I have been blogging of our homesteading adventures for around 4 years now. I am taking a new direction and will begin a video series on other Homesteaders and Artisans. I have some artisans lined up (a willow furniture maker who will show us how to make a garden obelisk,a loal taking me on my my first mushroom -for morels!- which I have never experienced either. We also have a potter who will show us how to make pottery crocks without a wheel then how to do a pit firing- broken down into simple terms. plus we have a few festivals spotlighting on the wild foods and such where we will have a cooking tutorial involving the wild edible.
I would like to find some local homesteaders who would be open to me coming out for a day and letting me do a spotlight on what they do. I am looking for those who would be doing any of the following:
Cold weather crops (brussel sprouts, broccoli, spring lettuce, cold frames, vinegar making, etc.) or anything else that is possibly March/ April related activities.
If you have a blog, please do share that with me as well so I may look it over and get more of a feel on what your place is like. Be sure to tell me a little about yourself/family and your Homestead. However big or small.
If you do not hear back from me it is not because you are not being considered. I may see you for another season due to what your are doing/have to offer on your place.
I currently have a sponsor for all my recording equipment through Overstock.com but do not have any as of yet to help curb the travel expense. This is why I am staying in our state area.(I am not asking for money- I want real people and real knowledge/adventure to share with my viewers. Thats where you come in. As the segments are aired and start to pick up more attention, I plan to expand my designations.
Just send me a PM through Homesteading today so I may look over and contact those interested.
Hopefully I can find some Homesteaders willing to allow me a road trip their way.
If you have any suggestions for segments, please do share. If you have something unique on your place we could do a segment on, please include it, too. Thanks guys. Hopefully I can find some people to fill up my March schedule and beyond.
