Ok, posting to multiple platforms got the best of me but I remembered blue sky exists and it's awesome here. Here's the homegrown luffa soaps I made with my homegrown luffa sponges this Christmas! I still have some on the vine which is insane but it's TX so there's no rules. #handmade

I grew my own saffron this season! I actually use saffron to improve my mood and ADHD symptoms so I figured I might as well start growing it! #growyourownfood #garden #gardening #saffron #adhd

80+ cloves of garlic saved from the heads I grew last year. We are finally at a point where we no longer have to buy garlic from the store. Checking another thing off the list of foods we can produce on our own in our suburban backyard! #suburbanhomestead #garden #texasgarden #gardening #garlic

Seeing rampant orthorexia amongst the crunchy community has been the most difficult thing to navigate. I am a gardener and care about the quality of my food and my family's food. But I spent too many years worrying about what we can't have. The mindset of what we CAN have is the way to go. #crunchy

My daughter's teacher tried to fail her because she chose this subject. It was insane. That's Texas for you though.

I've been teaching more local classes lately and it's been so refreshing getting to be around humans in person. Humans that are hungry for knowledge and passionate about similar hobbies!
After doing content creation for 2 yrs I tend to isolate myself too much so this has been good for me. #garden

The passionvine is literally taking over and producing loads of flowers! Did you know passionvine is REALLY good at calming the nervous system? Like don't make any plans after consuming this stuff if you have a concentrated amount. I use it as a tongue spray at night and sleep like a baby #herbalism

This summer I COMPLETELY gutted my backyard garden to start over. I designed a full poteger garden layout and cottage garden area. My goal? To enjoy being in every area of my garden throughout the day, produce as much food as possible but also enjoy my cut flower garden, herbs and vibes. #gardening

We have been raising quail for a few months now. They are the pharaoh type and it's been really fun!

This is what the fall garden looks like so far here in Texas just northwest of Austin. Still have some sweet potatoes hanging on, lots of my kale and broccoli, paste tomatoes setting, celery and arugula taking off! #texasgarden #texas #garden #fallgarden #growfood

I've been cultivating my own garlic supply for the last few years by saving the biggest cloves behind instead of eating them and replanting them every fall. We have officially reached mega clove status! #garlic #texasgardening #texas #garden
