Will your family drink it?

most people cant tell the difference between goats milk and cows milk,

however some people may decide that they like goats milk, but when they figure out that its goats milk they decide they don't like it, there isn't much hope for those people, unless you give them goats milk in a cows milk carton and not telling them the truth! In taste tests most people actually prefer goats milk more than cows milk. 

Starting Seeds Indoors!

Starting Seeds Indoors!

      What you will need:

Potting soil
Seeds
A large spoon

An egg carton (top and bottom separated)

Popsicle sticks
Permanent marker
Plastic wrap

 

Step one: 

Put about an inch of soil in each space. Spread it out so that it's even.  Don't mash it down.

Step two:

Place plastic wrap in the top of the egg carton.

Step three:

Place the bottom part of the egg carton inside the top.  The top of the egg carton will help the bottom keep it's shape, even after it gets wet.

Step four:

Place two to three seeds in each space. When the plants sprout up, you will have to pull some out of the soil, if there is more than one in each space.

Step five:

Write the name of the plant on a Popsicle stick with permanent marker. Then, place the Popsicle stick in the space where you have paced the seeds of that plant.   

Step six:

Mist your soil until it is nice and wet, even under the surface. Do this every day.

Step seven:

Place the plants somewhere sunny and warm, until they are big enough to transfer into your garden!
