We're planting carrots, radish, beets and turnips for our rabbits.. We are figuring on about 2000sq foot of garden just for growing out our summer meat needs.. I hope we planned for enough..Bubblingbrooks said:Someday we will grow enough fodder root crops, to have LOTS saved for the next summer so we can grow up a couple pigs. Need to figure out how much that would be though. Hoping to grow enough for the goats and chickens this year.
I think we need to build the smoke house first though.
If I can figure out a way to gather and get our acornsto you, you're welcome to them Free. We have tons of oak trees here!freemotion said:Don't forget to glean. My current pigs are working on leftover acorns from last year's pigs. This fall we will be getting many, many more acorns and storing them in a big pile in the middle of the pig pasture. Learned this technique totally by accident. The squirrels can only manage to take so many!
