So the month of September has gone by fast, and I feel awful that I have not updated in a while. So here is going to be the mad dash catch up. Are you ready? I know I'm not...
We have been to Davenport Fruit Orchard to help harvest. We went to the homesteading festival at Little Bit of Heaven Farm. Some even went to the Mother Earth News Festival. We planted fall crops. We are amazed at how big our pumpkins are. We hosted salsa making on campus with Eric from Beelzebub Salsas. We are planning apple sauce canning, indoor plant growing, raw foods, wild foods, and slow foods workshops.
We are living, cooking, and shopping in local ways. Take a peek...
And speaking of cooking, we have made all of the following:
Cinnamon Buns
Chocolate Muffins

AND SO MUCH MORE!
And it was all made with local veggies, or meat, or something! The best thing is that our housemate, CC brings items from her CSA from back home, so now we even have locally made butter!!
We are even ordering organic flour in bulk from our local Market House, and tomorrow we get to pick up 25lbs! (I don't think it will last us long!)
Things coming up in our area-
Apple Festival
Pumpkin Festival
Haunted Houses
Haunted Corn mazes
I promise to update better this October!
