To me crop rotation is important if you plant a lot of one thing in one place, and not really import if your crops are already interplanted.

Of course if theres a disease or pest in one area you might choose to plant elsewhere, but you’re less likely to have fungal or virus or even pest issues if you don’t plant all your potatoes in one big block, and they’re instead spread out with other types of plants between them.

You have access to the private forum.



Yes I do! Thank you very much!

Would you mind removing my email from the reply?

The willow feeder. My apple account is [[redacted]]

I miss the internet of 2003.

Hi, Sorry to say I'm another AppleID Kickstarter backer.

I signed up for Kickstarter forever ago and didn't use a hide-my-email or anything like that, Just the single-signon or whatever they call it to log in with your apple account. For most kickstarters they don't need to verify your email against a separate site so I hadn't run into this before. Is there anything you need me to do?

Just an update:

Our bucklings are growing SO fast. So The vet said that they're kinda stuck with what they've got horn-wise but that we'll watch for any little curls that might cause trouble.

I'm also not able to access the info links but I think my problem is that I used my apple ID to log into Kickstarter instead of an email.

I'm a little confused about this page? It says I can view the content but it's just a blurry photo and not a video?

That's exactly right. Thank you. :-)

I have informed the vet but he won't be down this way for another two weeks when he'll be giving them their shots at two months old. We've also planned for him to be back a month later for their boosters and castration surgery.

They're likely too old already to "try again" but there may be a surgical option available. I won't know until he gets a look at them in person.

Thank you for that information! It matches what I'm seeing (the parts that got missed) almost exactly!

I also haven't heard a peep from chip drop. We moved to Nova Scotia 3 years ago and it was only this past winter I learned that the lumber folks usually sell their chips and sawdust to the power companies who burn it for electricity. :-(

I get what you're saying but I mean ...
  • pretty much every soup I make starts with stock
  • I usually top salads hard boiled eggs and cheese and/or with store bought dressings that include egg
  • pretty much every casserole type thing I make has cheese in it as a structural ingredient.
  • even our store-bought GF pasta has eggs in it
  • I would have to look up vegan deserts because I literally don't know how to make any that don't contain milk or egg
  • I usually saute veg in margarine so I'd have to remember to get out the sunflower oil for that


  • I'm not saying it's hard to make vegan food. I'm saying that it does take thought for folks who aren't used to it.
