Happy Winter Solstice! Within days, daylight will last a few minutes longer and we will be able to sense “the light at the end of the tunnel.” I’m looking forward to that… I’m trying to imagine what the winter solstice was like for so many cultures, especially in the northern hemisphere at higher

Red chickens can be clueless, as I discovered tonight just as the sun was setting. I had to rescue three of them from the goat pasture. Now, to be fair, I have only started letting all the hens out of their hen pasture during the day recently (after they’ve laid their eggs every
