I've got a high tunnel to put up sometime and the heritage varieties don't do all that well in them so I may end up with hybrids in there for some things. Maters especially.

Luckily the kids are done growing. I just got a new to me pair of boots on ebay. I normally wouldn't buy shoes online but they're the same thing I'm wearing right now but this right one has a hole in the soul. I keep my old boots. Socks and undies are good to stock up on.

I do plan on composting this year. Haven't done it in a few. Got the goats for fertilizer and we can start peeing in jugs and using that if need be.

Been thinking about buying some of these; https://allrags.com/collections/white-terry-rags/products/recycled-white-terry-washcloth?variant=36519545488

Paper products are through the roof. I bet the white terry rags would pay for themselves in paper towel use reduction. Approx 300 in a 25lb box. Would make good TP too. Wipe, fold, wipe fold, toss in bucket of water to soak and wash when you accumulate enough.

I buy Dawn dish liquid in the big jug and refill the little one by the sink. I buy purple cleaner in the gallon jug. It's concentrated and can be reduced quite a bit for a household cleaner.

Old boots, especially little one's sloshers, are great for making into planter pots for herbs or ornamental flowers. Drainage hole in the bottom, some potting soil, and they are not only useful, but also adorable. They can be hung on a porch or low fence railing.
