    George,

    I purchased a 1000′ to saw for my new equipment shed and almost fell over when I got the bill. I heard it was up to $350 here. And pulp price by the ton is way up too.

    Do you need any help with the NOFA workshop? Please let me know if there is something we can do. Would you like a DAPNet presence there?

    Erika, Not to worry, we will have something for you by the first of next week as far as an agenda for the newsletter. We are not asking you to do content for the newsletter.

    Some Pictures of the Spring Wood Bee. Thanks to all the volunteers who participated. Especially those on the landing who cut, split and moved every stick of wood 4 teams of horses and 2 teams of steers could pull to them. We had a wonderful pot luck lunch and an opportunity to spend time with old friends and new. I had a great day and left the event with a very gratifying feeling.

    Jim and I will be leaving Washington around 3:00. Be at the farm by 4:30 or so, set up the padock for Oz then dinner I would guess around 6:30 or 7:00. Cocktail hour could be anytime 😉

    I am all packed up and ready for a great weekend:)

    Any questions, call my cell @ 603-340-4035

    Welcome Jay, Glad you found us. If you go to the DAPNet website you can find out how to become a member or sponsor or get involved if you wish to. This is a great place to learn and network.

    Really looking forward to meeting you, Erika is bringing her Shorthorns too if she can find a truck to haul them with.

    I called Chuck Cox and he picked up his homesteader in PA in April. He is willing to demo it for us sometime in August. or early September. We are still working on a date to set up a workshop at his farm in Lee, NH.

    I will keep you all posted.
