    Description

    We are a family with 5 children living on a farm. Every day starts early with feeding the animals. The animals are an important part of our family. The cows provide milk which we use to make our own dairy products. We also have sheep, goats, a pony, dogs, cats, and chickens for eggs. The children love to help out and learn a lot about farm life. In the summer, we enjoy fresh vegetables from our garden. We want to become as self-sufficient as possible and are planning to set up a large vegetable garden, but for now we have a small one. There is always something to do on our farm and you can also enjoy the outdoor life and the peace it brings. It's hard work, but it's all worth it.
