As spring quickly approaches, our business priorities change from woodworking to farming (and boiling sap). Our Wiley page might be a little quiet over the next few months, so if you're looking to keep tabs on us head over to the Henstooth Homestead!

These hands built the boilers, tapped the maple trees, split the wood, stirred, filtered and bottled pure maple syrup...just for you.
Hop on our website and join our mailing list if you want first dibs!

More shirts featuring this handsome fella are headed your way. Shirts are available until the end of the month, after that they'll be just another part of history.

Happy Thursday! We're excited to announce Henstooth Homestead officially has it's own page. As we stretch towards springs we figured this may help people find our farm stand, join our csa and clear up any confusion between our two businesses.

Wiley is our woodworking business so we'll try to keep it woodworking related but there may be some cross promotion here and there.

Go LIKE our Henstooth Homestead page to keep tabs on the blueberries, orchard, and homestead activities. Next to like, make sure you're also "following us", so Facebook will show you our posts in it's tricky algorithm!

Rich has been tirelessly working in the orchard. The overgrowth is thick, so we're pulling out all the tools from saws, loppers, clippers, and tomorrow the sawzall. We always joke about how we pick the hardest path. Have you ever tried to google "reviving a 30+ year old orchard"? There's no how-to guide on this plan of ours, we're simply putting all the pieces together and crossing our fingers. 🤞

Sweet Blueberry Slumber. They look so peaceful when they're dormant, like sleeping kids, cats, and boyfriends. 😂 If you need a little Monday reading Part 3 of our Blueberry Journey is now live

As the year comes to a close we're opening up about our first year in a letter to the Henstooth Homestead. It's vulnerable territory for us but we feel it's important to document how far we've come, to know where exactly we're headed in 2018. We also write with hope that it may inspire others but also offer a recap for those of you who have cheered us on since day one. 😘

Thanks for all your support, and Homestead thanks for a good run. We can't wait to see what's in store for the new year ahead. 🎉 Check out the post now !

It's officially getting cold. 😨 So today I'm snuggled under a blanket in the office working on a few new programs to launch in the new year. We can't wait to share all the ways our little homestead is growing and are excited to offer those of you far and near the opportunity to grow with us. 😊

Looking at the first day of winter like "What happen to all the snow?". 🐶

After cooking for the holidays for 3+ days straight it's always nice to fall back on some quick and easy meals. Salsa Verde is not only a festive addition to your Holiday spread but also the perfect ingredient for easy evening meals. 👌
This summer we were bombarded by tomatillos in our garden, and made more batches of Salsa Verde than I can count. At first it felt like a burden until we realized its versatility. From snacking, to a taco tuesday topping and even as a main ingredient in meals - check out our latest post for our go to recipes!

Make a small batch of fresh Salsa Verde for an instant snack, to canning large quantities & even a few cooking recipes that use Salsa Verde too.
