Hi! I’m Ashleigh and this is my homesteading blog. I write it, edit it, take the pictures, feed the animals, train the animals, work in the garden etc.

 

I blog because we bought a run-down, old .82 acre orchard in Layton, Utah in early 2023…I had no idea when we purchased it that I was venturing into an entirely new and fascinating world of homesteading.

​

Come explore this world with me as I examine gardening in a desert, raising livestock on limited space, harvesting wool for the first time and all sorts of other fun stuff. I hope you find a little entertainment and glean a few facts.

​

We garden, wood work, produce eggs and fiber. We have two amazing dogs who are eager to start this adventure with us, too! Our animals are raised as naturally as possible, the barnyard is home to sheep, and chickens, currently. Our quest is to live and care for this land the best that we can. It's always a learning experience and we enjoy sharing what we love and motivating and encouraging other homesteaders.
