If You Have A Seed…

February 18, 2018 By Deidra

If you have seeds…

One of many hot topics last week was the announcement of the proposed changes coming to many of those getting assistance from the government for food. Politics is a touchy subject, and I try to stay out of that talk as much as humanly possible because, well, my point of views are never really popular with those on either side of the aisle. So, this won’t be a political post for or against the idea, but more of what we as a society can do no matter what happens. [Read more…] about If You Have A Seed…

Black People Homestead?

February 15, 2018 By Deidra

black farmerOf course!! Why wouldn’t we? For years here in America, good ole’ U.S. of A, my ancestors worked the land. I’m not going to go deep into the torrid history of our ancestors’ enslavement in all of the Americas, but I will point out that the act of homesteading is not a new thing to us.

Unfortunately, when one thinks of homesteading what may come to mind is covered wagons, “Little House On The Prairie”, “Ma and Pa Kettle” – pretty much that homesteading is a “white” thing. But it’s not. [Read more…] about Black People Homestead?

Almond milk
Have you seen the price of Almond milk lately? YIKES! That stuff is expensive. What if you could make it cheaper and with only two main ingredients instead of all that stuff listed on the bottle to help it have a long shelf life? Guess what? You can. All you need are a few appliances you may already have, some almonds (if you can buy them in bulk at your big box, whole sale, bulk buy, or warehouse club store you can get the cost down even lower!), water, and flavoring [Read more…] about Homemade Almond Milk

Decisions, Decisions….

February 2, 2018 By Deidra

Two Paths in Field

Hey y’all! Deidra here. So, I wanted to share with you all a little of our journey.

We used to own our own home a few years back. Unfortunately, Antoine was caught up in the technology bubble bust and was laid off. While he had some time at home, he decided to build our first garden. We had two young children and a dog and we knew we had mouths to feed.

He was really good at it. He grew okra, tomatoes, cantaloupe, watermelon, strawberries, peppers….anything that could fit in our square foot garden. I think that’s when the bug really bit him. From that point on, no matter where we landed we tried to grow something. [Read more…] about Decisions, Decisions….
