Homesteading it in October!

I am doing an organic CSA this year called Honey Brook Organic Farm.  I get a LOT of produce, a big box every week since late spring.  And sometimes we go picking at the farm to get even more produce.  I need to do a lot of things with that produce to use it up or store it.  

So, all throughout October, we are going to be homesteading it, vegan cowgirl style!

We'll explore some elements of both modern and traditional homesteading as it relates to food: cooking, preserving, storing, making do, and keeping waste to a minimum.  We will look at various ways of putting up food for those long, winter months as well as some nice ways to use the vegetable and fruit bounty that is typical of early fall for more immediate consumption.   Tips, tricks, old and new recipes will likely make their way onto the homestead.

Put on your (vegan) cowgirl hat and join me!

P.S. You'd be wise to get yourself a medium sized pumpkin if you know what's good for ya'.
