I recently made a #waxedcanvas #vest for cheap! Just 4 oz of beeswax, 4 oz of paraffin wax, and 2 oz of boiled linseed oil.
In today's blog post we outline our frost-protected shallow foundation that saves on resources.
Today I did the last disking of the field (for weed control), and planted #mariswidgeon and #banatka #wheat, #rye, and an experimental winter #barley. You can check out our YouTube page for a full home grain planting tutorial.
Today was our third annual, apple-picking, member event! With the drought, the apples weren't as juicy as usual, but the yield was good and folks had fun!
No #dailyupdate this week due to a day off, a day sick, and prepping for this weekend's member event: #apple picking and #cider making. Got this shredder online just in time.
Another #dailyupdate! I would have gotten away with it if it wasn't for this rain.
