Next Hands-On Learning Day: Saturday, May 23.
Come anytime after 11 AM. Potluck at 5:30. Bonfire to follow!! Free camping if desired! Bring drums, musical instruments, questions, enthusiasm, and your free-spirit!!
Now for what we’ve been up to and what you may find to help with….
With this being our first official spring on the homestead, we’ve been working long hours trying to get Phase 1 of our plans in place.
This year, we hope to have our educational medicine wheel garden up and fully functional, add 2500 sq. ft. of keyhole market garden space, and start our first area of food forest.
Progress with the medicine wheel garden…
Making progress on the keyhole gardens…
We’ve also added chickens and bees to the farm. A few new barnyard creatures should be arriving this week.
Ideally, we’ll also be putting in a greenhouse or hoophouse this season.
Why, you ask?
Because we are absolutely committed to being the change we wish to see in this world, and we are more eager and ready than ever to share why we love permaculture, homegrown food, herbs, and simple living with our community. We’ve been studying these ideas for well over 10 years and it’s time for us to share!!
Here’s the thing. This is a LOT for us to handle on our own. We really need your help and we’d love to share some of our knowledge with you! And of course, we’d love for you to share some of your knowledge with us!!
Are you interested in permaculture? Sustainable living? Homegrown foods?
Bees? Chickens?
Do you wonder why a keyhole garden is preferable to long square gardens with rows?
Have you ever heard of a food forest? Do you wonder why perennial crops are gaining more attention?
How have we done all this without tilling? Why have we tried to avoid that?
Do you know why this plant is one of the most valuable medicines in Ohio?
Have you ever wanted to grow your own medicine and are you curious about why I would have designed a medicine wheel garden?
Do you want to meet some awesome, like-minded people?
Please come visit us!! We’d love to have you this weekend for this next hands-on help day, but we are TOTALLY OPEN TO YOU COMING WHENEVER YOU’D LIKE!!
