Description
This week our farm updates are simple as the season is slowing down to just the basics. We talk about the plantings in the gardens in the greenhouse since frost is now in our area. We are hoping to extend the season and keep harvesting vegetables and herbs for several more months. There's also updates about pigs in pasture as well.
In the Ruminations discussion this week we talk about businesses and how so many let opportunity slip through their fingers. We share the details of a cheese making class we took at a local winery and the missed opportunities that were everywhere. There's lessons to be learned in bad expereinces and this one was rife with them. Although - making your own cheese is cool!
We also talk about a business that asked us for input and HOPED we might mention them - FlexTrailers. It's a cool concept on modular trailers. It's a much better approach to a business than the first one (they asked us clearly for feedback and hoped we would mention them). There are still some lessons to be learned here as well.
The final business we talk about is Adams Holsters - the makers of the BEST leather holsters you have ever seen - Adams Holsters - and one of the best gifts we have ever received from a coopcast listener!
