Well, hey there friend, welcome back to the old fashioned on purpose podcast.

This is season six, the very first episode of this brand new season.

We wrapped up season five a couple of weeks ago.

That was our business topic, homestead business, homestead entrepreneurship, super fun.

And then I took a little bit of a break, well, sort of, you know, how breaks for homesteaders

go.

I just wasn't recording as many podcasts, but I was working on the soda fountain project

and we had a horsemanship clinic here and have been going to horse shows and doing all the

things around the homestead, you know, that are just part of summer.

And now I'm kind of ready to get my head back in the game when it comes to the garden

stuff because, you know, we're in that honeymoon season of the garden and things look pretty,

but they're not ginormous yet.

And I don't have a lot of vegetables coming in, but we all know that's going to change

very, very soon.

And preservation season tends to kind of hit you like a ton of bricks, it does that to

me every year.

I mean, I know it's coming.

I have all the canning jars I'm kind of prepared.

But then when stuff starts to be ready and needs to be addressed, sometimes I'm a little

bit scrambling.

So give me a head back in the game, get in the garden ready to go kind of taking account

of what I have and what I need.
