    I like the idea of your website and I even like the style you have. The music in your videos is generally pretty likable too. However, you convey very little information in each section of this site. Like the one about pie. What do we learn about homesteading? "Go pick some berries!" What about the crust? What about the stuff you mix to get that sauce...

  • this website is a joyful contribution; of course there are ways to make it better, easier, more clear, whatever; life is a lot of work and it will never be perfect. the fact that it is up and people care enough to make comments is great. I loved this sentence from Jeff's review in March: "It’s cute as shit, but both videos border on self-congratulatory ma...

    just received a packet of your marigold seeds. indeed they are marigolds, but the latin name you have designated them by is wrong.

    Tagetes is the genus for marigold.

    I grew up on 5 acres in what "was" rural Minnesota. We had little money but we did have 5 gardens, (one was totally potatoes), and fruit trees. We bought a little meat and canned and preserved "everything" and even made out own Ketchup and Sourkrout. I am not a young person. I read the Briarpatch Books, Mother Earth News, Coevelolution Quarterly, and all of ...

I have to honestly say that I have never heard of humanure before. It looks like you have found a great niche and combined a simpler world with the high paced Internet world in an excellen...
