Wild Island: Goods & Gardens ~BY APPOINTMENT ONLY~

A small family passionate about plants and food! We have an appreciation for Follow along with us on our journey!

We are a small family operating an urban homestead in Georgia. We started our journey on a remote island in Alaska where we learned the importance of food preservation and harvesting our resources. We canned the fish we harvested from the sea, created wonderfully flavored jellies and jams from the berries around our house, grew as many vegetables as our raised beds (and bedroom) could hold, and fe

d enough sourdough to feed an army. We fell in love with the process and have made it a goal to one day become self sufficient. Now in Georgia, we are fortunate to have a much longer growing season, many more sunny days, and a small plot of land we are using to the fullest. We have welcomed ducks, chickens, and rabbits to our homestead for their many benefits and to feed our egg obsession. We are facing new challenges here; clay, excessive heat, learning our new roles as parents and relearning our whole family dynamic in a drastically different space.

It’s planting day!
Using electrical tape attached to landscape staples for labeling our tomatoes this year. Last year, we made the switch to mostly determinate varieties of tomatoes to cut down on time spent pruning the tomato forests. And man, what a difference it made!

We hope everyone enjoyed Halloween and taking full advantage of this cooler weather!

If anybody has any pumpkins that they no longer want or need from Halloween, we will happily take them! We are raising pigs and we fully support "upcycling" unwanted "trash". Put your old pumpkins to good use and keep them out of a landfill! We appreciate each and every one of you.

While picking a bouquet for , this bumblebee covered in pollen came by to get one last snack before the bouquet was assembled. Our bees seem to trust us - maybe it's the thousands of flower blooms that we have right now!

Yes, that is a carrot in my hand. The greens are totally edible and make a great filler for bouquets, and they baby carrots make for a great snack.

We harvested our first sugar snap pea of the fall season! Delicious and River approved.
