Yes, indeed, you heard that right. It’s Tomato Pie, and it is delicious. I have an abundance of tomatoes, and now I’ve found another use for them.

A Dance With Nature on the Farm
What a wonderful week we’ve had at the farm. We invite school kids for field trips to the farm to experience nature. Yep, you heard me right “experience nature.” It never ceases to amaze me the excitement I witness through kids’ eyes that I hope as adults you have not lost your luster for. And…
When Winter Gives You an Unexpected Gift
Have you ever taken a trail ride in the snow? Kelly & Megan didn’t let the snow stop them. I know that must sound crazy, winter doesn’t give us gifts, it gives us misery, you might say. But is that totally true? In Ohio this week we are super excited about the thermometer that reads…
Let Me Be The First To Share My Success

Who ever heard of a Green Onion Bouquet?

Where Have You Been?
Oh my goodness. I kept procrastinating until I finally made myself get back on the computer to post to my blog what has been going on here at Cherry Ridge. Where does the time go? How can it go by so quickly? This past month has been a whirl-wind of activity. Springtime, here on…
Pack up the thermal underwear
Can you believe it? Looky, looky. If hadn’t seen it with my own eyes I would have second guessed my husband’s comment, “It feels pretty good outside.” The temperature is rising and I was so surprised when I went outside to feed the chickens and rabbits and saw, fifty-five degrees. I then fed the…
