and grow vegetables and berries. We like to can and freeze foods, make jam and jelly,relish, etc. and are always looking for a good recipe to use what we grow.
We would like to share what we have learned with others in the farming/ country communities as well as continue to learn from them.
Cary and I have grown vegetables for many years. Each year our little garden seems to get bigger and bigger. We have been raising chickens for over 3 years. We enjoy showing our grandson and nieces and nephews the plants and all that is involved in raising chickens. It is especially fun to see them gather eggs. We are trying to become as self-sufficient as possible. We enjoy everything about the peaceful country life, including the crowing roosters!
Here is a link to a homesteaders directory for readers as well as bloggers.
Your coop is gorgeous! I have coop envy! Lovely.

Looking forward to follow you guys. My husband and I have it as our goal to be at least 95% self sufficient within 5 years. We still have a long way to go though 🙂

We have a long way to go too. I hope to be retired from my full time job by then and able to focus on the farm more so that will help us! Good luck!
Same to you 🙂
Hello! Thank you for stopping by COUNTRY LINKed! Always nice to meet new bloggers. Look forward to seeing more of you and your blog. Happy New Year!
Thanks! Happy New year to you too!
Hi! Thanks for stopping by my little corner and for the follow!!! Love the beautiful co-op! 🙂
Thanks Bree! 🙂
I’m glad you found my blog, I love yours and that we both raise chickens, dogs, berries and vegetables, but I am a tad older, having raised my kids and not have 5 grands. I love your coop. Wish I had gone a bit bigger when I got mine, it will handle 14-15 in good weather, but is too small in a winter like this one where we have had single digit temps and snow.
My kids are raised and we are finally enjoying the empty nest, except for the dogs, and cats lol! That sweet little boy you see from time to time is our only grandson. I’m so glad you stopped by, I just love your place in those beautiful mountains. I know you are sick of the winter though.
Hi Cary and Veletta, Thanks for following my blog. Looking forward to exchanging ideas and just shootin the breeze over the back fence.

You are very welcome! I can’t seem to get things to show up in my reader like I want but I am trying to keep up. 🙂 I will be back more often when I figure it out!
