This week on the homestead we are getting through the rest of our firewood! About 5 cords hauled from the forest around the cabin need to be bucked up and ready to split before negative temps hit. We made a bonfire, whipped up some homemade marshmallows, and a few pizzas to cap the day after exploring a few trails around the homestead. Recipes below!
Thank you for following along on our homestead journey on the last frontier!
