Barn Hop #51

Welcome to the 51st Homestead Barn Hop, where we link up our homesteading posts to cultivate the homesteading community! So glad you are here this Monday morning!

Last week there were some amazing blogs to visit. No way we can all get to every one of them, but I did get to visit a few. I learned to make lacto fermented mustard for one thing! It smells good, but now I need to give it a try! I'll be making a dressing recipe today with my mustard to test it out. There were also some great tips on not wasting real food... loved that one. And so many more!

I want to give you an update on Kendra's blog, New Life on a Homestead. After nearly two weeks of trying to work through the issue of being hacked, it was finally determined that she is going to have to switch hosts. It still may take some time (and money!), but I will try to keep you updated. Also, Kendra is staying active via facebook and you can follow her there. She's posting some great info despite being so busy trying to solve this horrible issue! Thank you to all of you who have supported her during this time.

I'll be announcing the winner of the three eBooks by Naomi Dathan later today (Lord willing!). Also, it's not too late to link up to Saturday's monthly Preparedness Challenge and get in the drawing from USA Emergency Supply. That give-away ends Friday.
Hopefully, I'll get some posts up this week on goat stuff. I'm swimming in milk and thoughts on the subject! So what's happening at your homestead this week?

Join The Barn Hop!

...invite you to link up and share your homesteading adventures!

1. Write a blog post about what's going on at your homestead or a post on something you're learning or an item of interest that will benefit the homesteading community. Be sure to add the red barn button and link back here so others can join in the fun.

2. Come back here and enter your information in the Linky. Please be sure to link to your actual post (click your title and then copy the URL above) and not your home page so those participating later in the week can find your post easily.
