Harvest 2013
Harvest 2013
Nothing new here, just a copy for my records before I wipe out the little side bar. My record keeping was bad last year, especially at butcher time. We butchered one female calf and two smallish pigs. Our neighbour also dropped off a bit of venison, since he had more than he needed. This is what I tracked though, so here it is.

Wendy,
ReplyDeleteThat is amazing. Do you date everything? Can you estimate or do you keep tabs of how much you must spend on food. What type food do you buy? I suppose with four growing boys, you and husband, this is not as much as it seems to me.
Thanks for posting this.
