And this is how harvesting honey before the farmer @TBone upgrade. The element of danger made it very exciting and much harder work.

One of our core values on our farm is 'find a better way'.
We can always do a little better and sometimes we can do a LOT better.

Farmer Tbone has been bringing in a bit more milk from our jersey Nina this week so I have been back into milk processing for the first time since having our baby.
I have successfully turned all that milk into queso fresco, riccota, buttermilk, sweet whey, butter, yoghurt, sour cream, icecream, clabber, kifir, muscapone and heavy cream.
@TBone brings in all the dairy we need and I get to turn it into all the foods we like to eat.
Thats a huge level up for our homestead and I'm taking all dairy items off our grocery list.. except the fancy cheeses because life without bree is not worth living 😂
