I celebrate this country! Unapologetically! #250years #HappyBirthdayUSA #usa #proudtobeanamerican

🪻 Limited Edition: The Holstein House Lavender Cookie Experience 🪻 Summer has fully arrived in the Kanawha Valley, and our permaculture garden is officially putting on a show! The culinary lavender on the property is in peak bloom, which means our kitchen is filling with the incredible aroma of fresh-baked, scratch-made lavender cookies. Delicate, buttery, and infused with blossoms harvested right outside our door, they are the ultimate sweet pairing for a warm cup of morning tea or coffee. Because our lavender harvest is small and entirely dependent on the summer blooming season, these homemade treats are a highly limited-time luxury. To celebrate the harvest, we are reserving these garden-fresh cookies as an exclusive perk for guests who book directly with us. Skip the third-party booking apps, secure your summer road trip or weekend getaway on our official website, and taste true West Virginia hospitality while the blossoms last! ✨ Rooms are limited, and so is the lavender bloom! ✨ 👇 Click the link in the comment below to view our live calendar and claim your direct-booking harvest perk. #nostr #grownostr #cookies #lavender #WV #USA #travel #bnb

Gathered about 1/2 cup of berries this morning off the wild backyard blackberry bush in my backyard. #homesteadlife #microhomestead #holsteinhouse #bnb #wv #grownostr #nostr

Another beautiful morning! I guess the blackberries must be awesome. The birds are gobbling them up. I do have some covering over the thornless one but the little birds must be able to get through. The wild bush needs cover. I managed a large handful. They will be enough for some pancakes or muffins. #blackberries #Wednesday #holsteinhouse #bnb #travel #WV #USA #nostr #grownostr

Raccoon rescue this morning. I hope the little guy finds his way back to momma. I also hope he doesn’t find his way into a live trap later. I got him freed but the little s**t wasn’t appreciative. LOL #homesteading #chicken #raccoon #wv #usa #nostr #grownostr

Today we had to say goodbye to Betty White Holstein, our Boxer. Betty was diagnosed with mast cell carcinoma last June. In January we had to put her on a chemotherapy pill. The last two weeks she went downhill fast. We want to thank Kindred Journey Veterinary End-of-Life Care Dr. Sierra for the compassionate attention she gave Betty. And thanks to those of you in Nostrland who sent up prayers for us. They do help and are appreciated. #nostr #grownostr #boxermom #boxers
