urban homestead

The sun & some warmer temps drew us out this weekend. We worked like crazy in the yard & garden on Saturday. There's plenty more to be done, but we are well on our way to creating our little urban homestead.

Then we grabbed the lawn mower, gloves, shovels, spades, seeds, & compost and made some serious progress.


I was pretty wiped by the end of the day, but it feels absolutely wonderful to till the earth & plant the food that will feed our bodies & souls. Unfortunately, we're not ready to house chickens yet this year, but we are expanding the veggie garden to almost twice its current size. Oh, I'm happy. My dreams of a simple, connected-to-the-earth home are coming true, and I am grateful.
