The Cat Cabin!

With winter trying to decide if it's gonna grab the farm in it's icy grip this year, I've put away most of the field tools and equipment and turned my time and attention to planning for next season and lots of seed prepping.
Next spring, the website should be teeming with more seed varieties and wintertime crafts, but first all the seed needs to be threshed, weighed, and measured out and the packets designed and printed. Wintertime is when I get to daydream about all the beautiful and tasty things that I'll get to seed, transplant, and grow next year and hopefully plan well enough to have space for everything ;)!
Wintertime is also a perfect time to get caught up on reading or watching movies, especially when I can have a hot cup of tea and maybe a few cats or kittens curled up in my lap. 
Here's to a winter with enough snow to ski, snowshoe, and sled (and to cover and protect the soil from those extra frosty below zero temps!) 🍻🥂🍻

Crisp mornings and cool nights! That's what winter is for!

So most of my work turns indoors, like prepping seeds to their seed packets. I've got a lot more to prep this winter than last and *luckily* I have ample helpers!

The hens know it's winter when they gotta stay inside more and get out on the green less and less, so they take advantage of every moment when they are out, even if it is to inspect one of their huts mid-construction

When the kittens aren't helping me with seed saving, they like to fight over the best nap spots. Generally the higher up or the closer to the wood stove the better!

Did you know that ice forms completely different crystals dependent upon humidity, temperature, and atmospheric pressure? and their structure changes in the snowpack as those conditions change too?

​If you need a special something to brighten your space, or a friends, as the days get shorter and darker, look no further than the Forever Flower Dried Bouquets now available at the Amish Farm to Market Store in Libby!
Once they're gone, there won't be more until next fall so snatch them up early!

Some real measurable snow fall made me so hopeful!

Even if the hens are glad to watch it recede for a bit so they can get at that grass and dirt!

The kittens are out of their office space and fully integrated into the family! Hella was a little extra grumpy the first few days, but her outings to help me in the greenhouse and tidy the shed gave her some quieter moments away from the kitten chaos. ​
