Homestead Happenings for July 24, 2026 - EP 1151

Today I am joined by the Tactical Redneck for our weekly update from Holler Homestead. We talk about wrapping up peach season, putting food by before it goes to waste, building a backlog of freezer meals, improving the duck pond, and the latest fencing adventures. We also share what we've been learning from this year's garden, experiments with coffee-dyed aprons for upcoming classes, and why choosing to cultivate steady progress instead of chasing perfection is making a real difference around the homestead.
