I'm Cassie - a wife + momma to 2 +we are currently building our homestead on 14-acres in Coastal Georgia.

Remembering those who served + sacrificed so much

Remembering those who served + sacrificed so much through the annual #MURPH workout. @patlong24 and I have been doing this for 6 years together + every year had looked a little different.

This year might have been my favorite 🇺🇸

Hey dads, daughters, sons + friends - need a last minute Mother’s Day gift? Take her to your local nursery + let her pick out a peach tree… by next summer she will have an abundant harvest 🍑

This is an especially great for first year mama’s as you can name them after your children and as you harvest for years to come, you’ll always remember that special first Mother’s Day! 💕

While this one wasn’t given to me on my FIRST Mother’s Day, it is my Charlotte tree + this year we got me a Cooper tree which is a pear tree 🍐 Happy Mother’s Day! 💕

gardening while listening to a podcast is GREAT, but gardening while listening to NATURE is even better. Create space and silence to LISTEN. And hey, you never know what the Lord will tell you in those moments 🪴

Giving them the SPACE + TIME to be a child >>>

Getting outside with no rules, talking about what we hear, see + smell, allowing her to lead + sometimes just giving her quiet space to play. 🌸

Farmer Pat in action + I ain’t mad at it 👨‍🌾 Zinnia row is prepped + seeds will go in hopefully today 🌸🌸🌸 We have decided to do a #notillgardening method - using this tool causes less soil disturbance but allows aeration + the ability to break up some of the roots/weeds.

HOMEMADE PECAN BUTTER … it’s just better.

My parents moved this past year and ended up with TEN beautiful pecan trees 🌳 so naturally I googled what all I could make with pecans. Turns out pecan butter is super simple, healthy + oh so tasty 🌰

-dry roast your shelled pecans at 400 for 10 mins
-grind in a food processor (this will take several passes)
-add in maple syrup + cinnamon
-continue chop/grind until blended and consistency of nut butter

Store in a repurposed glass jar 🫙

Baby chick check 🐓 these girlies are getting big! Thinking of adding the bigger girls in with our big mommas within the next week or so. Also hoping all 3 of our hatched babies are girls… we did a “test” the other day and it seems we have 2 hens and 1 rooster BUT I’m not sure of the test’s accuracy. 🤷🏻‍♀️ I’ll share it on stories tomorrow!

A couple of weeks ago we moved our ducklings from the coop to the pond and they are thriving! We are loving having ducks 🦆 and cannot wait for them to start laying delicious eggs.

In a few short months we are going to be overflowing with eggs, so keep your eyes peeled for when they’re available again! 🍳
