we meet another friday! we’re off to greenville again this weekend- and i’ll be busy catching up on some sunshine and good reading.  i just got my ‘spring reading’ books this week and i’m so eager to get started on them!

my reading list: less is more, keeping bees, simply in season, beekeeping, the backyard homestead, fresh from the farmers market

keeping bees & beekeeping

why beekeeping? that’s a good question.  i read a snippet about it lately and next i knew i was in the beekeeping section in barnes and noble.  after that? the checkout line.

simply in season & fresh from the farmers market

i’m always looking for new in-season recipes, i’m excited to start folding some doggie ears!

the backyard homestead & less is more

i’ve heard really good things about the backyard homestead, so i planning to start with that one.  plus, i’m itching for spring and yard work so this will really get me motivated! have you heard of less is more? it’s a compilation of articles written by sustainable, positive-thinking writers.  it’s supposed to be a real pick-me-up!

have you read any of these?  what are your spring must-reads?

  • The Backyard Homestead is on my library list as well. I’m looking forward to reading what you thought about it and reading it for myself! I can’t wait for spring and to get my hands dirty!

  • Wow! Great picks Bonnie. I would love to get my hands on the backyard homestead. We are going to get our seeds today to start planting them in our cold frame. I’m excited to see what we can grow and eat this year.

  • Would you make sure to send some sunshine up north :) You’ll have to let me know what you think of Less is More. I saw that in the bookstore and thought it looked interesting!

    Btw, great photos :)!!

  • I love Simply In Season! I checked it out from the library once & kept it so long I could have bought it with my fine!! Thanks for the reminder that I really need to add it to my “buy” list :)
