I meant to post this photo and update a while ago, but there was so much going on. It took us a little over a week once we started the process but we’ve finally got our wood stove installed.
We’ve only had one day since then (it’s been in for about 4 weeks) that our oil heat has needed to kick in. Relying on our own efforts to heat our little house is so rewarding. And knowing that we can comfortably face any power outage during the winter makes all the challenges of getting our stove up and running priceless.
Now on to the chicken venture…
We have a fireplace, but it’s not meant to heat the house. I so admire what you are doing…
Thanks – we’re working on little steps at a time but it’s nice to see each project adding to the whole goal of being more sustainable.
