So I like to think that I'm a homesteader, but I'm not. I have dreams like most, but instead of waiting for them to come true, I would rather work with what I have now. What I have is a pretty small suburban lot. My plans for the near future are an L shaped raised bed garden along out backyard fence, a pallet compost bin back behind the chicken coop, and a rain barrel near our back porch. Luckily, my brother is willing to help me with all of this. It's not too much work, but it does require a little bit of start up money, a little know how, and a few days labor. My brother has a homestead in progress about a 3 hour drive from our place. Planning a time to get together and do this is probably the hardest part.
In other news, the kids received their art packages.
I haven't been doing much except resting and staring at the wee little one.
I did manage to cook a bit. My brother brought us some produce from his garden last weekend and so I've been pulling out all of the squash and zucchini recipes.
wood or brick? Reading barnheart and a feast nearby. Hanging for greens, cooptop garden for herbs, hanging baskets for stuff, pots for tomatoes, fence, chicken book.
be keeping the kids fed, laundry, diapers, chickens, cleaning, just basic needs at this point. Not much to blog about. Ants and chickens super guilty. Screen free time.
this post took me forever to write. Few sentences a day and not sure I have anything to relay share.
