Lost Country Acres

Both Troy and Aimee grew up in very small towns in middle Tennessee. Troy grew up in a small trailer park on 1/2 acre where he learned to grow a few tomato plants each summer. Aimee grew up on a large farm where they raised tobacco and milked several cows. They have lived for over 25 years in a small town subdivision, where they raised a small garden and preserved what they could. But with the limitations of their HOA, they always wanted to be able to do more. After their daughter graduated High School, they sold their home and purchased a 10 acre farm to live out their dream. Now they are raising most of their own food, just as their grand parents did before them.
Please follow along with us as we revisit some of the old ways and share our journey. Raising a large garden, chickens, building structures, canning and cooking are just a few of the things we plan to share with you.
