Barncast 151 — What we learned in 2008

Filed under: Podcast — andrew at 9:07 pm on Sunday, January 4, 2009

We have a great call in section for the farm phone this week. We still need you calls about money saving tips on the farm phone, batteries, and mantis tillers at 206-202-GOAT.

This week we look back at 2008 at which me learned and what worked and what didn’t. We cover a lot of ground so it’s a slightly longer podcast, but I think it’s packed full of god information about the garden, animals, preserving and rural life. So please join us for a fun look back.

We’re inside the house again this week. It was 15f/-10c outside with the wind howling so we’re inside. But don’t worry I stuck a mic outside so you can listen to the wind blowing by. This week we have 3 great farm phone calls to 206-202-GOAT. We’re looking for input on growing mushrooms so give the farm phone a call. We also talk about mead and going to Chicago for a special trip.
