Cooking With Gas

More images from working with bamboo in the Birdhouse backyard. We've now got 20 fence panels, each 4' x 7', waiting to be filled in with bamboo strips. We'll drive to Manchester on Monday.

I hope to get part of our banner/flag sewn this morning. So much to do.























Joan demonstrates bamboo splitting. For larger pieces, we use a machete and a hammer.





















Lauren and Jessica prepare to sort and clean bamboo. Each piece gets scrubbed with biodegradable soap before being cut or split and fastened into the fence.
