Let Me Introduce Myself

in introduceyourself •  7 years ago 

After months of my husband @greenacrehome telling me about steemit, he finally set me up with an account.

My husband and I are homesteaders. We’ve had meat and egg producing chickens, and currently have a small herd of wool sheep! We have 4 Romney cross wethers. They’ve been bred for their fiber traits and are great lawn mowers. I look forward to spring when they get sheared and I can start processing the wool!

I run a soap business out of my home and mainly sell wholesale to a few businesses and retail to friends, but also sell them through our website at: http://www.greenacrehomestead.com
My most important job is that of being a mom. I am a stay at home, homeschooling mom. I have a 5 1/2 year old and a 2 1/2 year old, both boys. They give me a run for my money daily!

I'm an avid reader and enjoy crafting. I look forward to processing my sheep wool and spinning it for the first time this year. I crochet and sew simple projects. I love gardening and learning to preserve what we’ve grown. I am a Christian, and work to instill Christian values in my children’s lives and those around me every day.

I hope to learn much on steemit and maybe teach others something useful in return!

Welcome to Steemit! Nice to “meet” another Christian momma in the community :)

Thanks! And definitely nice to meet other Christians!

I'd have to say your husband's a smart man for getting you on here. ;-)

Welcome welcome!

He is pretty smart :)

Welcome to Steemit! I'm a homeschooling homesteading mama of 4 and we ledt our homestead in California nearly 3 years ago to start up in N. Idaho. We have Icelandic hens, but I miss our goats, ducks & quail, but we're considering a Dexter for milk this year, so we'll see where life leads us!

My husband convinced me to join a few weeks ago and I'm really enjoying it! It's been wonderful to have so many helpful folks here and on Discord. Looking forward to seeing your posts!

We go through the milk enough to get one! Good luck and thanks!

Let me be the first of our small but growing community to welcome you on Steemit! Great username by the way, I read it and thought to my self, hmm soap and sheep, what could possibly go wrong?! :)

Haha. Thanks! Sheep could sure use some soap! And after working with sheep, and little boys, soap is very much needed!

Yay! Welcome! There is a great homesteading community here, which I'm sure your husband has been telling you. So glad he talked you into it!

Thanks. Looking forward to learning a lot!

welcome! I'm glad you joined! super excited to hear more about your lifestyle and lawn mowers ;) <3

I hope to put many posts on our sheep! Thanks

Welcome to Steemit @soapnsheepmom!
I wish you much success and hope you find Steemit to be as rewarding and informative as I have. @bycoleman

I hope to find both as well. Thanks

You will -- The Lord gives abundantly to all those who call on his name.
Keep up the Christian values and the homesteading -- We home schooled our kids so we would not have to unwind what the system was winding up in them each day.

God bless,

Woohooo welcome to you!! Love your sheep and your soap looks divine! Looking forward to seeing more of your homesteading <3

Welcome to Steemit :-) do those sheep shed their wool naturally or have they been bred to not shed?

I guess it just stays together. Hair sheep may shed. Wool sheep have to be sheared once or twice a year

Welcome! It is great to see a fellow soap maker on here too. I would love to see a soaping community grow on here too. :) do you make goats milk soaps or animal based soaps? I predominantly stick with vegan soaps myself but am not opposed to animal based ingredients in my soaps! again welcome - giving you a follow and can't wait to watch your journey here on Steemit :)

I just started using goats milk. I mainly use vegan oils, but also have tallow I use occasionally. I enjoy soapmaking and just may have to share some of my journey!
