Winter has come, and in a big way. One freezing night after another.
The greenhouse is not heated, so the plants had to evacuate inside the house. In here they are warmer, but are still not looking anywhere near what we would like. The lettuce is continuing to slowly grow. Emphasis on the word slow.
So now my sights are on other plans, and what we will begin in the spring. What we are most excited about is getting some chickens. We’ve got an 8,000 square foot lot….so we think 4 will be good.
During the winter months we may try my families recipe for home-made kielbasi sausage. We’d also like to try and start making home-made soap. We will see.
