Tomorrow will be a garden work day! We are opening it up to the public. There isn't a specific alloted amount of time to be here. Help as much as you can! We'd appreciate what you can do!
The back half, as you can see needs the weeds pulled. For future reference, the garden will be open to some public consumption. You're helping prepare for your own harvest.
Bring a lunch to eat! We will start at 9 and be done at 3.

Fort Loudoun PA’s bake oven overhaul/makeover finished today!

Clay daub was mixed by feet and applied by hand to both repair and add another 3 inches of insulation for baking.

Bakers take note that these two never have to pay for fresh baked bread!

Check out the bake oven in action during the upcoming Fort Loudoun Market Fair June 19-21!

Agape Christian Homeschool Organization visited our Fort yesterday for a field trip! They were K-12 students! We are grateful for these photos taken by the visitors! We were so busy with our stations, that there wasn't any room for playing photographer! They also braved the rain showers that were a constant issue! We very much enjoyed them coming to learn about Fort life as a soldier!
