In this video we give a basic example of how to propagate African Blue Basil, which can be applied to most other Basils.

Help Out When You Can
I saw this video recently from Rose Homestead. Sadly, she lost her YouTube channel after two years of hard work and dedication, which had 60,000 subscribers. It’s so unfortunate to hear that she lost all of her work. I wanted to bring awareness to her channel and website, so we can support them and hopefully get their new channel back to where it was.
Give them a subscribe and support them if you can.
Long time no see!
Welcome back!
Or welcome back us? It’s been awhile since we last posted on this blog, and it feels a little sad when we know we could be sharing more. We want to inspire, create change, make the world a little better even if just through a little blog like this. After all, you never know who may be reading on the other side. 😉
While this blog may not have been updated recently, we still are (somewhat) more active on our instagram where we share more of the happenings within our garden. And also, we are artists, and are much more frequently sharing on Sacred Visions Studio.
We are also on www.freesteading.com but don’t post there as much as we should, but it is a great site to find resources and like minded people within the homesteading community. Another good one is www.permies.com.
While we do not know what the future of this blog is, we want to let you know we are alive and well, with hope to continue to work our way towards Awakening our Wild Souls!
If there is one last piece of advice we would like to leave, it is this:
“If more of us valued food and cheer and song above hoarded gold, it would be a merrier world.”

Create Your Own Florida Food Forest!
A little over a year ago David the Good released a new book titled “Create Your Own Florida Food Forest.” A book we just so happen to have done illustrations for!
Continue reading Create Your Own Florida Food Forest!This weed can feed your animals!
This Florida native plant “Spanish Needles” or more commonly known as “Bidens Alba” is hated by Florida residents everywhere… But what we told you this “Weed” is in fact one of the best animal feed and pollinator plants around?
Hot Summer Reminder
Reminding all who have homesteads or pets that live outdoors that it is dangerously hot this August.
Be sure your animals have plenty of water and shade, and are not getting too stressed by the heat.
Kiddy pools and frozen water bottles are a handy tool for coops and hutches if you can’t move your animals.
Just a reminder as we go through this summer finale, as we have actually been having eggs spoil right out from beneath our brooding pigeons- that’s how hot it is!
Stay cool, and keep hydrated every one!
Watermelon Vandalism
Early in the morning, we discovered a smashed watermelon in the street next to the outskirts of our yard where we were growing watermelon. Yup, some people in the night decided to take our watermelon and play with it in the street. It’s a shame that someone would do such a thing, to lack respect for the property of others and choose to waste food in such a way.

Bioactive enclosure
Kai: Bioactive enclosures have become very popular in the pet fish and reptile world. What people might not know is that the idea follows the same rules as does permaculture, vice-versa.
Many have already figured out the system for “Bioactive” chicken coops, a system where instead of having to rake out and disinfect the floors of the coop, you simply provide another layer of living bedding, and previous waste composts naturally, without smells, pests, or bad bacterial overgrowth.
Bioactive and permaculture is one the same.
