We honestly didn’t think it was going to happen

We honestly didn’t think it was going to happen this year but we’re determined to make this work because we all need some fun in our lives right now!
.
Come join us on October 15th for an evening full of friends, fun and fall festivities as you learn to make your own floral pumpkin! Seasonal sips and savory bites included.
.
Visit the link in our bio to register for the event and for more details.
.
Only 25 spots so make sure to sign up now before it fills up! We reduced the cost this year to $30 to give everyone a break from this CRAZY year, plus, we do this for y’all not for the money. ☺️
.
We can’t wait to see y’all there!

Fall veggies in the ground! The weather has finall

Fall veggies in the ground! The weather has finally cooled off and the time couldn’t be more perfect to plant.
.
We planted several kinds of lettuce, spinach, Swiss chard, pak choi, celery and cabbage. Radishes, carrots and beets still to come!
.
These also do great in containers if you don’t have raised beds.
.
Don’t have a lot of sun? This is the reason to plant in! Many of these, especially lettuces, do great in a sunny or shadier garden.
.
Have you planted your fall garden yet?? What have you planted?

Yesterday was a beautiful day — perfect for inspecting our beehive with a few extra (family) hands! Frames are full of capped honey which means it’s almost time to harvest! 🍯 🐝

Crimson and clover...over and over. I never knew what that Beatles song was talking about. But now I do!
.
I’m sure I’d seen crimson clover before, but didn’t know what it was until a neighbor tore down a dilapidated house and instead of building a new one, planted a park for all to enjoy. He even added a bustling beehive and planted crimson clover so the bees could feast on it coming out of winter. And so goes the circle of life.
.
How lucky for us to get “grand kid” photos in this unique field during the two weeks or so it’s in bloom!

Last year we decided to plant a whole bed of peonies because well, they’re probably one of the best flowers out there ☺️. Either those or hydrangeas, and we already had tons of hydrangea! They’re produced absolutely stunning blooms so far, such a lovely sight in the midst of this difficult time!
.
We weren’t the only ones enthralled by them...swipe right to see some other little noses and hands reaching for them.

We’ve been working hard on our sourdough scoring

We’ve been working hard on our sourdough scoring skills and we’re pretty proud of this one! For those new to sourdough, “scoring” is a slash in the bread that helps it expand while it is baking. You can make it simple, or do a fun design!
.
Also, who else is embracing the no-makeup look during the quarantine?! It’s been fun for is to go au-natural and remember to appreciate our natural beauty!
