Time to take out some of the trees that have been shading the greenhouse during the fall.

Today in the aquaponics system, I remove the older broccoli plants and replace them with eggplant. Plus a look at the red wiggler composting worms hard at work and a quick peak at our lemon tree.

This is a solar food dehydrator that we use for our apples, peaches, and bananas. On a full sunny day, it can complete a few racks of fruit but usually we like to give it two days. I stated that it uses 2x3's for the frame but it's actually 2x4's.

Trying out another banana in the aquaponic system this year. Hopefully we can get some fruit out of it this year!

A viewer request was to show a video of the monster cucumber plant. This plant is on target to produce at least 150 fruits. I quickly shot this as the sun was setting to get some good lighting but it really isn't that great.

This is the final design of the rocket mass heater for the aquaponic geodesic dome greenhouse. It goes a bit above-and-beyond what the typical heater does!

It took several weeks to set the concrete block walls for the dome. It's a shame the entire foundation will be backfilled and you will barely be able to see it. It's really a work of art! ;-)

Finally, the dome structure is put together. But this isn't the end, there's still a lot more to go!

This is the male pileated woodpecker rapping the top of his tree, and then calling.
