    Forage, Compost, Fodder, and Low-cost food options for a flock of five to eight on 2000 square feet

    Check out that book I posted. Some inventive ideas there, including high tunnels that can be moved on tracks so that you can move them along to protect crops as needed. While a green house with glass panels would be fantastic, you can put up an 8 x 8 CP green house for around $100, including...

    Forage, Compost, Fodder, and Low-cost food options for a flock of five to eight on 2000 square feet

    Do you have a green house? Or use cold frames? If not, I suggest that you implement those options. I have a CP green house, and have used hay bale cold frames in the garden. They allow me to have fresh salads until mid December. Then the green house greens start producing again in late Feb...

    Interesting about the #4 being more palatable. Is it sterile, like the 14? My birds really aren't interested in it, but I've planted it in my orchard to use as green compost. Have you looked into Back to Eden Gardening? There's a neat video on the concept if you do a google search. I'm...

    Bocking #4 and not #14? Care to elaborate on your decision re: that choice? Care to put your general location in your profile? It will help immensely with appropriate communication. Considered Siberian Pea tree/shrub? Sowing white or red clover in their forage area? How bout plums, service...
