Deb's snow...





ST Thomas, Ontario - February


This is our sidewalk to the mailbox. 
The snow on the right side of the screen is over my knees!
In places it is 3 feet deep but this is a sheltered area.


THIS however, is our front yard and the neighbour across the streets yard, 
photographed from my front door.
Somewhere under all that is a 2 lane road with parking on one side!

Winter came to Stuttgart (Germany)

Since the time I moved in Stuttgart, Germany I haven't experienced extreme winter like the ones in Chicago. My In-laws also told me not to expect such huge snow pile-up like the ones in the US because we're located in the southern part of Germany. Most snow pile ends up in the Alps.

On the other hand when we do get enough snow, I get such breathtaking views such as these:

Hello Everyone,

I thought it might be fun for all of us to post a photo of our front yard.  This is mine on February 11, 2015.  And it is snowing again . . .

Swimming Upstream Project

On Thursday, February 12 at 8:00 a.m. EST, the Farm Living Coop will embark on its first attempt at completing the Swimming Upstream project.  This project will require Coop members to start a production of Chicken Feed 2,800 times.  To make the project even more interesting, it must be done in almost 3 days (2 days and 19 hours to be exact).

So... How can the Coop complete this project on time and what can all of us do to ensure success?  First, try to upgrade your Windmill to the highest level possible before the start of the project.  That way you can make more feed at one time without harvesting as often.

Second, be sure you have very little chicken feed in your inventory.  This may require you to feed your chickens all the feed in your inventory before the start of the project.  Why?  Because you will be making a bunch of feed and if you eclipse the maximum amount in your inventory, you will be making feed at a loss.

Third, have the max amount of corn in your inventory.  This will be necessary as corn is required to make chicken feed.  In this case, no corn=no chicken feed.

Once the project has started, be sure to continue the cycle of feeding your chickens, planting and harvesting corn, and producing chicken feed.

How do you think the Coop will do with its first ever Swimming Upstream project?  What is your opinion of this project?  What are you going to do with all those eggs?  Leave your comments below.

Happy Farming and good luck to all!!
