we had a busy day full of building some new things. a living roof for more edibles now lives on top of the rabbit hutch, perfect for baby greens! we had to scrap the old chicken run due to heavy snow loads this winter. we are building a new run complete with planter boxes for more edibles. can you tell i am trying to cram in as much food as possible into our tiny space. we managed to fit in some grilled cheeses for lunch over the fire and then back to more building. hannah wanted to build a “feel and find box”. her and papa got right to work. the idea is that objects are placed on top of the box in a particular order. the same amount of objects are placed down below where the feel and finder, who cannot see due to the fabric curtain, has to put the objects in the same pattern. fun! and papa found that beautiful piece of wood while scavenging. none of us noticed until i hung it up how much it resembles a goose. it now lives above our coop. hope you all had a productive weekend, with some rest mixed in too.

    I like the idea of a feel and find box! I'll have to make one for my little grands! The rabbit hutch is absolutely beautiful and growing food is so dear, so smart, so reverent.

    i really love your yard. this is the type of yard i hope to have with luke when we buy a home.
    the found piece of wood is very goose-like! i love finding beautiful branches & worn wood while on hikes & scavenger hunts. 🙂
