Harvest Breeze Farm Mini Blog
Wow! The last month has been a whirl wind, between preparation for our county fair, the fair
it's self and taking animals home I was ready for a vacation. It was very hot and humid which
was hard not only on the animals but us, everyone made it home safe and sound with out
any issues. The kids did well with their projects, I will create a fair 2010 page which will high
light the week. My daughter Kinsey was in Supreme Showmanship again which was exciting
and an honor to be there, this was her second year and just as fun to watch as last year.

I currently have young stock and chicks coming out of my ears!! I've been working the last
couple days on cleaning and organizing pens, I'm making additional pens for babies to
grow. I still have several hens setting on eggs so their will be no shortage on birds to sell.

I also had fun taking my daughter Kinsey for her senior pictures they are so good, if you have
a face book you can look see the pictures at Julie Abston Photography. It will be hard to
choose which pictures to keep, they are all so good! Thank you Julie!!

Kids are back in school in a couple weeks!! The summer has flown by AGAIN!

Hi, my name is Shari McCollough. Welcome to Harvest Breeze Farm's website. Me, along with my husband
Larry have 5 beautiful children, Haley 20, she is a sophomore at Purdue University, Kinsey 17, Reagan
14, Kyle 12 and Mason 6. It's a full time job but very enjoyable!! Our hobby farm is located in West
Central Indiana. We are in the heart of the corn belt! I absolutely LOVE where we live. It's in the country,
surrounded by fields of corn and soybeans. I really enjoy the privacy, peace and quiet. Our farm is FULL of
life.  We always have something going on; if it's not the new chicks hatching, it's baby kids being born. We
currently have: two llamas (Equalizer and Majestic), 23 pygmy goats, and several chickens. I focus only on
the bearded silkies and bantam cochins. We also have three dogs; Zoey(German Shepherd), Oliee(Jack
Russell Terrier) and Isabella(Boston Terrier). Our family also enjoys reptiles, we have a Brazilian
Rainbow Boa named Rain and a Bearded Dragon named Louie and two pet rats Tooie and Nakie. Never a
dull moment here trust me:)

I am currently participating in my 5th year of exhibiting poultry and my 7th year of breeding silkies and
cochins. We are currently raising silkies in: white, black, splash ,and blue, now WORKING on lavender. We
raise bantam cochins, in white, black, blue and splash varieties.  

We are not a hatchery, we raise our birds for our own enjoyment first, our goal here is not money, it's
raising the best, breeding to the standard set for each species in mind at all times. We only breed from
animals that are Vigorous, Productive, Fertile, Disease Resistant and Live long Healthy lives. Yes,
Longevity is very important to me, after all without life you cannot possess any of these other important
traits.   

Feel free to stop by anytime, I try to update once a week, I work and my family comes first so once a week
updates don't always happen. I also do not always answer emails as they come in, so don't worry if I don't
answer in the first day, I'm just a very busy person and don't always have time to jump on the computer.
With that said, thank you for stopping by!!

Hugs,
The McCollough Family
