did you grow them in towers? The catalog mentions using raised beds, but raised is subjective. A hill would still be raised imho.
Very interested in this breed, not sure what I can trade for them.So here's my deal. I've got Columbian Rocks and they're a good dual purpose line. If anyone would like to buy or trade for hatching eggs I'm open to the offer. They've just started laying. At least four of the hens have. I've got six and will be hatching more. I've offered them all forsale in CL but no one wanted to pay my price. I really hate when folks are no shows, don't you?
Now things you might have that I can use are, cuttings from fruit bearing plants, or fruit bearing plants, seeds, yarns, or hatching eggs of something I don't have, (not silkies, they are NOT real chickens but aliens from another planet) We have done a Granny Square swap for all those ladies and gents that crochet or knit.
might be a good opportunity to see if he would barter for some or all of the price!I decided to skip the spuds next year. There is a farm only a few miles from me who grows and sells the most wonderful potatoes of all sorts. I don't feel it necessary to take business from him just so I can save few dollars. He can grow the spuds for me.
great idea!! I could see if he wants something I grow and just plant extra. Or, I could talk to him about maybe eggs for spuds over winter. He could have fresh eggs I could have fresh spuds. Thank you. I love barter system. It makes for less stress and less greed. More food to go around and less hungry people. "Oh you need food, well I need my yard mowed. I don't have cash but I can make a meal to send with you to your family ". Or something along those lines anyhow. Plus there would be less people taking advantage of others.
