Scythe-a-paloosa

Heck if I know if I spelled that correctly... Here is the email invite Jed sent out for anyone who did not get it through FB:

Come get your Peasant on!
Come rock out with your pre-industrial revolution self!

Rosie and I will be having a celebration of Pre-industrial revolution farming and food. We will be Harvesting a crop of wheat, oats and barley using the methods that where used in the medieval era. We will be cooking pork from pigs we raised and slaughtered our selves. We will also be offering free-range, cage free chicken from our own flock. Ever wanted to know how to slaughter, pluck, dress and cook our own food? Here is your chance, heck we will even let you pick a hen out yourself (kinda like the lobster tank at a really fancy restaurant, with out the price tag!). Milk a goat for your drinks and sample home made mead and cider, all from our home. There is no cost for this event but a RSVP would be nice. If you are coming from out of the area we have crash space inside or camping space outside (You can even clear your own site with a scythe or sickle if the fancy takes you). Rosie will teach and talk about home bee keeping (to anyone who holds still long enough) and Jed will off some classes and demos of blacksmithing. SCA member? Bring your armor and we can also re-enact the battle of "Angry, smelly, vikings try and take over Godric's Farm". Feel free to spread the word to anyone who may be interested in this event and can put up with Rosie and I rocking their pre-industrial world!

WOO HOO!!!! FARM PARTY!!!!
