Podcasts about Asparagus

In this Episode Beth Cole of Riverview Farms shares how local farms strengthen communities, preserve farmland, improve food security, and support healthier ecosystems. Drawing from her experience as a market gardener in Western North Carolina, Beth explains the value of Certified Naturally Grown certification, community-supported agriculture (CSA), farmers markets, and home gardening. She also reflects on lessons learned from Hurricane Helene, the challenges of starting a farm, and why growing food is one of the most important skills families can develop.Our Guest: Beth Cole is a market gardener in Asheville, North Carolina. At their farm they grow a variety of certified naturally grown veggies and cut flowers, are passionate about preserving farmland in the region and growing real food that nourishes the community.Key TopicsBeth ColeRiverview FarmsMarket gardeningAsparagus productionCertified Naturally Grown (CNG)Local food systemsCommunity Supported Agriculture (CSA)Farmers marketsHurricane Helene recoverySoil health and floodplain farmingGarden plant startsDirt Craft Living SoilsFood security and preparednessGrowing food in Western North CarolinaKey Questions AnsweredWhat is market gardening?Market gardening is small-scale intensive food production focused on growing a diverse mix of vegetables and flowers for local markets, restaurants, and consumers. Riverview Farms grows on roughly two acres while maintaining additional acreage for wildlife habitat, hay production, and floodplain preservation.How does asparagus grow?Asparagus is a long-term perennial crop typically started from crowns. Growers wait several years before harvesting heavily, with full production often beginning around year five. Well-maintained asparagus beds can remain productive for 15 years or longer.What is Certified Naturally Grown?Certified Naturally Grown follows standards similar to organic certification but is designed for smaller farms. The program emphasizes sustainability, biodiversity, wildlife habitat, and farmland preservation while relying on peer-to-peer farm inspections rather than third-party auditors.Why does buying from local farms matter?Purchasing from local farms helps preserve farmland, protect watersheds, support pollinators, strengthen local economies, and provide farmers with a sustainable livelihood. Local food purchases keep money circulating within the community.What is a CSA?Community Supported Agriculture allows customers to purchase a subscription to a farm's harvest. Members share both the risks and rewards of farming while providing farmers with critical early-season income.What positive lessons came from Hurricane Helene?Although the storm caused significant damage throughout the region, Beth observed that floodplain farmland acted as a natural sponge, reducing downstream impacts. In some areas, nutrient-rich sediments deposited by floodwaters improved soil quality and organic matter.Why should gardeners buy plants locally?Locally grown plant starts are better adapted to regional growing conditions and often outperform plants shipped long distances to big-box stores. Supporting local growers also strengthens the regional food economy.Why do new gardeners struggle?Gardening is a learned skill that requires time, observation, and experience. Success depends on understanding local conditions, improving soil health, and accepting mistakes as part of the learning process.Why are farmers markets important?Farmers markets provide the freshest possible produce, often harvested within 24 hours of sale. They create direct relationships between growers and consumers while supporting local agriculture.What motivates Beth's farming work?Beth is driven by concerns about chronic disease, declining food quality, and the disconnect between people and real food. She believes locally grown produce can improve both individual and community health.Episode HighlightsBeth transitioned from humanitarian work and Montana grain farming into market gardening in North Carolina.Riverview Farms shifted from primarily asparagus production to diversified vegetable and flower production.Asparagus requires patience, often taking five years before reaching full harvest potential.Certified Naturally Grown certification strengthens farmer-to-farmer learning through peer inspections.Buying local food directly supports farmland preservation, pollinator habitat, and watershed protection.Hurricane Helene highlighted the important role farms play in absorbing floodwaters and protecting communities.Local plant starts provide gardeners with healthier, more resilient plants adapted to regional conditions.Farmers markets offer unmatched freshness while building relationships between farmers and consumers.Soil quality is one of the most important investments gardeners can make.Gardening success comes from persistence, observation, and continuous learning.Calls to Action & ResourcesCertified Naturally Grownhttps://www.naturallygrown.orgRiverview Farms NCFacebook: Riverview Farms NCAppalachian Sustainable Agriculture Project (ASAP)https://asapconnections.orgDirt Craft Living Soilshttps://dirtcraftorganics.comRecommended BookGrow Great Vegetables in North Carolina — A practical guide for understanding regional growing conditions, soil, weather patterns, and crop selection.Visit www.urbanfarm.org/RiverviewFarms for the show notes on this episode, and access to our full podcast library!

This week, Vinson Cunningham, Naomi Fry, and Alexandra Schwartz kick off the summer months with a new installment of the Critics at Large advice series. Listeners' questions run the gamut: a high-school economics teacher seeks films for his students which aren't set in the world of finance; a caller from Iran looks for cultural works to help endure periods of extreme uncertainty; and two friends on the cusp of college graduation ask for recommendations to guide them in their next chapter. “Art is not a thing separate from our troubles or from our awareness of the insane contingencies of life,” Cunningham says. “It's meant as a companion and a response to those. I think that's shining through in some of these questions.”Read, watch, and listen with the critics:“Sorry to Bother You” (2018)“My Architect: A Son's Journey” (2003)“Les dites cariatides” (1984)“Twenty Minutes in Manhattan,” by Michael SorkinThe photography of Eugène AtgetThe music of the Notorious B.I.G., Heavy D, Fat Joe, and Big Pun“Sentimental Education,” by Gustave FlaubertVáclav Havel's “Audience”“The Best of Everything,” by Rona Jaffe“How to Murder Your Life,” by Cat Marnell“Becoming a Centenarian,” by Calvin Tomkins (The New Yorker)“This Old Man,” by Roger Angell (The New Yorker)“Tabula Rasa,” by John McPhee (The New Yorker)“Kramer vs. Kramer” (1979)“Divorcing,” by Susan TaubesElena Ferrante's Neapolitan novels“Ghost World,” by Daniel Clowes“Frances Ha” (2012)“Asparagus” (1979)Roger Payne's “Songs of the Humpback Whale”“Raise High the Roof Beam, Carpenters and Seymour: An Introduction,” by J.

We also enlist her as our first Dish sommelier.  Jodie Whittaker is an English actor known for her roles in Broadchurch, Doctor Who, Frauds and Toxic Town. Jodie, who was born in West Yorkshire but now lives in London, arrives at Dish with the perfect mindset; hungry and up for trying anything. So, a menu full of surprises it is, as we sit down to chat about Jodie's latest project: Dear England. The TV series is an adaptation of the hugely successful play that looks at Gareth Southgate's time as England manager.  We start things with a Hugo spritz, while learning about Jodie's favourite cuisines and the restaurant trip that brought her to tears... in a good way. Angela then serves a bowl of tagliatelle with asparagus, peas, shallots & capers, a Diana Henry recipe that Jodie could cook at home... but probably won't. The wine pairing is Jodie's choice as she opts for the Loved & Found Carricante. The surprises don't stop there, as Angela has also prepared a lemon thyme, honey & polenta cake, hitting the sweet spot perfectly.  Jodie's a joy to hang with as we discover the unique sandwiches she had as a child, the valuable support of her parents as she set about a career in acting, and the little things that make a difference for her while on a TV set.  The wines featured in Jodie's wine tasting also included No.1 Coteaux d'Aix en Provence Rosé Provence and the Loved & Found Grolleau Gris. You can watch the first two episodes of Dear England on BBC iPlayer now with the series' final parts broadcasting on May 30 and 31.  You can watch full episodes of Dish on YouTube and on Spotify.  All recipes from this podcast can be found at waitrose.com/dishrecipes The recipe for the tagliatelle with asparagus, peas, shallots & capers, was created for Waitrose by Diana Henry.  A transcript for this episode can be found at waitrose.com/dish If you want to get in touch with us about anything at all, contact dish@waitrose.co.uk  Dish from Waitrose is made by Cold Glass Productions 00:00 Welcome! 00:33 Today's guest & Tiramisu chat 02:54 Let's talk about polenta 04:22 Jodie Whittaker is here! 05:41 It's time for a spritz! 06:44 A day in the life of Jodie 09:10 From wine appreciation to food loves 12:37 Childhood meals & surprise meals! 16:11 Dinner parties 18:32 Sommelier Jodie 20:19 Food is served! 24:24 Dear England 27:58 England football evolution 30:04 Cake is served! 31:50 Broadchurch & Doctor Who 35:38 From supportive parents to acting rituals 38:30 Fast food quiz 40:14 End of the show question 43:22 Final chats & a listener question Learn more about your ad choices.

In this segment, Sylvia Pidraziuk Molnar brings forward a fabulous, simple recipe in praise of asparagus — a plant that has grown wild in Ukraine for centuries and still appears in Ukrainian kitchens across the country. She speaks to its quiet presence and long history in Ukrainian cookery, and the way its character pairs so naturally with familiar flavours, including the Carpathian bryndzia cheese as well as parmesan. Sylvia offers a straightforward preparation that lets the vegetable remain the star, a small dish with deep roots and a hint of the mountains in its finish.You'll find this recipe, along with others from the series, in the Ukrainian Food Flair cookbook, available from Amazon and other online booksellers. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

What a batshit crazy weekend! I actually got a short nap on Friday before my 50th Birthday party that night, which helped…because I was out WAY past my normal bedtime. 11pm & I just don't mix anymore. Saturday was an absolutely spectacular day for a charity motorcycle ride…and yesterday was my first ever parade as an Oktoberfest Grenadier. I'm pooped! Back to work this morning with LOTS to talk about, including what's on TV today/tonight, rock stars with NO tattoos, male cleavage becoming a "thing", and 21% of people who DON'T do this. In the news this morning, Pabst is discontinuing production of Schlitz beer, the African stork seen in Wisconsin just got a new home, the lead singer of Dr. Hook passed away at age 76, a recent survey on how safe people feel when it comes to cruise ships, a wild video of a car YEETING in Fond du Lac, everyone survived after a couple of jets collided, and apparently the Hantavirus can remain in human sperm for up to six years! In sports, the Brew Crew took 2-out-of-3 from the Twinkies this weekend, the Cavs beat the Pistons in game seven last night to advance to the Eastern Conference Finals in the NBA, SGA is the MVP for the second year in a row, game seven between Montreal & Buffalo is tonight, the Vegas Golden Knights get penalized for skipping media availability, Ronda Rousey gets a win over the weekend, and Jake Paul's reaction to the Conor McGregor announcement. Hero stuff right here as a man helped save a woman & her child after their SUV ended up in a pond, and a burnt kitten gets saved. Elsewhere in sports, the results of yesterday's NASCAR All-Star race…along with the results of the Preakness & the PGA Championship. Plus, Aaron Rodgers is coming back for another year with the Steelers, and strippers in Montreal are planning a strike during the Formula-1 Canadian Grand Prix weekend. Played a round of "Who'd you rather?" - Weird foods edition. A SPAM hot dog? Asparagus flavored ice cream? Or wasp cookies? And in today's "Bad News with Happy Music", we had stories about another issue with Waymo vehicles, a #FloridaMan who blew "sugar"(aka FENTANYL) in a cop's face, a woman in Arizona who was selling land mines, and a septic truck that got destroyed by a train!See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

This week's episode of The Veg Grower Podcast is a real mix of surprises, setbacks, and exciting new beginnings. From unexpected frost damage on the allotment to big changes in the kitchen garden — and the moment Richard finally becomes a beekeeper — there's plenty to dive into. If you want the full story, the sounds, and the emotions behind it all, make sure you give the episode a listen. Down on the Allotment Richard kicks off the week with a weather surprise — a mid‑May frost that caught many growers off guard. As he said, “This week we have had some frosts… temperatures have certainly dipped overnight.” Potatoes blackened, cucumbers wiped out, and a few tomatoes took a hit. It's a lesson in not planting tender crops too early, even when the forecast looks safe. But it's not all doom and gloom — Richard shares how he's bouncing back and what he'll do differently next year. Weeding, Asparagus & Garlic Watch With planting paused, Richard focused on weed control — essential at this time of year when everything grows at full speed. He also harvested rhubarb and asparagus, though the spears have been thinner than usual. On the garlic front, the straw mulch continues to help reduce leek rust, though a few spots have appeared. As he explains in the podcast, removing affected leaves now gives the bulbs the best chance to finish strong. In the Kitchen Garden Back home, the sheltered kitchen garden escaped most of the frost damage. Richard has been sorting through his many pots — and discovered that around 75% of his fruit bushes and trees didn't survive winter. He talks through what happened, what he's replacing, and why he's switching to matching pots and decorative stone mulch. Seeds Still Going In There's still time to sow plenty, so this week included: Cucumbers Nasturtiums Sunflowers Carrots Beetroot Spring onions Richard shares why he's sowing these now and how they fit into his late‑spring plan. Recipe of the Week This week's kitchen segment features a creamy spring onion and potato soup — simple, seasonal, and perfect if you're harvesting early potatoes. Listen for the full method and tips. Beekeeping Begins The big moment has arrived — Richard is officially a beekeeper. He collected his nuc on Saturday, transported it safely, and transferred the frames into his hive. As he described, “Within another couple of hours, the bees seem to have settled in.” He also shares the full story of getting stung, settling the bees, and how he found the perfect field site.

A welcome meal for the star amidst her West End run.  Rosamund Pike is the latest theatre actor to visit us in the middle of a hectic show schedule, with a performance at London's Wyndham's Theatre to follow her visit to Dish. In Inter Alia, Rosumund stars as Jessica Parks, a London Crown Court Judge balancing work, motherhood and friendship. It's an incredible central performance that earned Rosamund an Olivier Award for Best Actress, just a few days before we sat down to record.  Rosamund, celebrated for her roles in Pride & Prejudice, Die Another Day, Gone Girl and I Care A Lot, also has a new film on the horizon; Ladies First is a fantastical comedy where a misogynistic CEO Damian (Sacha Baron Cohen) finds himself in a world dominated by women, with Alex, played by Rosamund, as his boss. Ladies First is coming to Netflix on 22 May.  Angela serves Rosamund a beautiful dish of roast trout with brown butter alongside freshly cooked asparagus. The meal is perfectly paired with a glass of The Ned Pinnacle Sauvignon Blanc. Rosamund, a keen cook, is delighted with a hot plate of food at a time when her pre-show meals are dominated by cold salads - and the occasional sardine…  With a wide ranging career on stage and on film, we get some brilliant tales of life on-set from Rosamund, including dark chocolate energy boosts, and the value of co-stars who double up as mixologists.  You can watch full episodes of Dish on YouTube and on Spotify.  All recipes from this podcast can be found at waitrose.com/dishrecipes A transcript for this episode can be found at waitrose.com/dish If you want to get in touch with us about anything at all, contact dish@waitrose.co.uk  Dish from Waitrose is made by Cold Glass Productions Learn more about your ad choices.

This week on the Veg Grower Podcast, Richard takes us through that wonderful mid‑April moment when everything suddenly bursts into life. The allotment is waking up fast, the kitchen garden is buzzing with activity, and even the potting shed has a surprisingly important topic to tackle. There's been planting, sowing, weeding, rescuing, and—thanks to a small accident—some very seasonal cooking too. It's been a full and productive week, and Richard shares it all. On the Allotment Richard begins the week down on the allotment, where the next batch of potatoes has gone into the ground. This time it's the Maris Piper, the first of the maincrop varieties and one of Richard's favourites for roasting and chipping. The method stays simple: a hole, a seed potato, a sprinkle of fertiliser, a layer of compost and a good watering. There's excitement too, because the Rocket potatoes planted earlier in the season have now pushed their first leaves through the soil. Those tiny green shoots are always a reassuring sight, a sign that the season is moving forward and that the first harvest isn't too far away. A few weeks ago Richard sowed carrots and parsnips on the south side of the greenhouse, and they've now germinated. They're still tiny, but they're up, and that's what matters. They'll need careful watering, but it's another sign that spring is well underway. Richard has also planted out onions grown from seed—a fiddly job, but one that should pay off with fewer bolted onions later in the year. And the broad beans have gone in too, both the overwintered plants and the January‑sown experiment. They're now tucked into the old straw bale bed and mulched with straw to help keep the moisture in. Seed saving is a big focus for Richard this year, so a couple of parsnip plants have been left in the ground to flower. They still look like ordinary parsnips for now, but once they bolt, they'll provide seed for next year. And while weeding the asparagus bed, Richard accidentally snapped off a couple of spears. Not ideal, but they came home and ended up inspiring this week's recipe. In the Kitchen Garden Back home, the kitchen garden has been just as busy. The greenhouse has been warm—very warm—and the autopots have kept the tomatoes, cucumbers, chillies and peppers perfectly watered. They're growing strongly and won't be long before they start flowering. The cold frame, however, has been a battleground. Slugs and snails have found their way in and eaten Richard's cucumbers. Because he doesn't use pellets, it's back to the usual routine of nightly slug patrols, a bucket, and the chickens enjoying the spoils the next morning. The upside‑down clay pot trick is still working well, giving the slugs a cool hiding place that makes them easy to collect. Out in the main beds, Richard has been tackling the weeding in small, manageable sections. One area by the shed had become a bit of a dumping ground for pots, so he cleared it, trimmed the grass, and planted an apple tree there instead. It won't fruit this year, but it's a long‑term improvement to the space. Some of the potted fruit trees haven't survived last year's dry summer and this winter's cold snap, including the citrus. A few might still come back, but replacements may be needed. Meanwhile, the seed sowing continues in the shed—more beans, more sweetcorn, more of everything really—and the heated propagators have now been switched off for the season. Recipe of the Week: Asparagus & Potato Traybake This week's recipe came about thanks to those accidentally harvested asparagus spears. Asparagus has such a short season and such a delicate flavour that when it's ready, you really do have to make the most of it. Richard made a simple asparagus and potato traybake with a lemon and herb dressing. Potatoes were roasted first, then chopped asparagus and red onion were added along with a little more oil and seasoning. While that finished cooking,

WATCH THE EPISODE HEREIn this EpisodeHighlights & “Must-Listen” Moments* 0:04 — Another chaotic start: David accidentally goes live 10 minutes early, Amy drops off before we've even begun, and Domenica Marchetti is sitting patiently waiting while the hosts sort themselves out. Welcome to live television, folks, take two.* 5:47 — Big news: SiriusXM signed us!: David announces that SiriusXM has reached out, signed a $2.1 million contract, and created an entire channel called “Culinistas” for them. Amy plays it beautifully straight — until someone notices it's April 1st. David: “Do you realize SiriusXM has no idea who we are? I bought it!” April Fools. Amy: 1, David: 1.* 9:39 — Amy's food week: Providence, Rhode Island food festival: Amy attended a celebration of Providence's dining scene — a city that, like Portland, Maine, punches way above its weight in food culture. She toured Johnson & Wales College of Culinary Arts, did a panel with food writer elyse major, and came away wanting to move there immediately.* 11:41 — This week's bread bake: the Levain: Amy's sourdough rhythm continues — this week a classic nearly-all-white sourdough with a touch of rye flour. A Levain. Beautiful and tangy.* 11:53 — Amy's Passover Seder prep: Amy is getting her brisket going and making chicken stock for matzo ball soup. Her Seder menu also includes crispy glazed sweet potatoes (mandolined, stood up like hassleback, glazed with brown sugar and butter) and roasted asparagus with Parmesan.* 13:02 — David's food week: Portuguese Flourless Almond Cake disaster: David attempted his Portuguese almond flourless cake — a recipe he hadn't made in 25 years — for Passover at Fred and Ginger's house. He forgot the butter. Alan had to drive to the gas station to buy eggs. ADHD: 1, David: 0. He went to an ADHD coach this week, however — and reports it's going well.* 15:01 — Domenica's food week: Domenica's retired husband has been doing all the cooking, which has been wonderful. Highlights: grilled swordfish steaks with asparagus and roasted red pepper, and enchiladas made with a whole rotisserie chicken — left on the counter overnight, tragically.* 17:00 — Crab cake catastrophe: The One was making crab cakes from one-year-old canned crab. The tongue-tingling was histamine poisoning. They tasted it anyway. Don't be like David.* 19:41 — Book spotlight: Pimento Cheese: The Cookbook by Rebecca Lang: David recommends this deep dive into pimento cheese from the author of Around the Southern Table — lemony goat cheese pimento, Tex-Mex pimento, pineapple pimento, and pimento cheese with chili crunch. David riffs on his own deep-fried pimento cheese balls: firmed in the freezer, rolled in panko, fried at 375°F until oozy and golden.* 22:31 — Mrs. Appleyard's Vermont kitchen: Amy goes vintage with Louise Andrews Kent, who wrote under the pen name Mrs. Appleyard — a sort of 1940s–50s Martha Stewart of northern Vermont who wrote seasonal cookbooks chronicling life in the tiny town of Crosbury Common. Charming, funny, and findable in used bookshops.* 24:52 — Food news: Copenhagen's $340 chicken prix-fixe: A restaurant called Kylling (Danish for “chicken”) invites guests to spend the first 90 minutes of their dinner interacting with the chicken that will be served. The bread basket features cardamom buns made with chicken schmaltz. Art, or a lie? David fell for for. Again, April Fools. Amy: 2, David: 1.* 26:03 — Instagram's shadow ban on non-overhead food photos (April Fools, part 2): A “leaked memo” claims Instagram will shadow ban any food not photographed from above — including soup shot from the side. Amy almost sold it. David: “It was believable. I believe everything.” April Fools. Amy: 3, David: 1.* 27:53 — Guest: Domenica Marchetti on Italian Cookies: The main event. Domenica is a prolific food writer and the author of nine acclaimed cookbooks. Her new book, Italian Cookies: Authentic Recipes and Sweet Stories from Every Region, drops April 14th. It covers the genuine, regional Italian cookies — not Italian-American cookies (no rainbow cookies, no iced anise rounds) — organized by the north, central Italy, the south, and the islands.* 29:51 — The cookie that started it all: Canestraletto di Torigna: In 2017, Domenica bit into this crumbly, flower-shaped butter cookie from Liguria (Genoa) and fell down a rabbit hole. She went to the town where it's baked, found it has a history dating to the 15th century, and discovered a town of 2,000 people with eight bakeries dedicated to this one cookie.* 31:16 — Cookie pilgrimage: from Liguria to Saronno: From there it was the amaretti di Gavi (soft almond cookies from Gavi), then Voltaggio, then Saronno — where Domenica interviewed Paolo Lazzaroni, patriarch of the Chiostro di Saronno, the family behind the famous crunchy amaretti. His grandfather purchased a medieval cloister in the early 20th century, where the family has lived and worked ever since.* 34:03 — What's in the book (and what isn't): The book is organized regionally — cookies of the north, central Italy, the south, and the islands. In the islands chapter: Sicilian cucidati (buccellati) — butter pastry filled with fig paste, nuts, and chocolate. Not included: rainbow cookies, Italian-American iced anise rounds. This is Italy, not the neighborhood bakery.* 36:21 — Deep dive on the Serpetti: From the Castelli Romani hill towns outside Rome (where the Pope summers), these S-shaped butter cookies are made by a fifth-generation family in Monteportio Catone. The baker, Paola Rosazza Battore, wouldn't share her recipe — but let Domenica watch. Through pure visual reporting, Domenica reverse-engineered it.* 44:31 — Regional cookie trends from north to south: Butter in the north. Olive oil in the south and Calabria. Lard in some regions. Honey and mostocotto (cooked grape must) in areas where sugar was once scarce. The cookies reflect the landscape, the agriculture, and the history of each place.* 56:54 — Coming back: Domenica hints that this conversation is far from over. David floats the idea of a live “Mouthful” where Domenica bakes a cookie while they talk to her. She's in.* 57:51 — Farewell to Domenica: She's a prolific food writer, author of nine acclaimed cookbooks — from handmade pasta to preserving to traditional Italian cooking — and one of the most trusted voices in regional Italian cuisine. Italian Cookies drops April 14th.

Perennials Plant Once, Harvest for Life | Episode 601 Growing food is one of the most important survival skills you can develop. A garden can feed your family, give you independence, and reduce your reliance on fragile supply chains. But let's be honest — gardens can also be a lot of work. Planting every year, maintaining beds, watering, fertilizing, harvesting. It takes time and effort. So what if you could plant something once and harvest from it for years or even decades? Today we're talking about perennials you plant once and harvest for life. Fruit Trees: Long-Term Food Security Fruit trees are one of the best investments you can make in a long-term food system. Apples, pears, peaches, plums, nectarines, cherries — once established they can produce food for decades with relatively little maintenance. The key advice here is simple: grow what you actually like to eat. If you love apples, plant apples. If you love peaches, plant peaches. But there's another opportunity here that many people overlook. Instead of growing the same varieties you see in grocery stores, grow unusual or specialty varieties. There are thousands of apple varieties alone. Some have unique flavors, unusual colors, or striking appearances. Things like pink-fleshed apples or deep purple varieties can stand out in farmers markets and command a higher price. If you’re going to plant trees that will produce for decades, you might as well plant something interesting. Avoid Monocropping Another reason to grow multiple varieties is resilience. If you plant twenty identical apple trees and a pest or disease hits that specific variety, you could lose your entire orchard. By planting different varieties, you reduce the risk and increase the overall resilience of your system. It also extends your harvest window since different varieties ripen at different times. Berry Bushes: Easy Perennial Calories Berry bushes are another excellent perennial food source. Blueberries, raspberries, and blackberries can produce fruit year after year once established. Many of them spread naturally and become even more productive over time. They're also easy to harvest and can fit into small spaces. Some berry bushes can even serve as natural barriers. Thorny plants like blackberries and raspberries can help deter animals or even people from wandering through certain areas. That means your food production can also double as a defensive landscape feature. Asparagus: A Perennial Vegetable Most vegetables are annuals, meaning you have to plant them every year. Asparagus is one of the rare exceptions. Once established, an asparagus patch can produce for 15–20 years or more. It takes a few years to get going, but once it does, it comes back every spring and keeps producing. It's one of the best “plant once, harvest for years” foods you can grow. Rhubarb and Perennial Herbs Rhubarb is another tough perennial plant that comes back year after year. It produces large stalks that can be used in pies, jams, and preserves. It's cold-tolerant and very hardy, making it a good option in many climates. Herbs are another category that often comes back year after year. Plants like mint, oregano, thyme, chives, and rosemary can continue growing season after season with minimal effort. Growing herbs at home saves money and keeps fresh flavor available anytime you need it. Instead of buying a bunch of herbs and letting half of it rot in the refrigerator, you can simply step outside and cut what you need. Nut Trees: High-Calorie Survival Food Finally, we have nut trees. Pecans, walnuts, and chestnuts produce calorie-dense foods that can feed people for generations. Nuts contain healthy fats and protein — things that can be harder to obtain in survival situations. Unlike annual crops, these trees can produce for decades or even longer, making them an excellent long-term investment for a food-producing landscape. Chestnuts are particularly interesting historically. The American chestnut once dominated forests across the eastern United States before blight nearly wiped it out. Today people are working to restore blight-resistant varieties, while Chinese chestnuts remain widely available and productive. Building a Perennial Food System The biggest takeaway from today's episode is simple. Annual gardens are great, but perennial food systems are powerful. Plant trees. Plant berry bushes. Plant herbs that come back every year. Add asparagus, rhubarb, and nut trees. These plants reduce your workload while increasing long-term food production. And the sooner you plant them, the sooner they start producing. Because when it comes to perennial food systems, the best time to plant them was yesterday. The second best time is today.
