Swampy acres farm
Welcome to Swampy Acres Farm!
We're a small farm in Eastern Connecticut, growing vegetables and raising livestock as close to organic as possible. Starting from bare land, we've steadily built our farm from the ground up, focusing on sustainability and working within our means.
To keep costs low, we buy broken or run-down equipment and bring it back to life. We also custom-build machinery to tackle unique farm tasks. But it's not all work—we love fabricating and creating fun projects, too!
On this channel, you'll find:
✅ Farm life updates and challenges
✅ Equipment repairs and restorations
✅ Custom-built farm tools and machinery
✅ DIY fabrication projects and fun builds
Join us as we navigate farming, fabrication, and the journey of making the most out of what we have. Subscribe and follow along!
