Homestead Happiness is... A competition with up to 15 SBD in prizes
After writing my article yesterday Homestead Happiness is... eating a meal you have grown / reared yourself and reading the positive comments it gave me an idea!
I thought it would be neat to find out what Homestead Happiness means for other homesteaders and preppers.
As I was lucky enough to be given a Curie boost the other day with my Pennsif's Progress - The Days are Numbered // Day 972 : Time flies with a polytunnel post (thank you gah). I have a few SBD to spare so I thought it would be extra neat to make a little competition out of this idea with some SBD’s as prizes.
All you have to do to enter is make a post about what Homestead Happiness means for you.
It hasn’t got to be a thousand word essay but enough to explain what gives you Homestead Happiness and why. The more of the story behind it the better. And a few pictures will be great too if you have them.
I will be judging the winner(s) on interest, creativity, humour, originality, unusualness, good vibes and gut feeling.
The prize pool will be up to 15 SBD depending on the number of entries.
I will chose the winner after the competition closes at midnight UK time on Tuesday 1 August.
