The Covers n All package I ordered in January with the wrong address arrived today. Glad that ordeal is resolved. It snowed heavy this last week with about 4" covering everything so the tarps will remain in the 120 lb. tube until the ground is clear again.

Reading and studying the concept and instructional book "Gaia's Garden: Second Edition A Guide to Home-scale Permaculture by Toby Hemenway

There is a lot I have done this last year that is in this book, so my head was in a compatible place for building a thriving ecological garden environment. {Gee, maybe my college biology course in Ecology actually stuck.} There is still a long way to go yet for a complete bio-diverse convergence into a Food Forest though.

Amanda is talking chickens. I've been pondering on chickens also off n on this last fall and winter. But at the moment, building an ecologically sound base to support chickens is on the forefront of my mind.

So that is where my head is at today.
