This year’s turkey supper, one of the greatest events here in West Fulton, will take place at Panther Creek Arts on Saturday, November 5th, starting a 5pm, followed by a concert by Amy Fairchild at 8pm.

Off to the mill again!
Remember those beautiful comforters and pillows we brought to you last year? It’s time to make some more! Our family is driving our fleeces out to Michigan this week, so The Radical Homemaker blog is on hold for this week. … AND for next week! Want to know why? Oh…Oh. Oh. This is SERIOUSLY […]
Homemaking Meets Hospitality
“Saoirse, this isn’t our house. Get your stuff off the couch.” “Ula, this isn’t our house. No eating or drinking in the kitchen. Take it outside.” “Mom, this isn’t our kitchen. If you have to touch the food, wear gloves.” We own the cafe, but only because our name is on the deed. Already we […]

Dusky, my Poodle-Yorkie-Mongrel, is sprawled across my lap. Ramona, my cat, mews her greeting and hops up […]
A Winter Rest
While the snow flies…and until it turns back into grass and flowers, I will be taking time off from the blog to travel, rest, play, and work on my newest book. The blog will be back mid-May. If you’d like to keep up with our winter happenings, you can follow me on Facebok (button’s on […]

Whipped
Two days of the on-farm open house plus three markets in two days over the weekend. We are whipped, and I want some sleep time. I will be back with regularly scheduled posts next week.
