Tales from the Prepper Pantry Added more pickled beets to the pantry this week—trying to stay ahead of the beet wave Dried a fresh batch of lemon balm, thanks to a special visitor who brought me a beautiful harvest Testing a new approach to event food and premade meals—moving to stainless steel restaurant trays with lids for things like meatloaf. Easier to stack, serve, and clean Hoping to score cucumbers this weekend for the next round of pickling Frugality Tip A little weekly effort saves you tons of money in convenience food over time. I've been making 8 pounds of meatloaf at a time lately—when meatloaf is on the meal plan, I shape and freeze extras for future, easy-to-serve meals. In fact, once a week, I pick something to batch like this—whether it's blanching and freezing extra broccoli, or making carnivore pizza crusts. When life gets busy, I can just pull, cook, and serve—faster than driving into town or grabbing premade, low-quality food. This habit saves money, improves nutrition, and helps prevent impulse spending. It also keeps us healthier, which could mean fewer medical bills later. So here's your challenge: Look at your meal plan this week and find one thing you can double and freeze. Future you will thank you. Operation Independence I finished my taxes! One more round to go and I'll be fully caught up. This process hasn't just been about checking a box—it's given me real insight into where money is flowing (and where it's not). That clarity has helped me reprioritize how I spend my time and energy moving forward. Sometimes, independence means getting your financial house in order—even if it's uncomfortable. Main Topic of the Day: If I Were Starting a Homestead Today - a question from Ian who is about to buy his homestead from across the country and move… FIRST THE BAD STUFF I DID Make it fun more often and from the start - Bulldoze the house and build new in a better location - Emotional attachment to the goats Maybe Not Get Goats  Moved the garden to zone 1 Retaining wall and French drain system - easy maintenance plan  1 animal or major change at a time until it is easy - Hard reset on stuff  Infrastructure before animals (see above) Time on the property to observe the seasons - Overseen contractors and helpers more closely - Build with profit in mind - 1 thing financing the next thing  Addressed the negative energy issue - Better use of on-site resources - like junk trees - morel story -  Get good at compost first - grazing - soil Water system - repair versus fix once and for all - Learn from the local community regarding what grows well here, hydrology, local knowledge and dependable contractors take classes development relationships talk to neighbors Hydrology/water, access, then the rest is the order to plan in I waited ten years to bring in a permaculture consultant and that was wrong 5 Things You Should Do When Starting a Homestead (From 18 Years of Hard Lessons) Start With a Big-Picture Plan, Not What's Already There Too many new homesteaders try to make existing structures or systems work—even when they don't. That old house, random infrastructure, or legacy garden spot can lock you into years of wasted time and money. Don't get emotionally attached to what's there. Design from scratch based on what works, not what exists. Build Soil and Observe Before You Build Anything Permanent The smartest first year move is not to plant trees, build a barn, or install major systems - unless you just have to as part of your plan. It's to study your land and build soil health. Hydrology, sun, wind, and microclimates matter more than what you think you want to do. Compost, watch water flow, graze slowly, and improve soil. One System at a Time—Fully Functional Before You Add More Piling on animals, gardens, or outbuildings without the infrastructure in place leads to burnout and chaos. If you're chasing goats while digging fenceposts, you're doing it wrong. Add systems only when the current one runs easily. Tap Local Knowledge and Outside Experts Early You don't need to figure everything out yourself. Local growers, neighbors, county experts, and consultants can save you years of mistakes—if you listen.  The culvert story Build relationships and take advice. Pay consultants when it counts. Manage the Energy—Spiritual, Emotional, and Environmental Homesteading isn't just physical work. There is a spiritual signature from before you were ever there and you may have attracted some haters over time - take control of the bad energy, get your property blessed or whatever you need to do to protect it, and yourself, from unnecessarily bad baggage. This is ongoing. Clear bad energy, maintain spiritual health, and set firm boundaries. The Holler Roast Prebuy is live! Support the shack, get coffee credit, and score digital goodies.

Sometimes I feel like the “Labourer” in our household. “Darling, can you please dig me a large hole for a Nikau Palm” followed by “pruning the fruit trees” and “covering the soil against blackbirds” or “create a nice pathway”. Of course I have my own stuff to do/plant/remove/mow, but once I start the Hansa Chipper I am in my element. Branches up to 2 inches in diameter are turned into excellent, fresh and sizeable mulch – stuff that will —in time— be the best organic matter to feed the soil and the plants that grow in situ. But it needs to be managed well. Couple of things you can do with this chipping monster and the chips: Create a thick layer of wood chips that cover the garden path. It keeps it covered in winter, and it stops a lot of weeds germinating on that path – saves a heap of weeding and keeps the surface relatively dry after winter rain. But if you want to create a good mulch for your plants, you'll need to add some Nitrogen (N). Your chipped wood is mainly Carbon. The Nitrogen (in the form of Urea) is needed to turn the Carbon into balanced compost – a handful of Urea per square meter might do the trick. Many people that have a compost bin stuff that bin full of lawn clippings, fruit remains, and vegetable matter and stalks, left over from a dinner This compost bin is very full of Nitrogen and lacking a decent amount of Carbon —the opposite to the thick layer of wood chips— to be used as “Mulch”. You guessed it: this compost bin needs a good amount of Carbon from the chipper to balance the C-N ratio required for a decent plant food fertiliser in the garden Generally speaking, the C-N ratio required to make fertile soil should be in the order of 20-1 (up to 30-1).

Sam Baker from Wrigglebrew and I talk about soil health, and what does nitrogen poisoning look like?My leaves turned brown, despite enough watering. Maybe I gave them too much nitrogen?Overuse of phosphorus causes plants to not be able to uptake zinc, magnesium, calcium. That's another reason why our food is mineral deficient.Wrigglebrew is even used by soy farmers to reduce their nitrogen load and move a little more toward regenerative farming methods.Compost tea only has a shelf life of 24-48 hours. How does Wrigglebrew maintain the flora and be shelf stable?Sam also shares about Wrigglebrew's research - a scientific gov't grant to use worms to digest plastic.Wrigglebrew is a fertilizer made from worm castings, but it goes farther by adding helpful soil bacteria, mycorrhizae, and mycelium. The mycelium is a species that will not grow into mushrooms, if that is a concern. You can use it as soil fertilizer or foliar feed spray. Wrigglebrew started as a project at the University of Central Florida (UCF) to offer a solution to combat the nitrogen runoff that causes red tide - algae bloom in the Gulf (of America).Episode show notes: Ep. 162 - Talking Soil Health with Sam Baker from WrigglebrewTimes are tough.

Send Catherine a text Message“The Church says: the body is a sin.Science says: the body is a machine.Advertising says: The body is a business.The Body says: I am a fiesta.”― Eduardo Galeano, from Walking Words In this episode I tell the second part of Inanna's story, the courtship and marriage between Inanna and her honey man, the shepherd Dumuzi. Ripe in every sense, Inanna engages in a passionate and symbolic union that celebrates physical desire, renews the life cycles of nature, and expresses the creativity  and eros of the cosmos. Her myth illuminates the sacredness of embodied experience and the transformative power of creative union, and challenges traditional dichotomies between spirit and matter.  Inanna invites us to reconsider the sacred through the lens of wholeness, integration, and reverence for life in all its forms.Support the showEmail Catherine at drcsvehla@mythicmojo.comPost a positive review on apple podcasts!

Public Relations Specialist Elizabeth McMullen and Sustainability Funding and Communications Specialist Garland Mason of Organic Valley Cooperative join Mary and Eric to share about the common ties that are essential to the farmer-owned cooperative. Cooperation and a strong commitment to the sustainability of small and mid-size family farms, local culture, and community are the most basic ties. In this episode, Elizabeth and Garland outline the history of Organic Valley and how the business started as a vegetable cooperative in 1988 and now has over 1,500 dairy farmer-member owners in 29 states with an average herd size of 70 cows per farm. Preserving small family farms was an impetus for Organic Valley's start. In carrying that mission forward, Organic Valley assists farmer member-owners to be sustainable and profitable through on-farm practices such as solar, composting, solid and liquid separation of manure, reduced tillage, and nutrition management to reduce nitrogen, phosphorus, and gas emissions. Most recently, OV farmers have experimented with Agolin Naturu, which is an organic certified enteric feed supplement made of essential oils of coriander, clove, and carrot that results in better fermentation, digestibility, and less burping.To learn more about Organic Valley's commitment to cooperation, sustainability, and soil health, please visit https://www.organicvalley.coop/  The website also provides recipes and a searchable database of Organic Valley farms near you.As always, we encourage you to cooperate with other farmers and follow the four core soil health principles: 1) Keep the Soil Covered -- Cover crops are our friends; 2) Minimize soil disturbance -- Practice no-till or gentle tillage in your field or garden as much as possible; 3) Maximize living roots year-round -- to improve biodiversity and life in the soil; and 4) Energize with diversity -- through crop rotation and/or livestock integration.

Any time you put the word “summit” in something, it mentally becomes bigger than you previously thought.  A conference on steroids, in most people's minds.  And when you do an ag-related summit in California, that notion of grandeur can be well deserved, even when you take away the size of the state itself.  The sheer amount of agricultural exports that the producers in California send to other parts of the U.S. and the world is staggering.But there's another aspect to agriculture that is a huge business opportunity:  Agritourism.  If you've ever been wine tasting, done a farm tour, seen the flower fields, gone horseback riding, or sampled local cheese while sitting in your B&B, you're an agritourist.The 2025 California Agritourism Summit, put on by the UCNR (Department of Agriculture and Natural Resources), is meant to highlight the potential of agritourism for the producers in California.  It's another way for our food and fiber producers to maintain self-sufficiency in these changing times.The wave is here, and California farm producers are ready to ride it.  And this one doesn't have to be near the ocean. Links:https://ucanr.edu/site/communications-toolkit/acronym-directoryhttps://www.usda.gov/glossaryhttps://ucanr.edu/site/california-agritourismhttps://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Got_Milk%3Fhttps://class.ucanr.edu/statewide-program/uc-anr-small-farms-network/ramiro-lobo-sfp-advisor-san-diego-countyhttps://www.cdfa.ca.gov/SecretaryBio.htmlwww.cagrown.orgSupport the show

Episode 605 – The Veg Grower Podcast After a whirlwind week travelling the country with Lee Connolly (aka the Skinny Jean Gardener) and his brother Dale, I'm finally back in the potting shed—albeit with a few snapped cabbages and a whole lot more inspiration. This week's podcast is a mix of travel tales, allotment updates, and a fantastic interview with Andy from Hotbin. We're also talking chickens, cucumbers, and how kids are the future of gardening. Touring with 10,000 Budding Gardeners Last week I joined Lee and Dale on a mission to get 10,000 children gardening. We visited schools all over the UK, delivering high-energy seed sowing sessions filled with laughter, dancing, and even a few water pistols. The highlight? Seeing children leave with big smiles and wildflower seeds in their pockets. But it wasn't all sunshine and spuds. A visit to the Royal School for the Deaf opened my eyes to just how inaccessible our audio-based content can be. It's made me think seriously about making the podcast more inclusive. Suggestions welcome. And then there was the visit to the iconic Blue Peter Garden… I won't spoil the video (coming soon on Lee's YouTube channel), but let's just say the vege patch didn't quite live up to childhood memories. Back on the Plot: Mulch, Mayhem & A Greenhouse Surprise Returning to the allotment after a week away is always a mixed bag. Thanks to good pre-trip watering and some faithful mulching, most of the crops survived—broad beans, potatoes, onions, and garlic all doing well. The big jobs this week? Planting out the squashes, courgettes, pumpkins, tomatoes, and peppers. I'd delayed them due to frost warnings and dryness—and it looks like that was the right call. Chef Scott lost half his squashes to a rogue frost! My greenhouse, however, was the biggest surprise. The cucumbers and tomatoes in the autopots had tripled in size while I was away! It just goes to show how reliable that watering system is, even in warm weather. Chickens, Slugs & Sustainability We had a great message from listener Laura in West Yorkshire this week, who asked about chickens and whether I'd ever keep bees or other animals. So this episode includes a little segment on what it's like keeping chickens in the garden. Spoiler alert: I wouldn't be without them. From eggs to pest control to rich compostable manure, chickens offer so many benefits. But they do require care, especially when you go away, and can be destructive if left to free-range during planting season! Bees and ducks are on my “maybe someday” list—but for now, chickens remain my top pick for productive pets. This Week's Recipe: Gluten-Free Rhubarb Crumble Chef Scott returns with a seasonal treat—rhubarb crumble with a twist. This version is gluten-free but packed with flavour. Head to the blog to find the full recipe and give it a try with your latest rhubarb haul. Question of the Week:Do you garden with your children—or grandchildren? What are your tips for getting kids interested in growing food? I'd love to hear your stories. Leave a comment below or drop me a message. Until next time,Richard

Farmers talking with farmers is key to building soil health, encouraging innovation, and expanding peer-to-peer mentoring. Anthony Beery of Beery Farms and Cumberland Hay and Straw LLC shares his journey of learning, mentoring, and on-farm experimenting with Mary Sketch Bryant and Jeff Ishee. In the previous episode, Anthony talked about how he benefitted from his father's counsel and encouragement. Anthony provides similar mentorship to his children and fellow farmers through the Virginia No-Till Alliance (VANTAGE) and Virginia's Integrated Cropland Agronomy (ICA) program so others can generate new ideas and enjoy success.  Like the majority of farmers, Anthony is constantly learning and gleaning new information through his on-farm experiments with no-till farming, multispecies cover cropping, composting, and observing the soil and plant ecosystem. As a self-described general gleaner, Anthony recommends talking with other farmers, attending conferences like the Annual VANTAGE No-Till Conference, and reading books and publications available through USDA's Sustainable Agriculture Research and Education (SARE) and agricultural partners. In Anthony's work with multi-species cover crops, he uses Green Cover Seeds' SmartMix Calculator as one of his reference tools.    As always, we encourage you to talk with other farmer mentors and follow the four principles of soil health: 1) Keep the Soil Covered -- Cover crops are our friends; 2) Minimize soil disturbance -- Practice no-till or gentle tillage in your field or garden as much as possible; 3) Maximize living roots year-round -- to improve biodiversity and life in the soil; and 4) Energize with diversity -- through crop rotation and/or livestock integration.

This Podcast Extra episode is from John's Ask Me Anything webinar from April 14. Drawing from his extensive research and firsthand experience, John will provide insights and practical solutions to help growers achieve healthier, more resilient crops. In this discussion, the topics cover: Nutritional management with copper, nitrogen, potassium, and calcium prevents wheat and barley lodging better than PGRs.  Soil aeration and oxygen flow enhance paramagnetism more effectively than paramagnetic rock powders. Side-dressing potassium, like potassium nitrate, benefits soil biology more than broadcasting potash. Adequate calcium and boron levels, plus soil aeration, reduce clubroot in brassicas. Compost, low soil carbon, and lack of humic substances cause high chloride in plant sap, mitigated by humicarb. Selenium may influence fatty acid profiles and yield in forages, but its role in oil crops is unclear. Balancing potassium and calcium with manganese and boron ensures optimal plant health. Microbial activity and preventing soil drying enhance potassium availability in clay soils. Micropack offers higher performance than seaweed or fish-based foliar sprays for tropical fruit groves. Deeper earthworm presence reflects better soil aeration and structure, not necessarily overall soil health. Seed Flare may penetrate sunflower shells but is less effective on stone fruit, needing experimentation. BioCoat Gold is best as a seed treatment but can be applied in-furrow.  About John Kempf John Kempf is the founder of Advancing Eco Agriculture (AEA). A top expert in biological and regenerative farming, John founded AEA in 2006 to help fellow farmers by providing the education, tools, and strategies that will have a global effect on the food supply and those who grow it. Through intense study and the knowledge gleaned from many industry leaders, John is building a comprehensive systems-based approach to plant nutrition – a system solidly based on the sciences of plant physiology, mineral nutrition, and soil microbiology. Support For This Show & Helping You Grow Since 2006, AEA has been on a mission to help growers become more resilient, efficient, and profitable with regenerative agriculture.  AEA works directly with growers to apply its unique line of liquid mineral crop nutrition products and biological inoculants.
