We recently harvested over 20 kilos of dried beans planted in our rotational pig pastures. This system is far from perfect, but while we are distracted by construction projects it's one of the only places we can grow larger short-cycle crops. The goal is to eventually have a harvest like this once a month, and as the soil improves in the pastures, harvests will only get better.

Our neighbors brought us two baby toucans rescued from a fallen log. These little dinosaurs are loud and fascinating creatures! We've had them for a few days now and are starting to discover their rhythms for eating and rest, and are feeling more confident we'll be able to successfully raise them to the point they can fly free.
If there are any #bird experts out there who might have some advice, feel free to share. Tips are appreciated!
What a fun adventure!

One of the next steps in our ongoing addition project is the construction of some bambu curtains to be able to close in our open-air kitchen. This guadua was planted by Michael as soon as he arrived on the property and seven years later we're able to harvest and put it to use. But first, it has to be split.
