Thanks for stopping by for a chat. I am getting excited about this growing season and all the possibilities that begin in the spring. I buy most of my seeds from https://www.rareseeds.com/
also all of my seed trays are from bootstrap farmer and we are going on 5 years with the same trays.https://amzn.to/49dFHXk and the individual soil cups https://amzn.to/3ODXAq3


Starting to bake your own bread? Try this recipe. This makes 2 loaves.

1. Mix together in a large bowl, allow to sit 3-5 minutes.

2. Add salt and oil to the yeast mixture. Add flour and Knead 5-10 minutes. (dough should bounce back when poked)

3. Roll into a ball and place in an oiled bowl, cover and let rise for 1 hour.

4. On a floured surface knead dough agian for one minute. Divide in half. Shape into loaves and place in oiled pans.
