Shaye lives on five acres in North Central Washington and on that land, her family raises their dairy cow Sally Belle, a giant flock of laying hens, meat chickens, hogs, sheep, turkeys, and a variety of produce in their large, organic gardens.
She farms to provide her family with as much homegrown food as possible – learning the ways of the land and the ways of the past. She preserves food, stocks up the larder for winter, and is ever working towards growing more. The laundry hanging on the line may cause some to think she’s old fashioned. And maybe that’s true. But she’s okay with that. Shaye wouldn’t trade the hard working farm life for anything in the world.
