Feather'nDown Homestead

Welcome to our channel - Feather'nDown Homestead.

Here we aim to show how as a family of eight we are trying to make a self sustainable life on our 10 acre homestead in New Zealand.
We started our journey raising poultry for the purpose of selling fertile eggs, as well as raising pigs, cows, goats and rabbits for meat, eggs and milk.
While we still do a lot, we downsized our fertile eggs business when our seventh baby, Evelyn arrived into our lives. We knew it was time to prioritise.
If you have watched our "let's talk" video you will know that sadly we lost our son Declan in September 2022. This knocked us down but has also inspired us to keep making videos. These moments in life where Declan has been captured on video are priceless for us to look back on. So we invite you to share our journey as it continues, as we get back into the garden, our food forest, homesteading and eventually the animals.
We aim to put up at least 2 videos a week covering this journey in a vlog style.
