SPRING BREAK
Taking a Blogging Break
It's a Holy season for us here on the urban homestead, so going to take a few days break to concentrate on some projects and re prioritize a few things.
Lots of things happening, Holy observances and it's that busy time of year. A farming life is 24/7 and it just kicked into high gear especially with Earth Day and community events just around the corner. Hmm, that reminds me, got work on a newsletter to tell folks where we'll be at and send a call out for volunteers too.
Also working on "Phase 2" Many hands make light the work, so been talking with few friends to get them on board/involved in learning the ropes here on the urban homestead. Training session are, hopefully if all goes well, in the works!
Won't be gone long - just a few days. Be back to in the saddle, er, blogging early next week.
In the meantime, stay tuned for upcoming post about capturing a swarm of bees, latest in our grey water and aquaponics adventures and more!
Whew!
Oh, and we'd like to have a shout out from folks/readers who are located in/near Tennessee and for you local yokels please make sure your RSVP for the upcoming Food & Film Night on April 18
Thanks.
Happy spring and many blessings ya'll!

I am glad you are taking time off for holy week. This is part of stewardship as well.
I am not in Tennessee - but have family in Franklin~ a small town near Nashville. If you are ever in that part of the country let us know -I'd drive from OK to TN just so say "howdy" and "thanks" to your family! You have been a source of inspiration and motivation to me for years.
Enjoy the break! It is well deserved and I hope that you get a chance to relax a little
I'm in Alabama, but just 2 hours from Nashville. Something in the works for getting y'all out here? If there is, I'd do my best to be there!
Hello Dervaes family,
Here a mail from the Netherlands. We've been following your blog for a while now, and we must say: You guys are very insprirational! Hope you enjoy a bit (?) of leisure time while taking the blog break
Have a refreshing break!
This is a Holy Week for my family and me as well. I will be taking off Good Friday to attend church and reflect on the meaning of the day. May you all have a Joyous Easter.
Have a good break - it's certainly well deserved
.
Enjoy your break!
I live in Nashville, TN, and have been reading your website/blogs for a couple of years. Now you've got me curious!
Hi, We live in Crossville- between Knoxville and Nashville. This is our second year turning our neighboorhood living lot into an edible garden. This year it's out with the front yard.
Have a lovely Easter- we'll be having a break also. Paige
TN is not far, and would be worth the drive to meet up! Enjoy your well-deserved time off.
Have a wonderful time during this time of reflection "Holy Week".
GOOD MORNING !!
We are in southeastern Tennessee, near the bottom end of the Smokies. Knoxville is an hour NW, and Chattanooga is just over an hour SW.
Are you coming to TN ??
Hello Dervaes family. I live in NE TN in the Appalachian foothills around Johnson City. Hubby and I are also working towards a sustainable future here on our little place, growing food and worms, chickens and compost, honeybees and community. Thinking of coming this way? I've got connections and a great university in town that would welcome you too. Oh yeah, used to live in Modesto, a nice enough city, but we're loving life here now.
I'm in Memphis, in the southwestern corner of TN. Love exploring your site! I'm slowly working on gardening and other projects around our house.
Hey, new here. I live in Woodbury, about 50 miles outside of Nashville. We are buying a 5 acre farm this summer, bid on it yesterday! But we have been mini-farming our 1 acre city lot for 5 years now. We can't wait to get our own chickens!
Hope you had a good Days of Unleavened Bread!
Hi,
I'm here in Nashville, TN and would love to have your family come to town. Let us know if your planning an event and I'll let everyone I know in on it. Been following your blog for about a year now. Thanks for the inspiration.
