Favorite Learning Websites

We just found a new website that I would love to share with you.  A friend of mine, who teaches fifth grade told me she uses it in her classroom.  It is a fun way to learn many subjects!  Each time you get an answer correct you earn grains of rice for hungry people.  The kids enjoy seeing how many grains they can collect to help people.

Our Chickens

These are the extra heritage roosters that we sold.  We have one still for sale.  These are polish roosters, and so beautiful!

 Hens busy finding bugs and eating in the garden

We really enjoy having chickens!  Not only do they give us yummy eggs, but they are also fun to watch and are so pretty and diverse. 

We currently have about 25 laying hens and two roosters.  (One rooster is looking for a new home).  These chickens are well taken care of, by Jedrek, Slade, and Elena Czaja. The feed is from the local feed mill, R.F. Warner's Feed Mill. We also free range the chickens or give them extra vegetables, depending on the season of the garden. Our flock is now registered with the Maryland Department of Agriculture.  

The eggs are mostly brown, from the red chickens. We also have Zeb, a Barred rock chicken, that lays a green egg, and Velvet, a black chicken that lays a chocolate-brown egg. Our heritage birds which we raised from a day old are just starting to lay eggs.  So far one egg is green and one is light cream colored.  We eat those, until they are bigger.   Whatever color, inside, the eggs are delicious and fresh.

If you enjoy knowing where your food comes from, stop by to see the chickens, and buy your eggs.

First come, first serve. If you are a regular customer, we will be sure you get top priority.
