Home School

This year our family decided to finally put in a garden. Not just any garden. Oh no we go BIG or go Home! We chose a Staw Bale Garden.  Why you ask?  Here are a few reasons as to why we put in this type of garden:

*75% less labor

*Raised height, easy planting

*NO weeding

*Extends the growing season

*Higher germination on seeds

*Predictable performance

*Impossible to overwater

*Holds moisture well

*Creates new media yearly

*Easy to move location

*Automated water daily is okay

*No crop rotation needed

For these kits you need a wide mouthed canning jar (with lid and ring) 4 candles (like the one in the pictures) you can find these at Wilderness survival gear online for .99 cents each but they go down in price if you buy them in bulk. They are 5″ x 1.5″ candles will burn for 8 to 10 hours. I made 5 jars – one for each level of my home then extra’s just in case.

It's often when you need a fire most—during rain, wind, or snow—that it's the hardest to start. Here's how to do it.

It's an axiom of survival that when you need a fire—really need it with the snow blowing and the evening drawing down like a burial shroud—you need it now. And you need it big.
