Thank you for joining us on this crazy journey! Our family- Kate and Marius plus our four kids, have always enjoyed living a homemade life whenever possible. Moving 1000miles north in 2017 to Northern BC, Canada upped our game even more. We live on a 34 acre homestead and get a kick out of things like raising our own meat, dairy and vegetables. Theres plenty of failures, you’ll be sure to see those here too. We’re a homeschooling family who believes life is the best teacher but we do hit the books in winter. You can find lots of real life confessions, recipes, how to’s and “The Schat Show”. Family health, natural health, cooking, natural food, whole food, recipes, parenting, kids, children, babies, faith, family life, work life balance, survival, wildcraft, keeping a family milk cow, home dairy, chickens, eggs, meat chickens, raising meat, raising pigs, fencing, dogs, cats, garden, gardening, winter gardening, short season gardening, northern living, life in winter, outdoor adventure, nature study, plant identification, rural living, food preparation, heating with wood, firewood, child training, homeschooling are all topics you will find here

I’m soooo close to getting my cow. Every time we get closer, my husband sends me a 🐄🐄🐄🐄 (cow emoji). These videos, along with the book you recommended, have me more confident on handling her when we make our final payment. ❤️

Do you feel cows need a friend? (Calf, other cow, goat, etc.)

[tvicory]

So when you are able to feel the calf when bumping, about how far out is calving?

...as I’m fighting the internal battle with myself to NOT get a milk cow until next spring... this isn’t helping 😆 I have serious cow fever!

I am in Canada too (Québec) and I live in a suburb and while I plan to get a milk cow (or 2😆) in the future, it is not a possibility right now. However I would love to get raw milk and it is so complicated in Canada! Anybody from Quebec willing to sell some? 😭

After having a calf how long will the jersey milk cow produce milk?

Our jerseys milk 10 gallons each.. machine 100%
If there is something wrong with the cow, her eating habits change

I always freeze my mozzarella before grating.
