But I'm back! My fractured leg is not mending but that another story. Next on the calendar is AI for the goats, it's so hard trying to find rental semen tanks here in Southern NSW. I done the course, I've even got the supply of both Nubian and Angora semen straws. Just no transport tank..... so frustrating. And Lucy thinks so too!

Hello there, So I was out thinking about how everyone’s homestead journey always looks different — some of us are knee-deep in soil, some are figuring things out week by week and it hit me: let me actually tap in with the community today. Since joining, I’ve realized this space is more than just tips and posts… it’s real people sharing the good, the messy, the “why won’t this plant just grow?” moments. And honestly, that’s what makes this place feel solid. So I wanna ask you something simple but real: What’s one thing you’re currently struggling with or trying to improve in your homesteading journey? Maybe your chickens are acting weird, maybe your garden isn’t cooperating, maybe you’re just trying to plan your next step. Whatever it is, drop it below. No judgment, just support, shared experiences, and a community that actually gets it. Let’s help each other grow. 🌿🤝✨

Here in Southern NSW Australia we have a little thing called a false spring. Its when the weather starts to warm and you think fantastic, I can move animals to less sheltered paddocks and get seedlings ready to go....... And then it hits! And you remember the false spring. And the freezing weather that comes before the true spring. At least we are heading into summer, for my northern friends, is it getting cold yet?
