Barncast 142 — Beets

Filed under: Podcast — andrew at 1:22 am on Monday, November 3, 2008

Well, colour me red! This week we’re going to have a good chat about beets. We finally managed to grow a good crop this year so we look at what we found out, then look at how to cook beets and make some good eats.

Barncast 141 — Homemade Pate

Filed under: Podcast — andrew at 9:55 pm on Monday, October 27, 2008

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:

So here you can get some ideas for this years thanksgiving. We have a great set of calls to the farm phone, so keep em coming!

Here’s a flickr set with pictures about picking lima beans:
