1st Monthly Farmers Market in Havelock, NC

So this past Saturday April 6th, we were fortunate enough to participate in the Havelock Farmer's Market and in my opinion it was a complete success. The weather was not the greatest, but people still came out to support and it is good for the local community. I truly hope there is a bigger turn out for the May market. I for one am looking forward to getting some fresh produce, possibly some soap, and maybe some eggs or meat.

There was a good selection of artisans and a couple farmers, and I'm sure there will be even more next month as this was the first one and a lot of other vendors had schedule conflicts, hopefully that will be resolved next month.

Come on out in May, let's make this a great opportunity for locals to shop and sell.

The 2024 Bushcraft, Homestead and Preparedness Expo Recap

A great time was had, many new friends made, and old friends re-united. I thoroughly enjoyed doing the demonstrations, especially with the kids watching and asking such great questions. The event was a great time with so many vendors and instructors. I was honored and blessed to be invited. Another great opportunity came out of this to see my sister. She lives in Texas and I in North Carolina, so we see each other mostly through facetime, texts and phone calls. It was great to spend some time with her, as this was her first outdoorsy experience since we were kids when our dad would take us camping. Needless to say I always enjoyed it. Lots of pictures, and a few folks missing which I was trying to do better at taking pics, but I get so caught up in the moment. But there is always next time.
