Today is Imperfectly Happy’s 4th Blogiversary – 4 years since I started a blog about my backyard homestead. It is just amazing to me. I love this blog more today than I could have ever imagined. I love connecting with my readers and sharing knowledge (I got the hard way).
I’ll be honest, when I started Imperfectly Happy 4 years ago, I really didn’t have a vision for it. I just wanted to share what I was doing without annoying my friends and family on Facebook. 😉 But over the years it has become a place I share my ideas, my experience, a good DIY, a recipe; in short it has been part of my passion for homesteading.
I cannot thank you all enough for visiting the blog, commenting your thoughts, following me on various social media, etc.; some of you have been here from the beginning! Â Imperfectly Happy and it’s readers have become part of my life in a way I cannot fully express; but I am so thankful for you!
The future looks bright and I look forward to celebrating 10, 15 even 20 years with you! I have more plans than I have time but be on the lookout for new and exciting things on the site!

I love growing tomatoes!
I can’t seem to comment oon the vegetable, but I love growing cucumbers. Thank you for all you do!!
I love growing peas!
Tomatoes because it’s this big spot of red on super green vines! I can’t believe it’s been 4 years. Seems more like 2. Congrats!!!!
Congratulations on 4 years of helping and teaching us as much as you have!
My favorite vegetable is potatoes!
Favorite veggies are asparagus. Because I love to eat them, but also because they are perennial. Do the work to start them off well, and reap the rewards for years.
PEPPERS
I planted banana squash this year and they are flowering! However I plant tomatoes every year so those would be my favoite
Slowly learning self-reliance…your blog is VERY helpful (and fun to read)!
Congratulations on your 4 year anniversary!
I have to say I love my tomatoes!!
I love to grow cantaloupe and watermelons, but alas I am a potato farmer, it is the only thing I can get to grow well, until I get my planter boxes built at which time I will have all kinds of favorites to grow then lol
Congratulations! 4 years is Awesome! So glad I found you, maybe one day my blog will be as cool as your is.
I’ve seen your blog – you’re doing great!
My favorite vegetables to grow are tomato’s. Like trying all the different varieties.
My favorite vegetable to grow is carrots. But, I can’t wait to try potatoes.
The vegetable I HAVE to grow would be tomatoes because the flavor of homegrown tomatoes just can’t be matched but my favourites to grow are kale and potatoes because they grow so abundantly with so little care.
I love growing spaghetti squash along with lots of other goodies in the garden.
I love tomatoes. Purple Krim are the favorite around here.
Thank you Tiffany for all you do for us. Your variety of interests and your unflagging humor are indicators (to me, anyway) of a truly helping heart!! Coffee up!!
Thank you Linda <3
My favorite garden vegetable is dandelions! Food for the bees and me, medicine, and those sunny faces! The best part of gardening!!
Chard is my favorite, but I cannot exclude tomatoes. I grow them every year.
Congrats on your 4 yr anniversary!
Oops, my favorite veggie would be tomato, though I grow alot of medicinal herbs too!
4 years, awesome!! We love our cherry tomatoes and strawberries. Yes, technically, strawberries aren’t a veggie, but lil man loves to pick both and he’d eat them right off the vine if I wasn’t watching.
