Maple Grove Farm

From the Farm Today

Our day is somewhat relaxed around here.  We had breakfast and then I quilted while the girls knitted for about an hour.  Then we went out and planted some more in the garden.  I am spending a few moments recording what we planted and where it is.  The bread is baking for lunch and as soon as it is finished we'll eat.

So far we have planted - potatoes, peas, garlic, broccoli, cauliflower, cabbage, spinach, bok choi, onions, lettuce, beets, and carrots.  I am concerned that we won't have enough room for everything.  It seems like there is always more to plant and I am not always sure where to put it.

After lunch the girls and I will make some soap, finish up the laundry, work on dinner, and clean the house.  Tonight I am hoping to go to a friend's house to visit with some ladies.  Tomorrow we have baking and cooking to do.  We also need to organize some of our food stores.

Happy homesteading. . .

wow! i would love that quiet & productive of a day. what do you do with the little ones and boys while you are doing these things? i can't seem to get my troops organized well enough to not need constant supervision. they don't self regulate or entertain well.LOL if I get one bunch doing an activity some of the others sneek away. short attention spans. hope your week end is productive.
blessings,
