Got about 3 cups of char from my woodstove lat night. It's not much, but it adds up. It's also a bonus for an activity that I am already doing. #biochar #homestead #permaculture #hacks #zap #grownostr image
Moved a fee yards of dirt today. Eventually this bridge will have ramps on both sides to allow the tractor to pass over. #workday #workout #farmercarry #dirt #water #farmlife #grownostr #permaculture #zap image
I finished this hugel bed up today. After filling it with logs and branches old sheep feed and chicken manure. I topped it off with seaweed, a couple of dead rats, the leftovers of a processed rabbit, 4 wheel barrow loads of conpost, then a layer of dirt a layer of used canary reed grass another layer of dirt and topped with the used canary reed grass. I meant to add more char, but it's in with the chicken manure. I also planted 16 tulip bulbs at the foot of the bed, as this will be something my wife comes by on the way to her office. 1 more bed to go like this. #grownostr #permaculture #hugel #homestead #prepped #farmlife #weekend #workout image
Dug and piled the basic material for this hugel bed this morning. Great way to start the day. I will leave it open to the rain for at least a couple weeks. When I put the dirt back on I will mix biochar rich chicken manure, which I have already added in with the branches. #grownostr #hugelkulture #permaculture #workout #homestead #lifesteading #biochar #gardening
