I came back inside and checked on Cheeks and found out that she's an olive egger. She laid an...

    So I have been trying to get the roosters processed but I ended up tossing them because I wasn't confident enough to allow anyone to eat them considering it took me so long to process one fully. One got away so I thought he would just start stinking up the property but no he's now under my porch...

    I got a spaghetti squash yesterday and picked 2 more today. I'm having spaghetti squash dessert tonight. I picked 2 pumpkins today and it looks like I will get some more for making more bread. I will also have enough squash for desserts.

    What did you do in your garden today?

    I went out yesterday and watered the garden. Picked some more tomatoes and removed the peppers that looked like they were toast. Nothing in my garden this year has really been productive except the pumpkins and vining squash. I did get a decent potato harvest though. I'm going to try to...

    🔋 Can You Make It Through a Week Off-Grid? 🌿

    I had the opportunity and money a few years back to buy an actual wood burning cook stove with ovens. I couldn't get to the town in enough time to buy it 😞. Tomorrow or Friday I have to go pick the 2 pumpkins because they won't last until October. They are already bright orange so some pumpkin...

    🔋 Can You Make It Through a Week Off-Grid? 🌿

    I'm wanting to invest in a wood cook stove and cast iron pots and pans. I would love to be able to cook like that. It's just a way of surviving without depending on the grid.

    🔋 Can You Make It Through a Week Off-Grid? 🌿

    Heating is lighting candles with a mirror behind them to generate heat during a cold spell. For the electric I have a generator but I also have my husband's big truck so I'm covered. Charging phones start vehicle for long enough to get a decent charge. The cold we have a pellet stove that can be...

    I'm supplementing them with powdered goats milk, dry dog food and canned dog food. They eat a lot of food plus their mom is still nursing them also.

    What did you do in your garden today?

    Yes. I planted some bean seeds around the entire area that I planted the corn. I'm going to try to get more eucalyptus debris to put on top because the house we had years ago the horse pasture was amazing for growing corn. Lots of eucalyptus trees.
