THE FLORIDA PIONEER FESTIVAL https://www.floridapioneerfestival.com WHAT IS THE FLORIDA PIONEER FESTIVAL? ​The Florida Pioneer Festival is a 501(c)(3) nonprofit organization dedicated to growing roots in our community by preserving heritage, promoting sustainability, and fostering self-reliance. This event is a reimagining of the beloved Pioneer Park Days of Zolfo Springs, honoring our past while looking toward the future. The two-day festival blends tradition with innovation—featuring live music, hands-on workshops, and two full days of education with nationally recognized names like Joel Salatin, Laura Cox, Rachel Hester, and more. As one of Florida’s first major homesteading conferences and festivals, it offers something for everyone—farmers, families, seasoned homesteaders, and those just beginning their journey. With roots in community and self-reliance, the festival provides both practical skills and joyful experiences, bridging generations and creating connections. While homesteading gatherings are growing across the country, this is Florida’s own—designed for our climate, our land, and our communities. Together, we’ll celebrate time-honored traditions while embracing modern-day techniques, offering a uniquely Florida take on this powerful movement. ​ Join us November 7–8, 2025 at Pioneer Park in Zolfo Springs for a weekend of learning, inspiration, and family fun—where history meets homesteading, and community takes root.

Hey y’all! I got back home on Thursday evening after 6 weeks away and one of the cassava plants had fallen over. Initially I just gave it a big trim, but realized it was ready to harvest! This is “togo” cassava from Cody cove farm. Did super well. Haven’t done a taste test yet but looking forward to it! This plant was started from a cutting at the end of January, so about 8 and a half months ago.
