Hi Elizaray! We trailer camp a few times a year. We just like to get away and hang out. Hiking if we're near someplace to go. DH isnt into tent camping out in the middle of nowhere.

BackwoodsBella was the name I got on another board I belong to for cake decorating. I got it becuase we live on 6 wooded acres and we cut wood a lot :)

What a fun way to get a name! I bet you have lots of fun living on acres! Do you garden?

Julie- Gardens are amazing. Have you read "Animal Vegetable, Miracle" by Barbara Kingsolver? It is really inspirational.

I Highly recommend it! It will get you so inspired you will be wondering exactly how early you can start the seeds!

Are you thinking raised bed gardening or traditional in the ground gardening?

Oh another book you might want to read is "Square Foot Gardening"
