    Our channel follows the day to day activities happening around LaLa Farm. LaLa Farm is a small, family owned farm located just south of the Florida - Georgia line in Glen Saint Mary, FL (Northeast Florida). We focus on producing small scale marketable farm products, while moving toward food self-sufficiency for our own family. We breed Registered Kiko, Boer, and Nubian goats for market and meat. We raise our own poultry for meat and eggs. We grow seasonal fruits and vegetables and maintain a colony of bees for honey and pollination of our plants. The goal of our UA-cam channel is to educate and share with our customers, followers, and anyone else interested in the homesteading or small farm lifestyle - our approach to managing the little slice of paradise we call LaLa Farm. Our channel, just like the farm, is truly a family endeavor. On any given week, you may see videos from a number of family members depending on the video topic. Each of our family members has unique interests and skills that they bring to our farm. We would love to have you join us - the Robinson family - on our self-sufficiency and homesteading journey by subscribing to our channel.

    Great video! Raising your own food is always rewarding, even with all the work. It all taste better when it is planted, cared for, and harvested with your own hands. Enjoyed, take care!

    • @TheLaLaFarm
      @TheLaLaFarm  2 роки тому +1

      I initially built 3 large bins for compost, but then I have to move the waste a good distance and it was very time consuming and labor intensive. These days I am trying to work easier - not harder. 😀 So we have changed up our strategy a big as of last year. We just put the material it into piles, strategically placed around the farm and let mother nature do her thing to break it down over time. We go out a couple times per year and turn the piles. The piles are actually in the paddocks closest to where we pull the bio-material out of. Four example - our 2022 pile in in the middle of one of our doe pens is about 5 feet tall and 8 week wide already. The bed material we are using in the garden this year came out of this system, and we are really happy with it - those piles are each 1-2 years old. Starting next spring, we should have 2 fully composted piles per year to supplement our garden soil with. The bins would work fine, but all of our compostable livestock materials is spread out between 3 livestock buildings and it would a lot of labor to move it to one central spot. - Rick
