I use my new lawn mower that has a bagger. I love the mower with the bagger because how easy it is to collect the grass clippings. Grass clippings are great for rabbit and goat food. Chickens also will eat the grass clippings. You can also spread out the clippings to save them for hay to store for winter. AND the clippings that don’t go to feed make great compost.

Homeschooling: Simple Machines
Homeschooling gives us the freedom to teach and learn what we want. Our family get to take field trips to learn new things. Katie loves Marine Biology, and she got a chance to train dolphins. Here we went to a local kids museum to learn about simple machines.
Permaculture Zone 0
I currently live in the house that I grew up in. Before I move on to such things like water collecting and solar, I need to upgrade the energy efficiency. I will soon start the project of replacing siding for a more rustic farm house look. While increasing the insulation in the walls and ceiling.
Upcycled Bench Project.
A new project where I upcycle a head and foot boards into a bench. I have the mock up. Another example of use what you have.
