Welcome back for show 171! This week we take a look back and Geese and what we’ve learned over the last few years. A long time ago when the show was still in the single digits we went over what animals we’ve had and why. It’s been over 3 years since then and we have many new listeners and things have changed so maybe it’s time to look at them again.

Goose and her goslings

Welcome to a show with a little this and that. We value your calls to the farm phone at 206-202-GOAT, so give us a shout. This weeks show covers a little this and that, from a little tech, to some good milking numbers, to some chores info. I hope you enjoy.

Twitter

If you would like to follow more day to day activities on the farm please follow us on Twitter. We’ve been asked a few times, so let’s give it a shot. I’ll try and post a picture when there’s something interesting, or more mundane news that might not make the podcast.

This week we even have a geek section. How long has it been since one of them? We had some excitement this week on the farm so we look though what had to be done and the results. No rest for the weary right?

We also had 2 great calls to the farm phone. We need your help with the first one so call 206-202-GOAT. We then look at the work needed to milk a goat.

Morrel season

Delayed

We had Michelle (our farm sitter and friend) over for some home made Indian food and it got rather late so we’re going to do the podcast Monday night. So if you didn’t call the farm phone last week you have 24 hours left to get it in for podcast 169. 206-202-GOAT.

This year it’s our 5th year doing a garden, and this year we’re having some good luck getting things started. So we look at what we’re up to this year, where things are a and what we think worked. It’s also the first year we’ve had the wheel hoe from the start so we look at how it’s doing.
