#homesteadchallenge. Cicadias! Everywhere. The 14 year cycle has brought millions of cicadas out in Tennessee. Here I am, working to live off the land I live on by growing or foraging as much of my food as possible.

Did you know these little critters come is swarms because every thing loves to eat them. So… I went foraging. Easily caught 4 in 5 mins, froze them (to humanely kill them) and cooked them up in an air fryer. They tasted outstanding and are full of protein and good fats. They pair well with the strawberries that are coming in too. Maybe I’ll start selling them for sats…
