Bamboo

Moso. We have this Bamboo growing but it will not reach this size for a while yet.

For now we barter with the neighbors.

Native Sundew

New Zealand has some beautiful carnivorous plants if you know where to look. This is one of the special ones growing on our farm.

Charcoal

Charcoal to make resin glue, fire the kiln and for my crayon  making experiment.

Charcoal kiln

Keeping the charcoal kiln stoked is a very important job. A lot of the fire is coming from the downdraft of gasses.

Walnut cracker

My favorite Walnut cracker.

Two bits of wood and an old hinge.
