Making Bone Meal

We made our own bone meal from the rooster we butchered earlier. 🍗 to do this..

1. Collect all your bones.
2. Put them in the crock pot with celery, onion, and carrots. Cover with water. Run over night to make chicken stock. Ladle stock into mason jars for later use!
3. Refill crockpot with bones, water, and veggies and cook for 7-8 hours. Ladle second batch of stock into jars for later use. 🥘
4. Put all the bones onto a sheet pan and bake at 325 for 6-8 hours.
5. Let bones cool.
6. Hammer your bones into smaller pieces 🔨
7. Run bones in a high powered blender until finely ground.
8. Sprinkle in your garden for added nutrients!
   BONUS: Strawberries LOVE bone meal! 🍓 And you got 2 batches of stock for your trouble!
