Last year we finally got some chickens and are currently getting about 3-4 eggs daily! Love not having to buy eggs now, plus the chickens are actually pretty great for eating grubs in the garden as well!

@gemalaya i love millet! It’s so tasty too - great with maple syrup and butter for breakfast or with salt and olive oil for lunch. I’ve been making really tasty millet muffins lately too!

I live and work at the Benson Place, a blueberry farm in western Massachusetts. My family has goats, chickens, rabbits, and we grow just about every vegetable which can survive on our windy mountaintop. We produce over 50% of our own food by value. I know many geminauts are interested in these things, and I'd be interested to hear what kind of food-growing endeavors you are up to!
