Welcome to the Homestead Blog Hop!
Good rainy morning to everyone! We are supposed to hit 81 today, so it now feels like we are jumping into Spring/Summer/whatever! But wait a minute and it’ll ago back to Winter temps again.
I can hear lots of Spring Peepers! They are a sure sign of warmer days!
But the best part about Spring is the wildflowers! Im homebound today, so I will avail myself of the opportunity for a walk in the woods.
Wild Edible & Wildflower Walk. Seven Islands State Birding Park
I hope you can get outside a bit today and explore something–even if it’s your own backyard!
Here’s a tiny video featuring the tiny Spring Peepers! 🐸
I’m so glad you could join us for the homestead blog hop. We always have such great contributors with ideas and tips that are practical and frugal. I love it! Scroll down and check it out.
Now on to the Hop
Homestead Blog Hop will take place every Wednesday and is for all things homesteading: real food recipes, farm animals, crafts, DIY, how-to’s, gardening, anything from-scratch, natural home/health, self-sufficiency, self-reliance, natural remedies, essential oils, & more! Basically anything related to homesteading.

Happy Easter dear Laurie – thanks for hosting !:-)
I love this time of year when all the wild flowers are blooming. We love taking Lia on hikes to show her the different flowers. We even plant wild flowers in an old wheelbarrow and watch them attracted the hummingbirds and butterflies! Beautiful hike through your video!
Thank you! That sounds really neat, and just to be clear, I didn’t make the video!
Happy Easter!!
