Blueberries

blueberry bush
Look what we found! A blueberry bush just loaded with berries! Yum. I can’t wait until they are ripe. I need to get a net on it so the birds don’t get it before me. Blueberry pancakes and muffins here we come.
Y’all come back now!

About the author
I am a work at home Mom of two of the best boys ever. I am a Nationally Certified Master Groomer and have been grooming out of my home for the last 12 years.
We have recently moved to Greenbrier Tn on 27 acres. We are new to the "homesteading thing" but we are excited to learn. We hope to be filling our farm with many critters and a garden.
We are homeschoolers so everything is a unit study to us. It has been fun to see the boys help Dad cut firewood. We will also be learning how to build a chicken coop in the near future as well.
I have been making handcrafted soap lately as well and I am seeing an improvement in that business as well. It is all natural vegetable and goat milk based soaps. Can't wait to share this experience with everyone.
SWEEEEEEET!!!!! MAKIN ME HUNGRY JUST LOOKIN AT THE RAW PRODUCT!
YUMMY! We have blueberries in our yard too, and we haven’t come up with a way to keep the birds off. We tried netting and the consequences were more than my son and I could bear. Not sure I want to go into detail, and we may not have applied the netting properly, but suffice it to say it’s not a pretty site when a bird or two gets entangled. We decided we’d just share.
I do have something else I’m going to try this year – holographic bird repellent ribbon. I’ll let you know how it goes.
Looking forward to some of those blueberry pancakes in just a couple of weeks!
