Welcome to the blog of A and B Farm. We're excited to share with you our trials and tribulations (and hopefully successes) in pursuing our dream. Our dream of starting a farm. My husband, Bob, and I bought an old farmhouse two years ago in the southern Adirondacks. The farm was not a working farm when we bought it. The house needed alot of work and the barns (while still standing) were dilapidated and dysfunctional, to say the least. While working full time, we plan to restore the buildings and land to its previous glory of a working Adirondack farm.
In the past two years, we've been busy tackling projects. We painted the house, and replaced the old leaking roof. Back in the day, the pole that carried the power out to the barns fell down, so there was no power in the barns when we moved in. Since then, Bob has trenched power out and installed a breaker box in the first barn closest to the house. We installed a garden, and fenced it in to keep the deer and our gubby dogs out.
We did almost all of this before and in preparation of our backyard wedding last September. Because we didn't have a house warming party when we moved in, we were delighted to be able to share our farmstead with family and friends on our wedding day. A peek of our wedding pics
We hope to continue our project list and get some barnyard critters soon, to be profiled in future posts. Stay tuned!
