Braiding Corn
I would not call it an art form. It is just the way corn sorting, drying, and storing was described by Buffalo Bird Woman in an old history of Native American Agriculture I read years ago (and honestly still go … Continue reading
Hidatsa Shield X Dragon Tongue
3rd year stable. First year of a fairly large increase in seed stock. No loss of this to critters this year so I am grinning inside regarding it. Pods set 9 to 13 seeds which is a huge amount for … Continue reading
Pink Flour Corn
I am going to split things into a couple of different posts. We have been exceptionally busy, and not all of what I would consider good. There have been issues with the gardens and predation by animals. Patti lost her … Continue reading

So I Was Up To Mowing
I visited the Ness farm right after we got back from vacation. At the time I was in far too much pain from the drive home from vacation to do more than take a few pics and weed a few … Continue reading
How A 3 Year Old Buck Tastes Fantastic
I am a meat hunter. No apologies about that. Deer are food. Regulations require me to not shoot a buck deer unless it has 4 or more points on one side. Last year that meant that I took a really … Continue reading

Minnetonka Garden Update
I have a few days to catch up on, but I am going to split them into multiple posts. Just too variant too put into one. On Wednesday I met Frank at the Minnetonka garden to do maintenance work. That … Continue reading
