Have some in my freezer right now. It is awesome on pasta or mixed with cream cheese. Got the idea after having a party using nasturium leaves stuffed with flavored cheese and finding my girlfriend hiding behind a door with the tray just gobbling them down, so funny. I use garlic, parm,evoo and...

Well folks treatment is completed. I had one girl still yawning and gave her 1/4 cc on a piece of bread yesterday. Hope it wasn't overkill. Others so far look good. Gave 3 18 packs of treatment day eggs to a customer for his dogs, he was happy and one of my customers said he doesn't care he...

I used to sprout arugala and could sniff that smoky perfume for hours. Put on pizza after you cook it, use it as lettuce on a sandwich, excellent on a BLT. Arugala, and goat cheese salad yummy.

I don't routinely worm my chickens but noticed unusual behavior and had a death. When 2 barred rock girls stood at the back door and were yawning and gaping I didn't know what it was but that was what the pullet that died did only once that I witnessed. Thank God for the internet and sites like...

Saved on electric by putting on a sweater and wool socks, I am cold until 80#. Planted 10 tomato starts in 7 year old wall-o-waters for early tomatoes. Didn't call the fence guy back after a quote of $100 a foot to protect from 3 stray dogs. Can buy a lot of bullets and or stand guard for $3000...

Worming is 3 days of 3cc to a gallon of water for 3 days. It is for goats and the bottle says do not slaughter for meat for 6 days after dosing so I imagine 9 days for eggs also. I would think they would be in sync.

Here I sit with 21 eggs on the counter. I am worming with safeguard goat wormer, Is there any reason some animal could not eat these? Maybe find someone with a dog or goat that could use 100 plus eggs until they are safe to consume and sell again. Such a waste.

Grandkids live too far away to visit much unfortunately. Growing new things every year because we moved from Illinois and not as long a season. Since we are in a similiar area I'll tell you what I have had success with if you are interested.

Hey neighbor, mom2bbjandag. I am an older lady with grandchildren, 3 acres, a big garden, a newly planted orchard and 28 chickens. How so you?

I too am midway between Nashville and Memphis. Henry, TN. Moved here 2 years ago been a member but never looked at this area before. So howdy!

I second never buy a new house before you sell the old one, sat with both for 2 years, double bills. Also be careful of relatives in get rich quick schemes that suddenly have found your e mail address after 2 years of being unable to contact you. "Ohio stay at home mom makes $15,000 a month"...

Strawberries! My first attempt at wine coached by one of my egg customers.

I love, love my whey fermented pickles. They are still crispy and delish from last falls cuke production. They taste insanely better than my old recipes. Also love the fermented bean paste and whey fermented saurkraut with garlic. Love fermented got-too-big China Rose radishes shredded. My...

She does cook basic dishes. I wanted to include chipotle powder but not sure she would use it. I am a Penzey addict and grow some of my own. Never thought it would be hard to choose as I make almost everything from scratch and I know not that many young working gals have time. I will include a...

Planted 48 pepper seeds in the house for this years garden. 24 assorted hot and 24 assorted bellish. Also 12 tomato seeds to put in wall-o-waters to get an earlier crop. Pepper prices here are insane! $1 for one green, $1.89 for red, most hots not even available. We love our peppers!

Need to know what you would choose as your twelve must have spices. I am giving my niece a spice rack for her wedding gift and it holds 12 jars which I will be filling. It was a wedding gift to me but I am a 50 spice person so I just put it away. I for sure will do onion and garlic powder...

Last year I had the worst growing pepper and tomato starts. I purchased an organic fertilized potting soil. Everything was stunted and took forever to come out of it. I harvested green tomatoes from the garden letting them ripen inside. This year got my old standby cheap Hyponex potting soil and...

Still have my 20+ year old Sunset Garden book, I am still learning from it. As for potatoes the price here has doubled. I recall from some where an interview with a major potato grower that they won't eat the potatoes they grow commercially because of all the poisons they apply and have a...

Had a devil of a time with pantry moths last year, seems they were coming in in my brown rice and oatmeal. Now those go from shopping bag to freezer for a week. Also made homemade traps by putting brown rice and mule team borax in a tuna can, worked very well set in the back of cabinets. Since...

Kc, I am in Henry, TN northwest corner near Paris. Supposed to be mailing closing papers and the check to get rid of the house today or soon. Trying to do everything over the internet sucks when I am barely able to figure how to print an attachment. Add on that hubby is over the road so have a...
