100 FOOT DIET CHALLENGE(28)
We started this challenge a couple years back, and it was very popular and successful in getting folks to eat closer to home. With more and more folks growing their own food, we figure it’s about time we revive and relaunch this challenge!

WEEKLY MEAL WRAP UP x3
I admit, this is rather pathetic attempt at catching up to the last few weeks worth of eats. In truth, it should be 4 weeks, but with outreach, Amy and other stuff I lost one week’s meal entirely! We ate well from the garden, but I just didn’t get a chance to write it down. [...]

(1) WEEKLY MEAL WRAP UP
I certainly didn’t do a good job taking photos from last week’s meals here on the urban homestead. Guess I was too busy taking photos of other things!

(2) NOVEMBER HARVEST TALLY
“The Freedom Garden Harvest challenge was started to get more people growing food and also adding up what they grow and harvest, instead of going to the store. Many are surprised by the amount of food that they can actually grow in a small space.” From our 1/10 acre plot, our November harvest weighs in [...]

(4) WEEKLY MEAL WRAP UP
The cooler temps (just had our coldest temps last night – 30 degrees) shorter days have got the guys digging in fall crop and me digging through my stack of favorite recipes to deal with the (coming) onslaught of fall veggies and trickle of summer veggies that are still holding on. Living Like Little House [...]
