About the Harperstead
Hello and welcome! I’m , Merryrose , chief cook and bottle washer, duck wrangler and gardener at the Harperstead. I’m a wife and mother of a toddler, and a homesteader in the country wannabe . For now, we are in town, but we are making the best of things. Doesn’t Joel Salatin say, “what are you doing NOW??” So this is what we are doing NOW . So we’ll be ready if we ever, you know , make it to the country.
Fun facts…. Before I got married I was a celtic harpist and did gigs in senior living dining rooms and the like . Then I got married to my husban with the last name of Harper . How cool is that? Of course ,since that time, I’ve had like.. zero time to play but I think I’m still considered a harpist…with the name of Harper . I also played and taught bluegrass banjo. My toddler, for some reason, is not a fan and makes me put it away whenever I try to pull it out.
This blog is a window into my world – a place where I share my experiences, triumphs, and challenges as I navigate the rewarding path of life on the Harperstead.
