There's at least one person in every garden group that knows a ton about a thing (beit a about plants, certain birds or trees), Yet they are often the ones not speaking up and sharing their knowledge because they feel like everyone probably knows it.
Spoilers, we don't.
So I ask, PLZ SHARE HERE 👇

Call me stubborn, but I refuse to let this insanity prevent me from doing good.
If there's anything I'm good at, it's helping people get self-sustaining. I know LOTS about growing food. And soil, food forests, conservation, herbalism etc.
It's okay to not be okay. But lets keep trying tho k?🫂

Alright so this is a bit nerdy BUT it is a fun science experiment to do with kids and it actually works for your plants.
1 part egg shells
9 parts white vinegar
This creates what's called Calcium Acetate. It's a form of calcium your plants can actually take in💪 #science

FARM UPDATE:
Finally got the old windows changed out. 100% will be reusing them in a cold frame and greenhouse. I'll share the build plans if you want to do it too!
Now I just need the weather to not bite my face off and I can get to doing stuff! ❄️

I plan on doing more of these food forestry and gardening at scale videos, A LOT more, with a big focus on growing high calorie foods.
Tell me your general garden size and zone and I'll put stuff together on here as an example 🫶

LONG over due farm update. The garden is cleared, the fence is in. Now its time for planning and design.
I'm thinking about going live in walking through step-by-step how I'm doing it so if you want to learn how to do yours, give me a follow and let me know here.🫶 #gardendesign #Permaculture

I've designed planting strategies for many CSAs, but now I get to do mine, it's so cool to see this come full circle!
I'm DETERMINED, I will feed my community and hopefully help you all to start your farm and do the same. #sustainablelandscapedesigner #garden #regenerativeagriculture #Permaculture

You don't need to grow a ton all at once, instead stagger and plan throughout the seasons.
Before and after of the garden.
I'll be using this space to teach how to do intensive gardening methods using Permaculture approach.
Let me know before what types of plants you want to see guilds for. 😏

Sun is only one aspect of what you need to map. Don't forget to look at water (like creeks or drainage), rain, wind, snow, wildlife, fires, etc. They all play a role in how you plants thrive.

DAY 2 - Soil Survey is back! Good news 👍 Its mostly silty loam which means amendments are reasonably easy to manage.
Now, onto the microclimates 🙌 (this will be multiple parts as there are lots to examine)

DAY 1 - There are 3 big parts to building this farm. 1- Setting up the infrastructure, 2- Starting the business side, 3- Actually growing stuff.
I'm fully capable of doing all 3. Just gonna take some time, so come with me on this journey.

We're one step closer to finally growing on the farm.🌷✨️
I've been busting ass redesigning our farm model and making great progress!
It's time we change things up!
What are we growing? FOOD (and flowers and herbs but mainly food). Direct to ppl who need it (by $, helping out, and/or barter)

He's disgusting!
The East Wing was first added in 1942, under Franklin D. Roosevelt, primarily to provide office space for the First Lady’s staff and to conceal a newly built underground bunker known as the Presidential Emergency Operations Center (PEOC) during World War II.

Tomorrow’s new moon in Libra is all about self-love and setting fresh intentions 🌑
So of course… I chose pink ranunculus.
In floriography, they symbolize a deeper connected love, radiant with charm, and new beginnings.
Feels like perfect flower for this moon doesn’t it? ✨🌸

There was an incredible turnout across small-town USA! Many events weren’t even on our radar. Our coalition initially tracked around 3,000 events, but the number has now surged past 4,000 and counting.
