Happy Wednesday! Today is a homesteading day. We just got a whole cow in the freezer that we share among several families each year. The cow comes with bones. The bones become stock. And we end up with beef tallow.
The other day, someone asked me if beef tallow can be eaten, so I thought why now do a show sharing five recipe ideas for beef tallow. We will cover that, as well as what the heck tallow even is later in the show.
Today I want to talk to you about thinking ahead and why it is important to do so, but not at the expense of taking care of and living in the now. You see, we have been running at maximum capacity at Holler Roast Coffee and so have the letter carriers. Some packages are taking forever to arrive, others are there in a moment, and some might be lost forever. But as we navigate this busy time, we’ve been building in time to think ahead, create plan bs while handling plan as every day. So I will talk about how we are approaching that later in the show.
Today, we have a thought of the walk on what to do with bad behavior in communities – especially tight communities like the Living Free in Tennessee one.
Today, we discuss four great venison recipes — and I *might* have talked for a bit about how frustrating it is to be a small, startup food manufacturer…
Today, we will talk about how we processed the meat of three deer safely, while handling coffee orders, AND having a fantastic Thanksgiving. Because it is raining deer!
There is still time – still time to make something by hand and give it to someone you care about. I know that Christmas is coming fast, and tomorrow many of us will feast on turkey and pie, but you can still do it! Today, I will share four handmade gift ideas that you can still do in time for gift-giving season.
For years, I have struggled with organizing my house while also keeping things going on the business and animal care side of things. This year, I finally turned an organizing corner. It wasn’t asking myself if something brings me joy – though that is a good question. It was a decision followed by some founding concepts to keep the momentum going and I will share those foundations with you today.
Today we are pleased to invite the founders of Angie’s Gardens to share their small business development journey. Josh and Angie Reynolds started with permaculture, discovered herbal remedies, developed tasty and healthy teas, then added high quality CBD products to their growing business. They got started in one farmers market and now visit 6-7 per week, as well as supporting online orders. Find out more on today’s show.
Thanksgiving is only a week away and I just grabbed a turkey out of the freezer. This year, I thought it would be fun to share some experimental recipes we plan to have at the Holler Homestead. These are a little outside the norm this year because, well, I thought it would be fun to get outside the box and save the more traditional chestnut dressing and other sides for Christmas.
Today is 6 weeks until Christmas, six weeks to get your annual goals completed. It is time for the Final Countdown list. But all work and no play is not healthy, so we talk about what should be on your countdown list.
