Dream come true! For years I`ve wanted to maximize my garden and my time so I`d be able to grow enough for my family and my community. I`ve finally made it happen! And I`ve already had a few customers today. That fills my heart with joy. #farmstand #localfood #organicgardening #communityfirst #maine

The rain really put us behind schedule this year, but the harvest is finally coming in with a vengeance and it makes me so happy! I am so excited to fill my pantry and freezer and to provide affordable organic produce to my community. #vegetablegardenlove #veggiegardening #organicveggiegrower #greenthumbgardener #growyourownfood #farmstand

Not gonna lie, I`m pretty proud of my farm stand sign. It was a labor of love. #supportfarms #farmstand #farmfresh #homesteadlife

This is a personal triumph. I`ve never successfully gotten a butterfly bush to stay alive for more than a season, let alone flower. This bush is a beast, practically concealing the woodshed door. #happypollinators #butterflybush

The fog rising out of the mountain this morning was so pretty. The picture doesn`t do it justice. #earlymorning #lifeonthefarm #mainemorning #homesteading #homesteadlife

My #weekendwarrior project is really looking like something now. It`s a quail pen! The plan is to use it for a brooder for the littles, a grow out for the culls, and winter housing for the breeder stock. Hopefully the next two go a little faster. #coturnixquail #quailpen #quailfarming #brooder

I`ve got myself a little #weekendwarrior project going on. I`ll give you a hint... it`s for the quail and it will be multipurpose. #coturnixquail

What is this weird creature? I want to say some sort of caterpillar, but he has little suction cup like "feet" underneath. I`m at a loss.

Made a new little friend while adding fresh wood chips to the quail aviary. The bird didn`t even notice his existence. #coturnixquail #quailaviary #herplife

This might very well be the most I`ve ever spent on an outfit, but it was money well spent. These mosquitoes are out of control! 🦟 #MosquitoSeason #SummerPestProblems #MeshClothingForBites #BugBitesProtection #OutdoorSafetyTips

Finally! Some blueberries are starting to appear on the high bushes! It`s been a long wait. I`m so excited I can hardly contain myself! #FinallyFruit #GrowYourOwnFruit #Blueberries #HighBushHarvest #GardenHarvesting

Be the crazy lady who hordes pizza boxes from friends, family, and neighbors. They`re great for suppressing weeds in the garden paths and there`s no tape to remove. #gardentips #upcycle #cardboardpackaging #gardening #organicgardening #gardenhacks

This late-night visitor is NOT welcome here. She has been spotted with 4 babes in tow right next to the quail aviary. I`m confident the aviary is completely predator-proof, but I know she`s freaking them out. #raccoons #predators #quailsofinstagram #coturnixcoturnix #coturnixquail

The pupper did a trial ATV ride. He did great! Now to fashion an actual setup so he can safely trail ride with him. #workingdog #farmdog #atvriding #mybestfriend #caninecompanions

First egg from the new flock (about 5 days ahead of schedule). The smallest farmboy spotted it when we were doing afternoon chores. #quaileggs #coturnixquail #quailfarming

It`s gonna be another scorcher today. I`m not sure if you`re aware, but we Mainers don`t do heat. We`re melting up here. #summerheat #toohot #immelting
