April 2015

So, April 2015 was an exciting month for us. We celebrated our 15 year wedding anniversary, went to our first Mother Earth News Fair in Asheville, NC, and planted our garden. We stayed at a really nice B&B in Asheville when we went to the Mother Earth News Fair as an early anniversary celebration. I'm a HUGE fan of Joel Salatin and I found out that he would be speaking at the Mother Earth News Fair - we had never heard of the fair, but I'll go anywhere I can to hear Joel Salatin, so we decided to make a weekend of the fair and celebrate our anniversary too. Turns out the Mother Earth News Fair is RIGHT up our alley! There were SO many workshops and talks that we were interested in that we had to narrow it down because we could only do so much each day. This will definitely be our first Fair of many more. And of course Joel Salatin was awesome - we actually got up super early so we could check out of the B&B and get to the Fair on Sunday for a live chicken processing demo with Joel Salatin. Yes, we got up early on a Sunday to watch chickens be killed and processed by Joel Salatin! That is how much I love this man! The Fair overall was so much fun and we really learned a lot and it definitely inspired us to get our own garden going when we got back home. Here are our pictures from a very busy and fun April:
