The first chicken tractor for our pastured meat birds has rolled off the assembly line. Still need a little work on the front roof screen, but it’s good enough to hold the current crop of 50 freedom rangers at their current size. This was the prototype – let’s see if we can make the next one faster. This crop will be ready around the first week on November. If you’re interested in tasty pasture raised chicken, contact us or visit our website at www.avalonfarms.us for more info on how to purchase.

Always be aware of what’s on the back of you chair before you sit down. Don’t be like me and hear “uh.. honey… You might want to stand up…” She is kinda cute though. Just rather startling up close at face level. 😀

What happens to the okra that doesn’t sell at the farmers market? It gets grilled, along other things! Throw them in a bag with a little olive oil and some Avalon Farm’s rosemary salt (which was out for putting in the steaks, right?), mix well and cook over a medium low burner. Yum!

Gleaning, the process of going along and getting the leftovers after the harvest, is mentioned in the Bible several places. Gleaning is good for the next crop, good for the land, and good for the pocketbook. Here we’re gathering up leftover hay cuttings to use as clean mulch in the gardens. It’s about as sustainable as you can get 😀
