Getting ready for the winter days

The vegetable garden has finished for the year since last week. We still have some red beets and carrots that we can harvest, but they are not growing that fast anymore. We really enjoyed working in the vegetable garden again this year. We tried to grow new vegetables this year like potatoes and cauliflower. It’s still very exiting to see things growing that you planted. The grateful feeling you get every time you harvest vegetables and prepare meals with home grown vegetables! Not to forget, the lovely the chickens who give a lot of joy. They run to you when you give them food and they provide us fresh eggs! I can recommend everyone to grow your own food.

The next few days will be spent preparing for the winter days. In the garden we clean up the leaves of the trees, annual plants and flowers. Our summer clothes will be replaced with winter clothes.

As the days are getting more cloudy and darker, we make sure to make our house bright and cosy. Even winter days can become nice too with all the beautiful lights. Some things you can’t avoid, don’t forget to take your vitamine D and take care of yourself 😉
