🌾 Day 2 and the final day of the Homestead Festival in Columbia, Tennessee! 🌾
What a great weekend of learning, meeting fellow homesteaders, and gathering new ideas to bring back to the homestead. We're heading home inspired and ready to put some of these ideas into action!
Until next year, Columbia! 🌱🐓🚜

🌻 Day 1 of the Homestead Festival is in the books!
We learned a lot, met some amazing people, and had some great conversations with fellow homesteaders.
Looking forward to seeing what Day 2 has in store!

So grateful to be at the Homestead Festival this weekend. ❤️

We're learning, connecting, and soaking up ideas that will stay with us long after we head home. What a great community to be a part of.

🐔☁️ 6:00 AM and the girls are perked up and ready!
Cloudy skies didn't slow them down one bit. The coop door opened, and out they came—off to scratch, peck, and start their day. ❤️
Just another beautiful morning on the homestead.

We’re loving how much food we can grow in a small space with container gardening — fresh basil, mint, parsley,dill,lemon balm,cilantro, and sweet strawberries right outside the door. Simple, practical, and beautiful.

What’s growing in your garden right now? 🌿👇
