Having local connections is the best. We were able to exchange some eastern red cedar logs with a #local #sawmill. They were able to saw true dimension 6x6 posts, 2x8, 2x6, and 2x4s for our lean-to #project we’ll be starting soon. All he wanted in exchange was log for log. That right there is what #community and social capital is all about!!

GM y’all! Look at these amazing pork tacos topped with Mexican type coleslaw. I can’t wait for lunch time. #foodstr #tacos #doubledecker 
Dude! That’s crazy. I’d like a few of these in different characters.
Just chicken this round. I had to write on there so I remembered what humidity since it fluctuates all the time.
Fig cuttings are starting to bud out 🤩

At day 19, the humidity is increased to 65-75% until hatch.
For chickens, the temp needs to stay around 99°F with a humidity between 50-55%
#softball season is here!
Time to #playball 
You have some time up there in cold land lol. I have to get peppers started today.
They come out so huge. It’s hard to believe they were in a tiny egg. They definitely cuter
Broccoli lettuce and cilantro are absolutely going ham dispute the greenhouse freeze. 💪🏼

The #incubation process has officially begun for the year. I can’t wait for the new chicks to join our family. I’ll be candling them in a few days to see which ones are fertile. The kiddos are super excited.

I have 2 40gallon trash cans of water in there as thermal mass. Just not enough when it’s 2°F outside
Hoping it was just the seedling. It’s just a reminder that we can’t control everything but damnit, we sure will try.
I think there were mass casualties in the greenhouse. My sickness caused poor planning and well the cold weather will do cold things. Loss count tbd.
I now have a backup propane heater in place to try and salvage as many plants as possible.
