Cool, Fairlight. Mama, have a beer! I'm looking in the fridge for leftovers. Hum. Roast Chicken with dressing. Oh by the way, Mama, you do realize the we have two refrigerators, right? One totally veg and one for the rest. The same with pots and pans and things. There are two of everything. Clearly marked. Use the ones with the green painted on the handles. Not the red. Okay???? Cool. Same info to everybody else. Not here. I'm off eating leftovers. Yum!
Too early for beer Kenny, I had enough last night I'll only use the green handles, got it! Morning all xx
Got the cheese man, you're a star! Sounds like good news on the farm front but I don't know if you want to go down the quantity rather than quality road. Keep it rather small and exclusive works for me and more importantly the goats won't be part of some hugh production line. Lets keep it ethical!
Yeah...I agree and I got to work this one out with Kenny...This calls for a business meeting...I don't like animals on production lines either etc...
Hey, You guy do what you like. I'm all urban. I did the farm for all of my gardening friends. Just Like I created and excellent garden with everything that one could want. Because I knew that people would come in to this thread and be veggies and people who would want a garden. I did it all for you guys so it's yours. What do do is All your call. Of course I don't know what you're going to do with 125 square mile farm with 3.5 million goats on it. Maybe you will all choose to kill them off. I'm city. I'm not part of that. I just went out there to set the farm up for everyone. Sell most of the goats, if that is your choice. I'm still keeping the beef cattle there, though. There's no production line involved, either. It's all organic and natural. No little goats pens. The goats are all free range grazing. They need to be herded into huge holding pens, two times a day for their 2 milkings. You can milk all 3 and a half million of them by hand, one at a time which means that all of the waiting goats are in pain and waiting. Or you could use new milking machines and get them all done fast. Happy no pain goats.And in the winter when your hands are icy cold, the milking Machines are all nice and warm. I don't garden. It all for you. Sell the place if you don't know what to do.
Kenny, I don't hate Blue Cheer. I'm not a huge fan, but I think they're pretty good. So now you have met a woman who doesn't hate them.
Triple shot! :coffee: This one goes to eleven https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BipmmciZDn4"]https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BipmmciZDn4
Kenny.Setting up the farm was a great idea.A lot of people would like to try there hand at growing vegetables and keeping animals and the like.But I think the scale of the farm and the proposed production methods might alienate some folks from getting involved.Maybe we could re- conceptualize/materialize the number of goats down to a more reasonable number?.LOL.I will just take however many acres I need for the goats and vegetable growing,and you can do whatever you want with your cattle herd.Each to their own.
Tyrsonswood, Nice Rock. I saw them most recently, two years ago, and originally for the first time back in the Fall of 1969 at the Carousel Ballroom (Fillmore West). As far as I can recall they were brand new with one hit on the FM radio, and they were playing second billing for Blind Faith.
Yeah,no cattle for me! I did grow tobacco once many years ago so I think I might research that a little more.
But the cattle like you. They all look at you with there big brown eyes. They just don't understand. :sunny: ??? tobacco ???
My part of the farm will be run on an organic/permaculture basis.It is not "My" part of the farm.It is ours.And you can come over and see how I'm gonna do it any time Kenny.I will also be keeping chickens.My plan is to make a modest income and be as self-sufficient in food as possible.I will have a steep learning curve...
Yeah, but the whole farm in all 100% "permaculture Plus" and Completely organic. We have chickens you just didn't drive 5 mile over to the organic permaculture Free range chicken place yet. The existing place is super self-sufficient and as far as sustainable goes, it can feed everyone that all of us know and and feed a quarter of a city the size of Washington, D.C. too. That would mean that it qualifies as self sustaining and it could also feed a whole good size town on top of being sustainable. It already makes a modest income, plus an additional 6 million per year. We grow 10% of every year's crops to ship directly to the starving people in Africa, or to give to Soup kitchens to feed the homeless in the UK and the US. And we sell enough to feed the world commercially that with our 6 million a year income earnings we give away 3 million to charities for the poor. Of course if you guys decide that you just want a little self sufficient farm for just yourselves that grows just enough for you to eat, and makes just enough money to scrape by from year to year, Okay? But you can already be impoverished at Stephen Gaskin's commune farm in Tennessee. As I said. I'm urban.
Almost nap time for me I have eclectic tastes too https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PHJR4cBum-c"]https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PHJR4cBum-c
