Barncast 52 — Something cheesy

Filed under: Podcast, Spinning, Weather, Knitting, Cheese, Astronomy — andrew at 8:15 pm on Saturday, February 3, 2007

We haven’t been blown away, yet. That strange noise in the background is the wind. Yes, I mic’ed the window. It’s cold so we stayed inside and did the podcast from the sofa. We wander a bit, but overall for a mid winter cast it came out ok!

  • Thank you to Tom
  • The Weather
  • Farm Phone, Misty’s in trouble with Gabe again. 206-202-GOAT
  • Astronomy
  • Round up! It’s cold!
  • Farm Section: It’s all about cheese. This week it’s just a very light overview, more depth latter
  • Life Section: spinning and sweaters

Please leave us a comment or call the Farm Phone: 206-202-GOAT!

Filed under: Podcast, Weather, Knitting, Bees, Skype, Food Preservation — andrew at 4:46 pm on Saturday, August 5, 2006

This weeks show has a guest, Tom who’s a Wisconsin bee keeper. I’m sorry about some of the phone call quality, we were having some internet troubles. But the content we really enjoyed. This weeks show:

For the bee section we didn’t talk about varroa mites, and other problems. We want to bring Tom back, if you want him back let us know. We really want feedback this week! Email us at gfl@three-elms.com, or leave comments!
