Amen. Sca
But.....dried, and then dry canned, they should last a winter, minimum, and can be tossed in soup. Or simmered and add3d to scrambled eggz. Chop...
Dehydrate, and then dry can. Works for: corn, summer/yellow/zucch squash, beans, tomatoes, peppers, tried and failed at kale....user error,...
We do too. We raised the wood stove so we could sweep under it. So far though, for overhauling the stove (redoing the cement inside, checking...
We just made a purchase of some reuseable lids. Only got a few, and will need many more if we continue that path. Every time one of us here...
For the short term, yes. But extended outtages can get spendy. I'm not thrilled about having a generator buzzing away attracting attention,...
Instead of an outhouse (not particularly good for the environment), I've been checking out composting toilets. Humanure to be exact. The premise...
Fun note: all gas ranges produced now, have no pilot light. All have electric starters for range and oven. When the power goes out, most...
Best thing we did for a couple rounded out cast iron....ditch the glass top stove for an analog gas stove. They all fit perfectly now. We're...

A real thought for sure. So far I'm not sure at what point I'd rather have money than wood. From the second score, a couple loads are going...
Perhaps rake them off a little after slinging? Maybe a empty bleach bottle type scoop, or a coffee can? For the number of times i was out...
This summer overhaul, the first we've done has been good so far. The stove is 6 ish inches up off the floor today. The chimney got cleaned for...
Not quite hotter than all 4 hells...that'll be later. But its toasty. Chimney's cleaned, stove is jacked up, wire brushed in and outside of the...
Pulled the roof off the Jotul today, gonna remove the old seal, and brush the top, sunday, in the heat. Would like to get a coat of paint on...
