Hugs to you and wife, and prayer for you both to feel God's comfort at this time. Watching your spouse suffer is a very difficult thing. Do you have a support team in place?

Congrats. good catch.

My most humble apologies.

I added BE from Cackle last spring. They were slow to mature, but I like the personalities. Nice looking birds, also.

My SIL bought me a book: Foraging New England. Poking through it tonight, I identified some plants that will be making it into my spring meals.

I've had cat tails. They are pretty good. Dandelion greens are also tasty. I've had dandelion wine, though never made it. Hoping that my Wine Cap mushrooms will survive the winter and provide me with a crop in the spring. I made some spore prints from some overgrown shrooms, and hope I can...

How much power does your solar generate?

68 is not warm enough for someone with your wife's issues. Any way you can jack that heat up a degree or two more? Electric throws will help, but she's probably not generating enough of her own heat. Perhaps you'll have to help her with that! Maybe you need to get her a couple more cats.

RH, Lifting you and your wife up in prayer. Being cold is tough. Are you using enough heat? I'm lugging a lot more fire wood these days.

Take your time to do it right, and be sure you build a proper footing, putting that below the frost line. In the mean time, you can build a hay bale cold frame which should keep you in fresh veggies just about all winter long.

Have you had much experience with fish tanks? While, on the surface (pun intended) aquaponics sounds like it would be easy, there is a vast difference between the theory, and the actuality. It takes a lot of intervention to monitor water quality. Something as simple as a plugged filter, or a...

My limited understanding is that prion diseases can not even be destroyed by cooking. Have worked with a CJD patient and it was a very sad process to watch.

Lovely photo, RH. Scary about the CWD.

THat's a steam canner. Beekissed uses one a lot. I've never used one. I know that when I make apple sauce I don't put much water in it, so when the sauce gets into the jars, there's really no way to get rid of the tiny bubbles that are suspended in the sauce. I've noticed that even...

Fickle trees! I planted 2 Cornelian cherries in May. They looked like they were dying. I checked on them today, and both are loaded with big fat buds. I hope they are not planning to set out new leaves before spring! It would be sweet if they both survive the winter.

Are you sure it's not aphid damage? Could be the N or P level was too high.

Beaver carry some pretty severe diseases also. A fellow I know traps and does Taxidermy. got very sick from a beaver borne disease. Don't know if it's one of those forever diseases or not.

coon lure? I need to put out a trap, see if any visitors wanna play. Found a drowned baby rat today. Gotta deal with that. Way too many places around here for rats to hole up.

I do hope you catch the varmint. What did you bait it with? Cool weather here. I should be out prepping the green house for planting.
