Magnolia Bend Academy & Homeschool

Well hello there! Welcome! We  are a homeschooling family in southwest Florida. Follow along as we homeschool, attempt gardening, and aim to raise our kids to work hard and love their creator. 

Homeschooling

Since 2018 we've been homeschooling in Florida. I'll talk to anyone about our journey and what has worked and not worked for our family. Beware though,  it'll change tomorrow.

Homesteading

Milking Nigerian goats, raising chickens, raising Kune Kune pigs, making non-sourdough bread, gardening, canning & preserving, hydroponics and whatever we do at home.

Home

Home Home Home. We love being home. Being home means being together. Baking, cooking, decorations, organization (or lack there of), activities, games and more. 

Rabbitry

Fluffle Farm is our Holland Lop and Netherland Dwarf rabbitry in Bradenton, Florida. We raise buns for pets, breeding, 4H/FFA and cute husbandry with a touch of science and genetics.

Keeping a Tally

Each year that passes I am reminded of the fact that I do NOT have a green thumb and my husband takes all projects and explodes them instantly. When I said I wanted a garden, he tilled 1/4 acre. We started an aviary of parrots, and quickly had a 12x24 tack room full of them with two incubators, huge buckets of bird formula, and hundreds of needle-less syringes. A few bunnies multiplied to 4 12x12 stalls of two rows of cages and over 2000 website views a month with a waitlist over 300 submissions long. A pair of pregnant dairy goats to help get our daughter with Cows Milk Protein Allergy a different source of protein turned into me with my arm elbow deep in the hooha of a goat hooking a hoof to help her deliver. It's amazing sometimes to see just how much has come from the last few years, and I'm excited to see what the next hold -- no matter what they look like. Jesus be the center of it all.
