Another head done. Not boiled and not bleached. This process takes months but the quality is second to none. Museum quality with all the bones completely intact. #skull #deer #whitetaildeer

Bison chili started for tonight. Used the chili powder that @Jack Spirko recommended. Preliminary tastes are very good #foodstr #winter

Last night's moon rising. I know, my Christmas lights are still up. They are mostly encased in ice, so what the hell, I leave them on. #moon #montana #winter

Sorry about the poor quality photo, but it's always dark these days when I am home. Anyway, I thought I would share something that has never happened before. This is my first ever ground cover crop I planted in my raised beds. Still green and alive in December. In Montana. It has not been over maybe 40 in the past 6 weeks. It's been below zero once, and in the teens overnight almost every night. The only thing I can attribute this to is the addition of bio char and bioreactor compost for the first time at the beginning of the growing season. Mind blowing. Thanks @Jack Spirko #permaculture #compost #biology #covercrop
