August/September 2014 Greetings to all our fans, helpers and sea gypsies out there. The autumn is here and with that comes harvest on sailing the farm. We got lots of raspberries this year which is partly stored in the freezer and partly as jam. Then some hundred jars of raspberry-honey from the bees and in the end we harvested the potatoes, so in sum: Yes we are partly selfsufficient, but it might be a little boring eating baked potatoes with raspberries and honey every day during the winter. :-) But we are slowly getting there... We are also getting closer with the boat project. All stuff made of fabric is finished, electricity (both AC and DC) is installed. There is still some more work to do on the engine before its ready to go into the boat (basically split and rebuilt that iron beast) Then there is some deck work left, and then the last step is tearing down the temporary boatshed to get ship the boat down to the sea. So still lots of work to do but its going forward. We wish you all a happy autumn whereever you are. Love from Sailing the Farm A sea gypsy tribe of tomorrow. Pics from last weeks of work. Pictures: a. 2 volunteers hitchiking up north to look for trolls. b: harvest honey from the bees. c. grinder work in the galley d mattress for the aft cabin e. volunteers out testing the flimsy canoe.
