Oh wow. It’s been half a year since I last posted. Do I even remember how to do this??? Reels are the new thing? Um, yeah No thank you. I still feel all the resistance to post today as I swirl in mixed feelings about social media and a heavy o
My agenda laid out on a counter… milk and pasteurize for coffee (make a batch of yogurt while you are at it), harvest for three produce to-go boxes for our local pickup mailing list (swipe to see some of the beauty going out as snack boxes, he
Currently eating my feelings with this seasonal salad inspired by the cucumber chickpea salad with lemon herbed tahini sauce shared by @andreabemis. I used kohlrabi instead of radishes, topped it with blackberries to entice the kiddos to eat it, swap
The human kids and I have been having daily goat kid cuddling sessions each morning as these cuties wean & transition to being away from mamas. They are living instead with our babysitter goat auntie Violet… before heading to new homes. We
First dahlia, first eggplant, first tomatoes, first blackberries. Zucchini’s lining every surface of the kitchens …. both indoors and out. Long beach days and sunset campfires with smores. Endless fruit processing with dehydrator humming
Family plum harvest….definitely swipe to hear my sons harvest song. It’s worth it. You will also hear My daughter {who sometimes complains about farm life and has decided she wants to live in the city when she grows up} say in a plum-lov

Some of the recent harvests… . I’ve been enjoying writing weekly emails with tidbits & recipes for our little fresh food pickup mailing list. In addition to the singular items available like kale, root veggies, & lettuce, I&rsqu

I’ve been eating this 4th of July cheesecake covered in homestead berries each night for the last week and now that it’s gone I don’t know what to do with myself. Looking forward to a slice of this creaminess as the sun went down wa
Since we last talked, we survived a majorly crazy heat wave here in the Pacific Northwest and we are now living in a jungle…lions and tigers and bears oh my. But really barn cats and dragonflies and snakes oh yay! The grape vines and kiwis are
Is it a bouquet? Should I put it in a vase? Nope, you should eat it!! Edible flowers and herb bundle (chives, chive flowers, mints, oregano, rosemary, pansies, calendula, thyme, garlic scapes, bunching onions, lemon balm, sage) and rhubarb bundle, he
