Nature at Home

Since purchasing our home in Shelbyville, IN I’ve discovered a renewed peace and joy in nature. Simply sitting on my porch can bring a sense of contentment that I’ve rarely if ever, known before. We have a flock of approximately 100 chickens that lay the most gorgeous and yummy eggs and several honey bee hives that produce hundreds of pounds of fresh honey every year. The property boasts at least four wildflower and pollinator plots that welcome a variety of butterflies, finches, and hummingbirds, to name a few. Gardening and flower beds also consume a fair amount of my time from April to October. God has taught me so much through getting my hands dirty and mixing in a little bit of manure; He has a great sense of humor.
