A diary of my week
Ever wonder what I do in a week? Well, here’s one week in my life.

A round up of what I’ve been up to in the garden over the last couple of weeks.
A week away
I left the farm for a whole 8 days! I had so much fun! Here are some highlights.
The restorative things
Weirdly, life isn’t all about gardening. Sometimes you’ve gotta find some balance.
Spring updates
Things keep ticking along here at The Outpost, so how are all those projects going?
Banana farmin
We are officially eating our own home-grown bananas!!
The mulch pile
A giant pile of mulch stands between us and our dream home.

This Father’s Day, I’m looking at the values I gained as my father’s daughter.
Planting trees
Any day you get to plant a tree is a good day. And I’ve planted 96 trees so far this month.
The New Zealand Whole Earth Catalogue
Why and how I collected the complete set of The New Zealand Whole Earth Catalogues.
Befores and afters
A look at how far we’ve come since we purchased The Outpost.
An update post
A collection of updates about eggs, chickens, worms, weather, and garlic.
Winter gardening in the Far North
It’s time to tidy the strawberries, plant garlic, and prepare for potatoes.
In-ground worm farming
Installing some new worm farms directly in the garden to continuously improve a poorly-performing garden bed.
The International Year of Millets
The UN has declared 2023 the International Year of Millets, so I tried growing some millet.
