What We're Growing

I can’t lie, I’m bursting with excitement for the 2019 growing season. This will be our third summer on our homestead and it’s finally starting to feel like we enough infrastructure in place and enough experience on our land to really start producing a lot! The last few months has been all about dreams and plans for summer! We spent many hours cuddled up in this drafty old farm house thumbing through seed catalogs, compiling a project list, drawing garden maps, and creating a planting schedule. You guys, we’re growing well over 100 varieties of food this year!

What are you growing? Do you have certain varieties you grow every year? What are you most excited to grow this year?

Most of my seed collection has come from Territorial Seed Company, Baker Creek Heirloom Seeds, Adaptive Seeds, and Osborne Seed Company. Here are some (but NOT ALL) of the plants we will have grown on this little homestead in 2019.
