Filed under: Podcast — andrew at 10:35 pm on Monday, October 6, 2008

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.
