This time of year Poke is getting tall and the berries are turning dark purple.

Here is a video I made about this much misunderstood plant.

I recently put a roof on my chicken coop made from pallet wood shingles.

I made a video about how I use jewelweed to treat poison ivy.

Here is a video of me walking around and pointing at stuff on my property.

I have a very tricky piece of land to garden on...

Here is how I do it:

I’m so glad it’s finally done!

Again, be proud of your fowl luxury resort !

You nailed it. Roofing materials have become outlandishly expensive. I wanted a water shedding roof on the run but couldn't afford typical roofing panels. The price of these Clear Heavy Duty Clear See-Through Tarp Fiber Reinforced (14 Mil Poly Tarp) (that's a link) made it conceivable to buy and even replace without breaking the bank.

Additionally, it is available in a ridiculous number of shapes and sizes.

Thanks for your kind words too!

What a clever build...

Will there be a chicken door between the coop and the interior of the run?

Hey thanks! Yeah there is an auto chicken door from the coop into the run. I currently have the separate brooder door sealed up.

I slogged through the winter and early spring working on a total teardown and redesign of my coop and run.

Will be moving the chicks in very soon.

Here is a quick overview of my new set up.
