June Updates from Bar Rocking N

Summer has officially settled in here at Bar Rocking N, and the farm is buzzing with life—literally and figuratively. From fuzzy new animals to a garden bursting with goodness, every day brings a little more joy (and a whole lot of dirt under the nails). Here’s what’s happening around the homestead:

Two New Baby Bunnies
We’re excited to share that we have two new baby bunnies on the farm! These little ones are part of our meat rabbit program, which we’re expanding with care and purpose. We aim to offer rabbit meat starting this fall, providing a sustainable, ethically raised protein option for our local community. For now, these sweet babies are thriving and growing fast!

Nine New Chicks for Our Laying Flock
We’ve also welcomed nine new chicks to the farm! They’re still in the brooder, but before long they’ll join our hardworking hens, who are laying like absolute champs right now. Nothing beats farm-fresh eggs, and our flock is keeping our baskets full each day. These new chicks will help ensure we stay well-stocked for months to come.

The Garden is in Full Swing
The garden is giving us everything we hoped for—and more! Right now, we’re harvesting:

Okra

Zipper peas

Cream 40 peas

Corn

Tomatoes

Pickling cucumbers

Peppers (hot & sweet!)

And of course, a variety of herbs that we keep growing year-round

With so much coming in, the kitchen has turned into a preserving powerhouse. We’re canning tomatoes, pickling cucumbers, blanching and freezing peas, drying herbs, and putting up as much food as we can for the seasons ahead. There’s something so satisfying about a pantry shelf lined with homegrown jars—it’s the heartbeat of our homestead kitchen.

Handmade with Love: Sewing & Embroidery
When we’re not outside, we’re at the sewing machine or embroidery machine. Right now we’re focused on practical, beautiful pieces like beeswax breadbags, farmhouse aprons, and homey touches for around the house. Every stitch reminds us to slow down and appreciate the art of homemade living.

Fresh-Milled Flour for Everyday Favorites
Our fresh-milled flour continues to be one of our favorite ingredients in the kitchen. From rustic loaves and biscuits to cookies and pie crusts, milling our own grains adds a depth of flavor (and nutrition!) that store-bought flour just can’t match. If you’ve never baked with freshly milled flour, trust us—you’re in for a treat.

And don’t forget—I’m still here, ready to fill your orders for fresh milled flour goodies! Whether you're craving a warm loaf of bread, granola bars or sweet treats, the Bar Rocking N cottage bakery is always open for you. Just reach out—we’ll bake it with love and fresh-milled goodness.

Rooted in Gratitude
Whether it’s raising rabbits, gathering eggs, sewing with love, or filling the pantry with garden goodness, life on the homestead is full and fulfilling. We’re so thankful to share this journey with you and can’t wait to offer even more from our farm to yours as the seasons roll on.

Thanks for following along and supporting what we do.

With love from the land,
The Bar Rocking N Family

Hi, I'm Pam!

I began this journey more than two years ago when I made the conscious decision to live a less-complicated life. I boldly changed jobs, moving from the chaos of a post-pandemic hospital to a more steady-paced work from home position that allowed me to upgrade my 9-5 view from a tiny gray cubicle to green pastures, wildlife, and farm animals. I leaned into my faith, learned to “be still”, and paid closer attention to where God was leading me - which, at the time, seemed to be the most unlikely of places - my kitchen.

You see, I had been married to an excellent cook for more than 20 years and was the friend who was asked to bring the paper plates to a ladies potluck luncheon, so I was never challenged with learning how to bake or manage a kitchen and I became accustomed to not having the confidence to try. But in this new chapter of my life, reorganizing my priorities included saving money at the grocery store and eating healthier, so armed with determination, I educated myself and came to the conclusion I needed to bake my own bread. I quickly learned that the ingredients were easy to find and the process of creating and sharing baked goods was fulfilling, but the additives were not bringing me closer to healthy living. Over the next two years, I researched and experimented with whole grains, began milling my own flour, added a vegetable garden to the property, and established the Bar Rocking N Farm with chickens, ducks, goats, rabbits and have plans to add pigs and cattle. The result is a delicious and nutritious array of baked goods and a sense of accomplishment in actively participating in making my own dreams come true.

What started as a journey of self-improvement two years ago in my kitchen with a bread pan and a desire for cleaner living, has blossomed into a thriving little farm that not only grows food to sustain healthy bodies, but provides an outlet for creativity, a serene spot for reflection and meditation, and the setting for some interesting conversations between me and my beloved animal friends. I have learned so much about myself and what is truly important in my life, and it fills my cup to be at a place where I can share this with you!

So as you browse this site and consider the healthy food items available for purchase, I hope you are inspired to take care of yourself – mind, body and spirit. It is never too late to change the trajectory of your life and adopt a healthy lifestyle, and maximizing the nutritional value of what you eat is a great place to start.

At 50 years old, I began shifting away from what was easy and familiar and started walking in my purpose, and it has dramatically changed my life for the better. Yes, there have been obstacles along the way, but my friend, if I can overcome and find peace, so can you.

Thank you for visiting Bar Rocking N Farm and allowing me to share the story of my little farm and cottage bakery on the Homestead.

Pam ❤
