It’s doing great! It’s amazingly cool inside the circle, and sitting on the dirt surrounded by stalks and beans feels about as magical as I remember imagining it. Useful lessons learned for next year’s circle: Plant beans on both sids! I planted all the beans on the outside of the sunflowers, and in some cases the beans pull the sunflowers down to the ground. Also, next year’s will be bigger with multiple circles planted one inside the other, so that it’s a thick blanket of bliss. I’m grateful for this gift I gave myself. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/6766f42a3a19fc2feb4d81a2/cbdeb843-ef6f-41b9-83eb-e079a7533dfa/IMG_6494+Large.jpeg Blog - August on the Farm In Pictures (And What Pictures Don’t Show) https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/6766f42a3a19fc2feb4d81a2/f64440ae-698d-4ce4-b8a2-1e2a6a533c69/IMG_6243+Large.jpeg Blog -

August on the Farm In Pictures (And What Pictures Don’t Show) - Make it stand out Some of my most peaceful moments this summer have been at dusk, looking out at a long row of brassicas in the Golden Hour light, or on a few rare nights, kissing the light of a full moon. This kind of beauty, this kind of Light, can’t be captured in pictures. These moments are ordinary, and spectacular. They remind me that my joy is flickering, kindred, alive and well. This kind of beauty… It is growth and decay, it is failure and success, it is bugs that eat plants and bugs that eat bugs, and it is loving all of it. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/6766f42a3a19fc2feb4d81a2/032f56cd-ab71-45b4-aa11-ffaf85a23d87/IMG_6328+Large.jpeg Blog -

In Peru, this type of corn was typically served as a side and presumably steamed or boiled, whereas some of the other types were prepared into crunchy puffed kernels or popped into popcorn. I hoed a plot at the end of the lupine patch and planted the four corn varieties into a block. Around the outside of the block, I seeded some bush beans, and beside the block planted a winter squash start. https://www.paigeslaughter.com/blog/quarter-acre-garden-evolution monthly 0.5 2025-06-13 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/6766f42a3a19fc2feb4d81a2/8bcd0d79-2a2a-4e53-92f6-1bdf6ce7ae07/Tarwi.jpeg Blog - The Garden After All: Plans Changed, and a Honeymoon - Make it stand out Whatever it is, the way you tell your story online can make all the difference. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/6766f42a3a19fc2feb4d81a2/66e41eb6-f3ec-4316-a88a-3a4db9a51d1a/IMG_5707+Large.jpeg Blog - The Garden After All: Plans Changed, and a Honeymoon - Make it stand out Whatever it is, the way you tell your story online can make all the difference. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/6766f42a3a19fc2feb4d81a2/90b4581b-0111-4bb7-8787-0eb77509a60e/IMG_4774+Large.jpeg Blog - The Garden After All: Plans Changed, and a Honeymoon - We ate this during a glamp-like guided trek to one of Peru’s less visited ruins—like Machu Picchu without the crowds, lines, and motorized access. It was our first-ever guided hike, and we felt like royalty when we arrived at camp to a set-up tent and incredible Peruvian food prepared for us—including a cake that read Feliz Luna de Miel. When our guide told us we were eating lupine, we started asking questions. She said this type had to be boiled three times and grew in the high mountains. The Incas were masters of seed selection, co-creating so many edible plants, especially beans and corn. We asked her where we could get seed, and she pointed us toward a market in Cusco. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/6766f42a3a19fc2feb4d81a2/1749508027641-YOLTT70T3TNS4JGK38UN/0743.jpg Blog - The Garden After All: Plans Changed, and a Honeymoon https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/6766f42a3a19fc2feb4d81a2/1749508035003-FQ8I40RK4JLRPI8TPPIZ/0757.jpg Blog - The Garden After All: Plans Changed, and a Honeymoon https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/6766f42a3a19fc2feb4d81a2/1749508042007-IDC2EF7WWZZI5FBQE9NO/0766.jpg Blog - The Garden After All: Plans Changed, and a Honeymoon https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/6766f42a3a19fc2feb4d81a2/1749508060557-K24MZYABTCXTAHGYZ9QY/0777.jpg Blog - The Garden After All: Plans Changed, and a Honeymoon https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/6766f42a3a19fc2feb4d81a2/1749508108750-8E41KH68R0HQCAC4U1QV/0114.jpg Blog - The Garden After All: Plans Changed, and a Honeymoon https://www.paigeslaughter.com/blog/spring-farm-animals-raising-pasture-meat-birds monthly 0.5 2025-06-13 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/6766f42a3a19fc2feb4d81a2/46dcc850-888c-4b33-b9ab-a34093456433/IMG_5626+Large.jpeg Blog - Spring, as the Animals Live It - Make it stand out These chicks are about a week old.

Other irrigation opportunities on the property include massive (moveable) storage tanks and another rectangular, 15-foot-deep, plastic-lined hole we’ve named The Death Trap, dug higher up on the property with gravity in mind. Systems like this—like flood irrigation—will allow us to irrigate without running pumps, which are both resource (electricity) intensive and reliant on the grid, making them less aligned with our operating values. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/6766f42a3a19fc2feb4d81a2/cae2123f-52f8-4b11-912b-d74fa35b3a5a/IMG_5658+Large.jpeg Blog - Where Everything Goes (For Now) - Make it stand out Whatever it is, the way you tell your story online can make all the difference. https://www.paigeslaughter.com/blog/double-bubble-hoophouse-spring monthly 0.5 2025-05-01 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/6766f42a3a19fc2feb4d81a2/1746135877246-HR1WQ70QSHAR8FIVIJEE/IMG_2703EDC5AB6A-1.jpg Blog - A Farm and a Homestead - Outside temps, March 2025 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/6766f42a3a19fc2feb4d81a2/1746136783030-T9DF5WL42IXEU12D6VXZ/IMG_F3CA30BFC5B8-1.jpeg Blog - A Farm and a Homestead - Greenhouse temps, March 2025 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/6766f42a3a19fc2feb4d81a2/1746135361450-KFCHX74IBEP2GOPLXMWG/IMG_5230+Large.jpeg Blog - A Farm and a Homestead https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/6766f42a3a19fc2feb4d81a2/1746135361611-UYAXWM0QTKFP88AAVPIM/IMG_5231+Large.jpeg Blog - A Farm and a Homestead https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/6766f42a3a19fc2feb4d81a2/1746135363207-96ZGO5I7CO9QJJFEHKEX/IMG_5232+Large.jpeg Blog - A Farm and a Homestead https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/6766f42a3a19fc2feb4d81a2/1746135364234-9S496Z16TE0KF3JLC864/IMG_5235+Large.jpeg Blog - A Farm and a Homestead https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/6766f42a3a19fc2feb4d81a2/1746135365864-YS89XZPS636B5EKRHX75/IMG_5236+Large.jpeg Blog - A Farm and a Homestead https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/6766f42a3a19fc2feb4d81a2/1746135366632-ENCP7TEHJ49PNYDH9KU6/IMG_5241+Large.jpeg Blog - A Farm and a Homestead https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/6766f42a3a19fc2feb4d81a2/1746135367730-HJJ6VJGCV195916D8Q68/IMG_5244+Large.jpeg Blog - A Farm and a Homestead https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/6766f42a3a19fc2feb4d81a2/1746135368953-1I16UWY0FQLG6GTW73V8/IMG_5245+Large.jpeg Blog - A Farm and a Homestead https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/6766f42a3a19fc2feb4d81a2/1746135370058-O4KM99JPOJSVCQY9Y9OA/IMG_5250+Large.jpeg Blog - A Farm and a Homestead https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/6766f42a3a19fc2feb4d81a2/1746135370802-VHWJU7APLDMK1TNEEALO/IMG_5254+Large.jpeg Blog - A Farm and a Homestead https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/6766f42a3a19fc2feb4d81a2/1746135371476-NBCVSJQDD277JS3K9609/IMG_5258+Large.jpeg Blog - A Farm and a Homestead https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/6766f42a3a19fc2feb4d81a2/1746135372877-G2HZP3BRSA08P5UKTGSX/IMG_5265+Large.jpeg Blog - A Farm and a Homestead https://www.paigeslaughter.com/blog/snowmelt-reveals-holes monthly 0.5 2025-04-02 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/6766f42a3a19fc2feb4d81a2/01d60a97-aa2c-4209-8cd9-5f1ca7a8199c/IMG_5204+Large.jpeg Blog - Under the Snow, Revealed - I've started asking myself lately, if today were my last day on earth, would I be happy with the life I'm leading? Of course there many criticisms that come to mind: I should write more, be more creative, spend more time with my loved ones, spend less time on the computer, more time doing work that really matters. But these are all things I'm actively working towards, little by little by little. A nd if we can unlearn the narrative that we're supposed to have everything all at once, that we're supposed to grind and be grateful and someday earn happiness, that we should have already figured it all out— then it starts to feel so obvious: What else is there than little-by-littling? https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/6766f42a3a19fc2feb4d81a2/08494d68-7ba8-48aa-8ed2-97a320fac5e3/IMG_5212+Large.jpeg Blog - Under the Snow, Revealed - Make it stand out Whatever it is, the way you tell your story online can make all the difference. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/6766f42a3a19fc2feb4d81a2/5df873b7-4f6a-430e-8051-b9de21890aae/IMG_5203+Large.jpeg Blog - Under the Snow, Revealed - Make it stand out Whatever it is, the way you tell your story online can make all the difference. https://www.paigeslaughter.com/blog/homestead-visioning-process monthly 0.5 2025-03-29 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/6766f42a3a19fc2feb4d81a2/3eac7379-6bda-4a8f-92b7-8a309d433356/homestead+vision.jpg Blog - Before We Break Ground: Defining Our Vision, Values and Goals - Make it stand out Whatever it is, the way you tell your story online can make all the difference. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/6766f42a3a19fc2feb4d81a2/3b8662ec-065f-4848-a141-12623f8d4ee7/IMG_5364+Large.jpeg Blog - Before We Break Ground: Defining Our Vision, Values and Goals - Our Homestead Goals (Refined) Cultivate an efficient and resilient farm through regenerative practices to produce diverse and delicious food that supports a complete human diet. Practice food storage, processing, preparation, and culinary art as a means to explore flavor and sustenance, further deepening our relationship with food. Enable fun, quality time, and reflection through games, movement, making, and refuge. Create a comfortable, safe, and inspired home for our family with carefully planned spaces that feel dynamic, open, and inviting. Integrate structures and landscaping to create a diversity of environments—temperatures and textures—that offer retreat and foster wellness in body and mind. Build visually aesthetic, practical, and multifunctional environments—designed for adaptability and longevity—where a human-centered ecosystem supports an abundance of life. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/6766f42a3a19fc2feb4d81a2/1648ade0-4ef6-4c9d-99e2-710c0fba0d40/IMG_20250328_0002.jpg Blog - Before We Break Ground: Defining Our Vision, Values and Goals - We started with another list of words —a brain dump, any words that came to mind— categorizing as we went by intuiting what would be grouped together, letting the categories come organically out of the words we dumped onto the page. This list would come in handy again and again throughout the process as we made our way from the abstract Vision to the more concrete Goals and Programs — but more on that in a bit. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/6766f42a3a19fc2feb4d81a2/5c295ee4-4a27-4de0-9452-0c3c0a5ba90a/IMG_5366+Large.jpeg Blog - Before We Break Ground: Defining Our Vision, Values and Goals - Our Homestead Vision (Refined) When people connect—to each other and to the land—something essential is restored. Engagement inspires playfulness, enjoyment, creativity, and authenticity. We envision a diverse, regenerative, food-producing ecosystem supported by intentional systems at every level—from aquifer to canopy— where humans connect with a complete diet by growing, harvesting, preserving, and preparing food; where agricultural practices are rooted in logic, reverence, efficiency, and love. Sustenance shapes lifestyle—and that rhythm of life, in turn, creates sustenance. We envision a space that encourages creativity, play, and rest, reminding us to experience joyful activities and to prioritize quality time—life’s most precious resource. Here, learning, observation, inventiveness, reflection, and integrity anchor daily life. We aim to cultivate a legacy in which humans are not separate from nature, but intricately and inseparably part of it. https://www.paigeslaughter.com/blog/sealing-the-deal-off-grid monthly 0.5 2025-03-20 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/6766f42a3a19fc2feb4d81a2/640d8ccc-cb40-4a6d-abb0-b2d6d569ebc6/IMG_5192+Large.jpeg Blog - From the Rainforest Afar, We Sealed Our Desert Deal. - Make it stand out Whatever it is, the way you tell your story online can make all the difference. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/6766f42a3a19fc2feb4d81a2/757f8c08-e367-4bce-a0c2-06a5a52a6d47/Paige+hiking+in+Maui.jpeg Blog - From the Rainforest Afar, We Sealed Our Desert Deal. - Make it stand out Here’s me and a really tall fern! https://www.paigeslaughter.com/blog/due-diligence-surprises monthly 0.5 2025-03-20 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/6766f42a3a19fc2feb4d81a2/e7d3fabd-bb35-42c7-ace0-e78ba324c9c9/snowy+pond.jpg Blog - I Negotiate Now - Make it stand out Whatever it is, the way you tell your story online can make all the difference. https://www.paigeslaughter.com/blog/embarking-on-our-lifelong-homestead-journey monthly 0.5 2025-06-09 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/6766f42a3a19fc2feb4d81a2/37dc01cd-a2bc-4a9b-bff2-cd2ab639a615/Property+Pano.jpeg Blog - Embarking On Our Lifelong Homestead Journey - Make it stand out Whatever it is, the way you tell your story online can make all the difference. https://www.paigeslaughter.com/blog/homesteading-financial-independence monthly 0.5 2025-03-20 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/6766f42a3a19fc2feb4d81a2/8717960a-31d0-4dc0-bf62-ee6e745c5b73/Screenshot+2024-12-29+at+8.22.35%E2%80%AFPM.png Blog - Let’s Cut to the Chase: Homesteading Ain’t Free. - Make it stand out The following steps are meant to be used with My Monthly Budgeter. https://www.paigeslaughter.com/blog/ps-what-were-doing-here monthly 0.5 2024-12-30 https://www.paigeslaughter.com/blog/garden-planning-at-elevation-2025-plan monthly 0.5 2025-03-20 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/6766f42a3a19fc2feb4d81a2/138db3f2-7ee9-4d0e-a31b-7725b977b6ce/IMG_2378.jpeg Blog - Garden Planning at Elevation: Tips for Success, And My Practical Plan for 2025 - Make it stand out Whatever it is, the way you tell your story online can make all the difference. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/6766f42a3a19fc2feb4d81a2/1735321945711-7P19LVBYX588046BCTWM/0429.jpg Blog - Garden Planning at Elevation: Tips for Success, And My Practical Plan for 2025 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/6766f42a3a19fc2feb4d81a2/1735320961277-PZRKYBDH55U1ZP8X311Z/0303.jpg Blog - Garden Planning at Elevation: Tips for Success, And My Practical Plan for 2025 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/6766f42a3a19fc2feb4d81a2/1735321543259-FEOSUCBL58TCPN03WBC2/0253.jpg Blog - Garden Planning at Elevation: Tips for Success, And My Practical Plan for 2025 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/6766f42a3a19fc2feb4d81a2/aa2025bb-cc2e-41c9-9512-5ea6482ed800/IMG_2790.jpeg Blog - Garden Planning at Elevation: Tips for Success, And My Practical Plan for 2025 - Colder climates often mean shorter growing seasons, too. Days to Grow is another great starting point for finding what works. For example, we’re right on the edge of being able to grow winter squash and, even more so, melon. Flipping through the squash in seed catalogs, I’m always looking at number of days, as 10 or 15 days can make a huge difference. Some gems so far: Galeux d'Eysines, a beautiful and delicious warty winter squash Jarrahdale Pumpkin, stunning with amazing storage quality and great for soups Blacktail Mountain, a watermelon that keeps for a bit This year, I’m continuing my search for a butternut squash and a cantaloupe that can consistently make it in our climate. https://www.paigeslaughter.com/blog/diy-christmas-stockings monthly 0.5 2025-03-15 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/6766f42a3a19fc2feb4d81a2/2ebf4327-3505-4d4c-94e7-06256e4d943b/Fabric_knitted_cuff.jpeg Blog - All’s Well That Ends in Pink Sequin (Or, How to Knit & Sew Cuffed Christmas Stockings) - Getting settled into sewing always takes me a hot hour, during which I’m rummaging through piles of to-be-donated clothes, neglected towels and pillowcases relegated to far corners of closets and cabinets, and boxes of fabrics, all in an attempt to use something I’ve kept around for this vary occasion while trying to convince myself I won’t later come up with a better use of the thing and regret my decisions terribly…. Yeah, it’s dramatic. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/6766f42a3a19fc2feb4d81a2/a64400c7-ab0e-4ffb-9cd3-2961df883b91/IMG_5059+Large.jpeg Blog - All’s Well That Ends in Pink Sequin (Or, How to Knit & Sew Cuffed Christmas Stockings) - Make it stand out Whatever it is, the way you tell your story online can make all the difference. https://www.paigeslaughter.com/blog/from-the-desk-of-the-author monthly 0.5 2025-03-15 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/6766f42a3a19fc2feb4d81a2/b7607273-968d-4907-9b82-8757e81c5c1c/IMG_4034+Large.jpg Blog - From the Desk of the Author - Make it stand out Though, this is CoCo.

Creativity is my job, but it's also what makes me, me and if you're reading this—I'm guessing it's part of what makes you, you. The journey to homesteading is a winding one, and you don't have to be surrounding by the cowboys on Yellowstone to be on it. Trauma and sensitivity have forced a need in my life for serious intention; I hope it helps you in whatever you're working through. Microsoft Teams-ing with Fortune 50 executives was not on my vision board as a metric of success, but I've learned a thing or two about corporate politics, integrity, hustle, burnout and being irreplaceable; if you're an ambitious human, you're in the right place. This is Desk to Dirt. I'm glad you're here. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/6766f42a3a19fc2feb4d81a2/cd7fea58-38f6-440a-b39d-5f145b1f2fef/IMG_2722+Large.jpg Blog - From the Desk of the Author - My husband and I live on a farm.
