The Bog Blog: The Goats Cometh!

Three of them!!!

Pics and more details tomorrow. :)

The Farmstand

Our Farmstand is open every weekend 10ish-7ish. Our offerings typically include chicken, duck & quail eggs, cut flowers and produce in season. We also offer homemade soaps, honey and wax, as our time, and the demands of the critters and garden permit. We post updates on our weekly offerings most frequently on our Facebook page.

Ours is a self-serve stand, but questions and special requests are always welcome. Email us any time at boggyhollowfarm@gmail.com.

Many Thanks!
B, M, O & S
and the hardworking critters of Boggy Hollow :)

What we're about

Well hey there! We're Billy & Michelle, the owners and chief lackeys of Boggy Hollow Farm.

Our farm is... in a bit of a fallow phase at the moment. We have a beautiful old house on 3 1/2 acres just outside the city limits of Olympia, Washington, where (so far) we have 1 gorgeous goat, 30,000 honeybees, 3 fluffy pups and 2 amazing daughters that complete our farm family.

In the mean time, we are adjusting to life in the "country", learning the finer points of animal husbandry, splitting firewood, working on a massive vegetable garden and chasing off "varmints" as need be. Please feel free to follow along, and share your farming and gardening advice with us, and hopefully learn a thing or two from our efforts to build an old-fashioned family farm from the ground up.

Cheers!

B & M
