Yes! Pumpkins! I'll be planting a load of winter squash shortly, likely all over the front yard and all in the sharing garden. I've planted copious amounts of summer squash already, and these kinds of foods are going to make up a lot of their diet. Squash, peas, beets, and melons.
How long did you soak their daily grains in whey? Was it an overnight fermentation, or just a daily case of fill a trough and add the whey?
BOBBY IM SO EXCITED, DID YOU SEE THAT I HAVE PIGS? I GET TO LEARN ABOUT PIGS NOW.
I'm reading every post - matter of fact I figured the Boys have already eaten you whole, with no posts in the last few days... I was beginning to pen a letter via regular post to Melissa, no other point of contact! :D :D :D
Re: whey, they just mixed it in the morning and gave it about lunch time. Usually the early food were some quickly gathered greens and late in the afternoon was scythed nettles, or a few baskets of purslane or other weeds. But I figure some overnight soaking won't hurt and might make the morning routine a bit easier.
Yessir, that's not entirely far from the truth! They tried to eat my boots today, hungry little buggers. My pants too!
I started my first batch of cheese for the year. I haven't had much to post about, but I'm working on one now.
