Well now I need to have that on my list of new to grow! My butternuts have stored very well for me but these sound much sweeter. Easier than pumpkin too. Just will add, not deleting the butternuts. So Bay -- save some seed for me, just dry them well. Addy coming to you. One day I'll get a surprise in the mail.
Great job on the CCX! You should be set for meats -- pork, lamb, chicken, beef working. And your garden did so well. You've worked hard but had a good year! Be proud.
I'm hoping my pastures come thru with the rye cover crop. If so, it may be something you would like to try in a spot there. Temp wise may work. Strictly winter, dies with heat but works for some winter graze. Check it on line..abruzzi rye. I can buy it cheap from a local. Shipping kills you...at least here, therefore at most suppliers. This baby clover is so cute. It's the crimson. Loved the pretty pics of yours. I have a lot of other clovers here but not as pretty. This spring I have to collect dandelion puffs to reseed fields. My goats love those leaves. Excellent nutrition. Comfrey plot expanding, too. All about forage here! A big consideration for my eventual staying home -- that R word. 😁. Got a goat soap maker who will start buying goat milk from me in Spring. I'm closer and less $. I'm happy with that. Who knows ... 2021 may be my year after all...if things keep working out. Three new egg customers last week helps confidence on that front...every little bit counts.
It is a cool 60 out there today...won't go but maybe 66 and rain mid afternoon. Light breeze. Everyone here will shelter in place this afternoon. I've got laundry going. Will clean late day, during rain. Have two more fields to spin seed this AM. Rain it in!! The grasses there will give it shelter to grow....and hold ground temps a little longer in a month or two when weather cools way more at night. Currently temps are perfect for it. Hope abounds...I mean, it is a winter crop!!
