Episode 647 - Lessons Learned from installing a Food Forest Today is the first day of work after the Food Forest Workshop at the Holler Homestead. We had a great time with everyone and learned some unexpected things while here. Today is a recap of what we learned from trimming tree roots to shucking oysters.

Google what you know or go to YouTube and search for it and then learn a little, the task or repair or remediation might be easier than you think. Try asking the question with more and less details will sometimes help get you to an answer. So when your dryer is making noise, or your refrigerator is not working or your mower is not starting or your faucet is dripping, you may find the remedy is simpler then you thought. Or you may look into it and realize that you need help, but either way you will be better informed to make wise decisions.
