24.01.2022 Spring poultry care from Organic Gardener Magazine: Spring is a delightful time in the poultry yard with hens back on the lay and, for those who keep a rooster, perhaps even chicks to enjoy. These tips from Jessamy Miller will help you make the most of this time.

24.01.2022 Elderberries are one of the most effective remedies for viral and bacterial infections such as colds and flu and can substantially shorten the duration of your illness if you get sick. This Elderberry Syrup recipe is as clean, simple, and healing as it gets, with none of the preservatives or additives you might find in some store bought brands. It’s also sweet and delicious, making it a fantastic remedy that even children will enjoy and take willingly. Elderberries contain sp...ecial proteins and bioflavonoids that have the ability to destroy viruses on contact that infect cells in the body. Elderberries are also known to have the ability to significantly enhance immune function by boosting the production of cytokines in the body. In addition, they are very beneficial for bronchial and respiratory problems and can help loosen and expel congestion in the lungs. Elderberry syrup is also rich in vitamin C and a wealth of other critical vitamins, minerals, antioxidants, and many nutrients undiscovered by science and research. Elderberry Syrup Ingredients: 3/4 cup dried elderberries 3 cups water 3/4 cup raw honey Optional additions: 1 cinnamon stick 1 whole star anise tsp whole cloves Place the dried elderberries and water in a medium-sized saucepan (with optional spices) on the heat. Cook on medium-high for 45 minutes to 1 hour, until thick and reduced by half. Remove and cool completely. Strain the syrup into a bowl, pressing the juice out of the berries with a wooden spoon and discarding the whole spices. Whisk in the raw honey and pour into jars. For health maintenance, enjoy 1 tablespoon per day. For assistance in recovering from a cold or flu, enjoy 1 tablespoon 3 times per day. Makes: 1-2 cups Repost from @medicalmedium #medicalmedium #elderberrysyrup

22.01.2022 Our flowform water feature is both practical and beautiful. It creates an ambiance that is both inviting and calming. The secret is in the rhythmic movement of the water, making sounds like those of a real mountain stream or waterfall. #flowform #fountain #biodynamics #courtyard Mark Baxter

20.01.2022 More than 60 public electric vehicle charging stations are being built this year around regional New South Wales, Victoria and Queensland in a bid to make electric cars a more practical option in regional Australia. But will this be enough to make electric vehicles (EVs) work in the bush?

17.01.2022 Broccoli: Nutrient All-Rounder Broccoli is an all-purpose multivitamin for the body, plus it contains bioavailable trace minerals and other nutrients that enhance all body systems, including the entire immune system. Nature made broccoli in this way, with a balance that can’t be matched, to offer a little something for every organ, gland, bone, nerve, and more in the body. Cruciferous vegetables, including broccoli, but also cabbage, collard greens, broccoli rabe, cauliflower..., brussels sprouts, kale, arugula, and mustard greens, are especially good for lung health; because of their sulphur-rich nature, every single vegetable in this family restores and stimulates the growth of lung tissue. Sulphur is one of the only minerals that branches out into other forms of itselfa chemical process that science has discovered at a surface level and has yet to tap into in its full meaning. Cruciferous vegetables contain two types of sulphur, one in macromineral form and the other as an accompanying micro-sulfur trace mineral. Together they permeate lung tissue to help stimulate growth, regeneration, and healing, and they also restore and recover lung scar tissue. Crucifers are also rich in vitamins such as B vitamins and A, C, and E. How To Use: Enjoy broccoli raw or steamed, in salads, as a crudité with a healthy dip, stir-fried, in soups, and so on. Broccoli can also be enjoyed baked, although you’ll receive more benefits from broccoli when it’s raw or steamed. Repost @medicalmedium #medicalmedium #broccoli #cruciferousvegetables

17.01.2022 Lots of friends and family for the long weekend and school holidays #full house plus #campers

16.01.2022 Seen on the wall of a Hahndorf SA Museum. This well known saying expressed the early German settlers determination that nothing grown or fed from the land would be wasted. This attitude to farming reflected the traditions of peasant farmers who had for centuries eked out a living on the poor soils of eastern Germany.... They firmly believed that, no matter how poor, the land was given in trust by God to be carefully husbanded and conserved for generations to come. #lutheranism #hahndorf_southaustralia

12.01.2022 New research into the minds of crows has revealed a jaw-dropping finding: the canny corvids aren't just clever - they also possess a form of consciousness, able to be consciously aware of the world around them in the present. In other words, they have subjective experiences.

Although it doesn't look like much right now check out our plans created by N A Hill Designs!

11.01.2022 Kookaburra Did you know that: Kookaburras are almost exclusively carnivorous, eating mice, snakes, insects, small reptiles, and the young of other birds; unlike many other kingfishers, they rarely eat fish, although they have been known to take goldfish from garden ponds. #australianbirds #kookaburras

10.01.2022 Who doesn’t love a poppy? Petals in clear shades of orange, yellow, pink, coral, crimson or white catch light and both absorb and refract the light, creating a glow of translucent colour. Thickly grown plants will still look fairly good but some flowers will be small due to competition between plants for light. Honeybees love poppies. Poppies produce pollen, not nectar, and primarily in the morning. If you look into a poppy bloom early in the day you will likely see a number ...of honeybees circling the dense frilly anthers held at the base of each petal, an activity called wallowing. For cut flowers, cut them at mature bud stage just as they are cracking open and immediately burn the end of the flower stem. (Cut poppies apparently secrete a milky sap that keeps water from getting to the flower. Searing the end of each stem will keep the sap from escaping and allow the poppy to drink water). You can also just put stems directly into water. It is very easy to save seed from poppies. Wait until the seed pods are dry. You can then choose to just scatter seed over areas you want them to grow. You can collect seeds in a paper bag. Dry them in a paper bag for a few weeks, then transfer seed to a sealed Ziploc bag kept in a cool, dry place until fall. Each seed contains an unknown colourful reward. #poppies #honeybees

05.01.2022 Fourth generation potato farmer Garry Kadwell from the Goulburn region of NSW has taken out the top title of Producer of the Year in the 2020 delicious. @harveynormanau Produce Awards. His Andean Sunrise potatoes an 8,000 year-old variety from Peru have amassed a cult following among chefs, for their nutty, buttery flavour and smooth, waxy texture.
