🌿🍋 Easy Peasy Lemon Squeezey! 🍋🌿

My very first lemon from the Meyer lemon tree my parents gifted me has finally arrived! 🥹✨ If you’re a daily lemon water drinker like me, you know how exciting this moment is. 💛

Not only is it fresh, but it’s also organic—straight from my garden to my glass. 🌱🍹 Here’s to more lemons and a lot more homegrown goodness!

Who else loves lemons?

🌿 Project “Cover the House with Vines” is finally in progress! 🌿

I love wisteria but I know it can be controversial since it’s considered invasive in many areas. But don’t come at me, y’all! I bought this Chinese wisteria plant a few years ago and just now put up the trellis. Back then, I didn’t know there were American non-invasive varieties of wisteria, though I’ve heard they’re harder to find at nurseries. It’s crazy that nurseries even sell invasive plants, but they do. 🤷‍♀️

Don’t worry—if any escapes the garden, our goats will surely devour it. 🐐

I made a trellis for the side of the house. 🏡 🔨

And it only took me like two months to decide on the pattern and then actually make the time to do it! 😅

Oh the joys of living with ADHD.

Then I went to hang it and there was a wasp nest in the wisteria vines that I made the trellis for.

Every year I struggle to keep weeds out of my garden beds. I use mulch but weeds just grow right through it. Does that mean my mulch needs to be a lot thicker? Am I doing it wrong or does everyone struggle with weeds? 🌱

My little lemon tree has baby lemons and also new blooms 🍋 🌳 🌸 And my satsuma tree is so covered in little satsumas it’s crazy, especially since it’s never produced very much in the past. 🍊 🌳 I’m excited for citrus season!

Tonight is August’s second full Moon, a Blue Supermoon. 🌚

When a second Full Moon falls within the same calendar month it is known as a Blue Moon, hence the expression, ‘once in a blue moon’ used to describe a rare event.

This Full Moon is also a “Supermoon.” In fact, it’s the closest Supermoon of 2023. “Supermoon” is a catchy term for what astronomers call “a perigean full Moon” which is when the full Moon happens at or near its closest point to Earth in its oval-shaped orbit.

It’s exceptionally close in Moon miles from Earth (222,043 miles).

This blue supermoon is a time for releasing the past and a chance to detox from any stresses and dramas that have been going on in our lives.

Since it’s bigger and brighter in the sky, the Super Blue Moon is a powerful time to cleanse and charge crystals by the moonlight.

Just a few of the deliciousness were growing. 🌱 Everything has been going to the animals except the jalapeños I’ve been chopping and freezing for later use. I do hope to make at least one pear crisp before summer is over though.

Our Vinca Flowers are blooming! Thanks to for gifting me these transplants from her garden 🌸

Annual vinca (Catharanthus roseus) is a tropical perennial that is grown as an annual in most regions. It has flowers and foliage that resemble impatiens, but rather than being a shade lover, annual vinca is a perfect choice for sunny locations. Also known as Madagascar periwinkle. They are drought tolerant and pest free and come in white and a variety of pinks and lilacs.

Our Story

We are a micro farmstead in Calvary, GA and sanctuary to 60+ animals, run by myself, Autumn Skye, and my two animal loving, tree-hugging, home-schooled kids, Gavin (16) and Summer (12). The three of us share in the responsibility of caring for the animals, garden, and honeybees.

Our eclectic menagerie of rescue animals currently includes 8 pot bellied pigs, 30+ chickens, 3 ducks, 2 bunnies and 5 goats. We are home to 11 rescue cats who come and go from the house and barn as they please. We also have 5 dogs, a family of rainbow finches that we took in years ago, 1 mud turtle we took in, 1 gecko, 1 bearded dragon, a yellow bellied slider turtle that we saved and 4 fish that needed a new home, 2 of which bred; and we now have about 85 convict cichlids who need homes. And last but not least, Papaya the Parrot, a Catalina Macaw who rules the roost, literally. All of our animals are treated as family, get lots of free range of our 10 acre field, come into the house often, are vaccinated and wormed regularly, get fresh fruits and veggies and always lots of LOVE.

We believe wholeheartedly in spaying and neutering; every single animal on our farm is fixed or will soon be fixed with the exception of the chickens, ducks, finches, parrot, fish and turtle. I assure you we'd have them fixed too if we could...especially the roosters and our very fertile fish LOL. We DO NOT use our animals for profit and every animal that comes here has a forever home or is adopted out to an approved forever home. Since 2015, we have found loving homes for 8 other rescue piggies and 5 rescue kittens.
