Does anyone know a good method of getting rid of corns that actually works? The ones on the bottom of my SO's foot are really starting to hurt him to the point he can't walk around without something on his feet for the padding. Any suggestions would be helpful. Also, any good suggestions for...

I know..crazy right? I enjoy potatoes and all but they're just so cheap! Truly, I wouldn't know a potato farm if I saw it.

I'm new to gardening, and it will soon be my roommates second season gardening, and we're talking about using as much as the usable yard as possible. We don't necessarily want to grow just potatoes and carrots etc that are so cheap to buy they aren't totally worth growing unless we eat a lot of...

That is so beyond helpful. Thank you so much!!!

I must admit I didn't read the entire mother earth article. My housemate and I are much more the "figure it out" kind of people. I read most of it, didn't know what Alum was or was used for, had salt, so we went to town. Good to know its something that I need to finish the process. Know what...

Hi! I live on a small "urban farm" (I use the term incredibly loosely) and have two small dogs (schnauzer/jack Russell mix) that one (whom seems to have a bit of mutt in him as well) and I decided to get some chickens. I have no idea what kind of chickens...i just wanted my own eggs. Since I've...

I'm not sure where else to post this, since I'm new to this whole idea of self sustainability, and frugality. Anyway, my roommate and I got some rabbits for free from a local guy "Farmer Bob" we got them just before New Years, and to date three of the original seven have died. We're sure they...
