Slaughtered one of our goats and she is now hanging in the fridge in our cold cellar ready to be exchanged for two lambs tomorrow. These will be raised for the canning and freezing later in the year. Also purchased more winter bee food slabs which will be put in our hives tomorrow to hopefully see t...

Car brought in, all weather tyres off and winter tyres on then battery removed. Temperatures are on the way down.

Finally I have started to extend our rabbitry. Today we rearranged all the current occupants and pegged out the boundary for extending the concrete base (once the weather improves) and started working on some new cages the design we have copied after purchasing one from a contact out here. We curren...

Not sure if this should be posted here or elsewhere I will leave up to the moderators to decide. Stocks of fuels for emergency use.

Not sure if this should be posted here or elsewhere so I will leave it up to the Moderators to relocate this post if required. I hope the following makes sense: I am looking at setting up our 2 x Emergency/Bug Out/Relocating Bags (1 for my partner and 1 for myself) from scratch. The equipment will a...

You can make a substance called "Bird Lime" from Mistletoe fruit or as they do here from Holly Bark. Put on a tree or twig the bird lands on it and cannot escape. Many wild birds can be used as a food source, I was introduced to crow meat here by our friends on a hunt who cooked it over an...

Not wanting to piss on anyone’s bonfire but this idea of going out hunting with a bow or whatever is close to being a prepper fantasy. Check out Gamekeeper John on YouTube (based in the UK) for hunting  with a slingshot. I brought home a pheasant today from my morning dog walk, 12mm BB to the head....
