Looking for a community where learning and making mistakes is all part of the fun? We are all far from perfect, and even if we've figured something out that doesn't mean there aren't better ways to accomplish it. The best part is exchanging ideas with people who get excited about cooking, growing, making, doing, learning all while attempting to take care of this earth to the best of our abilities and knowledge.

First calendula baby of the season. Extra special First calendula baby of the season. Extra special seedling from @jamesportfarmstead !

Lemon balm, elder blossom, and chamomile sun tea! Lemon balm, elder blossom, and chamomile sun tea! So delicious. 

#Lemonbalm is known for its calming properties, as is #chamomile as it has been used  to soothe iritability for centuries. #Elder, besides its amazing aroma and flavor, has been known to help release toxins. These last few weeks of school, activities, and the chaos that ensues are always overwhelming. A little sun tea goes a long way…

Garden update; the front garden is coming along re Garden update; the front garden is coming along really well with a meditation spiral.

Slightly different take on #nomowmay. Our grass is Slightly different take on #nomowmay. Our grass is already pretty diverse and full of small flower species that we let grow and then cut only when necessary. #dandelions abound! We love taking over our grass areas with more garden beds, and lots of perennials and as many native species as possible. This front garden has been designed by the kids and we are excited to see it finally coming together. #frontyardgarden #pollinatorgarden #bees #organicgardening

Yum!  Working on getting more protein (and maybe even remembering to eat breakfast)? This is quick and delish! #backyardgarden #backyardchickens #foragedfood #growyourownfood #backyardhomestead
