Haw River Homestead is a place where our passion for the slow life and a drive to become more self-reliant meet. Over the past 3 years we have planted, explored, and slowly built our dream home (ok, we are still working on it).

If only I could spend all my waking hours here, hosting workshops and working on projects and harvesting peas and watching my kids befriend ants and bunnies. But even just a few hours is better than none. One of my favorite things about going into work later than I have the last ten years is actually seeing the garden in the morning - covered in dew, ready for a new day. 🐝🌿🌞
Today starts the doterra 7-day Green Cleaning Challenge! How many of you are ready to say goodbye to toxins in your cleaners? Using essential oils as natural cleaners is one of the easiest ways to incorporate oils into your daily routine. ⠀ ⠀ Most cleaning products on the market are scented with an artificial pine scent that seems synonymous with clean. Why not get this naturally? Tree oils like Cypress, Cedarwood, and Tea Tree protect against environmental threats and leave a natural clean scent while also effectively cleaning your surfaces. And, of course you all know how much I love Lemon essential oil. Add 10 drops of lemon and 10 drops of Thyme to remove unwanted odors from transhcans to bathrooms. ⠀ ⠀ I'll be sharing the daily challenge in my stories this week. Today's is all about updating your kitchen cleaners. I'm excited to finally replace my dishwasher tabs later this week! #doterracleansgreen
When your Komatsuna is about as tall as your husband! 😂Greens go so fast here in this heat and humidity, so I will be replacing that bed this week with some cucumbers and more squash! #hawriverhomestead
