Writing..
I have actually always, kinda enjoyed it. I've had the mind at times to write a book about something or another. When the bright idea hit last year to write about the things I do, I was all into it!
.................. That's reality. Didn't even try to give a few periods.
I honestly don't know how some of these homesteading, chicken ninja, Marjory wildcraft, permitards do it. I have the animals. I have the plants. I have the property(a nice postage stamp). I have the live in farm hand(2 year olds count). Hell, I even have years, and years of first hand, live or die, learn quick when my Brindi cow's ready to gore me for the feed bucket experience..
But finding time to share what I know & do, and even reach new customers with it has proven to be a harder endeavor than I would have thought.
Soo. I have decided to breath new life into all This, and really try to write for any poor fool who's willing to read it!
It's Tfarms, but you know, its just a part of it. Growing isn't just for plants either, and it just happens to happen in the ever getting more crowded Florida.
I may have delusions of rivaling Justin Rhodes, Mike Adams, and even ..... David the Good.
Though, the great thing is I'll be happy with just one person ready my stupid on a regular basis. haha!
Later, to my readers! I will write way more often, and I will try to figure out videos & my own website & how to make it pretty like, too.
NEXT UP! Turmeric!
I paid a guy to dig up sum 300 pounds this year!
So come back.....

GLOBAL WARMING!... More like her bastard, Johny Deep FREEZE...
So.... I am from Massachusetts.
Lived in FL most of my life though. All in the central Florida area.
Not too often have I seen such devastation with the tropicals, and sub-tropical plants.
It just doesn't happen that often. A frost, a few times during winter is one thing. Its not
that big of a deal. A few burnt leaves, some lost fruit.....
We hit around 23 on my property the other night for over 3 hours, 25-30 the next.
It might have been colder, the damn wind doesn't help at all.
I lost mature star fruit trees to the trunk. Most of the bananas, except the largest, 20 foot
stalks, froze most of the way. They'll need to be cut back to a couple feet.
I even lost some figs and bamboo; I guess not all varieties are made of the same stuff!
Things will regrow, but the $$ lose from the "sale" plants in pots, and bud wood, cuttings is going to be huge this year.
Take what you will from the extreme cold this winter is bringing to the US, but don't fall so readily for the shouted BS........
I'm more in the boat of a coming ice age.. ;)
The GOOD news for the time being is BABY goats!
I had triplets born & a single during the cold blast. I was a bit worried, but they pulled through fine.
They only have leantos for shelter, because We normally don't have to worry about the cold.
