Mary, Mary quite contrary how does your garden grow?
So how are our gardens doing? I am going to post some survival garden videos and start going over what my top survival crops are. I thought I should then ask what are your top 3 crops to grow to get you through winter? Mine are Squash, potatoes, and tomatoes as they make up a majority of what I preserve.

Where have I been
Hi everyone, we have a tone of new comers here and I've been absent. I want you all to know that I will be returning this week, I've been really busy with some big markest I did and working off the farm. I'm taking this entire next week off so I can focus on the farm and my social media. Please if you haven't introduce yourselves and your new please do, feel free to share where your at in the journey and please ask any questions or voice any concerns you'd have in the questions section as I will be looking there daily. I have actually turned on notifications for this app, I try not to do that, so I don't forget about it.

Pumpkin Mac &Cheese
This is one of those cozy meals that feels fancy… but is actually simple to make and perfect for using up pantry + garden ingredients. Ingredients: • 2 tbsp oil • 1/2 large sweet onion (diced) • 1/4 cup flour • 1 tsp onion powder • 1 tsp garlic powder • 1 tsp paprika • 1/2 tsp salt • Pepper to taste • 1–2 tsp Dijon mustard • 2 cups stock (I use chicken) • 2 cups milk or heavy cream • 1 cup pumpkin puree • 1 cup shredded cheddar cheese • 1/2 cup havarti • 2 tbsp cream cheese Topping: • 6 slices havarti • 1 cup panko breadcrumbs • 1/2 cup parmesan cheese • 2 tbsp melted butter Directions: 1. Cook pasta in salted water and set aside. 2. In a large pan, heat oil and sauté diced onion until soft. 3. Stir in flour and cook for 1–2 minutes to form a roux. 4. Add spices, Dijon, and slowly whisk in stock and milk. 5. Stir in pumpkin puree and let it thicken. 6. Add cheddar, havarti, and cream cheese—mix until smooth. 7. Combine sauce with cooked pasta and transfer to a baking dish. 8. Top with havarti slices. 9. Mix breadcrumbs, parmesan, and melted butter—sprinkle on top. 10. Bake at 375°F until bubbly and golden. Real food. Simple ingredients. This is the kind of meal that fills your pantry *and* your table. Would you try pumpkin in your mac & cheese… or is that a hard no?

@Rodney Thompson Outdoor Skills It really is so good, pumpkin dosen't really have that strong a flavor. It good savory or sweet. Get her to try it you'll love it.

Busy, busy, busy
Hi everyone, I want to let everyone know I've been so busy the last little while. I've been trying to post on here and keep forgetting. I don't knownof anyone has been keeping up with the egg incubation we've been doing? They have hatched and a video for that will be out soon. I am still working on a sourdough masterclass which will eventually be up in the class room. We have a tone of new comers to the community, I will try to organize everyone and give them a welcome soon. How is everyone doing, getting the gardens in? Leave us a comment and show pictures we love seeing them.

@Penny M I still haven't even planted anything in the ground. I haven't had time, I do need to get some peas and potatoes in probably some carrots too.
Lock Down Day
Time to lock down the incubator and increase the humidity. I'll make up a break down for any one wanting to incubate some eggs and wanting a quick guide to follow.
