There are a lot of fancy ways to make Biochar, but I prefer the simple slash pile method.

We burn slash (dead branches) anyway to reduce hazardous fuels around our home, so why not make charcoal for the garden!?

Lots of people make biochar a science, but I tend to see it more as an art.

🔥 Please burn responsibly.

The bottom line here is, if you are the apocalyptic fascist #tacticool #exmilitary #excop #thinblueline #MAGA #trumper #ChristianNationalist #tradwife #prepper #homesteader #survivalist type who thinks you are going to be fighting a #guerilla war against the US government or some #RedDawn foreign government likely to invade the US, you can pretty much kiss the idea of using radio #communications goodbye.

My partner informs me that it was more usually the cow that they brought into the soddie for warmth. More heat, less smell I guess 😆

Is that movie Why Shoot the Teacher? I couldn't find the other name, and this one sounds related. I've never heard of it before - I will keep an eye out for it. Thanks!

Oooooh. It's been six weeks.

Which means my cayenne oil is ready to be used.

A little farm and garden update for the homies:

One of my favorite things about the #farm is that every day is pretty much a different experiment.

The mason jar filled with flowers is my attempt at making lilac oil using the #enfleurage technique. After steeping for a few weeks, it should be ready to go.

The meat photo? #capicolla! It's going to be vacuum sealed for a week, and then it shall go hang in my cellar with the #bresaola I've had hanging for two weeks now.

And the garden-- I've got everything in this photo planted except those buckets along the back wall. I'm building a raised bed for watermelons back there, but right now the buckets are back there as storage because I don't know what I'm going to use them for (or plant in them) yet. They'll probably end up going between the back fence and the big bed in the middle. If you have any ideas, let me know!

The next step aside from the watermelon bed is to finish laying cardboard out to kill weeds, and then cover it with wood chips and level everything, so it doesn't look, well, like it does in the photo.

Also, if you havent figured it out yet... I'm in my cottage core era now.

It's a dreary Monday, which makes sense considering the senseless actions in Texas this weekend-- as well as all of those that have happened, and unfortunately will continue to happen-- until we do something about it.

"No Way to Prevent This," Says Only Nation Where This Regularly Happens

That said, no matter how loud we scream and yell... it always falls on deaf ears, and their silence is literally killing people.

I have these stickers up for sale in my shop. Even if the politicians won't listen, you can make your feelings known.

Tots and Pears, I guess. ❤

I've posted about my #Etsy once before, but I'm posting again today because I added more stickers!!

This brings me up to about 50 different designs, and I really hope you guys will go check them out. I've linked the shop below for your convenience.

I feel like I'm finally getting some of my groove back in this post-covid world, and thats a good thing. I hope you all are too.

We are officially six weeks from May 1st, here in SE Wisconsin. That means 8 weeks to last frost.

I am absolutely thrilled to have started my plants as early as I did. It gives me time to get them bigger and stronger, as well as do a second sowing of anything that does not do well, or anything I want a second plant/second planting on.

This weeks goals are to get my 4-6 week seeds planted, and get some of my cold hardy plants outside.

On top of that, I have another raised bed to build (8x4x1), trellises need to be moved and/or placed, the ground needs to be mulched, and I need to finish weeding what I can.

Planting/garden/farm season is about to be in FULL SWING and I couldn't be more excited.

I am going to shank the next person who thinks food safety laws don't matter because they're only cooking for themselves and their families.

FOOD BORNE ILLNESS DOES NOT GIVE A DAMN IF YOU ARE IN A COMMERCIAL KITCHEN OR A HOME ONE. NOR DO ALLERGENS.

#OTD Carole Lombard, #MovieStar & #Homesteader, died tragically in a #PlaneCrash after leaving #LasVegas.

Carole loved to #Garden. She & her husband, #ClarkGable, lived on a 21-acre #Farm w/ an #Orchard/citrus grove & a #Vineyard near #BeverlyHills. Their grapes went to a hospital; their turkeys to MGM.

Carole sold her #StarSapphire-s to fund their #Dream & even bought Clark a #Tractor. The couple called each other "Ma" & "Pa" & used kerosene lanterns.
