satisfaction of doing it yourself
apple peelings still get fed to the poultry but with a beneficial dose of ACV
Our making our own ACV started as a homeschooling science project a couple of decades ago. It's so easy! It literally took just a few minutes work. We put the peelings in the bucket, add water, add the mother, cover the bucket with a cloth, and let it sit.
