Degland Jeff and I started this venture in 2010 by buying a 40 acre farm in Northern Missouri. We Planted several varieties of apples for a U-Pick and Bittersweet for the dried flower market. 
We've struggled thru two years of drought and then a fire that took our trees and all of our bittersweet.  We rebuilt the trellis's and replanted two years ago.    
​Our handcrafted Hot Pepper Jams are made with the fruit and peppers we grow here on the farm. Jeff plants and I harvest   (he hates snakes) Jeff is responsible for the flavor and I provide the love that goes into each and every jar.
​After many months of research into the different sheep breeds we purchased our first two Olde English Babydoll lambs.  An offwhite ewe, Prudence and a black wether Webster. They brought such joy and calmness into my life with their smiling faces and trusting soles.  We have grown our flock and enjoy introducing them to those who have never seen this gentle breed.  Our grandson has been showing our sheep in 4H at our local County Fairs and most everyone falls in love. Deaglan won Champion over all other breeds of rams at the Northwest Missouri state Fair!
​We love our life here on the Farm!
