Moondoe's Homestead Adventures

🍅🫛🧅 One bed. Three crops. Countless lessons.

The tomatoes are ripening... The peas won't stop climbing... The onions are coming along nicely...

Every time we step into the garden, there's something new to appreciate.

It's not perfect, but it's ours—and it's growing stronger every day. 🌱

🫛 THE PEAS ARE PEAIN'!! 😂🌱
These things are growing like crazy!
It feels like every time we walk into the garden they've climbed a little higher.
Watching something go from a tiny seed to a thriving plant never gets old. That's one of the best parts of gardening—you get to witness the progress every single day.
Now we're just waiting for these vines to start loading up with fresh peas!
We'll keep you updated as they grow. 🌿
How are your peas doing this season?

🍅 IT'S HAPPENING!

We've officially got tomatoes starting to ripen! 🌿
One gardening tip that's worked really well for us...

I usually harvest my tomatoes when they reach the breaker stage—when they're about halfway from green to red.

At that point, they'll continue ripening indoors, which helps reduce the chances of pests, birds, cracking, or disease getting to them before I do.

Plus... it means we get to enjoy our first homegrown tomatoes just a little sooner. 😄
It's amazing seeing all the work finally paying off.

How do you harvest your tomatoes? Do you wait until they're fully vine-ripened or pick them at the breaker stage?

🥔🌱 THIS POTATO PLANT IS GROWING LIKE CRAZY!

It feels like we just showed y’all the first little sprout, and now it’s already spreading out and putting on a ton of new growth.

We’ve added another layer of compost around the plant to keep feeding it and continue building up the potato tower as it grows.

Now the big experiment really starts:

Can we turn this one small space into pounds of homegrown potatoes?

We’ll keep documenting every stage all the way through harvest, so make sure you’re following along. This little plant has places to be apparently. 😂🥔

Not every day on the homestead is an easy one.
One of our new pullets took a pretty rough beating during flock integration.

I cleaned the wound, got her separated somewhere quiet and safe, and now we'll keep a close eye on her while she heals.

Sometimes chickens remind you that the pecking order isn't just a saying... it can get rough.

At this point, we're seriously considering culling our bully hen. Our job is to protect the entire flock, not let one bird constantly stress or injure the others.

It's never a fun decision, but that's part of raising animals responsibly.

Life on the homestead isn't always picture-perfect... but we'll always show you the good, the bad, and everything in between.

Have you ever had to deal with a bully hen? What ended up working for you?

🌿 Fresh parsley straight from the garden.

Morning harvests like this never get old.

Now I'm thinking... maybe it's time to make another batch of homemade seasoning powder. 👀

We've already had some success with parsley, and now we're ready to experiment with a few new blends.

👇 Help us decide!

What's going in the grinder next?

We’re starting something new 🌱

I’ve been wanting to build more useful resources for people trying to grow food, get organized, and take small steps toward a more self-sufficient life.

So we made our first free download:

The FREE Homestead Garden Planner.

It includes:

🌱 Garden planning pages
🌱 Seed inventory tracker
🌱 Seed starting tracker
🌱 Garden layout grids
🌱 Harvest tracking
🌱 Expense tracking
🌱 Garden savings calculator

Nothing complicated. Just a simple printable tool to help you plan better, track what you’re growing, and actually see the progress you’re making.

This is just the beginning too. We’ve got more garden resources, guides, build plans, and homestead tools coming down the road.

If you want the free planner and want to be first in line for what we start releasing next, sign up here:

🥔 Growing more food in less space.

That's the goal.

We just finished building our DIY potato tower and we're excited to see how it performs.

One thing we've learned on this journey is that you don't need a huge homestead to start producing food. Sometimes all it takes is a little creativity and a willingness to try something new.

Now let's see if we can turn this tower into a pile of homegrown potatoes. 👀🥔

🌿 Our parsley has officially gone crazy. 😂

I think it's about time to fire up the dehydrator and make another batch of homemade seasoning powder.

There's something special about planting a seed, watching it grow, harvesting it, drying it, grinding it, and then putting it on your dinner plate.

Now the important question...

What should we mix with the parsley next? 👀

🧅 Onion 🧄 Garlic 🌿 Oregano 🌶️ Peppers

Or something completely different?
