I set myself a little challenge to only eat things made with ingredients we produce or forage ourselves.

Currently that is:
- Eggs
- Spelt
- Tomato
- Onion
- Kohlrabi
- Cucumber
- Zucchini
- Aubergine
- Potato
- Parsley
- Basil
- Honey

I'm not an absolutist about self sufficiency and believe more in community sufficiency but it's an interesting experience and forces creativity.

Yesterday was salad and Tortang Talong, then gnocchi with tomato sauce for dinner.

Seems like a good moment to send the reminder that we're running an #instance here at https://regenerate.social for practicioners and active researchers of #Regenerative methods like #NoTill, #NoDig, #HolisticGrazing, #RotationalGrazing, #Permaculture, #CulturalBurning, #CarbonFarming, #SustainableForestry, #Reforestation, and more!

Come on over if that's you!

Please boost so that other regen people can find us :)

Went off on my old ass neighbor #permaculture style and I kinda feel bad about it but he's a grumpy old man so whatever.

He opposed our build permits with the county because we are on a weak aquifer.

I asked him if he was building features in his land to capture water and send it down into the ground rather that off the hillside.

He said no.

I asked him if he is collecting rain water (rains solid 9 mo a year).

He said no.

Then I asked him if I even needed to ask if he had a composting toilet or if we were done here.

His response lead me to believe that he is not in fact using a composting toilet but instead pisses and shits in the resources that was limited enough for him to be a massive pain in my ass.

Laid about 100 ft of drip line today. It will feed 4 lilacs, 1 elderberry bush, and a whole bunch of buckwheat, clover, and alfalfa which will be used as feed stock for the ducks while the bushes are sunblocks for the house.

New spot for the next 3 days. It's been exciting to see the change in fertility of the fields over the past year. The chicken manure is doing a stellar job.

The Youtube channel NoTill Growers has just released a video called Composting for Beginners a Market Gardener's Guide.

I highly recommend their content.

Enjoy.

This is our old #greenhouse and you can see why we're setting up a new, bigger one... A fraction of this year's plants and it's already bursting.

Favorite source:

The Permaculture Podcast with Scott Mann is one of my sanity-savers, an oasis of intelligent, useful, in-depth interviews and discussions about techniques that could revolutionize our food supply and our communities. Permaculture is our best weapon against the accelerating horrors of climate change.

Scott Mann has a lovely, soothing, NPR-sounding radio voice, calmly breaking down complex ideas and terrifying problems, from the philosophical to the practical, with great patience, earnesty, and compassion.

You won't hear about these solutions in the corporate news theater.

If we applied the principle of #RegenerativeAgriculture to our backyards, not only we could be more #resilient and #sustainable but we could encourage the reversal of #climatechange

It is up to us to do it.

@8bitpal. Hi I am new to mastodon. And well social media in general. But I am interested in connecting with folks working on organic notill (or reduced tillage). I work on a 100 acre organic farm that is trying to engage in reduced tillage strategies to burn less diesel, do less harm to our land, save money on fertilizer, and do it at scale. #noTill #RegenAg #newengland #organic #foodsecurity #affordableorganic
