The Backyard Farming Connection Hop #66

With the groundhog making his (her?) appearance this week and not seeing a shadow, we've announced that spring is here.  HAH!  Despite knowing that the winter is still hanging around for a while, we're already getting ready for the spring and getting out maple tapping equipment ready.

This week's features:

From City Boy Hens, How to Make a Bee Hive

From Homespun Seasonal Living, Home Sugaring Preparation

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.
