Barncast 74 — Midsummer garden roundup

Filed under: Podcast — andrew at 8:20 pm on Sunday, July 8, 2007

Remember the next show is number 75 and that means it’s the listener question show. Just like show 55 and 65 we want you to call 206-202-GOAT with your questions and comments and then we’ll make the entire show based on calls we got. So please call!!

This week we start out with a special guest who dropped into to the studio with us. Then we gripe about the weather and then look at what’s going on with the garden, what’s doing well, what isn’t, and second crops of certain things. This week:

  • Special guest and intro
  • Farm Phone: 206-202-GOAT, 2 great calls
  • Round up: Milk good, dry bad
  • Farm Section: Garden

Hi Misty and Andrew,

Hope you guys are doing well out there in Indiana. I tried to add a podcast to the poll but the system wouldn’t let me. I highly recommend The Alternative Kitchen Garden. I really like Emma and her podcasts are fun to listen to.

Hi Mira! Hmm, the poll software seems to be having trouble with IE. Well it’s time for a new poll anyways.

I can’t add polls with IE but Mozilla seems to work ok.

Hi Misty and Andrew,
I have some questions for the question show, if it isn’t to late.
What do you plan to do with all the honey from your bees? I’m the allergic one, so I don’t want any, I’m just curious about what you’ll do with it. Store some of it maybe? But won’t you just keep getting more as your hives get better established?
For Misty: What are you working on as far as knitting and spinning goes?

A podcast I really like is Lime & Violet - knitting and spinning, but be careful they are enablers.

I had same problem with adding the podcasts. I am going to recomend a couple here in the comments instead. A great Radio show that they produce as a podcast is Deconstructing Dinner. And then I am going to have to second the Lime and Violet recomendation. I also had a question for ya’ll. You complain alot about having to weed and that you like the “lazy method” for cleaning out the goat barn, so I thought might comment about how my does it. She read lots of books and she finally found the Ruth Stout books and method it is lazy gardening that in volves mulching with hay and as far as the goat dung pile, when we were gardening at a friends place who had goats we helped muck out stable we just brought it striaght out to the garden we just left several inches of clearance around base of plants we never had to weed the garden at least.
