Disclosure Statement and Privacy Policy

Disclosure Statement

This blog is a personal blog written and edited by me. For questions about this blog, please contact  me at mail@1840farm.com.

This blog accepts forms of advertising and sponsorship in the form of rented space for image ads.  We also accept products to be evaluated and reviewed or offered as giveaways to our readers.   We are very selective about the advertising placed on our blog and products reviewed.  We only accept sponsorships from companies who provide products that we have personal experience with and use here at 1840 Farm.

1840 Farm abides by word of mouth marketing standards. We believe in honesty of relationship, opinion and identity.  Compensation received from sponsors will not influence the topics or posts made on this blog.  Sponsored posts will be clearly labeled as such.

Product reviews will include our honest opinions about the product(s) reviewed.  Products that do not meet our standards of daily use on our farm will not be reviewed.  It is our goal to provide you with our personal experience using a product in a positive and informative manner so that you can determine its usefulness in your life.  It is not our goal to negatively review a product that while not an ideal fit for our farm, might perform very well on yours.

I have personally learned which products would be a good fit for our farm by reading reviews written by other homesteaders and bloggers.  It is in that vein that I choose to review products here.  It is my hope that my reviews will help readers to determine which products might be best suited for use in their homes and on their homesteads.

Samples of the products that I review are sent to me at no expense in order to allow me to use the product and evaluate its performance.  The framework of our review process does not guarantee a positive review in exchange for the product provided.  Our product reviews contain both facts about the product and my personal opinion of its performance while it was used at 1840 Farm.

This blog does not contain any content which might present a conflict of interest.  The views and opinions expressed on this blog are purely our own.  Any product claims, statistics, quotes, or other representations about a company or product should be verified with the party in question.
