Is this the best animal in the world? It eats the leftovers you can't force yourself to. It eats the ticks and ants in your yard. It produces an awesome compost mix (bedding/poop). It provides hours of entertainment for you and the kids. And it also poops 🍳 almost everyday! #backyardchickens #chicks

A wrap on the garden beds, a kick-ass protest in Raleigh, and hanging with the kids in the pool: couldn't ask for a better weekend all things considered. #ncgardening #FDT

It's been a minute. So many highs and so many lows these past few days? weeks? years?. Raised bed progress so far....cause I gotta toot toot just a little to recharge.

They're coming along. Feeling cute, might plant some onion sets later, idk.

Rosy made me a sweater!

Back at it. Rough cut oak delivered, cut, stacked, and charred. Enough for 4 8x3x2 ft beds ready for assembly. Can't wait to get them built, filed, and planted. Ready for the inflation, hoarding, suspicion, and next great depression yet? #homesteading #ncgardening

Looks so much better in the bed down from my porch than it ever does in the bag at the store. #mebane #ncgardening #lettuce #gardening

I'm almost 41. 8-38 year old me would have laughed at how much peace and satisfaction I get from these little songbirds. I threw that simple feeder together from scrap wood just a couple of weeks ago...also a stupid amount of satisfaction for something so simple. #songbirds #ncwildlife #smallthings

The ladies were none too happy about this weird white crunchy stuff all over the place. #chickens #nchomesteading

Asparagus crown transplanting this morning. Jury is still out on if I enjoyed it, but I'm happy it's done. Do what needs doing. #ncgardening #gardening #getshitdone #asparagus #mebane

One bad day: we raise our own meat birds for many reasons, but knowing they lived a good life up until the end is #1. #onebadday #chickens #meatbirds #homesteading If you are near #mebane NC and want to learn more, hit us up.

The surprises you find when going out for a quick weeding between zoom calls are always fun. Just another added benefit of the garden. Can't wait for this spring! #gardending #wildlife

You don't have to do it all! But you'd be surprised what you can take on when your head's in the right place...and what you're doing helps keep it there. The garden is that for me. #growsomething #homesteading #gardening #motivation

Raised beds for $30 each instead of $200? Connect with your local sawmill! You'll be surprised at the cost difference. New beds in process and some finished examples and some chicken/barn cat pics to round us out! #growsomething #gardening #homesteading #chickens
