WHAT HAVE DONE TO FEED YOURSELF THIS WEEK

[Straight Shooter]

Sliced up two kilos of onions and filled the five trays in the dehydrator set to 55 and switched on , just as well use this down time to produce something for future months , onions go in anything we cook down here ,we have a sack full and some frozen .

We hold a good stock of dehydrated tomatoes,cucumber,apples,oranges,and lemon n limes so we have a good supply.
We sorted out our freezers the other week it’s all set up in order of date ,the oldest being set for first use.....on the wood stove right now is lamb stew smells delicious! Fresh baked bread just out ! .

On the ground this last week , sowed peas,first early potatoes 30ft row ,onion sets,shallots , had to leave the carrots for the coming week ...rain slowed me up , so into the poly tunnel , filled four buckets with compost ( drilled holes for drainage ) chucked in a few handfuls of clippings first ! Then sowed with corriander,basil,parsley and chives .....there is heat in there all the other stuff doing well .

Time to think of keeping chickens again, a hen house on wheels this time , will get that done over the coming weeks.
