Seasonal meals to hopefully inspire you: Roasted

Seasonal meals to hopefully inspire you:

Roasted pumpkin soup with maple syrup, sage and a few other simple ingredients. Blended with cream cheese--which is a game changer. I absolutely love this soup.

Pumpkin skyr yogurt parfait. Leftover pumpkin mixed with yogurt, maple syrup, PB and cinnamon layered in between wild blackberries and granola.

Over easy eggs nestled in rutabaga and beet hash. I'm so incredibly grateful for my small flock of layers.

My dad and I share a love for pickled beets. Very simple recipe:

2 cups beets, boiled, peeled, sliced
1/2 cup each, white vinegar, sugar, water
1 tsp salt.
Get the brine boiling, pour over beets, let cool and refrigerate.

Hope wherever you are, you enjoy the fall season.

..Frosty September morning. Haven't taken many photos of the garden because I'm liking the phone free life these days, but here is a teeny tiny look into my garden. Pulled all frost sensitive veg. Kale, lettuce, rutabagas, arugula, spinach and carrots are loving life.

.. Sourdough pickup begins soon at Plant Garden Center. All organic ingredients, made from scratch, baked fresh by me!

.. Harvest moon this past week was magical.

The "ear" on sourdough bread is the ridge in the center that springs up. It is where I scored the dough. I love the look of it and it usually indicates an awesome loaf of bread!

Working out the logistics of it all but things are

Working out the logistics of it all but things are happening! My sourdough will now be a part of Sunset Hollow's delicious menu. Find them on Main Street in downtown Merrill.

Also, I will be offering sourdough pickup sites around Merrill in the near future. What does this mean? I will be taking orders!

Curious if anyone has any opinions on the use of Facebook for business. Is it necessary? Maybe even a separate Instagram?? I want to organically reach customers and get bread into everyone's belly!

My tried and true country sourdough loaf will be the first bread offered: Made with a beautiful starter I have lovingly fed organic flour for years (she smells like wine & flowers!). Organic flour (bread flour, rye flour and semolina) and Redmond's Real Salt. I have the full recipe and process on my blog if you'd like to know more.

If you would be interested in ordering sourdough from me don't hesitate to reach out!

Greek inspired salad with NO tomatoes or cucumbers

Greek inspired salad with NO tomatoes or cucumbers. They just aren't ripe yet! But the lettuce is popping and the dill is gorgeous sooo feta dill salad it is!

Dressing: Dill, lemon, Zaatar, garlic, Dijon, honey, salt pepper and olive oil

Salad: chickpeas, kalamata olives, peperonchinis, green pepper, onion, feta, more dill. I love to mix the dressing with these ingredients, let it sit in the fridge a bit then mix it up with lettuce. This variety of lettuce is on my grow again list for sure. @botanical interest

Marigolds and honeywort seeds were kindly shared with me from seed savers here in the Midwest and I'll be saving and passing these seeds on to others.

Goldenrod grows wild, it's frilly tops just starting to turn a mustard yellow. I'll be saving some for the first time this year for tea.

Had to show off the vibrant purple stripes that only deepened since I hung my garlic to cure.

Couldn't fit the entire picture but 😍

Pictured is Rosewood garlic, you bet I'm saving seed for this one!

Favorite garlic variety for this year: Rosewood

Favorite garlic variety for this year: Rosewood

Zone 4b garden, heavy soil, rainy season, Rosewood did exceptionally well. Red Chesnok is the runner up.

Beautiful bulbs, painted in stripes of purple, are hung in bundles of 5 or 6 in my drafty walk-out basement.

What's your favorite garlic variety to grow?

Throw a chunk of cream cheese in oatmeal and thank me later 😋

Pictured are strawberry oats simmered in oat milk with cream cheese, peanut butter, maple syrup, vanilla extract and cinnamon. Topped with fresh berries, walnuts and more PB.

I have a few sad looking strawberry plants growing who obviously don't like torrential downpours. With that said, I bought these at a roadside stand and I'm super grateful! I have my mind set on a larger strawberry patch in the future, how many plants did you plant to feed your family?

1)A fishing boat is my work in progress. I'll slow

1)A fishing boat is my work in progress. I'll slowly make it into a planter and surround it with deer resistant, pollinator friendly plants. So far I have:
Purple Profusion Salvia
Lavender Bubbles Allium (not blooming yet(
Magic Carpet Spirea
Chives, hardy geraniums and day lilies were already present.
Herbs are interplanted.

This planter will be in between my apple and plum trees, hopefully bringing them all the bees!!

2) Chickens have really added some fun to our life!
3) Common milkweed is growing all over, yay!!

Garlic scapes are ready for harvest, which is real

Garlic scapes are ready for harvest, which is really a relief considering the poor little bulbs have been pummeled with more water than I imagined they would. They are on track for an early July harvest which is great!

Red sails lettuce is on my grow again list. Nearly no pest damage. Rabbits don't go for it. It's crunchy and great for the base of a salad.

Last, we have a fresh, mint garlic scape dressing. Truly delicious!

4 charred garlic scapes
2 tbsp each sour cream and red wine vinegar
1/4 cup each parsley and mint
4oz feta
1 heaping tsp honey
1 tbsp pepperchinis
1 tbsp pepperchini brine
Salt & pepper
Oil just until it comes together
Blend Blend Blend!

When you're up to your ears in zucchini and summer

First spring on our new property means discovering

First spring on our new property means discovering new plants.

Up first, red elderberry. From what I've read, it can be turned into jam and jelly. Something I noticed is that ghants congregate around it almost like a cloud. Anyone else notice that?

Next, a beautiful service berry. Multiple stems (or is it trunks?) at the base. Spring blooms are white and berries will form in the summer. Anyone try them before? How do you describe the taste?

Last, raspberries and stinging nettle are everywhere! I'm soaking some roots in alcohol for a tincture and I'm drying leaves nearly everyday for tea. Stinging nettle tea has a sweetness, similar to honey. Nettle pesto was also delicious!
