Wow--more than halfway through this year already! I have gotten a lot accomplished here on the homestead, but there is much more to do. Here are my homestead goals for the rest of 2012:
- pick berries; make raspberry jam, blueberry jam, and freeze some blueberries
- can peaches and pears
- can green beans
- freeze peas
- make and can applesauce
- acquire items for milking goats, including a cream seperator
- worm goats and chickens; figure out ingredients of herbal wormer and make plan to grow ingredients myself
- plan medicinal herb garden
- find good area for compost pile
- harvest and dry garlic; use larger cloves to replant in October
- sell unneeded items; use money to stock pantry with 200 lbs gluten free flour
- add diatomaceous earth to chicken house
- breed goats in the fall
- install wood stove (hubby)
- almost forgot...order homeschool curriculum and plan out 2012-2013 school year
