Planning for…. the fall garden. We ordered just a few seed packets after taking inventory. We’ll be starting flats of greens and herbs, working beds for root vegetables, and trying to focus on really improving a few spaces. Finally realizing… that maybe we’ve stretched it all too thin. Our two major garden spaces are both…

My Homeschool Education
I spent the morning moving between the kitchen table, little Ruthie by my side with an open first-grade book, and the sofa, under a blanket and a stack of school papers. Peppered throughout these hours are a continual stream of “Where’s Hannah?” (unless she’s in my lap) and “Hey Joshie, could you try to be…

That was beautiful. Your children are so into living on the land, its wonderful to see the boys building, measuring and working so hard and the little ladies are just too cute. Bless your gorgeous family. xxx
So beautiful!! Amazing that your young sons already know how to mix cement and “plant” fence posts! So much more useful than knowing how to play video games as most kids do. Bless you guys!!
Love the video! Thank you for sharing.
It may or may not be helpful, but every wooden fence post installed on our four acres was done a bit differently… The holes were dug then the post placed exactly as it was to stand. I held the post as my husband poured dry cement mix into the hole and tamped it down to pack it around the post. Moisture from the surrounding ground usually set the cement overnight. They are still tight and standing strong after 22 years.
