Dibble boards; as promised! Do a search and notice the infinite options. Infinite options just causes my brain to go into overdrive but in the end I always make this sort of thing myself. They can be as simple as one row or far more complex than mine; I’m using a stair tread cut to fit inside my...

I accomplish seed spacing via “dibble boards” that i make from stair treads and joiner dowells. I’ll take a picture of one tomorrow; they would make great gifts being homemade and all! The tool i want most is a 42ft. Grand Banks trawler yacht; so i can harvest my own Kelp!🤭

Based on the age of this thread; if any of the “culprits” went to jail they may be about ready for parole by now! And @Qufrnoren, welcome to the club, the gardening club And the “i hate to deal with the IRS club”; from Alaska!

@akroberts ; how was that Chicken?

While enjoying a temperate couple days; i opened the greenhouse, lit the Toyo and went back to work on an irrigation up-grade. Previously 7 of these zone valve’s were brass gate valves and after a couple years they did not seal any longer so each of them were replaced with the same nylon valves...

Tomorrow promises to be another great day! 🇺🇸

Remembering you telling us “the demi glace was to die for” makes me think of poor Peppas! Quite possibly a good option to help you remember the foul fowl fondly?😊

We awoke to 40f this morning and bright sun, made for a pleasant day. I had a meet up with our ADFG department at a local stream and i almost wished i’d brought a picnic lunch!

Welcome from Alaska, lots to learn here.

Lavender essential oil is our go to for any type of burn, not only for it’s healing properties but it also calms the pain from a burn! We use it for any number of first aid requirements not requiring stitches!😳

Yes this came down last night. It will probably be gone in a couple days but i dont want to walk in it doing chores so i plowed it.

We’ve done this before!

You can buy a 60lb bale of Alfalfa at a feed store or from a farmer and run it thru the chipper shredder for a lot less! It does not have to be in powder form to work!

This time of year the “sled-dog folks” are gearing up for upcoming races. Training involves hooking 20 or so dogs in harness, to a wheeler which the dogs love to pull (in neutral) for mile after mile. Once there’s snow of course they will switch to sleds. It’s fun to stop sometimes and watch...

Welcome from the other corner of our country; Alaska! If you stick around, you can’t help but learn stuff from these folks. I think of this forum as a Big Circus with a bunch of little side shows going on. Plenty of variety and many of us grow indoors too.

This is a happy place, the burger’s ground and headed into the tubes and the Tallow is in the oven rendering. After another hour’s worth of clean-up this project will be done for the year, thank you Lord. Now i get to pull a Canoe down from the shop ceiling for a little winter project!

Mid day i took a break and “filled the bird feeder”. Within an hour i had a customer; one of them blabber mouth Magpies, so rest assured by morning there’ll be a gaggle of them out there. A lot of little birds frequent the feeder as well and that’s who im targeting anyway.

These are ranch raised, not hunted. Grass fed and grass finished; no shots, hormones or other “contaminants”! This animal hanging on the tractor weighed right at 400lbs as you see it. We completely bone them and do not put any bone in meat in the freezer. The boning will turn that 400 lb animal...

The Alaskan version of “Boys and Girls; getting down, on the farm”! Today i headed, an hour and a half North for my annual Yak butchering ritual. As Alaskans would say “the mountain was out”, and im ever amazed at how big Denali is because in pictures it appears to be just over the next hill...

18f this morning. 🥶
