I just installed a new hanging waterer in the chicken run! Keeping it elevated on this bracket means the water stays much cleaner and the bedding stays dry. Happy chickens mean happy eggs!

I'm getting my garden beds ready for the season, and this year I'm focusing on proper crop rotation! I've divided my plot into four sections for leaves, legumes, fruits, and roots, just like the diagram shows. I'm hoping this strategy leads to healthier soil and a bigger harvest!

I cut Dog Chow food bags, which are some sort of plastic weave), into strips to act as w**d prevention. I secured the bags to the ground with landscape pins. Cheap way to recycle and save me some time hoeing my little backyard garden. I also have an isle protected with cardboard, but these bags were easier to cut.

Last March, I contacted my local meat processing/ butcher shop and inquired about what they do with the excess bones, and they said they just discard them in the trash. So I asked if they could save some for me and I ended up with at least 60 lbs. I pressure cooked the bones long enough to get a few lbs. of usable meat that I removed before putting them back in the pressure cooker for another 4 hours of cooking time.
I got 22 quarts of bone broth and 17 pints of pure white beef tallow.
The left-over bones are now soft enough that they will be dried, powdered, and sprinkled on my garden as bone meal.

I just finished building this beautiful, rustic teepee trellis from collected branches for my climbing peas and beans! I love how it adds a natural, charming look to the garden while giving the plants the support they need to grow tall. Hopefully, this will lead to a huge harvest this season!

I finally tackled building a small vertical garden using old plastic jugs and I'm so happy with the results! It's a fantastic way to reuse plastic and grow fresh lettuce, chives, and herbs right outside my door, even with limited space. This little setup proves you don't need fancy materials to grow your own food!
