I'm sorry I disappeared for a bit, but I've been sick as a dog! I've also had to work every day through it. The worst. Luckily, I have plenty of dried mullein for tea. It's so great for breaking up the lung funk that comes with illness. What are your go-to remedies?
Absolutely mullein to sooth respiratory track and lungs in all tea blends, ginger for warmth, turmeric for joints, tulsi for balance, gotu kola alertness and looking at thyme and elecampane currently as an expectorant... and cleavers for lymphatic movement in the sluggish winter months...

I did the pumpkin thing with my chickens and it worked. š Carve off the top layer of your design and let the chickens peck out the rest. I'll put it in their run so they can work on it a little longer.
I worked into the evening putting my new greenhouse together. The instructions aren't great, but it's coming together. What projects are y'all working on right now?
