Thread: Getting back to living off the land.....

Food security is: a wild goat chilling in the shade of a tree, a garden of veges, and fresh chook and duck eggs.

Yesterday's goat hanging in the cool shade of the big horse chestnut. The trick in summer is to go on afternoon hunts. That way you hang the goat, wrapped in a sheet to keep flies out, and it gets chilled quickly during the evening/night. There is a constant breeze under this tree so after cooling quickly overnight, the breeze keeps it cool in the heavy shade. It acts as an old time meat safe.
