This week on the “homestead” in photos. 8-30-2015
We have had a busy week this week. Two loads of wood hauled and stacked for the winter (just two more to go and we will have our winter wood in); we finished the ramp on the new back deck so we can get the wheelbarrows and the green bins around to the back; the Concord grapes were picked and juiced and turned into delicious beautiful purple jelly. Neither Sal or I are big wine drinkers – and definitely not knowledgeable enough to know what to buy so friends are going to begin receiving lovely jelly upon our arrival for visits!! We will start a new trend from our homestead to yours.
