Hello Steemers!
I'm Adrienne of FarmsteadSmith!
My husband is 
Currently, it's the two of us, one dog, two rabbits, 21 chickens, three goslings and four (hopefully soon to be eight) ducklings. In my terminology, the goslings and ducklings will be henceforth replaced with "Gucklings". We are planning to still add quail and maybe turkey this year, bees are also on the soon to be added list!
The purpose of this account will be to share with you our adventures with farmsteading. I promise we will even share with you mistakes we've made! Let me tell you, there's quite the list already.
Anyway, my husband and I have had a very adventurous first 5 years of our marriage. He was in the military and because of the military we have lived in South Korea and Germany. We just returned from Germany back to Oregon in 2015 and are now a veteran family.
Now that we're back in the states and own a nice piece of land our goal is to try and head toward the self sustaining model of life and do what we can to provide for ourselves. In the future we hope to add ruminants to the property for sure, but that might be a little ways off while we build up the infrastructure of the property.
So hold onto your hats cause this is bound to be a bumpy ride!
I am open to any questions you may have! Please feel free to ask and I'll answer as best I can.
