Possible future topics:
Buy-local Philosophy
Composting *Feels the readers' excitement. woo.*
Timber Framing: multi-generational agrarianism
Rotational Grazing
100% Grass-fed Dairying
Milk Stanchions
Stay tuned, because I will likely scrap all of these topics and blog about something totally different.
Anyhow, here is what's been going on in the life of this farmer:
- Garden prep: tilling, compost hauling, soil blocks.
- House construction: trim, siding, caulking *oh yeah*
- Timber frame construction: cutting, raising
- Disassembling timber frame "temporary" bracing: Ring-shank nails + seasoned white oak = disaster.
- Cross fencing dairy pasture: hopefully this will maximize chore efficiency
- Cleaning up the shop: still looks like a tool-bomb went off.
- Getting over a broken finger and shoulder injury: *figures*
- Training Hoss...the ever loyal but sometimes pesky Great Pyrenees
On the agenda for tomorrow and the next day is....dun dun dun duuunnnn...off-farm electrical work.
I guess that's a wrap.
Can't wait to see what you decide to post about! :D It's neat to be able to see a little bit of what farm life is like through your blog- it seriously looks like ALOT of work. But it'd probabaly be better if you didn't post about composting.. just for the record. *laughs*
ReplyDeleteYou should wait until next February 15th to post about compost. That's National Stop to Smell Your Compost Pile Day, ya know. *nods*
ReplyDeleteOo, I do hope you get to the grass-dairying, and stanchions posts. :)
