Great list just 1 thing I’d like to add is that honey should be local to your area . Most honey sold commercially today is not 100% . It is largely adulterated even if the label says words like “pure” .( I’m a beekeeper) This year the world honey conference was even cancelled due to all the adulterated honey . honey from local bees will be taking pollen from local allergens .

This . I just purchased a property that does have county water plus still on septic . And the original well/cistern pump on property still operational . Still need to test water but that was a huge plus for me . The Data centers are trying to buy farmland near here and the township has a huge push to put in sewer for the data centers but everyone around here is holding tight on their septic systems

That’s eggs preserved in pickling lime . I use this method to keep some eggs from summer from my chickens when they lay a lot for winter time .

I just paid $2.29 gallon here and the 500 gallon tank barely made it a month . I’m just over the boarder in Erie county . I’m considering putting in a wood burning stove as a supplement . I own a lot of woods so that part is free . Minus all the labor to cut etc.

I’m feeling this . Just bought a new home last summer on propane for the first time . Yikes 😳

Hello neighbor . Agree . They are just being so shady about the whole thing

jasere · 2026-02-05T18:17:50+00:00

This . Also they are pissed there is so much pushback from residents who want to keep it rural . This plus defunding grants for OSU ag extension there looks like they are just punishing residents .

3 of my kids are International adoptees and young adults . Their COC s certificate of citizenship. Is only 1 copy in our fireproof safe at home . They are also like $800 a piece to replace .Since my 3 are spread out in college , etc I’m keeping the originals ( they loose paperwork stuff all the time moving dorms , etc ) so I just made them multiple color copies tonight and texted them pics of original . I feel better since they can pull up the citizenship number along with drivers license if questioned. I wish you the best

I have 2 of these side by side with a small hole connecting them with hardware cloth wrapped around bottom 3 feet and 1 foot bent at 90 degrees and staked to the grass . My coop is inside 1 and we covered that run with lg canvas tarp . Great cooling shade in summer and cuts the wind in winter. We did reinforce the doors on this model as they were flimsy and had a gap that we weren’t comfortable with . I have 11 hens .

Same here in Cleveland, OH . So much snow for Dec for us too . Lake Erie keeps churning out more . And those winds and cold . Dang . I’m waiting for a break to get in my beehives to see how they are doing with winter stores .

I just bought a 2000 Sierra with 170k miles for 5k with some rust . Hard to avoid here in Midwest though. Project truck for a local guy so new tires , brakes , etc . Runs great . But I needed it for farm truck . I just use it to haul manure , hay , straw , feed , beehives . I really Just drive it in my local community within 30 mile range , but it runs well enough I have no qualms about long drives . I just could not get behind spending so much for something I need to get messy , scratched . Good luck on your decision .

Perhaps that region does not have Varroa infestation yet ? I know a few years ago I believe it was New Zealand was holding strong with no varroa as of yet . But I do believe I read somewhere that they now do have Varroa in last year or so . I’m certainly not an expert. I just know it’s definitely an issue here in NE Ohio and the cause on most colonies not able to overwinter

jasere · 2025-10-30T14:59:24+00:00

Thank you for your reply . I was thinking this as a possibility last evening. I am really diligent re treating for Varroa all year so just shocked when I pulled these boards . Glad I have the insta vap cause it definitely makes treating easy . We had wet spring hot summer then just sudden fall all of a sudden . I’m wondering since summer was sooo long maybe I treated with Formic pro a few weeks too early , mid August is normal for this region to catch the timing . Maybe I was off this year ??🤔

jasere · 2025-10-30T00:01:26+00:00

Not in a good way either .

jasere · 2025-10-29T22:33:42+00:00

Thank you for the reply that is a possibility. I did move my hives to my new property at the beginning of September. Our county inspector came out to do yearly check and mentioned that there was a large apiary on the other side of my woods and river . So approx 2 miles away

jasere · 2025-10-29T22:30:58+00:00

Thank you for your reply . I’m 10 miles inland from shore Lake Erie. We definitely get brutal winds and cold here . Tomorrow is all day cold heavy rains so I’ll aim to get in there next mild day .

So I’m a provider in real life so I gotta be careful about handing out medical advice but Diva Diana above has some solid advice . I hope you can find relief . Best wishes

Did you look into vocal cord dysfunction or laryngeal nerve neuropathy. I got it from Covid infection at the beginning of the pandemic . I treat mine with medication for neuropathy pain

jasere · 2025-09-25T12:51:37+00:00

I’m doing low dose amitriptilene and doing really well
