Bittersweet

It doesn't seem so long ago that he was just a baby, but today, our steer Noah is going to market. He is the first beef we have raised for this purpose.



While we are really looking forward to enjoying the fruits of our labor, I can't help but feel a little tug on my heart. He had a great life.....and we praise God for the ability to raise our own food and live this rural dream.

  1. We recently processed our first steer as well. We keep reminding ourselves that he had a full and happy life in our pasture.
