Ruby Homestead
Welcome!! We are Frankie and Nickie, a young married couple with a dream of a simpler life, back to the land the way it should be. Nickie growing up always dreamed of being a little farm girl, getting up early to milk a cow, planting a garden, feeding chickens, hogs, processing her own food instead of going to a stuffy grocery store where you pay for more packaging than product. You know, all the farm works of the olden days. When she met Frankie, and their first date consisted of meeting all of his chickens and potbellied pigs, she knew then she was onto something. They grew closer, and knew they wanted a life together, different from the norm, and it became real, they shared the same dreams and set out to make them come true. Now in all seriousness, its gonna be a lot of hard work, but we will get there, one animal, one plant, one day at a time... Come with us on our journey to see how self sufficient we can become!
