Lovely images and I enjoyed reading about all you do on your acreage.
Thank you Daisy!
It’s amazing that you make such efficient use of a single acre of land. The photos are beautiful and it’s great that you share the good and bad parts of homesteading!
Thanks Maureen 🙂 I don’t want to sugar coat the homesteading lifestyle…people need to know it’s not all sunshine and daisies!
That was fun to read. I’m amazed at all you do on an acre!
Thanks Manuela! There’s so much more I would like to fit in 🙂
Thanks for sharing. It’s great to hear all this from an experienced homesteader. We are just starting out and it is fun to experience the homesteading while reading about others and where they have knowledge.
