Hello all, just joined the group and thought I'd at least introduce myself. Name's David, friend of Thor. I'm living in Erie, PA currently. You probably...
Hi there! Welcome to the list. Our family is also in PA, but not as close as Denise. =) We live out towards the Reading/Berks County area. This is a great list...
well things never go exactly as planned ;-) I didn't get much out of the string beans. They were tasty, but all combined probably as much as two suppers...
I have still only gotten two cherry tomato's out of my garden!!! Next year will be better, though everything was about 6 weeks behind here in Oregon. I did get...
Yup. Every yr you live somewhere you learn a little more. I have similar problems with both Raccoons and Possums. I've found that at planting time, make a...
If you need cherry tomatoes, I got them coming out my ears. The regular ones are starting to get ripe too. Itıs really weird for a cold year my tomatoes did...
yah yah yah... whatever... too bad you dont have raspberries any more... *AHAHAHAAH* stupid goats... We're gonna have to have a fall fest here pretty soon... ...
Nothing did especially well for me but it was my first year gardening and I have some new ideas for next year to try again. Thankfully there are enough local...
It takes a couple of yrs for you to "get" the land you're on. Heck, I've been on mine for 7 yrs and I've JUST figured out I can't grow most Tomatoes, any...
Squash Cross very easily. Luckly, as I posted before, they're also easy to prevent hybridizing for Seed-saving. Those blossoms can be either twisted or tied...
it's not unusual for many squash and pumpkin to cross. I was amazed how many veggies and herbs are in the carrot family, and therefore can cross with each...
Here is a great article on rain water harvesting from off-grid.net. Is anyone out there harvesting rainwater ? I have two 55 gallon barrels that fill from my...
What kind of shingles do you have on your roof? If they're asbestos shingles, I'd be leery about using rainwater for livestock. Oh, and the great state of...
No asbestos in my shingles. A metal roof works best but a shingle roof will work for non potable water. If you are going to drink it boil or filter it first. ...
Gardening in Maine: My garden did ok but others in our area of Maine did not. I had to start new seed for cukes, all squash and pumkins - something came...
Did you guys make any wildberry jam this year? I miss it! I have gotten used to getting some at ECT. It's my favorite! I actually long for after it's gone....
We were too busy with ECT preparations to produce sale goods. Honestly, Ithe main reason we do jam, syrup, etc is just to promote sheep sales and 'network'...
I sent you a message about wool and such... (I figure one can never have enough..ahahaha) Angelia in OR ... From: The Cyrs To: HeathenHomestead@yahoogroups.com...
Sam and Debbie here in Oregon (and on the list here) have Navajo Churro, Icelandic and Jacob and I love it! BUT.... as I said... one can never have enough......
Personally I'd rather be felting. Anyone half way good with their hands can make some really neat stuff. My daughter and I nailed some killer and very...
Hi Carrie, I would love to get some of your wool too! Not sure how to arrange a pick up though...except some of your kinfolk might be heading down this way...
Hey Neicie, Well, our garden did pretty well this year. The weather was pretty good through the spring and into most of the summer...although the last 5 weeks...
What was their reasoning behind that one??? Texas has been promoting it even in cities like Austin. Judy ... asbestos shingles, I'd be leery about using...
Gardens in Central TX overall did horrible this year. We had a freeze in April (month later than norm) and then within a month temps went up to 100+ with no...
