From opera houses to hen houses — welcome to Chickadee Farm! After years of performing on stages around the world, I traded gowns and arias for a homestead life in southeast Idaho. Here you'll find gardening, canning, DIY projects, and all the everyday lessons (and laughs) that come with building a homestead from scratch.
Along for the ride are David, (my husband and taste tester), plus our lively cast of farm characters:
🐾 Madeline & Boudreaux, our two Frenchies
🐱 Charlie, Chester & Mugsy—our trio of geriatric house cats, plus Petunia the garden kitty
🐔 "The Girls"—seven sassy chickens
🐴 Zara, our spirited Friesian filly
🫏 Opie, her wise 31-year-old mule companion
Every week, discover:
🌻 Garden-to-kitchen adventures & seasonal harvests
🥫 Canning, preserving, pantry inspiration
🐓 Homestead projects, animal antics, and real-life confessions
It's a little chaotic, often funny, always rewarding, and I wouldn't have it any other way. Subscribe and join the Chickadee Farm family!
