Goats 
BARNYARD & BACKYARDS(11)
It’s also been awhile since I posted pictures of our little barnyard menagerie. Besides, our critters are more popular than the Urban Homesteaders themselves.

I OCCUPY….
A reader recently commented on our award winning short film Homegrown Revolution that’s on YouTube saying: “When you can do this….you don’t need to Occupy Wall Street. You can abandon Wall Street.” So, our goats decided to jump in on the action…..
(14) WILL FORAGE FOR FOOD
When raising animals in the city, one has to rely on outside sources of feed (no back forty of hay here in LA).
(9) TREE BEE TRAP
A nice brisk evening walk in the lower Arroyo Seco. Jordanne hangs a bee trap that Justin made to trap a few wild bees that are living in a sycamore trunk
(10) HAPPY WEEKEND!
I have some event announcements coming up, so stay tuned for a (finally) updated event calendar. Speaking of calendars, the new 2011 Urban Homesteading calendar is just about ready and we’ll be offering an early bird special!
(7) SATURDAY STROLL
After a busy week, boy we sure did look forward to our Saturday stroll with the goats. Saturday is our “Time Out” day in which, for 24 hours, we take ourselves off the clock and away from computers and the like. Nothing de-stresses and renews the spirit a body like a walk in nature with these creatures.
(19) GOT MILK?
This week, Fairlight the foodie, gets up close and personal with a jar of peanut butter. Warning: the montage of photos are not yet rated and may not be suitable for folks who are drinking their morning coffee or tea while reading….
(10) MUG SHOTS!
Oh, the personalities of the creatures here on the urban homestead – now we know what they did for entertainment in the “old days.” Forget cable, we got critters. Speaking of critters, like to send a BIG “Thank You” to Nor Cal homesteader Julia for passing along a dvd set of All Creatures Great & Small.
(14) SHOWDOWN ON THE TRAIL
The evening couldn’t have been more perfect, not too hot, not too cold. It was to time leash up the goats, go to the Lower Arroyo Seco for our weekly goat walk and stock up on oak, pine and sycamore leaves for the goatsies to eat during the week.
(7) FRIENDS, FOOD & GOATS
You never know when friends drop by the urban homestead for a visit – even better they never know what to expect!
