🌱 Free Screening: Dirt! – The Movie

Join us, at White Horse Farm (Yamhill, OR) for a community screening of Dirt! - The Movie. It brings to life the environmental, economic, social and political impact that the soil has. It shares the stories of experts from all over the world who study and are able to harness the beauty and power of a respectful and mutually beneficial relationship with soil.

But more than the film and the lessons that it teaches, Dirt! The Movie is a call to action. “When humans arrived 2 million years ago, everything changed for dirt. And from that moment on, the fate of dirt and humans has been intimately linked.”

How can you affect that relationship for the better?

🗓️ Date & Time: August 29, 2025:
- Doors open at 6 PM for networking
- Screening at 6:30 followed by time for discussion
 📍 Location: White Horse Farm Classroom - 16340 NE Yamhill Rd. Yamhill, OR 🎟️ Free Entry – All Ages are welcome! Donations appreciated for the snack fund. 💬 Stay for a post-film discussion and connect with other local growers, land stewards, and permaculture enthusiasts.

Whether you’re a seasoned homesteader or just permaculture-curious, come be part of the conversation about growing a regenerative future—right here in our community.

I know I’m supposed to be posting construction progress… but let’s be honest, it’s hard to take pictures when your hands are full of tools. So here’s a shot from the weekend instead: first sail of the 2025 season with on my little C-Lark 14 out at Hagg Lake. Nothing fancy, just wind, water, and good company.

Finally made it out to the lake this year! It was so calm when I got out here I almost gave up. But while the picnic area had no wind there was a hint of wind at the dock. Got masted and went out. Wind did its usually evening thing and picked up and had a lovely if brief, little evening sail.

It’s a beautiful evening to welcome 4 new additions to the homestead. Mama duck was not pleased with the paparazzi so I only got 2 in the pictures. Several more eggs are still under her, but she was hoarding other eggs after she started sitting so we’ll see what happens.

Beghrir with maple syrup. It’s just wrong. But doesn’t stop me from enjoying brunch as I mix cultures.

Your civilization has discovered vertical gardening. +3 to food production.

It’s a beautiful day but wasn’t it snowing last weekend?

First blower door test. How did that result happen?!? That’s Passive House level! Certainly well above my target of “better than we used to build”

This is our 2nd new construction using Zip-R sheathing and trying to build an air-tight enclosure. It is our first blower door test except trying it on our own homes. 7ACH on the 1990s construction, 17ACH on the 1912 house. I’ve double checked the volume numbers of 36723 cuft which is the biggest determiner of the ACH number. We were blowing 350 CFM to hit our 50PA so we do seem on the right order.

Caveats to the test. We sealed all duct penetrations at the exterior duct terminus (makeup air, laundry, HRV). Not all of these are hooked up yet so the eventual dampers may not have been ready. Once HVAC rough-in is complete we will retest and sealing the interior of laundry vents or undampered fresh air intakes. But otherwise allow air leakage through exterior connected ducting to occur.

Also electrical and hose bibb penetrations are not yet complete.

This is monopoly framing. Fully encapsulated crawl and attic space.

18 sq in. Equivalent hole @ 4 Pa.
