You folks are speaking a different language. Pluck? Pygora, and rovinģ. I love all the cool creations you have all posted!

For real?!? I bought a zebra print bolt remnant many years ago on impulse but haven't known what on earth to do with it. This is too funny. I will have to do something to try it.

It might be a good idea to learn how to use cloth diapers now, before shtf. Also, I have become leery of plastic and other mysterious chemicals in modern products. It can be absorbed by our skin. Of course, it can be difficult or impossible to eliminate plastics from our homes. Still, every bit...

We made a pop door in the side of the coop that faced the goat pens and started letting the chickens out into the goat yard in the morning. So now, we have 2 enclosed, but separate areas for the chickens. We can rotate the chickens in these areas, kind of like pasture rotation, and let them...

We don't use chemicals here, either. I had barn flies tormenting my poor goats a few years back. They bite and it REALLY hurts. The flies, not the goats lol. We started turning in the chickens into the goat yard, and now there are way fewer biting flies. I wish i could find a natural solution...

I try to buy local but the closest feed store is 16 miles from here. The closest town is 8 miles. Small, expensive grocery store, so I usually drive the 23 miles to the nearest town that has grocery stores, feed, and best of all-my Mom. Other than feed, farm supplies, gasoline, groceries, and...

I would have to agree with Britesea. It would be good a long time.

Actually it was -35 that day. Scared me because the power was out for only 12 hours.

I'm not sure if this winter will be bad, but we're getting heating pellets for our stove, and the propane tank is full. Also have small propane heaters and fuel for them. Ever since the 12-hour power outage in January of 2019 when temps here sank to -28, I get concerned.

I'm not on this forum often, but I just want to let you know that I'm sending prayers for you during this dark time.

Thank you, Crealcritter!

I guess it would help you guys if I remember the photo:oops:

This shrub grows along my road and I am going crazy trying to identify it! It's an unassuming and plain shrub about 6 feet tall, growing along the road at the edge of a forested area near a lake. The photo shows what I assume is a seed capsule or dried flower or fruit. It sort of reminds me of...

Took Beau and Luke, our little buckling goats, with me to the garden. They were really enjoying themselves! Of course they had to find the asparagus, so I took them back to their pen. Husband is making raised beds using pallets we got a few weeks ago for free. So far he's made 4 of them. We're...

Thank you for sharing your song with us! Many of us need hope. In your song I hear a spiritual tone of guidance for our lives; that there is a light for us to walk by as we navigate through this darkness over our beloved nation.

Although i didnt notice anything rude or offensive from you, not with monk's bread beer, but been there, and done that! Give yourself a break, everyone is allowed to let their hair down once in a while!

Merry Christmas to all of you and yes to a better new year!

I How about I trade you some lambsquarters for lambsquarters!😄

We're saving seed from winter squash and pumpkins. Also saved seed from several wild plants we forage, including ramps, pigweed, lambsquarters, etc. Probably gonna need a bigger storage container😁
