The silkies were moved from the brooder to the chicken tractor with the Cornish rocks. That made more space in the brooder for the remaining pullet chicks and gave them more space as well. The silkies will learn how to get water from the nipples from watching and imitating the Cornish rocks. The rocks are meat birds and don’t move around very much but so they don’t mind the 8 new roommates. The tractor is moved daily to give them fresh pasture. #chickens #silkiechicken #silkiesofinstagram #cornishrock #chickentractor #nipplewaterer #pastureraised #pasturedpoultry #smallfarm #familyfarm #veteranfarmer #veteranfarmercoalition #homestead #homesteading #homesteadinglife #womenfarmers #rural #hühnermobil #hühnchen #poultry #poultryofinstagram #poulet #pollos #granja #ferme #landwirtschaft #hof (at Saint Helena Island) https://www.instagram.com/p/B-SKJ62l49x/?igshid=5qi1py8mx76f

A few months ago we were praying hard for our hens to lay an egg or two now and again. We had a drought, so to speak and our customers were wondering what happened. Well for the past few weeks the ladies have really been on a laying frenzy! We have been blessed with many each day so contact us about getting your eggs again. We are ready to get you back on schedule. #eggs #eggsofinstagram #layinghens #eggsforbreakfast #eggsfordays #sclowcountry #sthelenaisland #beaufortsc #beaufortcountysc #gullahgeechee #veteranowned #veteranfarmer #veteranfarmercoalition #eatlocal #eat #freerangeeggs (at Saint Helena Island) https://www.instagram.com/p/B9k1T8ylPNt/?igshid=beutdrws2fqn

Being a part of the @penncenter Heritage Days Celebration on Youth Day is always a pleasure. As a farm we have the opportunity to share with school groups about our work, showcase some of our animals, teach about farming practices, and encourage healthier food selections. We talked about embryology, chick development in the egg, hatching day, showed 3varieties of chickens and ducks, brought our new guineas. Our presentation also included information about Dr. George Washington Carver, his life, inventions and work as an Farm Extension agent at @tuskegeeuniversity. We shared some of his recipes found in the African American Cookbook, and had peanut plants on display. The late Isabella Glen a form PennSchool student wrote in her memoir about Dr. Carvers visit to Penn while she was a student. Finally, we gave visitors an opportunity to grind corn using our corn mill. It was a fantastic day to share #Gullah culture and traditions, sustainable farming and the great work of the Penn School. The display adjacent to us were our friends from South Carolina State University 1890 Research and Extension Service where we both attended and received ur BS in Political Science and History. #SCSU #farm #farmlife #farming #farmpractices #farmtoschool #penncenter #penncenter1862 #sthelenaisland #sthelenaislandsc #penncenterheritageday #celebrations #farmdays #veteranfarmer #veteranfarmercoalition #farmlife #mobilefarm #teachingfarm #beaufortcountysc #beaufortcountyschools #beaufortcountyschooldistrict #cornmill #grindingcorn #grits #cornmeal #localfood #extensionservice #landgrantuniversities #hbcu #1890s (at Morning Glory Homestead) https://www.instagram.com/p/B4uswsKAa7D/?igshid=wtei0otymtne

The work that goes into extracting, filtering, and storing honey is sticky work. The completed jar doesn’t tell the story of the labor that precedes it. From purchasing the bees, hive boxes, beekeeping suit and equipment, to checking the condition and health of the colony. Attending classes, workshops, meetings. The extraction, jars and lids, sanitation, labeling and marketing! Whew, I’m tired already! Tony was wearing his agribility apron! #bees #beekeeperslife #beekeeping101 #beekeeping #sustainablebeekeeping #beehive #beecolony #apiary #apiarylife #apiarist #farmfamily #veteranfarmer #veteranbeekeepers #retiredmilitary #retiredarmy #retiredarmyofficer #agribility #veteranfarmercoalition #farmerveterancoalition #homesteadfarm (at Saint Helena Island) https://www.instagram.com/p/Bywhjxmga__/?igshid=w747bzik77sg
