We Have a Name, a Logo, and a Website!

Posted by: Maddy

I must say, coming up with a name for the farm wasn't an easy thing to do. My parents started thinking of names for the farm before we had our house on the market. Then this past year, we have been thinking harder because we needed one to start selling our products. So one night after dinner Dad had each of us take a piece of paper and a pen and start writing down ideas. Then after about 30 minutes, we started reading aloud our ideas and voting which one we all liked.

Our first name that we really liked was Summit Farms. It was simple and yet totally described what we do on the farm. So that's what we went with until we went to get an LLC. We found that someone else in Missouri already had that name. I was really bummed about that. That name just sounded so professional to me. So after awhile of thinking of some more and looking up to see if our other ideas where taken, we finally found one that wasn't taken. So our farm is officially named Peak View Farm. You can totally tell that we are from Colorado by our names right? It also works great, because our farm sits at the second highest point in the town we live in.

So after that, the next thing that we needed to do was make a website to market our meat and eggs. So Mom and I worked on that part. It was pretty fun too! For those of you who want to see it, it is peakqualitymeats.com or just click here.

The next order of business was to get a logo to put on our products. Mom worked on this part. We found one that was simple and it worked quite well for what we named our farm. It has a hill with lots of animals on it. A peak view of animals!
 This is what it looks like. Its a bit blurry so I apologize for that.

Now we need to make an entry way sign with the logo on it. We want to paint it on the sign, which won't be too hard since its all green! That will come later. We are still planning how to do that. I will post it when we get it done!

Memories From March

Hello all! We're back again! Man, what a busy month! Several birthdays, fun events, farm life, and everyday happenings! Shall we begin? This month literally started out with Norah turning 11! Here's just a few of her birthday photos!  This year, Norah requested a doughnut cake! Two doughnuts a person! Let's just say we all felt horrible that night. Loading more pigs up  Isaiah still doesn't know what to think of the sheep Izzy and Mr. Grumpy Gills  Katherine started riding a two-wheeler bike, with a little help from the training wheels! She could totally be a model!  Chick season has come around the corner...again! This will always be a favorite!  They make for good pets...when they're little anyway!  When you don't have a tractor and you need to seed the fields...  ...and chop broom grass down When Mom's not putting the food in your mouth fast enough  Meet the new bull calf, Demitri! ...

August In A Nutshell

Hello folks!  We hope you all had a great August!  This month Mom, Dad, and Isaiah drove to CO to drop Peyton and Norah off, so they could visit with our Grandmas for two weeks. They were supposed to go to Germany and Austria with Grandma Mary in June, but, due to covid19, they weren’t able to go.  But they still needed some Grandma time! We also butchered around 300 chickens this month. We’ve never butchered that many at the same time before, so we broke them up into two different butcher days. (Since we had to cut up 200 of them).  And took steers to the butcher!!!  August was also ‘drought  month’ for MO. The fields turned crispy brown,  which hasn’t been helpful for our grazing cattle.   Thankfully, we’ve gotten some good rains right at the end of the month,  and things have once again greened up! Priscilla (my cow) FINALLY had her calf!! We’ve been waiting so long for her to arrive! (YES!!! She had a heifer!!!!!!) So, the process of milk...
