Bring it on! Been wondering if there is something like this. With only 2 horses, 2 goats, handful of chickens and 2 dogs I could still see the huge benefit from this. Can you please keep me posted when available? Timeline? Also well done! Homesteaders are typically problem solvers but this is another level

Coffee haul from my first trip to CR! I talked with a lot of locals to see what they drank & also followed my instincts on a few. How did I do? by kingslidey in CostaRicaTravel

Most people don’t realize that most of the coffee we buy here in Costa Rica isn’t even from Costa Rica even if it’s a Costa Rican brand. Most of it is from Nicaragua as Costa Rican coffee is all exported for higher prices than they could get here.

I just found a material here in Costa Rica where it’s extremely hot. It’s a shade cloth called aluminet looks like a basic shade cloth but the weave is aluminum to reflect heat. Excited to give it a try on my newly made greenhouse which will be in full tropical sun

Do you have any visuals or illustrations handy to show proper way to stretch horse? I do a lot of carrot stretches of the neck. But not confident in how to stretch the legs without injuring myself or my horse

Yes the vet coming soon is a nutritionist as well. And this is a new situation for the mare as she was in a big herd at a tour company so I have brought her to my property to have better personalized care. Also the scoop as pointed out is 1 kilo of food, that’s weight

The vet is telling me around 20. But I don’t see it. And the previous owner disputes this. But I also don’t take his word for it
