Garden updates
Sorry ya’ll… I’ve been a little MIA her lately as we’ve been busy with our gardens and greenhouse.
We’ve put a lot of plants in the ground and made a few changes around the gardens. We’ve also added a few new planting areas.
I’ll post a few picture below but we do have a couple of slideshows up on our YouTube channel as well.

Essential Tips for Emergency Preparedness
Howdy folks!
How have you been? It’s been busy here, as usual, and I’m writing this post a few months before it will actually publish so in real life I’ve just planted my winter garden. I’m pretty excited as this as I haven’t actually done this before but I am looking forward to having fresh veggies in the next month or two!
I love to garden so for me I don’t see this as part of a ‘prepper’ thing but for many people learning to garden is part of their emergency preparations. I am always looking for new suggestions on ways to better prepare our family for emergencies. We recently had two really bad hurricanes (Helene and Milton) that caused a lot of devastation in widespread areas.
Fortunately, we were not severely affected by either one but it did show us some ‘weak’ areas that we needed to fix. After Hurricane Debby (before Helene) we lost a freezer which made us realize that frozen foods would not be a very sustainable option in a long-term emergency.
While we aren’t supposed to live in fear I do feel that the Bible tells us to be prepared. Joseph helped Egypt prepare for the famine that was to come and helped save a lot of people.

Passover/Pesach:
Usually happens near Easter, but it is not the same as Easter! Passover is the day set aside to celebrate the freeing of the Jews from Egyptian rule around 3000 years ago. The first Passover meal happened on the night of the 10th plague, so we usually talk about the story of the Plagues.
Passover was also the time when Jesus was crucified, so we are recognizing the sacrifices that Jesus made for us when HE died on the cross.

Feast of the Unleavened Bread:
This spans the 7-day period following the Passover. It is done in remembrance of when the Israelites made their hasty departure from Egypt. They left in such a hurry that they didn’t have time to let their bread rise.

Pentecost/Shavuot:
This Feast usually happens 50 days after Passover… the name of Pentecost. This Feast foreshadows the coming of the Messiah, and that we can be one part of his harvest when he returns.
