It’s midsummer here on the homestead, and that means the harvest is rolling in, the to-do list is growing, and the kitchen floor is… sticky.

In this Pantry Chat, we're talking about:
🌱 What to plant now for a winter harvest (and why August is the perfect time)
🐛 How to deal with grasshopper invasions when you can’t keep chickens
🥬 The easiest way to grow lettuce without spending forever washing it
💛 Why gratitude changes everything when homestead life feels overwhelming
🌳 Lessons from our fruit trees about control—and learning to let go

Whether you’re in the thick of canning season or planning your fall garden, this chat will inspire you to tackle your homesteading season with fresh perspective and renewed joy.
