ain't no party like a wood ash party


Many animals enjoy dirt bathing, and my chickens are no exception.  John + Mary told me wood ash is a particularly appealing and healthful bathing substance for the girls, so I dumped a 5 gallon bucket full in the coop this morning.  It smells great.

Wood ash -and cigarette ash, for that matter- will also help take water rings out of your finished wood surfaces. It's a great day after a after party help.
