While
our chickens have been enjoying the sunny north pasture (with a few
younguns in the ragweed forest annex of the south pasture), I’ve put
our oldest pasture to work growing grains. This new facet of the
farm has been a learning experience, and I’ve mostly been posting about
our successes and failures over on our homesteading blog.
For those of you who don’t read our other blog regularly, here are a
few posts you might want to check out:

rundown on our winter wheat harvest - A
summary of all of our grain experiments to date - 2011
grain experiments, using seed balls and new varieties
I hope our reports get
the wheels turning in your head about growing your own chicken feed!
