It's kind of like for me, some things are Swamp River Ridge (the homestead, the physical place) while others are Chicken Mama . . . [whatever], which is me, the person. I just don't think you want to spread yourself too thinly with a name for this, a name for that, and a third & fourth name for those. That gets to be TOOOOO confusing for your readers, customers, etc. <br /><br />If Blueberry Hills Farm is too common for you and you're not sure about the blanket title of Blueberry Hills Homestead, what about . . . Blueberry Hills Farmstead? <br /><br />I like No Barn Farm, too . . . even if the reality of that changes over time. <br /><br />Annnnd, for what it's worth, Good Earth Goats makes me instantly think of the Good Earth restaurants in the Twin Cities. Not necessarily a bad thing, but if you're worried over a name being too overused, Good Earth 'anything' would do it for me. <br /><br />That said, you gotta go with what YOU LOVE!!! ;)<br /><br />P.S. Re-reading what I've written here before I hit post, I REALLY like 'No Barn Farm'. Heck, you could even change the name of this blog to that (keeping the original URL). <br /><br />No Barn Farm<br /><br />No Barn Farmstead<br /><br />No Barn Farm Grazing Goats<br /><br />No Barn Farm Comfrey Poultices<br /><br />"Situated atop blueberry-covered hills that rise above the Hudson River valley of New York state, No Barn Farm is a study in determination and entrepreneurship. From humble beginnings came a goat grazing business which is enhanced with by-products including rich, organically grass-fed goat cheese and gentle-to-the-skin body soaps. Call now to arrange a tour of No Barn Farm, and don't forget to stop in at the cozy gift shop stocked with No Barn Farms handmade products."Chicken Mamahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11704834273210183660noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6138859409301308693.post-88187542662628051722010-04-06T19:55:07.513-04:002010-04-06T19:55:07.513-04:00Very creative Anon!Very creative Anon!Jordanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05712893867575841432noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6138859409301308693.post-24256902094126132932010-04-06T17:25:02.809-04:002010-04-06T17:25:02.809-04:00Comfreytable Blue Goat Farm.Comfreytable Blue Goat Farm.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6138859409301308693.post-10283591050373185912010-04-06T11:00:49.632-04:002010-04-06T11:00:49.632-04:00Excellent suggestions, all!

May or may not be reflective of the place over time, but that's OK, it makes for a good story and is catchy.LindaCOhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10316183776592482615noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6138859409301308693.post-62441544314715878902010-04-05T21:55:04.825-04:002010-04-05T21:55:04.825-04:00Maybe you could call it Mooseberry Hill. :)
Serio...Maybe you could call it Mooseberry Hill. :)<br /><br />Seriously, though--have you ever used Wordle? It will give you a word cloud from text you enter. You could gather up some of your favorite blog posts about the homestead, plug them into Wordle, and let it tell you what words you're using most often to describe your home.<br /><br />Or you could go low-tech and put one of those huge post-it notes on the wall, and every time you think of something related to your dream of the place, put it on the post-it.<br /><br />Or....go on a farm walk with your camera, and do a pictures post, and see what your readers are inspired to say...Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6138859409301308693.post-41474055859082322932010-04-05T21:04:30.139-04:002010-04-05T21:04:30.139-04:00I was just thinking about you and your kitchen whe...I was just thinking about you and your kitchen when I found this blog. http://knockoffwood.blogspot.com/ She has kitchen islands, shelves and they all look possible to do yourself.
