A few images from our weekend . . .
And Ella, busy kneading dough at the bakery. She's very determined. (I have no idea where she gets that from.)
And lastly, I thought I'd share a little reading list, what's been on our must-read shelf lately. A few of these (with the *) are for sale at Wheatberry, since we're now very happy to carry some books from Chelsea Green Publishing Co. Any that aren't for sale by us, I highly recommend getting from the library, or your local fabulous bookstore, such as Food for Thought Books.
Eco-Farm by Charles Walters Ben is loving this book, which is actually a lot older than you might guess by the title (this is the third release). A lot of info on how to understand (and manage) the balance of minerals in your soil, to create healthy plants with high nutritional value.
Last-Minute Patchwork and Quilted Gifts by Joelle Hoverson. Totally gorgeous, with projects ranging from less than 2 hours up to 12+. Has got my quilting creativity flowing . . . more on that soon!
*Small-Scale Grain Raising by Gene Logsdon A classic, recently re-released. All sorts of info on all sorts of grain, designed for small farms or even home gardeners.
*The Winter Harvest Handbook by Eliot Coleman The latest from the modern Mac Daddy of organic farming. Because it's never to early to start planning for winter in New England.
Oh, and lastly, if you haven't met our lovely WOOFer Jeanine, yet, here she is.
That's all for now! More later this week. Hope you have a great one!
GREAT photo of Ella kneading bread! What fun.
