After chatting with the Chief of Police about the bees and hearing what he recommend, I came up with a plan that hopefully will work. I want to keep the bees where I have them since I did so much planning for the whole yard now and future with the bees in their current location. I'm going to add a wall to help alter the bees flight pattern and hopefully that will be enough to get an ok.
I have never done a full tour of my urban homestead, so today while doing a few normal task I thought I would show you around. Hope you enjoy hanging out with me and the kids and seeing all the exciting stuff we have going on at our urban homestead. We are doing a lot this year, growing a lot of our food, vermicomposting, urban beekeeping, and working on a new food forest area.
Thanks for watching!

We went on a little family trip to Crossroads Village and Huckleberry Railroad. This park is set up like an old town with a saw mill, cider mill, and many other old building from the late 1800's and early 1900's. They had a magic show in the old theater that the kids enjoyed a bunch. While we were there we got a pretty cool tour of an old caboose. Hope you enjoy our day out with us.

In order to start the garlic farm business, were going to need a bunch of garlic. I have some from the previous year but not enough to hopefully be able to sell it. I went with the source I have been buying my garlic from for a few years now and that was www.ufseeds.com I haven't had any issues with the company and they carry a decent variety for different garlic's.

The plan was to try and get some gardening done but some times things don't go the way you wanted them to. However the kids got a nice little upgrade in the hideout.

If you have been watching since last year, you guys know that the only thing I love about fall is it's cider mill season. We tried to go to a cider mill that my grandma used to work at but it was super busy so we ended up turning around to find somewhere else to go. After a couple stops we finally found this cute little place called Goodison Cider Mill. We had a blast and the donuts were awesome!

How to tap a maple tree as learned from YouTube University. This is my first year tapping maple trees in Michigan and this is how to tap them according to everything I learned on YouTube. We are using a bag method instead of the bucket so I'll show you how the pvc pipe and bag work together.

Something permaculture has taught me really helped make my garden a lot better. Lessons can be learned from many different sources and so as you are planning your garden whether it your first garden or you've been gardening for many years it is sometimes good to remember lessons you have learned. This is one of the biggest lessons I've learned from my reading on permaculture that was really helpful for my property.
