  • Wicked Good Moose Meat Chili Recipe

    If you have never had Moose meat you are missing out on something great, In “The Maine Woods”, Henry David Thoreau described its taste as, “like tender beef, with perhaps more flavor; sometimes like veal”. That is as close as a description of it as I will try. Moose meat ...

  • Sorry for no updates on the red wiggler composting worms

    I got an email from one of our first followers asking about the red wiggler worms. The worms are doing great. I read all about what needs to be done to take care of worms but I still made a bunch of rookie mistakes. I put too much food in ...

  • Appletrees everywhere but no apples are ripe enough to eat

It took me all of 30 seconds to confirm what I already knew, I needed a riding lawn mower if I am going to mow our new property. After a little over 3 hours mowing with my friends mower  the belt broke. This put the ball in motion that landed me ...

I only had an hour before I had to be at work, but it was a relaxing hour on an overcast day in Northern Maine mowing the lawn. I realize a lot more now that the 10 acres is a lot of land to mow. The part that I have ...
