Remember when we did our first bigger project in the woods?  That project happened to be our fire pit.  We used products we already had laying around in the woods.  And got some pea gravel from the local stone quarry to finish it.  Well, we loved and used that fire pit so many times, but […]

We are in full fledged end-of-summer mode around here. The garden is doing fairly well for just getting it planted mid-June.  We have enough tomatoes right now to have 1-2 for every meal including breakfast.  But, I have a feeling in about 2 weeks or so, we will have an overabundance of them and have […]

Are you up to date on the garden and chicken coop progress?  If you watch social media stories, you may be.  But if you aren’t, you have a lot to catch up on.  Make sure to check out all chicken coop related posts and the garden posts.  We have been working as much as we […]

We recently added some solar lights to the chicken coop run.

This is something we are doing over on our social media stories.  And, I wasn’t sure if I even wanted to share this experiment over here on debanddanelle.com.    But, since I like to document pretty much everything we do on the property, I figured I had to.  So…. have you heard of Electroculture?  Wait, […]

We are on the latter part of this HUGE project.. project veggie garden.  Deb and I both have said that we didn’t think this garden would take this long.  Ha.  And lots of people over on social media say that they can’t believe we got this much done so fast.  Maybe when you are actually […]
