Been wanting to experiment with Pemmican for a while now, and we finally made some!

First batch is just dried lean beef, cranberries, salt and tallow.

Going to experiment with other fruit and nut mixes next.

This stuff is nutrient dense!

I can see why Native Americans, trappers, and sailors used to eat it

since it’s shelf stable and DENSE

Potatoes, carrots, lettuce - I like soups and stews . Already have apples, plums outside and got citrus indoors. Want a supply where I can just pick my own and not rely on inflated shop prices👍When the tortoises go outside they can eat grass, dandelions and as they get too big to stay indoors , enough to feed them (plan to build a heated log cabin type shelter for them)🐢

I found a lumberyard/hardware store nearby that is not a chain store. Its literally in the woods, next to a locally owned fruit stand, and they have free fresh brewed coffee at the front of the store.

I tried to discern how theyve been able to stay in business with a Lowes nearby, and Amazon being ubiquitous.

Its service. They have several offices on the side with super knowledgable people, who do nothing but try to make contractors lives easier. All a contractor has to do is call their favorite rep, and whatever they need, will be delivered to a jobsite.

That, is why they aren’t just surviving, they’re busy.

And that is what is increasingly missing in the mega corporate box store world. Which means opportunities…

Good morning cowboys

I just learned about beetcoin and I'm here to fix it.

Hi #nostr, are you alive??

I love all my Nostr frens!

Some of you live close enough that we could meet for a cup of coffee, and some of you hail from halfway around the world 🌍

Nice work! Using reclaimed materials always feels like such a win.

If it’s not too late I highly recommend creating a knee wall or a curb thats at least 1’ under your door if you’re going to throw scraps and debris in your run. I did that for our 2.0 chicken coop and it’s saved much raking and frustration.

This step was originally 12” high before I started adding leaves, prunings, etc

I love projects made from found or scrap material. I think they’re beautiful. That’s a very handsome chicken coop you have there.

Cat is nature's perfection. Dog is the bastard child of man.

Chickens are awesome
