Welcome Back to Wildcrafting Wednesday

Summer Schedule Announcement

Since many families are on vacation or busy with their gardens, we just don’t have as much time in the summer to keep up with daily posts. Starting this week we’ll go to a reduced summer schedule here on the HomeAcre. I’ll really need the time to work on my homestead, butchering the meat birds, and canning up our winter provisions, like strawberry jam.

You’ll still find the hops here each week and I’ll be sharing as much homesteading action as I can. You can read my posts over at The Prepper Project each week, too. I hope you have a wonderful summer and visit with us often!

 

Stop by my friend Jenny’s wonderful blog for her blogoversary giveaway! You won’t want to miss it!

Welcome to the ninety-second edition of Wildcrafting Wednesday!

Wildcrafting Wednesday is hosted by:

• Sharon @ Woodwife’s Journal,
• Katherine @ Mind, Body, and Soul
• Jennifer @ The Entwife’s Journal,
• Susan @ Essential Traditions,
• Anne-Marie @ Bella Vista Farm,
• Alix @ Blessed in Homemaking,
• Jerica @ Sustain, Create and Flow,
• and me!

While traditional wildcrafting refers to gathering herbs and plants in the wild to use for food and medicine, Wildcrafting Wednesday is a weekly blog hop for sharing self-sufficiency and homesteading tips, tried and true home-remedies, and your favorite herbal uses.

It’s a place to gather information on ways to incorporate old fashioned wisdom in our day-to-day life.

It is anything and everything herbal - from crafts to cleaning to tinctures to cooking.

It is remedies and natural cures made at home from natural ingredients.

It is self-sufficient living, homesteading, and back-to-basics tips to save food, money, and resources.

If it involves herbs or traditional methods of homemaking and home healing then we want to read about it!

In other words, Wildcrafting Wednesday is a “one stop shop” for the past weeks best tips and simple steps to become more healthy and more self-reliant! Please join us!

Thank you to every one of our bloggers who linked up and to all of our readers for helping us pick our featured posts!

 

Guidelines for Participation:

1. Please link up your blog post using the Linky widget below. If you are posting a recipe, only real food recipes are permitted please. This means no processed, packaged, or refined food ingredients!

2. Please link the URL of your actual blog post and not your blogs home page. That allows future readers who find this post and go to your link to be able to find what they’re looking for.

3. Please place a link back to this edition of the blog hop in your post. That way your readers can benefit from all the ideas too. This also helps out the other participants who are hoping to get more traffic to their blogs. If you’re new to blogging here’s what you do: Copy the URL of Wildcrafting Wednesday from your browser address bar. Then edit your post by adding something like, “This post was shared on Wildcrafting Wednesday” at the end of your post. Then highlight “Wildcrafting Wednesday”, click the “link” button on your blogging tool bar, and paste the URL into that line. That’s it! If you prefer, you can grab the button below and insert it at the end of your blog post. Either way is acceptable!

4. Please only link posts that fit the blog hop description. Old and archived posts are welcome as long as you post a link back as described above. Please don’t link to giveaways or promotions for affiliates or sponsors. That keeps our links valuable in the future since a link to a giveaway three months old isn’t going to be worth browsing in three months time, but a link to an herbal tip will be.

5. Posts containing profanity will be deleted without notification.

6. Please leave a comment.

7. And bloggers, please check out the other posts and leave a comment for them too. I know that we would all love to hear from each other.
