Welcome to the opening post on TwoBarnFarm.com! We have just closed on our property south of Jefferson, Iowa. We want this site to chronicle our trials, tribulations, and life here on the farm.Corn Crib We would love for you to share in this journey with us.

We would like to start this blog with a big thank you to the Offenburgers and Judy Von Ahsen. And don’t forget my parents. Without each of these people, Two Barn Farm would have never begun. Not that it really has gone anywhere as of yet, but it’s a start!

We have several goals in taking on this project:

1. Live a sustainable lifestyle.

2. Employ renewable energy wherever possible.

3. Remove ourselves from the constraints of a “gotta have everything” society. Work to live, don’t live to work!

4. Enjoy what Iowa and it’s wonderful small towns and people have to offer.
