In the May-June 2023 issue of Small Farm Canada magazine we indulge in the sweetness of mead production in Canada including a small farm meadery directory. Ray Ford perseveres with milkweed for the sake of the monarch with a sensible, conservation minded approach. Raising goats could be sensible if you do your homework, find out more about the dairy, meat and fibre possibilities.
We also cover incubating chicks, boar training, foodflation fighting and food waste reduction. Dan Kerr is in the workshop discussing his top eight favourite repair and maintenance tools. Matt Jones reports on mixed grain or maslin planting an ancient method that could shake up modern milling traditions.
Last but never least, Dan Needles rounds out the issue by challenging our thinking on the charitable spirit of rural communities.
