Barncast 116 — Portable Fencing #3

2008/04/27 in Electricity, Fencing, Podcast by andrew | 1 comment

Welcome to another great show!

This week we revisit an old topic, our portable fencing we use. Instead of mowing all summer long we have the sheep and goats trim our grass. This is at least the 3rd time we’ve talked about it, but we go into more detail this time. Don’t worry though if you haven’t listened to past shows, we do enough review you won’t be left behind.

Make sure you call the farm phone at 206-202-GOAT!

Moving hives in the back of the jeep:

Tomorrow I’ll add a movie of me setting up the fencing.

Barncast 72 — Using your Lawn as Pasture

2007/06/24 in Animal Feed, Computers, Fencing, Pasture, Podcast by andrew | 16 comments

This week we revisit an old topic, our portable electric fence. It’s been a little over a year since we started using it and I think we’ve learn a lot so we look at what mistakes we made and what worked well. We do a lot of review but if you’re new to show and want more about the fence check out some back episodes from last year when we talked about buying it and setting it up for the first time.

Barncast 16 — Grunt grunt, what file?

2006/05/29 in Chores, Fencing, Internet, Knitting, Podcast, Podcasting, travel by andrew | 3 comments

Well, Misty’s out of town this week so we tried to record another double ender. Except it didn’t work, so you get the audio from my end instead. Which means it sounds like Misty’s in a tin can. This weeks podcast covers:

Misty’s travels
Internet access on the road and at home
How not to move the portable fencing
Chores alone
Misty’s afghan. It’s done after 1.5 years!
Send us feed back! gfl@three-elms.com

I hope everyone enjoys the show. As Dave from Chub Creak pointed out to me, we made the top page of the podcast section at yahoo. I don’t know how long it’ll be up, but check it out. Interestingly enough it hasn’t really changed the download stats. I dunno if that says anything about us and our listeners, or more about yahoo?

I hope everyone has a good week. Next week Misty will be back and we’ll have a more normal podcast, but maybe we’ll have it outside? What did you think?
