Tuesday, January 20, 2015. How to Worm a Cody. Step 1: While feeding Hogs, notice the male has ear mites. Determine they are bad enough to need medication. Step 2: Return to the house and make a large peanut butter sandwich. Inject enough Ivermectin into the bread to treat an eight hundred pound pig.

The Holverson Heritage: August 2015
http://theholversonheritage.blogspot.com/2015_08_01_archive.html
Monday, August 10, 2015. This humble weed that grows in your yard could turn out to be your best friend this summer. Plantain. Psyllium. it has many names and many uses but today I would just like to share one use and that is topical. We were preparing for the arrival of tropical storm Bill. the weather man is predicting 6-9 inches of additional rainfall on a Missouri that is already drowning from continual rain. I was worried about a few of my hives and needed to work with them a bit. Four hours later, ...

Monday, March 30, 2015. It was a bright and beautiful Spring day. The bees were working the early blossoms of the Forsythia tree and a rooster crowed in the court yard. I lazily sipped my coffee and then headed out to attend morning chores. Alright, that is a lie. a big fat lie. not that I haven't had farm mornings like that. oh, wait. yeah.no, I have never had a farm morning like that. Truth is. it is 37* out there right now, the wind is whipping and it is trying to snow big, wet flakes. It doesn't take...

The Holverson Heritage: November 2013
http://theholversonheritage.blogspot.com/2013_11_01_archive.html
Monday, November 25, 2013. When the Lord created Adam, He gave the earth to him with the. Command to subdue and have dominion over it. What we learn from scriptures is that Adam, through sin, then turned the earth. Over to Satan and things became hard. very hard. One thing that didn't change, however, was the command of. Subduing and taking dominion. When we moved here three years ago, that command took. On a new meaning in a very physical way. I love our trees, I love the seclusion. I'm going to buy.

The Holverson Heritage: February 2014
http://theholversonheritage.blogspot.com/2014_02_01_archive.html
Friday, February 28, 2014. Why grow your own? 1) Geraniums are expensive. 2) when you are caring for a family my size you soon learn to despise paying for anything twice. 3) growing your own helps insure a supply. 4) during the dark grey of winter it is nice to have something as stubborn as you blooming in defiance. So here is how I solve my need for geraniums. It's a jungle in there. The blossoms are placed on the table for one last hurrah. Would you look at that woman's widow? One thing I would like to...

The Holverson Heritage: A Mile High..
http://theholversonheritage.blogspot.com/2015/07/a-mile-high.html
Wednesday, July 1, 2015. We have had a lot of rain. A LOT of rain. and it's kept the bees cooped up. The first nice day we had a while back, I inspected hives. I noticed that one of the packages I installed in April had exploded and was building swarm cells. I moved several of those cells into a hive that had recently lost their queen and began to destroy the rest. And swarm they did. On Monday, while I was fighting a nasty cold. And yes, still. UP. She went to the top of the next Oak.really? Crank up th...

Saturday, October 18, 2014. A baby boy is born. Because babies are fun. Yet, in the birth of that baby there is a deeper purpose than chubby cheeks and dirty diapers. A purpose chosen of God. So we teach him to pray. Pray not only for himself but the world he will someday influence and most of all the woman God will send to walk beside him. While the years march on, we cherish his silliness. We fight for him in his struggles. And we always hold before him, his walk with the Lord. And the critiques intens...
