About Me

Hi. I’m Sara H-M. This is where I share my sordid tales of trying to grow food and flowers and make all sorts of things on a small lot in the middle of a small, tree filled city in the Mid Atlantic. I am determined, grit-full and grateful for all of the opportunities to learn.

Good golly! I’ve never come close to having as many strawberries 🍓🍓🍓as I have this year! All from our front yard. Simply amazing what rain and sun can do. So glad I had the time and wherewithal to make jam. 😊😂 - - - - - #sograteful #strawberries #strawberryjam #modernhomesteading #urbanhomestead #frontyardgarden

I planted a bunch of seeds in the early spring to grow flowers for the bees. They are still quite tiny(last pic) And all of the bulbs I planted for them have long since bloomed. I’m hoping they 🐝🐝🐝 find some of these 🌸 🌼🌹🌺... - - - - - #beekeeping #urbanhomesteading #urbanbeekeeping #backyardbeekeeping #modernhomestead #sograteful

My honey bees 🐝 finally arrived. Seems like it took forever. And installing them into my hives was no easy feat. But they are now in their new home and exploring. Just in time for World Bee Day (yesterday) 🐝🐝🐝 - - - - - - - #beekeeping #honeybees #urbanhomesteading #beesfeedtheworld #moderndayhomesteading

My meager late January Homestead-made pantry. I’m shooting to double this for next year. I’ve made a goal of producing and eating more food from our homestead in 2019. Read all about it on my blog. - - - - - - #homesteadgoals #eatmorefromthegarden #urbanhomestead #gratitude #growyourownfood #goalsaregreat
