We had a great time this weekend with family visiting us up in the Catskills. And I also got some mulch put down in the front garden! Thanks for all your help 🙌🏼

Y’all I am ready to be done with this lowlands area in the meadow 😂 I think I finally put the last plant in the ground today, but I make no promises 🤪💁🏻‍♀️ Can’t wait to see the monarchs enjoying the milkweed!!

Quick progress video from a couple of weekends ago. Now that my has arrived I’ll get to add that to the area this week! I keep having to remind myself that so many of the things I’ve planted will soon be blooming. Right now everything just looks like a million shades of brown and green 😂

Got our first delivery of wood chips last weekend, and I’ve got a long list of ways to use it! It was too hot to start moving it around that day, and now it’s pouring rain all weekend 😂 but never fear, mulch projects are coming soon!

Setting up a tent for the first time can feel like one of those camping things everyone - but you - already knows how to do.

But no need to panic. You’ve got this!

Here are our tips for setting up your tent like a pro… and it starts before you take the tent out of the bag:

🏕️ Pick slightly higher ground so rainwater drains away
🌾 Avoid tall grass if you don’t want extra bugs
🌳 Look up before setting up under trees - no dead limbs!
💨 Stake your tent down, even if the weather seems calm
🌧️ Put the rainfly on before you go to sleep

PLUS We put together a beginner-friendly blog post guide to setting up a tent for the first time — including what to look for in a campsite, how to avoid common mistakes, and why a ground tarp can actually make things worse if it’s set up wrong.

And if you’re renting gear from Basecamp Brooklyn, we make it even easier: we clean and check the gear before it goes out, and we send you a setup video so you know exactly what to do when you get to camp.

Read the full guide on the blog: How to Set Up a Tent for the First Time (link in bio 🙌🏼)

Because once the tent is up, the best part begins. 🏕️😎

Phew! Made it one week with no deer browsing! I’m still going to use the Deer Defeat Spray for good measure, but what a relief! 😅

What’s my favorite thing about spring, you ask? Looking at all our beautiful apple trees in bloom while I plant new additions to the garden, of course! We just brought home a beautiful haul of 🤞 plants and flowers. Can’t wait to get these cuties in the ground!

Another day of gardening turned into a side quest 😂 But we’ve been needing to address the water drainage at the bottom of our grasslands ever since the heavy machinery tore up this area last year. So no time like the present! Just need some rocks to toss in this little dry creek bed, and we’ll have a nice edge to this soon to be garden bed, plus a much needed water runoff 💪🏼🪏👩🏻‍🌾

This is what it looks like when you’re so old that making a snow angel becomes dangerous to your health 😆 Thanks and for cheering me on!

With all the rain we’ve had this spring, the bugs have been next level this year. Whether you’re camping in the Catskills or just chilling at a music festival, mosquitoes, ticks, and flies are showing up everywhere.

We’ve been there — arriving at a beautiful campsite only to spend the whole evening swatting at bugs. So this summer, we’re determined to get ahead of those pesky camp invaders. We wrote up a quick guide (mostly as a reminder to ourselves!) and thought you might want it too:

👉 How to Create a No-Bug Zone at Your Campsite (Naturally!) https://www.basecampbrooklyn.com/blog/natural-bug-free-camping-tips

Inside, you’ll find:

🌲Natural ways to repel bugs without harsh chemicals
🌲The gear we swear by (including the tool every camper should pack for ticks)
🌲A DIY essential oil spray that all our friends swear by
🌲Smart tips for staying bite-free even at dusk (yes, you can still enjoy the fire)

Because nothing should stand between you and the joy of being outside — especially not some hungry mosquitoes.
