Life is better
with a little dirt.

A good life is often built from very simple things.

My name is Marcie Simpson, and I’m one half of Lemon Squeezy Farms.

Sometimes you just have to cannonball. Standing safely on the sidelines might keep your hair dry, but it can also mean missing out on an awfully good adventure. My husband, Marc, and I have never been particularly interested in boring. So, even though I may still need to plug my nose before I jump, I’ve learned that some of the very best things in life begin with simply taking the leap.

For us, one of those leaps was Lemon Squeezy Farms.

We started our little farm in 2024 as two empty nesters beginning a brand-new chapter. What followed has been a journey filled with goats and chickens, gardens and chores, successes and mistakes, new life, heartbreaking losses, plenty of laughter, and more learning than we ever could have imagined.

Lemon Squeezy Farms isn’t about having the perfect farm or pretending country life is always easy. It’s about finding joy in the ordinary, appreciating the seasons we’re given, learning as we go, and discovering that a good life is often built from very simple things.

Around here, there is always something happening. Animals need tending, gardens need weeding, fences need fixing, eggs need gathering, and occasionally somebody is somewhere they absolutely are not supposed to be.

And I wouldn’t have it any other way.

This site is where I share our adventures, the things we’re learning, the stories that make us laugh, and the moments that remind us why we took that cannonball leap in the first place.

Welcome to Lemon Squeezy Farms.

Life doesn’t have to be perfect to be pretty darn sweet.
