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

Finally have the chance to get back to my old lifestyle of trying to live off the land. Was away from home, or part time here for about 5-years due to family circumstances. So great to be doing it again.....


Pretty much everything off the property or hunted. Salad of; lettuce, purple mustard, broad bean shoots, nasturtium leaf, mint, spring onion, radish and borage flowers all of the property. The tomatoes, cheese, sunflower seeds, peanuts all bought. Salad dressing of freshly squeezed grapefruit juice (grapefruit from Stratford Crop Swap) and bought sesame oil. Poached duck egg from my ducks and a loin off last week's hunted goat.


Last nnight's dinner; where everything except the spices, sunflower seeds and peanuts came off the property; or was hunted.. Dry-fried wild goat mince cooked with bought spices and home-grown bay, mint and oregano. Salad of; chickweed, lettuce, purple mustard, nasturtium leaves and flowers, broad bean tips, lemon balm, parsley, mint and borage flowers. Two Chinese-style black tea and soy cured duck eggs.
