independence days; 7
June 15, 2008
What a week! We spent a lot of time getting ready for HM’s graduation. We still managed to get our usual chores done and even did a bit of experimenting.
1. Planted: radishes, tomato seedlings
2. Harvested: lettuce (4 types), spinach, chard, arugula, mint, radish, eggs
3. Preserved: strawberry infused vodka, lavender infused vodka, chamomile infused vodka, mint infused vodka
4. Stored: chocolate, nuts
5. Prepped: Worm bin materials collected, articles consulted, and ready for construction next week.
6. Managed: Bunny barn cleaned, 3 new rabbit does brought onto homestead, cleaned chicken coop. Weeded all gardens and orchards. Barn ready for hay delivery on Sunday.
7. Local: Passed 2 rabbit does and a buck along to a friend to get started, bought local milk and tried to make mozzarella (failed, but will try again), made yogurt. Set up hay delivery for this year. Shared home brew with “Hay Bob” which resulted in an invitation to come pick as many cherries off their trees as I want.
