A really (s)crap wood table - a first for us!
A few months ago I posted about a scrap wood table we were hoping to make. More back story in my post! Just to add a few details. All the wood you can get here is really scrap but without the S. I see

It's been a very long time since I posted any of our hand made paper projects! Really it's not on purpose and not because we lack projects. On the contrary, we've had so many orders and projects especially

Well, our holiday quickly transformed into a pile of orders and things to catch up with at day work and in our handmade paper business. That's all good, but with the added pressure of canning and freezing

Picking green beans!
So we started teaching the kids how to pick green beans! It's been a great success! They still lack the patience to pick a whole bed of beans but make it into a game, to discover where the pods are and

The tomato keeper!
Just a quick post to share a funny photo :) One of the yard cats napping in the cool of the moist soil and tomato shade. Kids said it's guarding the tomatoes so nobody pick them before they're ready 😂
