Wendy on Self-reliant Skills
WEB Reference, July 2005 (Peace and Carrots Farm) - If you are reading Homesteader's Connection, you are probably doing or thinking about doing many self-reliant skills. Perhaps you raise goats for milk, meat and manure, chickens, a cow, pig or whatever. We do this for many reasons: flavor, control of own food supply, saving money and being as self-sufficient as possible. This is simply what many of us feel is the best way to live. Along comes an ice storm, unexpected power outage, a time of job loss, under-employment or y2k. Instead of being life threatening, these bumps in the road are just one more challenge. We are already living a life of our own choosing, in a way that honors ourselves, our families, the land and the critters in our care. http://www.homestead.com/peaceandcarrots/May.html.

Eggs Begone
ELIST, July 29, 2005 (Ecology North member, Paul Falvo) - Given up finding free range eggs? Fuggedaboudid. Co-op sells Celi-Mix EGG REPLACER. Great for baking, pancakes, etc. It contains tapioca flour and some other natural ingredients. You mix it with some water and "poof!" -- forget the eggs. Gluten-free. Made in Winnipeg. So, give the chickens a break. Avoids the hassles and energy required for shipping fresh eggs North. (Use at your own risk.)
