Hi Pals,  I  wanted to do worm farming to feed my chickens and make compost.  I  was wondering if anyone could recommend a kit to get started,  I  was going to get uncle Jim's worm cafe, but I saw that it might be backordered?  Does any of ya'll do worm farming?

Hi Pals,  I'm new here.  I'm interested in wood for eating and cooking as well as a lot of other topics.   I'm wondering how practical and technical it is to install a rocket mass heater in my home.

Firstly, where do you get the wood?  I  can get woodchips from a tree company, but the logs they have are too big I think...

Secondly,  installing a rocket mass heater would be expensive and technical because you would have to do major alterations to the home .

Thirdly, are there any codes and does it benefit the value of the house, in case you have to sell?  And are there contractors that will it?

I'm trying to get to the bottom of this before I get started.  I  definitely think this is on to something because I pay over $100 with gas and I know someone that pays over $500 for electricity in the winter.

Hi  Pals,....I  live in Easton PA.  I'm new here.  I  have a garden and chickens.  I'm interested in wood stoves and rocket stoves.  Any ideas on getting started?  

I  got a permaculture design done on my yard a few years ago.  I  planted vegetables and trees and I like it.  I'm trying to be more self sufficient now.  I'm making compost and I'm going to get a wood chip drop.  Now I'm interested in rocket stoves and wood stoves for a back up energy source that is affordable and efficient.

I'm also interested in other topics.  It would be great to meet like minded people close by as well.
