The Scratch

Scratch is a term coined by people literally scratching a line in the dirt as the STARTING point in races. It later spread to other types of sporting events like boxing and golf. After that, it came to mean "nothing" in phrases like "He came to America and started from scratch." Once premade mixes came along, people started using the term when referring to preparing food from basic pantry items instead of premade mixes... You make it from scratch. 

SOOOOOOO.....  With God's blessing 2 people came together (the scratch!), lived in an apartment in the city then moved to a small town, started a family, and started praying for that right piece of land... and now we have this raw piece of land that we are going to make into a farm.... Made From Scratch Farm to be exact! 

For now, the farm is in one location and the rest of us... a great dane, 9 chickens, 4 wild boys, a husband and wife... we are in town with a little yard.  We are gathering eggs, playing baseball, homeschooling, working, living life, cooking from scratch, and dreaming of our future on the farm!  We want to raise more chickens (who just so happen to scratch the earth haha!), raise cows, turkey, and produce.  Our plan is to raise sustainable, healthy food for our family.  It's coming!  Coming soon! 

In the meantime, I'll keep you updated on that process here!
