Apple Treasure Hunt
Brendan’s pics on Twitter were like watching an apple treasure hunt reality show.
Quince – the Homesteaders Secret
Did you know that heritage homesteads had 1 or 2 Quince trees – to be used to create pectin for jams and jellies – before store bought pectin.
I like the Happy Little Accidents cider and we had that at Christmas.

I elderberry plants, elderberry cuttings, comfrey crowns and root cuttings available. Adapted to the Midwest.
Seeds and trees have “memory”. They thrived and reproduced in a certain climate.
Often when you buy chestnut trees or seeds online, you have to buy from nurseries in the Northeast or Southeast US, or the Pacific Northwest.
Take it from us, trees grown in those climates do not do well in Kansas.
Buying from our Kansas homestead, with nut trees grown and adapted to the Midwest, will make them much more likely to be successful on your homestead or in your yard.
