Hello world!

Our first post, only 2 years after we moved in!

Feb 2021: Matt moved into the Taos ‘Double A’ ranch. (now we call it’s called Sunsupp Regenerative Redoubt). Kersti and Mateo began transitioning from ABQ to Taos

Aug ’21: We bought 5 dorper ewes and a dorper ram from some experts near Mora NM.

Don and Val and Story moved in out by the greenhouse with a menagerie of animals.

Dec 2021: Crazy local dogs killed my ram and 18 of Don and Vals animals.

Spring 2021: first acequia irrigation and many hours spent on weeds. Matt got the greenhouse running (took months!) and rented it to some local farmers. Surprise, our ewes started dropping lambs, the ram did not die without issue!

Summer 2021: many hours dealing with weeds.

Fall 2021 We harvested 640 bales of hay!

Oct 2021: we started burning lots of wood in the fireplace!

Matt started trying to figure out how to grow animals on the farm without feeding the crazy local dogs. That meant building a serious electric fence.

Spring 2022: First ‘chop and flip’ aquaponic system in the greenhouse!

Fall 2022: We harvested another 600 bales of hay. Built 600′ of electric fence

Thanksgiving 2022: We bought 4 pregnant dorper/katahdin ewes and hosted 3 more ewes and hosted a big dorper ram.

Dec 2022: 7 lambs born!
