We’re back with another Next Level Nerds episode, and this one’s packed with real-world farming grit and laughs. 🐓🌱

Meet Bernadine & Ray from Redmond Hills Farm in Oregon. They’ve turned retirement into full-time farming—raising pasture-raised Cornish chickens, quail for eggs & meat, and even working with Longhorn cattle. But their journey is far from simple…

🔥 In this episode:
✔️ Navigating farm-use tax laws & building permits in Oregon
✔️ Expanding from chickens to quail (and now selling chicks to farm stores)
✔️ Dealing with cougars, bears & owls raiding the flock 🦉🐾
✔️ How HOAs tried to ban their “live eggs” 🤯
✔️ The struggle (and fun) of turning a hobby into a profitable farm business

If you’ve ever thought about taking your backyard flock to the next level, or just want to hear some wild farm stories, this episode is for you!
