A list of things I want to….

learn more about, research, try and think about in 2016.

New things to learn for possible selling stuff from the shed:

Rum map crafts – Christmas baubles, magnets, boxes, pendants, clocks (Rum time?!)

Baskets, willow weaving etc.

More stuff with Ady’s photos – mugs, bags, canvas prints

Things to try and do on the croft

Livestock

Beekeeping – work out how it would work, where is the best location on the croft, cost out getting started, make some contacts, look at courses. Explore actual potential of honey / beeswax etc.

Sheep – where from? Logistics of getting them here, feed and health regimes, best breeds.

More with pork next year – curing, smoking, more experimenting with recipes.

Crops

Feed for pigs, can we grow crops for that?

Make more use of polytunnel
