i was about to buy one from marshall's for like $12, but want to see if anyone had suggestions. thanks

Oh! Okay, I see what you mean now! Thanks!

Well, like I said, they weren't used for canning, she just bought them and used them like a regular jar I guess. I emptied the jars out into regular containers, but these lids still should not be used? Sorry, if I sound repetitive! I'm just making sure!

Thanks! So these lids should not be reused? I know they're disposable, but can they be recycled (not reused)? It just seems like a waste to throw them out with regular trash.

I have no idea why my mom bought these jars.. she doesn't can, but she used them to put salsa in them. Just put them in there and put them in the fridge. It's only a couple jars she did this with, but can they be used for canning? Also.. where can you get new seals and what do you do with the...

Oh okay! Well, that's not bad. I keep thinking that when you grind up something you get "less" because it's ground up, but flour is light and fluffy while the berries are compact... hahaha Thanks so much!

Does anyone know how much yield for 1lb of wheat berries into flour? Thanks!

I'm going to be planting lettuces, swiss chard, radishes, and fenugreek for now.

What you do is take out all the trays except for the bottom one and put the front cover on. This is what I saw on the Excalibur website. HTH >^.^<

I just found out how that you can make yogurt in a dehydrator last night! And I just got a free dehydrator off Freecycle! Here's how you do it: Just make your yogurt blend. Make sure the dehydrator is between 100 and 120 degrees (no more than 120 or else you'll kill the yogurt bacteria) and...

I just moved back to the San Joaquin valley! I'm looking to network with others in the area and in the Bay Area. My interests are: seeds and gardening vermicomposting rabbits milk goats (I was planning on getting one or some, but need someone to board one/some) leatherworking food preservation...

Lots of people use cloth diapers for their babies and use cloth wipes. These cloth wipes can also be used as washable toilet paper. Basically, get a bucket that you keep a solution in (they have "recipes"), you get a diaper sprayer if it was a bit much, and you put it in a "wet bag" that gets...

There's a woman selling English Angoras in the Bay Area, she's pretty easy to find if you Google it. She has really good prices.

It's pretty bad right now over here.. My husband and I are living with his family right now.. we weren't able to find jobs when we came, so we help out around the house and his sister's baby, so we're not a burden. His stepfather is the only one with a job in the house right now. I'm really glad...

haha that's pretty cool. I'm going to see if it's okay to dig a hole.. >^.^<

Does anyone have or know how to cheaply build a cold frame? I got a book on solar greenhouses, but it's making it sound like it's a lot more expensive that it looks. I might be answering my own question, but is it possible to just build one from pallet wood, black plastic, and plexiglass? Or...

So, I've been researching aquafarming, and it looks pretty easy~! Here's what I posted on my other blog about it: Okay, I've been reading a lot into this..I used to actually want to do this when I was younger, and it's actually a lot easier than I originally thought. One Acre Farm - Where I...

I'm not into hybrids, but what does the white icicle taste like? :P >^.^<

FarmerChick - Do you have extra daikon seeds? I had some Miyashige daikon seeds, but I can't find them and I've been wanting to plant some... ;_; I have edamame seeds if you like that sort of thing, but I also have a bunch of other seeds! >^.^<

Right? I hope I have room too! I completely forgot my cucumbers, squash and melons. I'm going to direct seed my beans, peas and greens, so I don't need to worry about them.. Which issue of Mother Earth? Maybe I could get that article scanned for me, or look it up on their website. I could...
