Barncast 141 — Homemade Pate

2008/10/27 in Food, Podcast by andrew | No comments

This weeks show has a great set of farm phone calls. We even go down under with a call from New Zealand, how great is that? We then cover some more mundane topics, like how to use all those extra livers from your fall butchering to make a fantastic pate. Some come join us, and don’t forget to call the farm phone at 206-202-GOAT.

Here’s a few pictures I took on our trip to Indianapolis last weekend:

Barncast 138 — Preparing the Animals for Winter

2008/10/06 in Animals, Farm, Podcast by andrew | 4 comments

Our first mild frost has hit, now it’s time to think forward to how to prepare the animals for winter. It isn’t that hard, but a little bit of planning how will have you from popsicles later. But that’s not the only thing we talk about this week, we have some great calls too, ranging from grape jelly tips to the end of the horse slaughter in the US.
