Spring is Sprouting in Floyd County Virginia
Spring is fastly approaching. This evening after watering my peas (yes, they are up about an inch now!) I went for a walk around my property starting at the creek and noticed the skunk cabbage is about 3-4 inches out of the ground already. A little further I saw a bunch of new greenbriar growth, some of my fruit trees budding out and, of course, a bunch of crocuses and daffodils. Near dark I also heard a ton of spring peepers, then I went down to where my Shittake logs are, not expecting anything this early but excited for what is to come!
First campfire of the season
It was such a nice evening that I was inspired to build a small campfire; just something to continue to ignite the spring sprouting in and around me. What a wonderful way to spend a Wednesday evening.

Hi Tommy. I bet it was nice to see Spring coming. It is coming here as well. It is nice you enjoy the simplier things God provides us.
Yeah, I constantly work on slowing down enough to really see and feel the beauty around me. It’s sad when I get in a hurry, or stuck in my head/thoughts and miss out on the miraclous life abounding everywhere outside of me.
Hello!
This may seem a bit silly but I was wondering where the e-mail addresses are? I’ve been reading articles from the website for quite some time, but I haven’t seen many articles regarding urban homesteading. I’m trying to see if there is still a need for an urban homesteading blogger as I think I would be a good fit for it. If someone could please contact me, I would love to talk to someone and see if there is still a need.
