I know, I know. I’ve linked to Erica’s Northwest Edible Life blog quite a few times. And I’ve linked specifically to her Don’t be an Urban Homesteader Asshole post more than once. What can I say? It’s an awesome post and sooooo needed to be said. While her post deals with those in our community…
Here’s another great photo from photographer Heather Hoxsey. You can see more of her incredible photos on Flickr and buy some of her work on Etsy. I’ll be posting more of her photos in future Tuesday Photo features. So stay tuned!
This week we’ve got a post I’m really excited about! Brad from Highly Uncivilized is sharing a post about how to build an at-home atmospheric water generator. How cool is that?! This is Part 2 of his experiment. You can read about Part 1 here. —————————————————– Several weeks ago I started a series about our…
I never thought I’d say I was an accomplished bread maker. Baking good bread requires patience, skill, and an adherence to recipes that I have (sadly) never possessed. So I am as surprised as anyone to announce that I think I have finally mastered bread making. Well, that might still be a bit of an…
I get asked a lot about what to plant when. So, I’ve decided that Fridays I’ll share what I plan on planting, harvesting, transplanting, and pruning the coming weekend.

Squeek, the super mutt is OK! She doesn’t have cancer. She doesn’t even have a tumor. Turns out it’s just inflammation. The vet said it’s from an insect bite or spider bite but not from a bee sting. Maybe she took on a yellow jacket? No idea. But she’s OK and that’s the best thing…

Today is another action day to reclaim urban homesteading. But instead of blog posts urban homesteaders are creating YouTube videos. As more people post them, I will add them to this post. So stay tuned throughout the day to see more videos. And please go leave these awesome homesteaders some love on their YouTube videos!
Controversy! Intrigue! Catfights! Who knew that a simple question like “what recipe should I post on my blog this week?” would elicit such strong responses? OK, I’m totally exaggerating. There were no catfights, nor was there really much intrigue. There was, however, controversy. Which is totally cool. It’s nice to know that people out there…
Deanna, over at The Crunchy Chicken, directed my attention to this article. It’s actually pretty funny she posted about it today because just last night we watched The Road, which was ruined by the whinny kid, in my humble opinion. I’ve written about being prepared on our other blog, and I won’t repeat what I…
