Wow, this is an old thread.  Still great stuff.
I've seen some of our favorites...Cattan, Spoons, Monopoly. Our daighter-in-law is great to play ganes with her children. We also enjoy doing puzzles as a family which has been annual Christmas gathering event of long standing.

I especially enjoy Set, Sequence and Hand and Foot.  The last gathering at the family farm,  (20 years ago?) we had  at least 15 people around rhe dining room table playing H&F... pretty exciting!

A new game for us thisbgg year is Qwerkle. Great for all ages.  The first time we played it with our family, the 6 year old smoked us all! It was great!

Since so many other places are closed down, to give her vets something to do at the local American Legion, my daughter has board game tournaments going.  They are loving it.

Lovely!  I truly enjoy learning about all things permaculture.

I was excited to check out this other source with great hopes of ordering from them only to discover they are not taking orders atm. My email query came back from a mailer daemon. So back to the scythe company (with its six week lead time) I went. Hopefully by the beginning of July I will be happily mowing my yard with my new scythe.

Still the  marugg website is very informative and includes a pretty comprehensive and entertaining ebook on Scything.  I highly recommend checking it out.

What a great thread.  I'm definitely jumping in on this band wagon. Thanks!!!

Woohoo... I have wool socks that need darning. I may even have some sort of wooden thing that will work in place of the mushroom.  Starring the email.  I'll Be Back...

Hi Dr Sharol and everyone!  The gifts of the earth and herbs are so comprehensive.  I'm looking forward to reading your book and  learning more about these amazing treasures.  God bless you! Anita

I don't know what your entire situation is , but my inclination would be to fence it and put goats on it after harvest. They'll clean up the unwanted things and won't mind the thorns. Then you could plant and rearrange to your hearts content and the Elderberries should come through with flying colors, happier for the haircut, no?!?

These are by the way only thoughts.  I am just beginning to making a foray into the world of all things Elderberry.  Can't wait to see what you do!

Delightful! Thanks for all your excellent work.

No huckleberries here but will be planting some real elderberries, serviceberries and hazelnut soon.  Will that do for a pie? I could make a real one to bring to the PDC.  🤔😏😁😁😁. Maybe elderberry cordial would be a better option. 😘
Have a lovely day everyone!

If you quick sign up for the grow network 2019 summit you may get in on the last day of replays. (Free yet today and only $150? I think to buy the whole package of seminars, including one from Wheaton Labs!  Well worth it!)
