    Where is Farmerchick??

    Thanks for posting Karen! I know how hectic things can get just on my small scale farm, so I know you are busy with all you have. My husband has been having some health issues himself and that is one reason I had been following Tony's progress. We have about figured out that my hubby may have...

    Where is Farmerchick??

    I have not been on much lately but checked in on this site a couple of days ago and have not seen any recent posts from Karen. Is she ok? I had been following her thread about her husband's medical problems and now I don't even see her journal listed. Just concerned, Sherry in Ga

    Mushroom farming

    I bought two ****ake mushroom logs to give as Christmas gifts this year. One of the girls I gave one to said they are delicious. From what I read, they only produce about 2 rounds or cycles before they are done but it is still a pretty interesting and unique gift for $20 a log. Wish I had gotten...

    Well my soapmaking supplies came in today! I am still going to wait until Friday to make it though. Today was a rough day, Wednesdays always are. All I could do when I got home was lay on the couch for about 1/2 an hour before having to do the feeding and milking around here. On Wednesdays I...

    Strawberries

    Does anyone on here grow strawberries and have good luck with them? I have planted some here and there but never really put in enough to do anything with. I am now thinking of ordering about 50 of the everbearing. Are those as good at producing as the others that all come in at one time? Sherry...

    APPLE CIDER VINEGAR

    I was taking ACV everyday but for some reason got out of the habit of it. I really need to get back to it too. I have a cheap juicer and usually juice an apple, carrot and some cabbage and add the ACV to that. Not bad at all! The juice is really good for you too. I am going to look for the...

    What are your SS goals for 2009?

    My husband needs to have every light in the house on. I constantly go behind him turning off lights, tv, etc. Right now the tv is blaring and he is upstairs on the computer. The man doesn't have a frugal bone in his body. I have given up on trying to get the electric bill down. Oh well, if that...

    Oh, I forgot to tell about the parrots! Chico is a blue front amazon that is about the same age as the oldest monkey. We got him back in '84. The other one is a feather plucking African Grey that one of my clients gave me due to his feather plucking ways. Joey, the grey is probably 12 years old...

    We used to have a reptile exhibit back in the early 80's and as a result of that I came across a copy of Animal Finder's Guide and they were advertising monkeys for sale among other exotic animals and reptiles. I had wanted a monkey since I was a child after seeing some at a local department...
