When it comes to canning supplies the words To much is not enough comes to mind.

Just saw a announcement that McMurray hatchery want be shipping some of their chicks due to avian flu . They are having to destroy some of their breed lines and will need these chicks to repopulate their flocks.

Can that atv replicate it self with a younger version of its self .

We don't use a lot of milk so don't need a large dairy animal like a cow or goat. But there just don't seem to be any dairy rabbits out there.

Another way to look at shortages. I do some volunteer work with a food giveaway ministery . We did 2 last week and one today . That covers 3 different county's . Today while talking with the leader he said that the Second Harvest warehouse is down to half its normal level on dry and can goods...

A rear bagger mower and a drying rack does wonders for free rabbit hay.

It's not what we harvest . It's how much is exported or imported that makes for the shortages.

I love mine. Leave the ring a little loose in the canner then tighten down after it comes out . My original test jars are still sealed 9 years later. Normally would only use these on high use items where the jar gets used every year.

My new fences are interesting. Have been able to lay my hands on a slow but stead supply of plastic pallets. So my fence is 40 inches tall and 8 feet between post . I screw the pallets together with treated lumber at the joints. Sorry I don't do pics.

All I will say about dinner is that Truly my goose is cooked.

Ok sorry for delay . Today was a travel day . 5 pounds of juice tart apples 1 cup apple cider or water About 2 1/2 cups sugar white or brown 1/2 tsp ground cinnamon 1/2 tsp ground cloves 1/4 tsp ground nutmeh Remove bless and core apples and then cut into 8ths. Put apples and cider in kettle...

The one I use is in Putting Food By . I gave it to someone in Rebel Canners MEWE earlier this week . Will look it back up for you later today.

Well being 100% off grid I don't use a slow cooker unless you count the fartherist point on the wood cook stove from the firebox.

Wait you mean putting a shallow pan of tomato sauce in my smoke house is the wrong technique.

Fair warning . Don't plant to many . The USDA has a $1,000,000 bar on production.
