Inflation and Gardening
Inflation is on the rise with nobody in power willing to do what is necessary to stop it and reverse it. We have not had sound money since 1913, and have been on a very predictable decline every since. So what can we do about it? We can do some gardening. Every little bit helps. During WWII we had Victory Gardens. Nearly 80 years later we find ourselves needing to grow our Survival Gardens. Every tomato, carrot, tomato you can grow is one somebody else doesn't need to grow for you. Every pound of food you can put back is one pound you don't need to worry about having to feed yourself or your children. Even this late in the year, start growing something, and don't stop. Get you some seeds. If not from us, get them from someone. You can get amazing seeds and collections at

Turnip Harvest
Turnips are a very under rated root and green. I have always loved eating turnips and turnip greens. Something about them just feels like home. These are a great food to grow, and very easy. Now we didn't get the greens out of these turnips due to neglect and the bugs, but we got over 20 pounds of long lasting, tasty roots. The health benefits of this plant are numerous. From an online nutritional website "Turnips are a cruciferous vegetable with multiple health benefits. They boast an impressive nutritional profile, and their bioactive compounds, such as glucosinolates, may support blood sugar control, protect against harmful bacteria, and provide anticancer and anti-inflammatory effects." For something so easy to grow and that last for months in a cellar, you cannot go wrong with this plant.

Peas, all legumes, are great tasting, good for you, but also great for your soil. In this video I show you one of the great reason you should grow peas and beans throughout different areas of your garden, switching it around each year.

Tomato Roots
Here I am showing how Tomato Plants can develop roots up the vine, anywhere it touches soil. A benefit of this is to understand you can create a larger root system that produces a larger plant with more fruit.

JJ is especially grateful as this will introduce him to many young boys and girls his age, with the same health issue so he can see he is not alone in this struggle, as well as learn even more about his disease and how to live the best life he can with it.
From the bottom of our hearts, thank you.

Introducing New Ducks to the Flock
Here at My Homestead Education, we love our Muscovy Ducks, and we got 3 new beautiful ducks to introduce to our breeding stock. We brought in one new Drake and 2 new Hens.
As with many animals such as chickens, there is a pecking order that must be established. As you can see here, it seems tuff, and it is for the new guys, but in the end, they all get along just fine.

Garlic Harvest from $2 worth of Grocery Store Garlic
This was our first time harvesting garlic. I should point out, we planted late and did not really know what we were doing. You should plant garlic out in the fall/early winter. We did not, but still wanted garlic, so here it is.
When you aren't sure what to do, just do it and learn as you go. I of course try to learn what I need to do, but last fall, I wasn't thinking about this summer. So this spring, when I was thinking about growing garlic, I found out I was several months behind, but I still got some garlic. Not any show stoppers, but I took a few whole heads of garlic for a couple of bucks, and grew 5-10 times that.
Check us out at www.clearwatervalleyfarms.com, We have awesome elderberry syrup kits and garden seeds available now.
