This time of year as the nights come early and the cold makes the air thin, I make a habit of leaving little feasts around my yard for the tiny feathered and furred ones. I leave offerings of seed and nut at the base of trees, or in the thick of brambles where they may safely feast. I like to thank the trees as well, for showing us their naked vulnerability, that we may shed what doesn’t serve. I ponder the little critters who may get plump from my offerings and become a delightful meal for someone bigger and more ferocious as the winter trudges on. This cycle is the most challenging for me but, it’s always the most rewarding. I am incredibly grateful for winter. I’m ready to fall into her cold dark embrace. _ _ _ #onewithnature #wildlife #wildunknown #foraging #harvest #winteriscoming #hobbithouse #makeofferings #getoutside #protectearth #climatechange #outdoorliving

Jammy jam time! Apple jam time! Many many apples from our humble family tree, peeled and cooked, and jammed! Yum! 😛✨😬 How do you like your apples?

Calendula appreciation post!! 🌼 I planted these babies from seed back in the early springtime with the goal of learning more about them. Calendula has been in all sorts of medicines and skin care I’ve used. I’ve always felt bad about using their magik without knowing who they are! They have so many pretty faces and are so bouncy and sweet. Most commonly I’ve seen them used in skin care for easing the pain of cuts and burns. But their petals are used for food and dye as well! And they’re heavily regarded globally for various ritual and ceremonial purposes. I’ll be working on making a salve soon. A joy to know. #calendula _ _ _ #harvesting #fallharvest #fullmoon #harvestmoon #summerflowers #loveflowers #greenthumb #wildfood #wildmedicine #getoutside #rewild #outdooradventure #bushcraft #permaculture #natureconnection #motherearth
