After months of planning, designing, and second-guessing ourselves, we finally launched our website! Welcome to the official online home of Sulbi Talu, where we’ll be sharing our journey as we build a sustainable farm operation here in the beautiful Estonian countryside.
A Digital Foundation
Every farm needs roots, and in today’s connected world, those roots extend into the digital realm. This website represents more than just an online presence—it’s our platform for sharing knowledge, connecting with fellow farmers and agricultural enthusiasts, and documenting the real-world challenges and victories that come with building something meaningful from the ground up.
It’s bare bones but enough to get it started. That simple honesty captures exactly where we are right now. We’re not trying to impress anyone with flashy design or pretend we have everything figured out. This is a working farm website for a working farm, built by people who are learning as we go.
Starting Simple, Dreaming Big
The beauty of launching something simple is that it gives you room to grow. Every farm starts with basic infrastructure—a barn, some fencing, the essential equipment—and builds from there. Our website is following the same philosophy. We’ve got the foundation in place: a way to share our stories, connect with our community, and document our progress.
Much more will be added soon. That’s not just a promise; it’s a commitment to the ongoing nature of both farming and storytelling. As our farm grows and evolves, so will this digital space. New animals will mean new stories. Seasonal changes will bring fresh challenges and insights. Each success and failure will add to the wealth of experiences we hope to share.
Building Community
Farming has always been about community, and social media allows us to extend that community far beyond our geographic neighbors. We’re excited to connect with fellow farmers, homesteaders, and anyone interested in sustainable agriculture, whether they’re across town or across the world.
Here’s where you can find us across the social media landscape:
- Facebook – For daily updates and community discussions
- Instagram – Behind-the-scenes photos and visual storytelling
- Tumblr – Longer-form thoughts and agricultural musings
- Twitter – Quick updates and connecting with the broader farming community
- Mastodon – Supporting decentralized social networking
Each platform offers different ways to connect and share our story, and we’re committed to being active participants in these communities, not just broadcasters of our own content.
What to Expect
This website will become the central hub for everything happening at Sulbi Talu. You can expect:
- Farm updates – Regular posts about our animals, crops, and seasonal activities
- Learning experiences – Honest accounts of our successes and failures
- Practical insights – Tips and techniques we’ve learned along the way
- Seasonal stories – How farming life changes throughout the Estonian year
- Community engagement – Responses to your questions and discussions about sustainable agriculture
The Journey Ahead
Launching this website feels like planting a seed. We don’t know exactly what it will grow into, but we’re committed to nurturing it with consistent content, authentic storytelling, and genuine engagement with our community.
Every farm has its own personality, its own rhythm, its own story to tell. Sulbi Talu’s story is just beginning, and we’re excited to have you along for the journey. Whether you’re an experienced farmer with wisdom to share, a fellow beginner learning alongside us, or simply someone who enjoys following along with rural life, you’re welcome here.
Thank You
To everyone who visits this site, follows our social media, or simply supports what we’re trying to build here at Sulbi Talu—thank you. Farming is challenging work that’s made infinitely better by having a community that understands and supports the vision.
This is just the beginning. Here’s to the adventures ahead!
