Winnowing the quinoa

Susie's quinoa has been drying for a few days now, so today with a very light breeze we winnowed it to remove the chaff. We only had a dozen plants so a kilo or so of quinoa.

The ceps keep on coming this year!

Our neighbour gave us a loom that had been in pieces in his attic for 25 years. After working out how to assemble it, making a few missing pieces and a warping frame, we 're hoping to start our first weaving project soon.
