anna and iw ould like to meet with neil and nina sometime soon about projects at the farm. anna is busy outside right now doing some sheet mulching, and im getting ready to sell the motorcycle, getting pictures and psoting it online.
anyway, i already wrote an informative paper to the rovners about humanure, which ill post to the site so everyone can check it out. we have to talk to them about it, but they seem open to the idea. anna has proposed 2 milking goats, which ws also received very well by nina. its a big commitment, but as long as we have people around helping us out when we can't be here, we should be in good shape.
the on other project neil and i already discussed a little is an outbuilding. i would like to have a place to put tools and have a small workspace, but the spot where our mowers are now would be perfect. so if we had a building big enough to keep the mowers and a few other things we would be better off. neil suggested a 10x12 prefab amish style shed, but i think tht may be too small. i think we need to know what is actually going to be in it before we decide on a size.
other projects in the works are:
WVO conversion of a diesel (once we buy it)
rainwater catchment system
electricity in the greenhouse
solar water heting (maybe to be used at first for animal watering system)
better chicken tractor design for next year
