Dear “Little Homestead” Readers,
A VERY VERY Happy Summer to you all!
My sincere apologies on lack of updates and postings. It’s been awhile! Hope everyone is well? No, we haven’t fallen off the face of the earth and appreciate all the emails inquiring about our well being (so sweet!)
Just been extremely busy not only growing a garden but community too! These days our events calendar is chock-a-block full of workshops & skill shares, in addition to farm dinners celebrating local foods and music.
Ok, so lemme see… what’s happened since my last post… jumping grasshoppers! a lot!
Highlights:
Quail are laying
2 of our older hens passed peacefully
Took in 3 hens that needed homes
Happy Birthday to Us! This July we”ll be celebrating 13 years online. That means we are “older” than Google, Facebook and YouTube!
Rescued a few abandoned animals that were dropped off (dog, bunny, kitty) … one we kept, a kitty who is now best buds with our dog Marley
Good Eggs LA now carries our produce and preserves that can be delivered to your door – for FREE!
Launched SKILL SHARE Tuesdays & Thursdays – so far we’ve done bookbinding, cooking with native foods, canning, raising chickens, knitting, mending, fermenting foods & drink
Homestead Hub – new workspace area for homesteading classes
Farm Box program and pick up on Wednesday
3H Club (Homeschool Homestead Helpers)
Partnered with local foodies the Provision Room to provide more food crafting classes
Lots of out-of-town visitors
Summer garden is in full swing
And I am sure there’s is much much more
