We are excited to be knocking out another project, the She-Shed is being upgraded with new decking, electrical, wifi, raised garden beds and a shed roof. This space serves many uses. Our office, a welcome reception area for guests, as a classroom, for hanging out and entertaining, and as a retail shop. We will share updates when complete, and look forward to visiting with you here!

We are the proud new owners of a used tractor! Thank you to all of my real estate clients who have made this my best year yet and this purchase possible. Tears of joy would not justifiably summarize how good it feels to know we don’t have to manually buck a few thousand pounds of hay and feed in a day by hand anymore. El Capitan will be able to lift some logs onto the mill, pull my horse trailer, do hay rides, muck and drag our pastures, and so much more, too. Life is good!

Maybe one of our biggest dreams has just become a reality. Tony got the mill his heart has been set on for years. He found it on a small, obscure, online estate sale auction up in Minnesota last October. We won the bid, then it was shipped to Baker, the manufacturer in St. Louis. They spent a few months in maintenance on it, replacing hydraulic lines etc and it just arrived to Daufuskie. The name Big John is tribute to Tony’s father who passed away before we ever met and taught Tony so much about carpentry and construction. We will be selectively harvesting the timber on our property to make room for pasture and milling the logs into horse fencing, barn posts, beams, siding, decking…!

We finally received our permanent power at the house after submitting very long awaited, as-built architectural plans to Beaufort County. Thank you to everyone who helped us pull off this astonishing and ever rewarding feat!

The culture, history and heritage that the Marsh Tacky represents belongs to all of us and it should be celebrated by everyone!
