The walnut tree I grew up playing in was felled last month after a long decline, terminated by honeyfungus. I'm making bowls from her limbs as gifts to the folks who helped that day.

Forged rose

What do you make when you have 30 minutes, and only 30 minutes?

Wine grape seedling growing back in its natural habitat

This daughter of #pinotnoir has survived this year's drought in poor, sandy soil, unaided. Her parent, grafted and watered throughout the heat wave, did not.

This year's #wildfermented wines

First was a motley of everything we could get from the garden: #pinotnoir #carbernetcortis #dornfelder and #regent. 1072 SG.

Second, we have some leftover #blaufränkisch from another batch and greenhouse raisins of #pinotnoir. 1092 SG. Stoked about this one.

Roe deer calf

According to the timestamp, it was there less than fifteen minutes before I got there to check on the camera.

Only a little terrified of this one

Ominous music precedes the ripening of this #carolinareaper.

Fermentation, fermentation, #fermentation

Today, we've got #sourdough starter, fruit #mead, and sodas from #sechuan and #blackcurrant. All working up to this weekend's workshop.

It's been an amazing year so far to learn about #beekeeping

Just added new supers to both #DIY hives, brood and honey coming along nicely in both. That said, plenty of challenges ahead.

DIY beehives

Simplest design I could think of that's still compatible with standard frames and quick to make, stackable and scalable.

Spring time means lots of birds active in front of the trail camera.

Pawpaw in bloom

This is a picture of our patience rewarded. Pawpaws are notoriously slow growers. These were grafted, but still took years to flower. It's so satisfying to see, finally.

CO2-neutral #blacksmith -ing

Had to share everything this class made in just over an hour, on their first try at #forging recycled scrap metal. For each kilogram of carbon burned in the forge, a kilogram of #biochar is fed to our woodland, sequestered for hundreds of years, and enhancing the #soil.
