Our friends who generously gifted us the land for our new house have been asking us what we are going to name our homestead. I hadn’t thought much about it really….who knew how difficult it could be to think of something unique and personal to the land.
Not too long ago they mentioned they had found some really cool old documents and papers stuffed behind the wall where their fireplace is (they live in the original old farmhouse of the larger farm), and a few of them happened to be correspondence from the old farm which was named “Sunny Slope Farm.”
That being its historic name, I couldn’t think of a better more fitting name for the homestead 🙂
