Who we are:
We are a family of four (soon to be 5) trying to create our own piece of paradise in rural Oklahoma. Nathan practices as a physician assistant and works in family medicine. Tara is a registered nurse. Samuel and Noah are our world.
About the ranch:
Murray Farm and Ranch is located in south central Oklahoma. The farm and ranch was really born out of a desire to grow, raise, and harvest more of our own food. We had motivation to become more self-sufficient. We breed and raise longhorn cattle. Vegetable gardening is central to our mission of providing more of our own food supply.
Channel Goals:
Our principle mission with the YouTube channel is to help educate viewers. So much of this way of life has been forgotten. We would like to shed light on some techniques, skills, and traditions that have been set on the wayside. Our second goal is share our joy of living a simple life on the farm. This way of life is not for everyone. Work can be hard and seem never ending. The end results though will almost certainly leave you healthier and happier. This way of life can seem so far away in the beginning but by taking just a few simple steps you as viewer can become more self-sufficient, resilient, and start your own homesteading journey.
