I think this has been advertized on FB (i don't do FB).
I will be there with beans to give away plus other things. I will gladly give away as much as i possibly can. Please don't be shy to ask. I also hope to bring most of my collection of seeds from past years and such so if i don't...

currently the line runs from eastern Ohio down to Texas but it is an amazingly nasty looking storm i've never seen similar. looks to be heading mostly east. keep a watch out if you are in the path. many of the storms are marked as Tornado Warning or Severe Thunderstorms, but basically i've...
What did you get done recently that feels really good to have done? Or just post whatever feels like a party or celebration about. :)
For me, for sure, pile of old paperwork finally conquered... Big Party Time! :)
Note, this bit of humor is to also encourage me to finish the remaining pile...
It is back on this coming year in a new location (not too far from the previous one).

Hope to see you there! :)
I am planning on attending as a seed vendor, tried to talk Mom into going but she won't...
i've never done a full scientific analysis or taken precise measurements.
so i'm curious as there are a few people here who have a lot of eggs and milk so perhaps you know offhand which amount is good and when it is too much?
i ask because my last two batches of tapioca pudding have come out...
After a two year break it is coming back. I am planning on being there. :) Hope everyone can make it who would like some garden seeds and to learn and have fun.

recently have soaked some feet in water with some added white vinegar (probably can use cider vinegar too if that is all you have). measurements not precise but perhaps a cup to a gallon is about what we've been doing.
after soaking as long as it takes to soften up the plantar warts and...
this is a long post to kick things off about the things that motivated me from the start. :) sorry it got so long. :) questions always welcome of course and comments too. this can be a thread about pretty much anything financial and planning.
growing up on the lean side of the ledger i saw...
what are you aiming for this coming season in terms of Self Sufficiency improvements?
around here i have projects for dealing with some erosion that i'll be looking at, mostly water works i guess is what this would fall under. :)
the rest of the plans are to improve and expand pea plantings...
having saved and dried the squash seeds from this past season they were taking up too much room on the floor sitting there waiting for me to get to them. for my own uses it wouldn't matter if the seeds had some dried up pulp left on them, but to reduce how much space they'd take in storage i...
in thinking about how to get along on minimal resources i keep finding out that nature has pretty much figured out much of this many many years before us.
like the idea that in order to live we need to keep warm. we've lost our fur, built structures, keep them warm, intead of just heating our...
something i try to do as often as possible, reading science fiction as soon as i found out what it was all those years ago, plus fantasy too and being a general science nerd it just seems like something i aim to do even when i'm out in the gardens pondering what will happen to this bit of dirt...
with all the melon and tomato fruits coming in the house to be cut up or processed sometimes we can't help but bring in a few of these flies along with them.
i know they like apple cider vinegar, but to make it work as an effective trap i put in a few drops of liquid soap and then some extra...
yesterday i had to have something fresh from the garden, after this winter and all.
this being early spring one thing i really like to have is some fresh green garlic. it is dug up while the plant is still green and looks pretty much like a green onion, but if you chop it up and eat it fresh...
