Welcome to the Homestead Blog Hop!
Happy full spring, although I think that Chicago is expecting it’s last Winter this weekend and therefore we will be given the go-ahead to plant in a week or two. My plant starts and regular seeds are CRYING to get out into the soil, and I can’t wait to plant in the Garden Tower that we have for We Sow We Grow. They even have a sweet Mother’s Day sale going on now with a $60 discount for you. Use MD21 and snag one for yourself. Shipping is quick and the assembly was quick as well. Before we plant anything there though, we have to protect it from the tiny dinosaurs who live with us in our backyard.
We also got trellises installed, and row covers put up. We’re on a roll this season, and I can’t wait until we get our permanent space for the non-profit AND farm. Consider helping us out if you can. We’d appreciate it, and all donations are tax-deductible!
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.
