Lord help us if this is a hobby! Just joking, we love our little farm and named it Red Gate Farm because--ta da!--our three gates are red! We are so-o-o-o-o imaginative.
Harlequin Creek is a lovely name. It conjures up a vision of tranquility, somehow.

i call my chickens my mother cluckers, and my place mother cluck'n farms.

If you do a search, somewhere a couple of years back is this same thread. But, it will be interesting to see if there are some new names out there.
Ours came from my father -- after he sold the horses and bought a tractor to pull the plough.

Busy Solitude Farm, from a Voltaire quote: "The happiest of all lives is a busy solitude."

Well my farm is the way I earn my living, so not exactly a hobby. But our place is called Promised Land Farm
From the Bible when the Lord told Abraham he would make him a great nation and give them a Promised Land, sorry that I paraphrased the passage.

My husband and I just bought our hobby farm two years ago because it was both our dreams to have some land and have livestock and gardens and do it our way and at our pace..... we now have over 250 livestock and poultry and are having a blast learning and living it all.....our last name is Miller....so our farm is called Miller's Way Farm..... ta dah !!

Providence Acres Farm because it was a gift from God.

Ours is DOUBLE B Farm with interlocking Bs for our first and last name

Naming the farm was the hardest thing we did. We tried several names on for size, and no doubt confused the mail carrier in the process. None of them seemed to fit perfectly. Finally, when I became the likely sole owner, it fell upon me to name the farm once and for all. I liked the name Arcadia, but there was already an Arcana Farm not too far away. Finally, a beautiful agrarian nymph with whom I was enamored, suggested Arcadia Brook Farm. Given that there was an unnamed ephemeral brook running through the property, it seemed the perfect choice. And so it is named. Though I have not seen her in many years, I thank you Elizabeth!

We call our home Hambrite Acres. The Hambrite Creek runs through our 5 acres.

Enamored is a great word, sorry to interrupt the flow.

acer,

I kicked around three names, not the dogs. Black Dog Farm, Two Dog Farm and settled on "Double Dog Farm".

Ours is Kennelwood as we used to have (and still have a few) sled dogs and we raise goats and veggies--and we are in a birch forest.

Eric,
I'm a Tarheel (a native of North Carolina), but in 1991 I did an internship in North Cascades National Park. I lived in Stehekin and absolutely fell in love with the place. I remember seeing wild Harlequin ducks and marveling at how beautiful they were and that they literally lived on the Pacific in the winter. And, there was Harlequin campground and a real Harlequin Creek. That's where my farm name comes from, whenever I actually get around to growing and promoting it. And of course I have Welsh Harlequin ducks and a creek. I love it here (my family is nearby), but I've often told my husband that the only other place I could be happy would be Stehekin, Port Angeles, or the San Juan Islands. You are SO lucky!

acer,
I've been to Winthrop,Tswip,Leavenworth,Chelan,Brewster,Ross Lake. So all around Stehekin but never there.

Moved to San Juan Island fall 2001. Volunteer at the San Juan National park. British Camp mostly. Reenactment 1859-1872 soldier and Blacksmith.

I get off the Island about 4 times a year. Hate Seattle traffic.

What a coincidence! My husband and I are "parkies" too. He's career NPS (Great Smoky Mtns NP), and I've worked in several myself. I drove through San Juan NHP and the British and American camps back in '91. I was with my Dad and we were overwhelmed with how beautiful the area is. I want to live near Friday Harbor. If I could move anywhere, it would be the San Juans.
Here's the view from our back porch, the "creek" in Harlequin Creek:

I don't really have a real farm (YET), but I'm working on it. Right now it's a few fruit trees and some ducks:

Shannon,
My neighbor Ron Garner twisted my arm until I joined as a volunteer. He started his NPS in Ohio and just retired here 2009.

You have a nice place. I like the trees, stream and waterfall. Beautiful ducks, especially the Cayuga drake.

I have a seasonal artifical stream thru my property. With strategic ditches, colverts, I was able to direct run off through my place. Duck pond, streams and capped off with a waterfall

Mystic Meadows Daylily Farm ... "hobby" daylily nursery.

Everything is overseen by the donkeys!

Pam,

How about 3D Farm. Daylilies,Donkies and Dogs. What no DUCKS!

Great looking place. To bad about the power pole right in the middle of things. You can keep the snow to. :-) You may already know this, daylily is an edible flower

I built some raised garden boxes for the neighbor. They were for growing vegetables. She's slowing filling them up with daylilies, poppies and dahlias

Eric

LOL Eric, no ducks ... donkeys, dogs and cats are enough for me to care for now. Yes, I do know daylilies are edible, and have tasted my share.

I like your water feature!

I do the raised beds because the front area is prone to flooding ...

Here are my silly dogs ...

Dakota

PS ... love the pictures of your labs ...

That's a lot of water in the flood photo. Rain run-off??

You have great dogs too. "Hairy children". They look like there as helpful as my dogs.

Eric

Yes, that front "pasture" (previous owner had his stallion in that field) is the low spot for water on the way down the hill. When we get 2 inches of rain in 2 hours, this field gets flooded.

Notice the water flooding over my neighbors driveway ..
{{gwi:49271}}

{{gwi:49272}}

LOL .. they are SOOOO helpful! I keep thinking of getting a third dog since Lily needs someone to play with. Dakota is 13, and is very stiff & creaky these days.

Your's look very happy!

I named our farm, GloryBe Farm. When we made the last payment on the land I hugged my husband and said, "Glory Be!" We are having a sign made for our front gate that says GloryBe Farm, and at the bottom of the sign,All Glory Be to God. After all, God did give us this wonderful life on a farm with animals.

We bought our place in 1983 just after we married. Believe it or not but we JUST settled on a name THIS WEEK!!! Honeysuckle Haven!!! For all the Honeysuckle we have fought over the years to build our gardens some of the vines six inches across! So our home and farm finally has a name! YEA!
