The Homestead Life!
We really take this homesteading life for granted sometimes! I had a very short walk through my backyard and collected enough food in my basket for a complete meal if I wanted!
I was just planning on harvesting a little kale from our garden... Then I saw chanterelle mushrooms popping out of our lawn! I had to harvest them too! While scurrying through the weeds to get another orange cap, I found a hidden duck nest with two eggs!
Three of our ducks that sneak out of their enclosure every day and wander our yard eating bugs. They are pretty cute and are helping to keep the pest population down so I haven't clipped their wings. These eggs were a nice surprise they left for me!
We had the chanterelle mushrooms in a side with our dinner. We sauteed with fresh squash from our friends garden that we had bartered for our kale and beets, added onions, garlic and more butter. It was so good I could have eaten just that for dinner!
We really are lucky to have so much bounty in our very own backyard! What is in your backyard? Share with us down below!
