Barncast 68 — Cheese #2

Filed under: Podcast — andrew at 9:28 pm on Monday, May 28, 2007

Finally as promised here is a cheese walk through! The show really ended up in two parts, the Farm Phone/Round Up and the Cheese walk through. For the second bit make sure you have access to a computer to walk through with us. Now some food snobs out there will note that I do a fairly fast recipe and it won’t have a ton of flavour. That’s the best part though, anyone at home can make this recipe! It only takes milk, citric acid (canning aisle) and rennet (pudding/cooking aisle). From start to finish it only takes 30 minutes, what could be better than that for your first introduction to making cheese?? So listen and follow along at:

Barncast 67 — A big round up

Filed under: Podcast — andrew at 9:46 pm on Sunday, May 20, 2007

This has been a long week, and Misty twisted her ankle so we’re doing the podcast from the ground floor this week. This means the barn will sound a little different than normal, but hopefully it works out. We also changed the format a bit, there’s so much going on we thought we just expand the round up to give you a taste of life on a small farm in the spring.

So in this weeks show:

  • Misty’s ankle
  • Farm Phone: 206-202-GOAT
  • Butchering, and egg laying
  • Round Up: Too much to list

We love you feedback, so please call the farm phone at 206-202-GOAT or please send us an email at gfl@geekfarmlife.com or leave a comment!
