Every week I overcommit myself in every aspect of my life. Nothing has made this fact more obvious to me than the opening of our brick & morter pop-up shop.

And I know I'm not alone in this. In the entreprenuer, homestead, and farming spaces it's totally normal to be multitalented and multipassionate. But how multitalented and multipassionate are you really? Is the effort really worth the end result? Do you really find joy in everything you're doing yourself? Or could it bring you more joy on all levels to outsource a little more?

In this episode, learn how I make that determination for myself, and the process I follow to decide whether to outsource or do it myself.

This week we're replaying the 2nd episode of the Living Homegrown Podcast Bev was a guest on. This episode was recorded in early 2018, shortly after Drink & Farm was launched, and she brought home her first goats. Listen to learn about some of the anxieties and fears a new goat keeper faces, learning about how to care for goats, and experiencing the first farm loss. It's been over 4 years since this episode was recorded, which is a great reminder that change takes time! So if you're feeling a little pokey in your progress at the moment, remember that everyone has to start somewhere!

To celebrate the spooky season, let's revisit the unpenned history of scarecrows. Not to be dramatic, but it's totally true, the historical records about scarecrows are pretty sparse. But it's full of interesting history, fun and not so fun facts, and we think you'll appreciate having this scarecrow knowledge up your sleeve for this weekend's Halloween parties.

If you don't go to parties (like us) you can totally bust this info out at your next work meeting!

Looking back at where you've been is an excellent way to recalibrate when the pace of life feels like it's getting ahead of you. It's no secret, I have a lot of things I'm working on at any given moment. A friend recently pointed out to me that it looked from the outside, I had lost my connection to why I had started all of this in the first place. Hearing that was uncomfortable, but necessary for me to really reflect on as I shift my focus. Have my priorities changed? Or do I need to reconnect to my why so I can reorganize my life in a way that allows room for more of me? Is 2022 Bev really so different from 2017 Bev?

Travel back in time with me to my first podcast interview ever with Theresa Loe of the Living Homegrown Podcast, and reflect with me on where I started, and how it relates to where I'm going.

How Shannon Managed Marek's in Her Flock:

**For My Flock ** Fresh clean water daily Ice treats on hot days - added treats of grubblies or scrambled eggs -spinach - vitamins and oregano Free ranging often

10 drops colloidal silver into their water twice monthly . Herbs! Added to their foods! I like herbin backyards **Tina's ❤️ (rest in peace sweet girl) Vitamins B12, vitamin e , selenium (Capsules sold over the counter .. I'd mix contents together into her yogurt and give 2xs daily) Poly-vi-sol {without iron) 1 dropperful daily Added oregano, herbs (herbin' backyards herbs worked great for me) into her food. HYDRATION is so important! I always watered down her food because she had hard time getting to her water bowl. Also-- I alternated between these two every 4 hours ... Colloidal silver 10ppm ten drops in her food. Hypericum 30x two tablets dissolved into a shot glass of distilled water. I'd give 6 drops into food. Alternate colloidal silver and hypericum (st johns wart) every 4 hours. Can also give on bread! **Again I am no doctor and went off of recommendations and some research and I really feel it's the reason she stayed with me so long. Good luck to anyone dealing with this disease. XO Shannon

Who's Twain you ask? He has THE COOLEST job in the world as the small flock poultry consultant for Nutrena Feeds and he has a wealth of knowledge when it comes to chickens and helping small flock owners be successful raising them. We discuss why chicken nutrition matters for your laying hens and meat birds, why straight run isn’t a worthwhile way to order chickens unless you really want roosters, how to find the perfect meat bird breed for the taste you are looking for, and what to expect when raising some of the different types of meat birds. Whether you eat meat, raise meat birds, or not, we think you'll find much of the knowledge shared by Twain super interesting!
