The Backyard Farming Connection #74

We are right at the transition of winter and mud season here in NH which means that life around the homestead is starting to move a bit faster.  There is sap boiling, half sheared goats are running around the pasture (or hopping over the fence depending on the day), seeds are getting started, and everyday more and more ground appears under the snow.

This week's features:

From Lady Lee's Home: 5 Easiest Cool-Weather Crops

From the (mis)Adventures of a 'Born Again' Farm Girl: How to Catch Wild Yeast

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.
