Farming, writing and water pumps at Woodhenge

Okay, there are lots of events happening in my life. If my blogs seem a bit disjointed, please forgive me.

Our farm is growing. We just finished planting 160 fruit trees and berry bushes. These were supplied by St. Lawrence Nurseries in Potsdam, NY. They specialize in heirloom, and nativized plantings for zone 3! A high quality and interesting supplier. We're in the process of laying ot 3000' of drip irrigated truck farm crops for retail in our area. The water is supplied by solar powered pump from a well we had drilled in the ag. field last year. We're also developing a CSA with an on site commercial kitchen for canning and otherwise preserving our produce. I'm also working with another local farmer (certified natural meats) on producing a pilot for a show we're calling "Crude Food", on how food is grown, preserved and used. Keeping it simple and fun...Kind of a "Red Green Show for food.

My book is out, The High Art and Subtle Science of Scrounging is available for $20 plus $5 postage and handling. It covers a lot of territory on how to get life's basic needs for little to no cost. Housing, transportation, food, kids and money, bartering and trading ethics and a lot more
are some of the topics.

The deep well pump plan sets and kits will be available for purchase shortly. e-mail me at jsjuczak@gisco.net for further information on any of the above.
