Shore FARM
Happiness is homemade!
We found our happiness on our small Indiana farm!
This farm has became my passion and my love. I get to be a renaissance farmer. A homesteader, business woman, mother and wife that is not from this generation, sometimes I feel like I belong in a time three decades or more ago. I love the way that we are raising our girls and the experiences that they get, I love the work in the fields and with the animals, I love the quality of the food we produce.
I love our farm. I love my family, and I love the life that we have created in our tiny paradise.
We are a small farm in Northern Indiana not far from the Michigan state line. We pride ourselves in working hard and creating healthy sustainable foods for families in our community.
We raise
Two amazing little Humans
chickens, bees, worms, fruit, nuts, vegetables
And of course,
AKC & IABCA corgis and tica & acfa ragdolls
I am proud to raise AKC & IABCA Corgi, and to be part of AKC's extensive training program.
I am proud to be trusted as an AKC judge and to host fit dog events and teach classes through AKC.
I am proud to have dogs that have earned international and national championships through the IABCA.
I am proud to have earned championships for my cats through the ACFA.
BUGS
Okay, before moving to the country I hated bugs. They creeped me out. Over my years farming I have discoved how vital these small creatures are. You cannot grow food without bugs. You cannot have nutrient rich soil without worms, grubs and microbes, 33% of the food we eat requires a pollinator to fertilize it, a bee or other flying insect. The foundation of our food is built on the tiny bugs that are often poisoned and irraditcated.
At Shore farms we proudly support the bugs! I am proud of my honey bees and we work hard to keep the colony happy and healthy. We raise Red Wiggler worms for vermicomposting, we compost our lawn and garden scraps as well as our chicken, quail and duck bedding. We strive to create nutrient rich soil, healthy abundant pollinators and armies of worms to foster healthy bountiful plants.
CHICKENS
We love our birds. We get to enjoy the freshest eggs and the most beautiful views. Our girls are pasture raised and get plenty of room to roam and search out yummy bugs and snacks.
Our girls are treated well and handled daily. Like all of the animals on the farm we appreicate them and truely enjoy there company and contribution.
There is nothing better than fresh eggs.
Honey Bee
Honey bees are amazing creatures. Our produce and fruit quaility and quantity has improved and our flowers are so much more aboundant. We love our hives!
