Building Community the Fun Way – Winter Shenanigans & Barndo Fixes

Winter on the homestead isn’t just about hard work—it’s about making the most of the season with some good old-fashioned fun! ❄️ From high-speed sledding behind the Kawasaki (with a mostly safe setup) to building snowmen and making snow angels, we put our homestead creativity to the test. But, of course, it wouldn’t be a true homesteading day without tackling some DIY fixes!

In between the laughs and wipeouts, we got down to business sealing up a roof vent to keep the heat in and save on firewood. And just when we thought we were done, a rogue Christmas decoration decided to call it quits—so naturally, we had to fix that too!
