Welcome to the Homestead Blog Hop!
We’re deep into the throes of summer, and we’re planning on harvesting our garlic soon! Anyone else prepping for garlic harvest, or already done it?
We’re also fighting with the resident rabbits and they are winning at the moment. So, anyone with experience in winning against rabbits is welcome to leave their wise words with us. With this being our 5th year growing, and the FIRST year we’ve dealt with rabbits on this level, I’m up to my ears in frustration. They’ve eaten all of our cabbage, collards, brussels sprouts, broccoli, and cauliflower. Talk about frustrating!
But how about some good news? We were featured on Public Market Goods this past weekend as one of their sustainability agvocates, AND we took over their Instagram account. Go and check them out and give them a follow and purchase a shirt! They’re so soft!
Now on to the Hop
Homestead Blog Hop will take place every Wednesday and is for all things homesteading: real food recipes, farm animals, crafts, DIY, how-to’s, gardening, anything from-scratch, natural home/health, self-sufficiency, self-reliance, natural remedies, essential oils, & more! Basically anything related to homesteading.
