    All for that, exactly why we are working so hard on our community to support Kindergarten and school. For generations to come together and work together on our future.

    Nana is doing fine, but she does not eat so much hay wonder why. Cutting her back on feed, just give her for the day. She digs out the feed and eating it from the bottom, strange eating habits. Getting hay block, gras and lucerne pallets but still wonder why she will not eat mutch hay.

    Thank you Gid for doing justice!

    Please help out this farmer, maybe you can setup something to collect money and stuff he needs. Now he will have to fight to get his stuff back, may justice be served. It our future to, our rights and for the next generations.

    In Europe it is already being made almost impossible, do not let the same happen in your country’s.

    No more isa brown or any hybrid for that matter, what a crazy bunch a chicken.

    The Jersey can lay at choice, real American character. Barbezieux lay huge eggs and poul de Bresse are real workers. They are the besteld choice, foraging a lot and need less feed. Composting and working in de garden, good layers breeders and meat chickens.

    But I love my Jersey Giants, just can not do without my American. After my favorite, the Barbezieux make me laugh with there cabaret. They are like the France Yankees.

    WhT a story, curious what American Homestead can say to give a bigger picture. Can only hope the seeds company is right, because there are a lot a seeds and so heritage on the line.

    How to be sure and make your choice to boycott, risky business a lot a damages can be done.

    Wait so that is it? So everybody else is lying or making this up? Employees did not wrote American Homestead?

    If they are still lying or again lying, are they so stupid or am I so dumb? Can someone explain what the hack is going on?

    That is so wrong, why did they not come out and just saying the truth. That it was what they did and sorry, is that so hard just to be honest after doing wrong.

    Bayer now over here, beginning of the end was my first thought. We will see in time, if the farmers, buyers and consumers can stay free.

    One of the gene bank we work with is at a university, there in the Netherlands and are far in these practices. It is how the commercials breeds are made, but also to protect the old heirloom breeds.

    They are able to crow more then just one generation so more generations in one year in greenhouses. And take out or put in gene, in laboratories and then grow the multiple generations in a year.

    Yes both they will give yearly growth, also done for fire wood. But not with the fruit and nuts, Salix is a good one to use like that. And yes as fencing from dead twigs or even living, can make tunnels and huts kids and big kids like us love them. And it is so nice in there, like a living air conditioner.

    With heirloom you got to find the right ones and grow them generations to let them adapt. Keeping them from cross breeding, takes a lot of distance, barrier, covering and work. You can see Deep South Homestead there experience, those seeds are gone. For them to mutch work to back breeding, time will find out if it is possible to breed the back by hard selection. That is how gene banks growers do that with the couple seeds left, if not it is all lost. But it takes years growing and selecting, to get them stable enough so you and others are able to buy them in a couple years and keep buying them.

    So treasure the growers that are doing these hard work , to preserve for you all and next generations.

    Look up the story from the Russia gene bank, they are true heroes and gave their lives for the preservation of all those seeds, bulbs and plants. And years of hard work from the gene banks, a part is saved in that world gene bank to.
