Green eggs and ham.....
First it was school taking up all my time and now spring chores aimed at a more self sufficient lifestyle are getting in the way of blogging. We’ve been digging up lawn to make our gardens larger, expanding the irrigation system and yes, building a chicken coop. Free range eggs .50 a dozen, shipping extra...all prices quoted are in Canadian funds. Ok, we’re only getting six chickens so the export business may have to wait a while. If all goes well with our poultry experience though, we may try raising a pig or two next year. Pass the bacon please. (Apologies to my vegan friends for any unpleasant visuals you may be experiencing.) We’ve always grown a garden but never had the time motivation needed to raise animals. Lately with all the issues surrounding modern food production we’ve decided to get a little more serious about it, besides, not only will we know where our food comes from this way, it tastes so much better too. So if anyone has advice on small scale, semi-urban farming or you have back issues of CountrySide magazine you’d like to recycle, give me a call....and don’t worry about the time, I’m up with the chickens.
