The Backyard Farming Connection Hop #41

This week the first green tomatoes popped out and the first cucumbers appeared.  As excited as we are here with our home, garden and animals, there is a lot happening in our personal lives: big moves, big changes.  In just over a month we will be uprooting our little homesteading and moving it 4 hours away.  I can't wait to share more with you over the coming months, but for now we are fully immersed in planning how exactly to move all these wonderful living things in our lives.

This week I am happy to feature two relatively new-to-me pages.  These are both great pages and I suggest you head over and poke around a bit.

From City Boy Hens, Canning Blueberry Jam

From Homestead Living, a recipe for Strawberry/Rhubarb preserves

I want to know what's happening, in your garden, on your homestead, in the barnyard, and in the kitchen.  Whatever is in your backyard farm and home, I would love to hear about it.

Each week I will share some of my favorite posts on the Backyard Farming Connection Facebook page.  And in case you haven't seen, I have a 'featured button' so if you've been featured in the past, grab a button.
