wheat

Our second or third attempt at growing wheat. It is already growing in a number of spots in the farm, here we planted after pigs were in this spot.

Turns out most farms grew a patch of wheat. And had a grinder if some kind, or a local mill, to grind it up. Homer has a scythe and is not afraid to use it in harvesting. Now we watch, wait and see if we get a crop. Save some of the seed heads to plant again. And figure out how to grind it. Then? Pancakes. Bread. Maybe waffles.
