Happy from Violet 🐥

She’s doing so much better! She’s walking and getting around so well now 🥹 But sadly, her mama hen won’t take her back. So I’ll be raising her separately until she’s old enough to join the rest of the flock. She’s the sweetest little baby and loves to cuddle 🥰

Sourdough Workshop this Saturday!! 🍞

I’ve got 2 spots open for this month’s workshop!

In the comfort of my home kitchen, we will be learning how to bake an artisan sourdough loaf!

Time: 11:00-1:00

Cost of workshop: $25- Please pay at the time of registration to secure your spot. I accept Venmo @ Kim-Haggerty-9, cash, Facebook pay, and Square by following this link: https://square.link/u/uLqfMcYV

During this workshop you will:

-Learn how to feed and maintain a sourdough starter that you will bring home
-Follow along with me to create your own dough to bring home and bake
-Watch as I demonstrate all the steps of the process
-Eat some yummy sourdough bread!

If you are interested in baking your loaf at home after our class, you will need parchment paper and a dutch oven to bake your loaf in. I recommend an enameled 6 quart cast iron pot with a lid. I also recommend having a digital scale, as we measure everything in grams.

Not able to come to the workshop? Ask me about my Sourdough Starter kits and Sourdough breadmaking kits! These kits include items you’ll need to start baking your own sourdough bread at home! I include step by step instructions and recipes and will be available for any questions you may have along the way!

Chicken Storytime! 🐔

This week I had the opportunity to participate in a chicken themed storytime at my local library 😍

I brought my sweetest gal Raven in to meet all the kids and their parents and she did wonderfully! Lots of rubs and compliments on her soft feathers and chill demeanor ❤️ We learned some fun facts about chickens, read some fun chicken books, and did chicken crafts!

Be sure to check out the fun events the library has planned for this summer! ☀️

Springtime is my favorite time 🌸

The chickens are laying 15-17 eggs a day, and we’ve got a broody mama setting on 6 eggs ❤️ The strawberries and blackberry bushes are flowering and the elderberries have buds already! I’m planning on planting my corn, zinnias, calendula, and sugar snap peas out in the big garden in a couple weeks. I’m also growing herbs like rosemary, spearmint, lemon thyme, chamomile, and lavender this year. They smell divine 😍 I’ve got my tomatoes, sugar snap peas, cucumbers, and lettuce planted in the raised beds.

I’ve also been busy putting together bread making and sourdough starter kits for my booth at the at ! I’m super excited to be a vendor this year! I’m also planning on teaching 4 sourdough bread workshops this summer 😍 Be sure to sign up if you’re interested in attending!
