The Rural City Dweller: June 2009
http://myurbanhomestead.blogspot.com/2009_06_01_archive.html
Saturday, June 27, 2009. Well, a lot has changed since I last posted. I did not get to go to Chicago or New Orleans. A lot of stuff happened in both my son's life and mine, and the trip is now postponed indefinitely. I am very sad about this, but excited at the same time. I am choosing wisely, because I want this to be the last time I ever have to move in my life. I'm looking seriously at both south Georgia and New Orleans. Very different kinds of places, but places I could feel at home. A Single Mom's A...

The Rural City Dweller: August 2008
http://myurbanhomestead.blogspot.com/2008_08_01_archive.html
Tuesday, August 19, 2008. The Un-Update to The Urban Homestead Story. So this isn't much of an update. I've done pretty much nothing, other than nurture the few plants I had started to sell, and toss some of the free horse manure around a banana tree, along with some kitchen scraps, which gave me melons growing around it. I guess that's progress of a sort, right? Does it count that I actually picked about 10 cherry tomatoes from my one potted plant, and rooted three suckers for the fall garden? About My ...

The Rural City Dweller: December 2008
http://myurbanhomestead.blogspot.com/2008_12_01_archive.html
Monday, December 15, 2008. New Community Just For Urban Homesteaders! I searched and searched for a forum that was just for urban homesteaders. As all of you who do this know, we have all sorts of special problems that people on acreage in the country don't necessarily have (they have their own special problems that we don't have as well). Http:/ urbanhomesteading.webs.com. Let me know if you have any problems. The forums are in beta, so they're iffy sometimes. Posted by Florida Homesteader. The eggplant...

The Rural City Dweller: I don't think my life can get any crazier
http://myurbanhomestead.blogspot.com/2009/05/i-dont-think-my-life-can-get-any.html
Monday, May 18, 2009. I don't think my life can get any crazier. After the kitchen fire on Christmas Day left me without a stove, and with fire damage over and around it, I thought that was as bad as it gets. Then there was the three month fight with the mortgage company over the insurance check. What a load of crap that was! Posted by Florida Homesteader. Next month Ill be traveling to Chicago to see my son. June 24, 2009 at 8:07 PM. Subscribe to: Post Comments (Atom). Growing Your Own Food. My Inspirat...

The Rural City Dweller: March 2009
http://myurbanhomestead.blogspot.com/2009_03_01_archive.html
Friday, March 13, 2009. Tomato and Eggplant Worm Pile Experiment. I've been trying to build this worm bed with a base of horse manure, leaves, and kitchen scraps. So I think I killed the worms by piling too much on and not keeping it moist enough. I don't see any in there. I moved the pot o' potatoes under the oak tree, because potatoes actually don't do too well here in the summer. Maybe by keeping them under there, I can keep them alive. Hope so, anyway. I'll be planting the sweet potatoes ...I put bot...

The Rural City Dweller: September 2008
http://myurbanhomestead.blogspot.com/2008_09_01_archive.html
Saturday, September 27, 2008. The Derelict House Next Door to me is GONE! I'll be posting pics soon, but I'm still getting them resized and put onto Photobucket. It's so strange looking at it now, just a slab. All the horrible invasive plants are gone, but I'm going to have to fight them to take down the two totally rotten trees that could fall on my house during the next big storm. Posted by Florida Homesteader. Please Welcome Patrice to our Urban Homesteader Family! To our blogroll and recognize her!

The Rural City Dweller: November 2008
http://myurbanhomestead.blogspot.com/2008_11_01_archive.html
Friday, November 28, 2008. This is Why You Shold Read the Terms of Use of Any Website or Forum. I got a Google Alert today on "urban homesteading" that had a link to a forum called "Homesteading Today". Some of you may be member of that forum. I just wonder how many people actually read the terms of use. Basically, there is a clause in the TOU for that forum that gives them exclusive rights to anything you post there, including pictures, and the content of all your private messages. This is what it says:.

The Rural City Dweller: Status of the Experimental Garden - May 16, 2009

Saturday, May 16, 2009. Status of the Experimental Garden - May 16, 2009. I will be so happy when the garden is moved into raised beds in the back. This garden, while it's been fun to grow, is not producing like I'm used to, and I'm terribly disappointed in it. Here's the status of the veggies in it now:. Sweet 100, Grape Tomato. Are both going gangbusters. They love the summer heat, so they'll be thriving through out the summer. Husky Cherry Red. Has just started to produce fruit. One plant isn't do...
