  • Updates & animal shenanigans!
    I'm back! It's taken multiple attempts to record this episode due to various life chaos but here it is! I start with some quick personal updates, a little sad news (RIP Petal), homestead and hive news, and then I share some funny animal stories from the last few weeks. Thanks for your patience with me! Please check out my Instagram for photos of things discussed. (Marked explicit due to some light cursing.) Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

  • My current nemesis: Thistle!
    This week, I talk about thistles! How can we identify them? Are they good for pollinators? How do we destroy and conquer the invasive species? Will I be digging them up forever?? (Probably, yes)All this and more in episode 70!*References: https://weedwise.conservationdistrict.org/2017/thistle-identification.htmlhttps://deepgreenpermaculture.com/2021/04/21/how-to-neutralise-glyphosate-roundup-herbicide-contamination-in-soil/https://besjournals.onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/10.1111/1365-2664.13867https://www.science.org/content/article/common-weed-killer-believed-harmless-animals-may-be-harming-bees-worldwidehttps://www.sciencedirect.com/science/article/abs/pii/S0048969721004654https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/32723788/ Hosted on Acast.

  • Relaxed Fit! Updates & Bee Chatter
    I'm back! Hurrah! This week, I share all the news from the homestead, including chicken updates, bee colony progress, and why I am drinking a gin & tonic at 4 in the afternoon! Then I get into some bee chatter; where I analyze a question from one of my mentees, and go through my thoughts on the topic. Warnings for bad language (sorry, mum), discussion of chicken prolapse, alcohol chat (I bought fancy gin!), and mention of surgery.Links:Hendrick's Gin Flora Adora (it's flower and pollinator inspired!)Queenright Colonies' Beekeeping Calendar17th Century Beekeeper Saying Hosted on Acast.

    Happy Friday! I hope you will enjoy this addition to my 'farm story' episodes.

  • Baby Raccoon Attack??
    I'm back after my short break! Thank you for your patience.This episode starts with some updates on my sad-sack-ness and why I haven't uploaded anything for 2 weeks. I also talk about my hives (up to 2 colonies now!), and my garden (what is planted, what's growing, what's in bloom, etc).Then we get to the main story, which will not be for everyone. Listener discretion advised! I tell the story of two baby raccoons who appeared to willfully throw themselves into the jaws of death (aka my dogs). Frank discussion of animal death, rabies, and vaccinations. Skip if that isn't your thing!My next episode will be much less depressing (I hope)! Hosted on Acast.
