This is only our third winter on the property so hard to say! I expect it's sort-of rare. This was the first winter I've tracked our firewood consumption and tried to relate it to ambient temperature data. It will take a few more years before I can really speculate on trends. My sense is that this winter was particularly mild, but we'll see...
Haha. That’s so nerdy. I do the same sort of thing with rainfall and water usage and monthly averages.
Curious to know what you do with all your ash? I’ve been working towards nixtamalizating our own corn using our wood ash (I don’t generate much, just occasional grill and outdoor oven use) but I’m not sure it’s hard wood.
I’ve just spent the last two days making biochar of our coconut husks using your gasifier design!
So sorry to hear about your loss but glad Granny got to meet yourElijah.
Congrats on the meat sales! All that hard work paying off.
How often do you have a snow-less winter?
