I mounted a tire on my splitting block. It saves me a lot of picking-up-firewood to split again. Especially useful for making kindling.

Beautiful flock. Healthy and well-kept animals in a healthy and well-kept paddock. How do you feed them over the winter? npub154xls56nw254e6mq6u6udzrg02g4j7av8cn3g9h4g2nv4c96aqhqyz6eqz CiderMaker Thanks. Maybe I should share more about grazing and pasture management. Super important part of the story. For one thing we have never had issues with parasites and never treated the flock with medicine. Frequent rotations to new paddocks not only builds the fertility of the soil. It also keeps the animals healthy. npub154xls56nw254e6mq6u6udzrg02g4j7av8cn3g9h4g2nv4c96aqhqyz6eqz CiderMaker Do try your sous vide gadget. It is a very nice tool to have in the cupboard. But you can overdo it. Last weekend I gave a leg of a lamb 6-7 hours on 58 degree C and that was way to much. It was juicy. But way to tender / falling apart completely like a jelly. npub154xls56nw254e6mq6u6udzrg02g4j7av8cn3g9h4g2nv4c96aqhqyz6eqz CiderMaker Finally the scandalous bovaer situation in Denmark is getting som publicity.

Remember comming home to 18 ducks roosting on the roof ridge. And they are even better breeders. According to local folklore they can hatch even stones :-) npub154xls56nw254e6mq6u6udzrg02g4j7av8cn3g9h4g2nv4c96aqhqyz6eqz CiderMaker Not a bad advice. One thing to keep in mind: people rarely sell or part with their very best animals. So building a high-quality flock — calm, friendly, healthy, disease-free, easy birthing, great mothers — can take real time and effort. But it’s absolutely worth it. This is generational wealth. Just yesterday a friend came to borrow the bolt gun. He had two lambs that were too far gone from heavy intestinal worm loads and needed to be put down. Livestock come with many joys... and many sorrows. npub154xls56nw254e6mq6u6udzrg02g4j7av8cn3g9h4g2nv4c96aqhqyz6eqz CiderMaker Exercise your freedom npub154xls56nw254e6mq6u6udzrg02g4j7av8cn3g9h4g2nv4c96aqhqyz6eqz CiderMaker I often think of this video.

This was a small gimmer/ewe lamb from this spring. Harvesting 12 in total this fall. Most lambs. But also our beloved 9 year old ram. npub154xls56nw254e6mq6u6udzrg02g4j7av8cn3g9h4g2nv4c96aqhqyz6eqz CiderMaker This is how we do it. As calm as possible. In the flock in the pastures.

Their mothers received only small amounts of wrapped hay/silage during winter. 100 % grass-fed, no grains ever. npub154xls56nw254e6mq6u6udzrg02g4j7av8cn3g9h4g2nv4c96aqhqyz6eqz CiderMaker Late night grinding.

I double down on that. Just got laid off recently, and I've got this gut feeling I won't ever go back to office work. Sure, it might be the easiest path to making money, but it slowly kills my soul... Luckily, I'm self-sufficient with work on the homestead for now. :-) Give this lecture a spin. It's true to the bitcoiner ethos. #nevent1q…dswp npub154xls56nw254e6mq6u6udzrg02g4j7av8cn3g9h4g2nv4c96aqhqyz6eqz CiderMaker GM. Spetacular sunrise behind clouds today.

But when we relocated a decade ago, these were the factors that guided us: 1. An aesthetically pleasing landscape—we settled on a holiday island with beautiful beaches and untouched forests. It's pure therapy for the soul. 2. Relatively affordable properties—we sought a small farm with a modest mortgage. 3. A community of about 40,000 people: large enough for a high school, hospital, basic education, and industry. Yet small enough for positive social oversight—crime is virtually nonexistent here, and when it arises, it's addressed swiftly. 4. A mentality of helping neighbors through tough times. The community unites during disasters or snowstorms. 5. We arrived with few friends and no relatives—that remains the greatest loss. Though we've made many friends and gained a few relatives now, I still miss the brotherhood from my youth, the ones I could call in the middle of the night. npub154xls56nw254e6mq6u6udzrg02g4j7av8cn3g9h4g2nv4c96aqhqyz6eqz CiderMaker My son.
