<p>Hello, and welcome to My Crappy Farmhouse!</p>



<p>I&#8217;m Jenn, and I live in the beautiful Wasatch Back with my incredible husband Nate. We live in a 135 year old farmhouse we purchased in 2019.</p>



<p>We have 7 amazing children who are everything good in the world.</p>



<p>After years of searching, our dream piece of land included a tiny old home that needed new life in every single inch.</p>



<p>Unfortunately for Nate I fell in love immediately and nothing was going to change my mind.</p>


<div class="wp-block-image">
<figure class="alignright size-full is-resized"><img decoding="async" width="2560" height="1920" src="https://mycrappyfarmhouse.com/wp-content/uploads/2025/04/IMG_6911-scaled.jpg" alt="The farmhouse before we moved in." class="wp-image-35" style="width:511px;height:auto" srcset="https://mycrappyfarmhouse.com/wp-content/uploads/2025/04/IMG_6911-scaled.jpg 2560w, https://mycrappyfarmhouse.com/wp-content/uploads/2025/04/IMG_6911-300x225.jpg 300w, https://mycrappyfarmhouse.com/wp-content/uploads/2025/04/IMG_6911-1024x768.jpg 1024w, https://mycrappyfarmhouse.com/wp-content/uploads/2025/04/IMG_6911-768x576.jpg 768w, https://mycrappyfarmhouse.com/wp-content/uploads/2025/04/IMG_6911-1536x1152.jpg 1536w, https://mycrappyfarmhouse.com/wp-content/uploads/2025/04/IMG_6911-2048x1536.jpg 2048w" sizes="(max-width: 2560px) 100vw, 2560px" /></figure></div>


<p>We&#8217;ve now lived here for 5.5 years and while we&#8217;ve accomplished a lot the project list is still endless.</p>



<h2 class="wp-block-heading">Plans for the Farmhouse</h2>



<p>We&#8217;re regularly asked what our plan is with the beautiful land we own and in my perfect world we&#8217;ll use it.</p>



<p>I&#8217;m sure plenty of people would see this land and envision subdividing and new homes being built.</p>



<p>That isn&#8217;t our dream though. We want to renovate, restore, rest, and grow here. I love having wide open spaces we can enjoy alone and with our family and friends.</p>


<div class="wp-block-image">
<figure class="alignleft size-full is-resized"><img decoding="async" width="1200" height="675" src="https://mycrappyfarmhouse.com/wp-content/uploads/2025/04/barn.jpg" alt="The barn behind the farmhouse." class="wp-image-30" style="width:558px;height:auto" srcset="https://mycrappyfarmhouse.com/wp-content/uploads/2025/04/barn.jpg 1200w, https://mycrappyfarmhouse.com/wp-content/uploads/2025/04/barn-300x169.jpg 300w, https://mycrappyfarmhouse.com/wp-content/uploads/2025/04/barn-1024x576.jpg 1024w, https://mycrappyfarmhouse.com/wp-content/uploads/2025/04/barn-768x432.jpg 768w" sizes="(max-width: 1200px) 100vw, 1200px" /></figure></div>


<p>My goal with this blog is to keep a journal of the things we are doing.</p>



<p>Whether that is a renovation inside the house or tearing out literal tons of buried cement from the yard we want a place where we can document the growth of the farm and our family.</p>

<p>In the last 5.5 years our family has grown from the original 9 of us. We have a wonderful new daughter in law, 6 adorable goats, 30 something chickens, 3 dogs (if you don&#8217;t count the 3 grand-dogs), and 3 cats.</p>

<p>We have been blessed over and over again.</p>



<p>Life isn&#8217;t easy but when you&#8217;re living the life you&#8217;ve dreamed of for decades it&#8217;s pretty dang good.</p>



<p>I&#8217;m very excited to share and I&#8217;m so glad you&#8217;re along for the ride.</p>
