With the elderberry harvest starting next week, we needed to clean out the freezer of last years berries. So we canned a total of 154 cups of elderberry syrup! That’s a lot! Big thanks to our WWOOFers extraordinaire Zoe, Perla, and Sydney for the many hours they spent in the boiling hot kitchen finishing this big project.

Let me know if you want my syrup recipe for canning!

Happy 15 year anniversary to Earthkeeper Farm! It was in the spring of 2008 that we started this farm, building a little greenhouse by a big empty corn field. It's amazing to think of all that has been planted and built since then. Thanks for being part of the adventure!

The calendar says April, but the weather says July.

The greenhouse is filling up! I love this time of year!

I live inside a cloud.

“But mom, where is it’s face?” This is what Isaac asked about the turkey. 😂 Andrew raised, butchered, and cooked this year’s bird. The experience was a little disorienting for Isaac. But if you eat meat, you should know that at some point it did in fact have a face (and hopefully a good life on a local farm). Happy Thanksgiving!
