Between Christmas and Jan 4 we have even more new friendly fowl, one duckling and several baby chicks. We are hoping for more ducks very soon. One of our Silkie hens has shown signs of being broody gathering a large clutch of eggs. She sat on eggs that were hers and some others from other chicks and ducks too. We took all the eggs that weren’t hers which left a good number for her to manage. #babychicks #babychicksofinstagram #chickensofinstagram #chickens #silkiechickens #silkiechickensofinstagram #incubator #embryology #friendlyfowl #friendlyfowlfarm #hipcamp #hipcamphosts #raisingchickens #localhens #farmanimals #poules #hänchen #pollitos #ducklings #babyduck https://www.instagram.com/p/CJqo5CvBxZN/?igshid=jkb7hzq6z6ks

It’s been a busy and exciting day. We watched the inauguration and got several jobs done too. Tony helped me move chicks and ducks from one brooder to another and give the brooder container a good clean. The old litter was placed into our raised bed and mixed in with the new leaf debris from the park cleaning Monday. The friendly fowl are allowed to go in the raised beds to help with the composting. The chicks and ducks from one brooder were moved to one with a drip waterer made from an empty creamer jug, they are adjusted. The drip system keeps the container cleaner, especially from the mess ducks are known to make. Most of today’s chores invoked caring for animals though Tony delivered pies he baked and I planted more seeds. Tony’s sweet potato pies are the best ever! More chores tomorrow of course. #farmlife #farmchores #chickens #babychicks #babyducks #ducklings #ducklingsofinstagram #brooder #canards #poultry #backyardpoultry #inauguration #history #sowseeds #seedsofhope #friendlyfowlfarm #friendlyfowl #hipcamphosts #hipcamp https://www.instagram.com/p/CKSxO4jhmWR/?igshid=1agx8g2xbovzi

Our two youngest ducklings, a Khaki Campbell and a Pekin. They love the attention they’ve received from me doting over them. They hatched within a day of each other and are currently the only occupants in the “just hatched” brooder. We look forward to more ducklings soon! #ducklings #ducksofinstagram #babyducks #pekinducks #khakicampbell #friendlyfowl #friendlyfowlfarm #waterfowl #fowl #farmanimals #hipcamphosts #hipcamp #weloveducks #homestead #farm #animalhusbandry (at Morning Glory Homestead) https://www.instagram.com/p/CKPTJDXBaCu/?igshid=fxsw4sty3mx3

There’s baking going on! Days one and two of baking for our holiday packages and individual items. There’s dough being made, the yeast is proofing, the shaping and actual bake followed by packaging. Tony bakes cinnamon rolls for us as we worked. In photos 1 and 2 you can see cinnamon rolls without icing but one is topped with toasted pecans. A roll with the coffee was excellent. Photo 4 is a pan of 1 dozen rolls ready for their second rising. They are in the frig until time to bake. It’s so hard to resist all the goodies around like that #sweetpotatopie . Our campers ordered loaves of bread that went out to them this morning and we’re baking for the orders to be picked up today. We will do more tomorrow for the Wednesday orders that include giveaways thanks to the donations that are coming in to support our community members. Thank you all so much. Contact us by 5:00 pm today to get an order for Wednesday or make a donation for a delivery to community members in need! #camping #hipcamp #hipcamphosts #hipcampescape #cinnamonrolls #baking #bakebread #rosemaryoliveoilbread #farmtotable #farmtofork #veteranowned #armyvet #veteranfarmer #womanfarmer #gullahgeechee #gullah #familyfarm #holidaymeals #christmas #cooking #mealprep #farmfresh #helpothers (at Morning Glory Homestead) https://www.instagram.com/p/CJG9_fChF2c/?igshid=152yj9g1snqid

Big day today y’all. Tony and a friend processed 14 chickens and 3 ducks. What a day! My job was to take care of the regular chores and be supportive. I did weigh and label the birds then put them away for the farm stand Monday and Tuesday and filling orders. There ten more chickens that can be processed any day so 14 isn’t all available. Orders are coming in for just about everything. The ducks are already spoken. Chickens can be purchased in a package or separately. Email or call to place order. #producepackage #farmstand #pastureraised #pasturedpoultry #pasturedchicken #duck #pekingduck #holidaymeal #christmas #christmasdinner #farmlife #eatlocal #localfood #farmtotable #hipcamp #hipcamphosts #ruralamerica #veteranownedbusiness #womenwhofarm #goodfood (at Morning Glory Homestead) https://www.instagram.com/p/CJAbxNhhDLK/?igshid=z22lzunsakj2

Some our #friendlyfowl enjoying the property. There are two remaining adult male turkeys and a couple of young females. While sitting and visiting with the goats a number of fowl came close. The Royal palm mixed turkey, Easter egger hen, Delaware rooster and mixed Delaware hen. The ducks didn’t come close today, they were busy foraging. #farmanimals #farmanimalsofinstagram #friendlyfowl #hipcamp #hipcamphosts #chickens #ducks #turkeys #turkeysofinstagram #chickensofinstagram #hens #hensofinstagram #roostersofinstagram #rooster #royalpalmturkey #womenwhofarm #veteranfarmer #sclowcountry (at Morning Glory Homestead) https://www.instagram.com/p/CIzsKUohpQT/?igshid=10zwx6vn0qmcg

Hey friends we are so excited about this upcoming Memorial Day/Decoration Day event. One of the reasons is that Anthony M Jones will be dressed as a United States Colored Troops serviceman. His uniform is in the mail!!! My daughter Meagan left three dresses she wore during her time working in the historical tour industry and I’m wearing one. So if you’d like to see what we’ll look like as we pay tribute to the Gullah servicemen buried locally, join us for the event next Saturday. Details are in the photos. See you around the campfire! #UnitedStatesColoredTroops #USCT #CivilWar #USHistory Quote from BlockadeRunner.com “During the American Civil War 178,975 men of color served as United States Colored Troops. Their uniforms and accouterments were the same basic uniform as their white counterparts. The enlisted men were issued white cotton shirts, white cotton drawers, cotton or wool socks, sky blue wool pants, a navy blue 4 button wool sack coat or in some cases a 9 button navy blue wool frock coat with sky blue piping. Foot wear was the leather brogan. Head gear consisted of a navy blue kepi or forage cap also known as a bummer. On rare occasion the tall black Hardee hat may have been issued. Black tarred haversacks along with a canteen, canteen covers varied in color... There was nothing about their dress to distinguish them from officers of any other regiment. Weapons and accouterments would also be the same as any other regiment. Springfield rifles with 1855 style leather gear until late war when the 1864 style leather would be seen, but not exclusively in the field.” Did you know this? Charlotte Forten Grimké wrote in her diary about the uniform of the United States Colored Troops at CampSaxton during the Emancipation celebration. “There were the black soldiers, in their blue coats and scarlet pants...” #campfiresupper #campfire #gullahgeechee #usctroops #unionarmy #military #militaryuniform #civilwar #history #hipcampers #hipcamphost #historyreenactment #militaryhistory #beaufortsc #beaufortdistrict #portroyalsc #campsaxton (at Morning Glory Homestead) https://www.instagram.com/p/CPEjsjKh_gF/?utm_medium=tumblr

Tomorrow evening we we gather with guests under the boughs of live oaks, tall pines and magnificent magnolias to sit around fires , partake of a traditional Gullah meal and pay tribute to those servicemen who served in the United States Colored Troops and the Montfort Point Marines. We will tell their stories, sing songs from their time and enjoy our surroundings. The menu will feature dishes prepared with the produce from our field and other local and regional farms. We will celebrate Gullah food traditions and those influenced by the late Chef Edna Lewis. Vegetarian dishes will be available. There are a few places remaining around our campfires.

We had a great time sitting around the campfire tonight with a camper. We sang a few songs, 500 Miles, Puff the Magic Dragon, Where Have All the Flowers Gone, If I Had a Hammer, This Land is Your Land, Ole Stewball, and Country Roads. We roasted hotdogs and had great conversations. What a great way to get to know people! #camping #campinglife #campfire #campfires #campfirestories #campfiresong #camphospitality #hospitality #outdoors #campingtrip #camphostlife #camphost #gettingtoknowyou #singtogether #sing #guitar #peterpaulandmary #johndenver #hedywest #music #songs #folksong #folksongs #singtogether #hipcamp #hipcamphosts (at Morning Glory Homestead) https://www.instagram.com/p/CFWAbOPlw-D/?igshid=1b615v1n9gxhy
