week 8-- 237 miles. Past Silver lake on my way to Christmas Valley. 


CHICKEN MAZE
October shortly after letting the chickens into the oat field (planted in August.)


chickens scratching in the oat field this week.





The oat field experiment  was a great success. It was a fall cover crop, a winter distraction and feed for the chickens, and mulch for the rest of the winter. This summer I am going to try fava beans and barley for them in a different part of the garden.
