10.15.18 // hanging rock part two : view from inside tory's den ✨ me climbing up moore's knob to witness sunset on top the fire tower ✨ tory's falls a few days after the heavy rain from hurricane Michael
10.13.18 // we spent last night camping at our fav nc state park last night: Hanging Rock State Park 🌝 Hanging Rock is the reason we decided to move to Stokes County. This amazing park is only 20 minutes from our house! This was our first time camping at HR, so walked around the campground and stoked out future campsites to camp at. After, we hiked up to Moore's Knob for sunset, part of our hike back down the mountain was in the dark (including crossing a stream in the dark)! Richard built us a campfire & made dinner. Today we checked out Tory's Fall & Den. The best part about Hanging Rock is.. NO CELL PHONE SERVICE 🌝 it was the perfect retreat I needed ✨
10.8.18 // is there anything more blissful than enjoying a juicy snap pea on a early fall afternoon? 2 • maybe the only other thing is eating some tomatoes fresh from the vine, this volunteer is my fav variety of the year 3 • pineapple sage flowers are stunning 4 • strawberry bed is filling in. wishful for a big harvest next year. 5 • Venus fly traps have settled into the greenhouse well. 6 • our roses haven't stopped flowering all summer. so happy to share their beauty 🌹 7 • luffa squash bigger than my torso 8 • scarlet runner beans are really setting beans now. apparently this time of year is their happy time. 9 • can't think of anywhere I'd rather be than in my garden witnessing this one minute long down pour with the sun just so, there is nothing that competes with my connection and love for this land. My heart is very full in this moment and I feel total bliss.
10.6.18 // another weekend away from home, cat sitting in the city. It's hard to be away from the garden, to say the least. Thankfully my thoughtful husband sends me photos while I'm away @homesteadstrong is the best 😘 today he sighted our first baby pitcher on our pitcher plant! I'm swooning right now. My carnivorous plant obsession grows by the day! #carnivorousplants
10.4.18 // 🌿 herbs in my garden, part one 🌿 1 • catnip, for my kitty & for tea 2 • thyme, don't use it much beside to put on homemade pizza 3 • sheep sorrel, a plant native to my garden and my fav variety of sorrel for eating 4 • cilantro & green sorrel, all the cilantro in my garden is self seeded from my first planting last spring. It's my most fav herb. Green sorrel grew all summer in my garden and provided us with lots of greens for smoothies 5 • holy basil is one of the four varieties of basil I grew this year. I also grew sweet genovese, thai, and dark opal. 6 • lemon balm, also for tea. 7 • red clover that is native to my garden, mostly for the bees, but also for teas or edible greens 8 • bee balm & sage 9 • anise hyssop & pineapple sage for its edible flowers and leaves 10 • rosemary because it smells so delightful after a rain and for culinary purposes. I really love it in our homebrew Kombucha! 🌿 what herbs do you grow in your garden? 🌿
10.3.18 // my fav carnivore is doing very well in our greenhouse and seems to be putting on top growth! I need to do some research on propagation! 2 • our latest tree purchase was this dwarf banana who came with baby trees in the pot. Not quite sure what to do with her. We're zone 7a if anyone has any suggestions vs. plant it in the ground/unheated greenhouse/pot in a container and bring it inside for winter? 3 • my aloe is a little too happy! 4 • I'm so obsessed with my burdock plants, they are loving the cooler fall weather and I think they are the most gorgeous plants! 5 • the bees are still loving the Jerusalem artichoke flowers and I'm glad this plant offers early fall flowers for them! Hoping I like the taste of the roots! 6 & 7 • beautiful spiders I spotted in my garden 8 • my muscadine vine has steady new growth - I'm so ecstatic! 9 • elephant ear is getting huge!! Roses flowered all spring, summer and now through early fall! 10 • my best go at scarlet runners so far, looks like I'll get some seeds to save! (I only got 3 seeds last year!)
