A Shepherds Job
A good shepherd looks after his flock. When one goat under his care decided to take a closer look at the sea, he was forces to risk his own life to save it. He doesn't look much amused.

Come a cropper
1315 - 1317AD, Europe, including Britain. A farmer struggles on ploughing his flooded field, his wife follows after him planting seed that will hopeful will be harvest this summer. Their youngest son meanwhile attempts to keep the crows away. Meanwhile their neighbours field is left to fallow - not everybody survives this crises.
Following the Scottish victory at Bannockburn in 1314AD, Edward II's and England's difficult times continue with torrential rains in late 1314AD, followed by a very cold winter and more heavy rain in the spring of 1315AD. The result to begin with is the death of many sheep and cattle. Over the next six years bad harvests continue with more inclement weather. The Scots are also hit, but as the victors they raid northern England, beginning with attacks on Carlisle and Berwick - then reaching further south into Yorkshire and Lancashire, even threatening York. The famine does little to Edward's popularity.
On a continental perspective the famine extends from south Russia to Italy, causing millions of deaths. Europe did not fully recover until 1322 and the period was marked by extreme levels of crime, disease, mass death, and even cannibalism and infanticide.

Digging Potatoes
Tormod and his nephew Uilleam had gone to the meadow to dig the mid-season potatoes. It wasn’t the best crop they had grown, but young Uilleam seemed to be enjoying the opportunity to be playing in the fresh dirt.

Etheldreed Windmill
This is the “Etheldreed Windmill” my 3rd entry for the CCC, Medieval Husbandry category and also to GoH.
The mighty lands of Avalonia are home to many water and windmills, and perhaps the most known is the “Etheldreed Windmill”, where all kinds of cereals are milled to feed the nearby small villages. Being away from the forests, so it can catch strong winds, this watermill is an iconic landmark of Vanhorn Region.

Medieval Apiary
Before one can make mead, one must first have honey! Farmers on both sides of the Mitgardia/Avalonia boarder keep bees to pollinate their crops and produce honey.

Ol' Poggards' Mill
After a dreadfully cute and disastrous rabbit infestation on his carrot farm, Ol' Farmer Poggard and his sons picked up what they had left and relocated to another part of the avalonian countryside, a good 20 minutes on foot, and together constructed a wheat mill. Turns out that was teh most profitable thing that could have happened to them, they actually began making an income and the success of Poggards' wheat mill was incomparable to that of his carrot farm, because let's be honest, no one likes carrots.

Winter Wheat
Not far from the village lies the humble farm of Olaf and his wife Ingrid. Together, they grow and mill their own grain, making just enough to get by. This winter had been especially bitter, and they had nearly exhausted their wood supply trying to keep their tiny home warm. Winter was nearing its end now though. Soon their winter wheat would begin to head out and harvest would before long, harvest would be upon them again.
