Seed starting & Preparing for the Gardening Season - It's Time!!
Hi Reader,
I've been neglecting you and I'm sorry! Behind the scenes, I've been busting out so many blog posts for you to have great step by step guides on all things gardening this year. If you are in zone 4 or zone 5, now is the perfect time to get started on gardening. We just lost all of the snow in our yard but it's not to late to start preparing your garden.
Check out 10 ways to prepare your garden for spring.
If you really want to go all in on your garden, it's seed starting season. It's time to start tomatoes and bell peppers.
Get inspired to start your seeds by watching this week's YouTube video and start seeds with me.
Learning to garden and grow your own food is such a great aspect of eating real food. You know exactly where and how your food has grown. Plus, the most important aspect, homegrown food tastes so much better than store-bought food!
Stick around and join me on this year's crazy adventures. I have so much to show you. We are really about to get into the thick of it together. From seed starting, to transplanting, to weeding the garden, and then harvesting, preserving, and cooking the food! All while raising too many kids and too many animals!
Let's get going. From here on out, you can expect weekly emails from me on Friday mornings. I'm excited to share what I can with you.
For right now though, I'm going to listen to the rain fall on my roof, drink some coffee, and watch the 5 deer out my sunroom window. Pretty soon, the kids will be awake and life will begin.
Have a blessed day!

Hi Reader, I never feel like it's officially spring until the rhubarb is going strong. Some people love rhubarb and some people hate it.

If you have rhubarb available to you, I have a perfect recipe for you to try. And while we are speaking, I'm actually in the middle of testing new rhubarb recipes out! Rhubarb Dream Bars There is...
Hi Reader, I hope you've been getting outside as much as I have. The weather has been amazing here and so tons of gardening has been getting done. It's not complete yet as I still had a bunch of weeds and grass I had to get rid of from last year that I neglected. By late next week though, there should be a YouTube video out of me getting the garden planted. This week, I did get another row of carrots planted. Have you been succession planting any carrots? They are one of my favorite crops for...
