VetFolio - Veterinary Practice Management and Continuing Education Podcasts

Case reports are invaluable to the veterinary community — they identify new diseases, detail new diagnoses, explore novel treatments, or, in the case of a Labrador retriever named Sammy, they illustrate how teamwork can lead to a better clinical outcome for the patient. In this fascinating case-based VetFolio Voice podcast episode, Dr. Cassi chats with Jessica Wilson-Hess, a veterinary technician specialist, and Dr. Holly Brown, a veterinary clinical pathologist, to discuss the case of Sammy, who is a survivor of Lyme nephritis but became acutely ill after a recent stem cell treatment. Jessica and Holly discuss his labwork, the nuances of his CBC, and the ancillary diagnostics performed to figure things out and get Sammy back to feeling his best. In discussing the case, the working relationship (and friendship) between this veterinarian and veterinary technician is highlighted, maximizing their impact in diagnostic testing and case management. At the end of the episode, they hope to leave you a little smarter, a little brighter, and feeling more empowered in the lab.

Donate to The Permaculture Podcast Online: via PayPal Venmo: @permaculturepodcast My guest for this episode is Holly Brown of Island Creek Farm, a small permaculture farm located in Huddleston, Virginia. Holly and I sat down at her home on a mild day in October to talk about her origins as a farmer and what it is like to run a permaculture-based farm on imperfect farmland in western Virginia complete with heat and humidity during the summer and the occasional hard freeze in the winter. On less than one acre farmed organically the farm supported herself and two interns financially, while keeping three restaurants stocked with vegetables, provided fifteen CSA shares, and also fed herself, those interns, and her extended family. She even had enough left over to give to local food pantries. She accomplishes all of this while married with two children, and without the use of insecticides, herbicides, or any tilling. I learned all of this in our time together recording the interview and while we ate lunch and spent several hours walking around her farm. That time together was incredibly inspirational to me and gave me a better understanding of what we can accomplish with the right systems and support. My time with Holly really stuck with me, even now several months later, because this was the first time I saw a farm that was integrated and operating in a way that I would want to run a farm when consider creating my own permaculture demonstration site. Her farm showed the possibilities I read about in books like Peter Bane's The Permaculture Handbook, while remaining true to her own ideals. Holly invited me into the home she shares with her husband and two children, a modest place compared to most of the houses I've seen in America, more reminiscent of the ideas you'll find in the books by Lloyd Kahn or Patricia Foreman, though not quite that small. In the time after the interview she and I shared lunch together, a curry consisting of on-farm vegetables with yogurt she made from local raw milk and a salad containing something like 12 different kinds of lettuces. We then walked around and she showed me her successes and failures, including two different gothic arch greenhouse frames, one of which was strong and supportive that Holly demonstrated by doing a pull-up on, and another that wavered in the wind a bit. If anything, visiting Holly gave me hope that we can build productive permaculture farms that feed people. That we can use little urban, suburban, and rural spaces to grow the food necessary, in an ecologically responsible manner, that can make a real difference.  Are there any farms like Island Creek I should visit to bring back more working examples of permaculture in the world?

Donate to The Permaculture Podcast Online: via PayPal Venmo: @permaculturepodcast Karen Lanier shares what she learned while writing The Woman Hobby Farmer, a book that helps us look inside of ourselves and to decide whether we are ready to farm and to ask the question, “Why do I want to farm?” That core question arises from Karen's life experiences with an aunt who farmed, continuing through the interviews she conducted with women farmers, including some folks, to my delight and surprise, who I've spoken with over the years. Taking those stories and lived moments, Karen shows the importance of showing up, participating, and most importantly listening. Though we may come from a particular place regarding agriculture and farming, we have a lot to learn from our friends, neighbors, and family, who picked up the plow before us. Find out more about her and her work at kalacreative.net. There you can also purchase your own copy of The Woman Hobby Farmer and find more information about her upcoming documentary. Patreon Giveaway: The Woman Hobby Farmer What I love about this conversation with Karen is the reality of what it means to farm, and the need to make the right decision of whether or not we want to. There is a physical toll that comes from farming. A dear friend of mine in the community is facing that knowledge right now and considering how to pass their farm along to someone else to manage so they can “move to town” while continuing to teach the next generation of farmers. An interim space for many of us is a garden. With a little bit of land and a little bit of time we can provide food and security for ourselves, but that discussion and those numbers are a conversation for a different episode. Suffice to say, we should take a stark look at whether or not deciding to start a farm is our best path. Thankfully, as we discussed, Karen provides tools, worksheets, and stories, for helping to make that very serious choice. The other side, as mentioned, is that Yes, you can make a living at this and there is plenty of evidence for that possibility. Some of those include past interviews with Jean-Martin Fortier and Joel Salatin, or what I've personally witnessed from Susana Lein or Holly Brown, but there is a price that comes with it. Many people who farm, by the numbers, do not bring in a great deal of financial income, that is a reality of this, especially as things scale up and more money is spent on tools, equipment, and labor, but there are other possibilities that arise by shifting in this direction. Finally, my favorite insight into all of this is to show up and listen. Get yourself to farms. Find on-farm training sessions. Go and open your ears. Attend agricultural conferences if you can, and not just ones on organic or regenerative. See if your local extension office or land-grant university has meetings. Join The Grange, the full name of which, as I learned while writing this, is The National National Grange of the Order of Patrons of Husbandry. These folks are our allies. Many of them, especially ones like The Grange, want to promote the science of agriculture and community resilience, ideas that should seem common to any permaculture practitioner. We have a lot to learn from them and to share. Show up. Participate. Be a part of your local community. You, and all of us, benefit from working together for the future that we want to see. -- What did you think of this conversation with Karen? Does it give you a different perspective on what you do and don't know about farming and agriculture? Whether you have answers to those or just more questions, I'm here to listen to give more insight if I'm able.

Donate to The Permaculture Podcast Online: via PayPal Venmo: @permaculturepodcast Enjoy this episode? Become a Patron. In 2015 I released 55 episodes. Followers to the show on Facebook and Twitter more than doubled, and listenership is now at over 15,000 per episode, also doubling since the start of the year. This episode is a best of and overview of the preceding twelve months. In preparing the list of what to include, it became a survey of what was popular on the podcast, and in our particular slice of the permaculture community represented by where things have gone, and your interests in reaching out to have certain guests on the air. If you're new to permaculture or this podcast, the various interviews reviewed here and listed in the Resource section at the bottom of the show notes page provide a beginning to explore the archives, which contain hundreds of hours of interviews with a broad cross section of permaculture practitioners, authors, scientists, and others who are all dedicated to creating a better world. Every time I sit down to look over the year that came before, I always toss around different ideas of what to include and how to best represent the trends and ideas, without giving a blow by blow of every topic and conversation. I really enjoy every interview and episode that gets released, so would just list them in order if I had my druthers, but that's not that interesting. Instead, I have to use some kind of metric or decision making process to decide what to share. That might be something like total listens to a given episode, but that gives preference to something that was released earlier in the year. Comments are great, but vary widely, and the more polarizing a guest is leads to more feedback. Even with that feedback, what source to judge from? Though some replies are left on the website, most of the responses continue to come directly to me via email, but some interviews, like that with Jason Godesky, generate a lot of interest on Facebook. So for this year I'm going to look at the topics that trended as the most popular subjects on the show, include a few of my personal favorites, and close with the guest who continues to be the most popular on the show. By far the topic that got the most attention was foraging and rewilding. Every time this subject came up new suggestions poured in for people to reach out to for interviews, other books and articles to read, or different angles to address this idea of primal reconnection to ourselves and the land. The two conversations with Peter Michael Bauer were some of the most downloaded and commented on interviews of the year. Peter's first conversation in March, providing an introduction to human rewilding and the intersection with permaculture, was so well received that he returned in November to explore the difference between rewilding the land and how that differs from un-domesticating ourselves. Dina Falconi, author of Foraging and Feasting, was the other guest garnered a lot of attention. Her discussion of food as medicine, the idea of developing and using master recipes, and the distinction between a plant as food or a culinary addition resonated with many people. From the landscape and the self we move to human society and our cultural stories, which played a big part this year in the discussions about social permaculture. Where these most connected were when many voices came together as one in the round table recordings. Repeatedly I've heard from you that you listened to those over and over again, including the two conversations with Ben Weiss and Dave Jacke, one of which included Charles Eisenstein; the journey to the Riverside Project in West Virginia where Nicole Luttrell, Jesse Wyner, Ashley Davis, and Diane Blust joined me for another two pieces that started talking about permaculture, but settled into a what it means to call a place home; and then the largest round table yet, with the Clear Creek community outside of Berea, Kentucky. Though each one touched on very different ideas the space created by coming together felt like you were invited to be a part of the circle to sit, ask questions, and listen. In some case we were able to do that by including your questions as you tweeted or posted comments to Facebook while the interviews were recorded. Along with those, the social and cultural side were pushed to the edge in the discussion of with Jason Godesky. Though on the surface we talked about narrative, mythmaking, and how we can accomplish that through games such as his own The Fifth World, there was a deeper exploration of push-pull experienced between waking up and turning on lights and having on demand hot water and how to live a life that isn't just a reduced consumption that is still damaging, but something more regenerative. I'm thankful for the voice Jason brought to the table that day, after we'd already had a long weekend at Save Against Fear, and were still able to look at the difference between the modern versus the traditional; holistic compared to reductionist; and personal responsibility versus systemic hegemony. Moving outside of the topics of interest, there are three episodes I feel deserve mentioned here as ones you should listen to if you haven't heard them, or listen to them again if you have. The first is Joshua Peaceseeker Hughes and our overview of modern permaculture that resulted in the first episode explicitly looking at the need for Transitional Ethics during this time of transformation. His personal story created an acknowledgement that we can do more, but that doing so involves making an active choice. To embody permaculture and live it intentionally, but not to abuse ourselves for being citizens of the world we find ourselves in. The second was when I returned to the Faith and Earth Care series through the interview with Dillon Cruz. I was initially a little hesitant about releasing the conversation because this series as a whole usually generates a lot of feedback, often negatively. Dillon's time on the air did bring a number of replies, often private via email, but in a different way. His raw voice and self awareness lead to responses that stretched across a variety of religious traditions, and gave form to an expression of faith as a way to tend the world we are given that is a personal pursuit compatible with designing the world we want to live in. There was no hatemail this time around for covering spirituality within permaculture, but, then again, this wasn't that kind of conversation. The final of the stand-alone, stand-out episodes, comes from time spent with Eric and Victoria of Charm City Farms, in Baltimore, Maryland. In particular it was Victoria's personal journey that opened a space to hear a voice that sounded similar to our own. She came from a place where she could make any of a number of choices towards the life she lived, and worked through the struggles of what path lead to a sense of self and right livelihood. Every time I sit down with a microphone I never know what will wind up being recorded or where the interview will go. That day in Baltimore lead to something special and I'm grateful to Victoria for allowing me to share that with you. Now that I've covered the episodes I heard from you about, there are two that were some of my personal favorites. Those were with Holly Brown of Island Creek Farm, and talking with Toby Hemenway about The Permaculture City. Holly means so much to my own journey as a permaculture practitioner not only for the content of the conversation you can listen to, but also because of the way that we spent our the time together the day we met. She was the last stop on my journey through Virginia visiting with permaculture farmers and homesteaders, that started with Lee and Dave O'Neill of Radical Roots several days earlier. That morning, as I drove out to her farm, I found myself a little road weary and ready to start the trek back up North on Interstate 81 to Pennsylvania. I love to drive, it's something instilled in me by my father at a young age as I sat in the back of classic American muscle, and later Swedish GT cars, and then my own life as a gear-head behind the wheel of Japanese sports cars and GT cars of my own, but I despise getting on I-81 for more than an hour or so, and the thought of four hours from Virginia back home that day felt like a stretch of my own personal hell laid out in asphalt. While winding my way through back roads, already running late after sitting in traffic while trying to leave Roanoke, I began to question this last stop of the day, and whether to reschedule with Holly for another time. The closer I got to the farm the roads got narrower and the speed limits much lower, and I still didn't know what I would find, or how this last conversation would close out a whirlwind journey, my first time taking the podcast on the road to visit, talk, and document in person. Finally, after nearly two hours in the car for what should have taken less than an hour, I rounded  the last turn and came to the Island Creek. After backing up a bit because I missed the lane, for the first time I saw why Holly and her farm were recommended as a place to visit. The site was gorgeous, and there, out in the fields, were a pair of souls working the land with their hands, skin deeply tanned from time spent out of doors. Shortly they would be revealed as Holly and one of her farm interns. Within moments of meeting, after Holly and her intern finished the harvesting and business for the day, Holly and I stepped into the small home she shares with her husband and children, a home built by their hands on land donated to their family as a wedding gift, and ate a lunch of vegetable curry, topped with yogurt she made from raw milk sourced from another nearby farm, and paired with a salad of her own variety of mixed greens. Before the interview, we sat and talked about children, family, and life. Afterwards, while touring the farm where I got to eat my first fresh fig right, pulled right off the tree, we discussed the politics of being a permaculture farmer in an area with a conservative view of farming that views modern, industrial drive agriculture as the only way; and how to make the choices required to have a successful permaculture farm that runs counter to those ideas that others see as norms, reinforced by our society we live in. Though that all happened outside of the conversation you can listen to on the show, many of the tenets and tone you'll find there. Holly is someone I look forward to visiting again to sit down and continue to push the edges of what it means to embody permaculture as a small-scale farmer working the land, fueled by calories not fossil fuels. The impact of that day is also why you'll see the picture of Holly's farm as the cover image of this episode. On the other side of that, looking at living in a rural setting, was Toby Hemenway. Well known and carrying high regarded within our community, I'd chased him off and on through the years for an interview, but we never quite connected. I'll admit to never being a fan of Gaia's Garden, but The Permaculture City was like talking with an old friend, which was what the resulting interview felt like. Warm and gracious, but a bit heretical because Toby did the math and raised questions about the practicality and sustainability of the permaculture dream of going off-grid, returning to the land, and seeking self-sufficiency. As he says in the book, he's done subsistence farming, and it isn't a joy by any sense of the imagination, it's hard work that many of us are not realistically ready for, so what can we do to do us and what we are ready for and good at? This latest work also took permaculture a step further out of the landscape, to areas where there may be no soil to grow in, or if we're not suited to it, may honestly be a waste of our time and energy. What then? What do we do to still live in a regenerative manner, during this period of transition, to lessen our consumption and impacts, when the answer is counter to so many years of conversation and literature on what we're told permaculture is supposed to be, and what it is supposed to look like? Deep down we've known the truth, the answers, we've heard it before through people like Bob Theis imploring that we don't go out and inflict ourselves on a piece of land that doesn't need us, or Dave Jacke addressing that what we called Invisible Structures for so long need to be framed for what they are, social and economic systems. And here in his book and conversation with me,  was the number one selling author on the subject of permaculture calling all of that into question, and asking us to examine our own choices. Here were some of my doubts about the permaculture narrative given a voice. Was my mind blown? Yeah, just a little, and it's what has taken me a road to continue to stand in two worlds and create a place, through the podcast, to look at these bigger pictures and questions so we can build permanent culture, rather than just insuring we achieve permanent agriculture. With all those voices and conversations and the others in the archives, can you guess who the number one guest of all time on the show is out of the last five years, and so receives an honorable mention? Are you shocked at all if I say Ethan Hughes? His insight and thoughts continue to connect with so many people, including to my surprise, a number of folks from Australia and New Zealand. The work of his, to embrace and embody permaculture in a way that is personally fulfilling, but non-proselytizing, shows a different way forward. I might not ever to live the way he does, because as Eric Toensmeier and I have talked about I like electricity and the ability to communicate worldwide instantaneously via the internet,  his actions help me get a little bit closer to where I want to be every time we talk or I listen back over the public interviews. It's why I picked up the phone and called him to talk about my desire here in Pennsylvania to create an urban demonstration site and semi-intentional community. As that phone call drew to a close, and he'd shared a number of insights in how to start a project like that, the conversation lead to us talking about writing, in particular a book about his personal journey, but with the practical insights necessary so anyone can create change where they are, as conventionally or radically as they like. Even more to my surprise, Ethan asked me to be his partner on the project, which resulted in what we're calling The Possibility Handbook. As a new year dawns, so does a new project, and I leave for The Possibility Alliance on January 15, 2016 to sit down, off-grid, and record with Ethan. If you would like to learn more about The Possibility Handbook in particular, visit the thepermaculturepodcast.com/book. There you can listen to a short interview with Mr. Hughes discussing the contents we'll cover, and what he hopes to accomplish by bringing this into the world. You'll also find information and links on how to take part in a listener-only crowdfunding campaign where you'll  receive early access to the book materials as they become available, and exclusive content that will not be offered anywhere but there.

My guest for this episode is Stephen Barstow, author of Around the World in 80 Plants. Today we talk about his incredibly diverse garden in Norway where he grows over 2,000 edible plants in a rather small space. We begin with his background and how he came to have an interest in edibles, from his beginnings as a foraging vegetarian, through to his beginning to eat and collect plants from wherever he traveled. He shares with us his love of edible ornamentals, or what Stephen calls edimentals, and he also recommends some to start with when first beginning to introduce more of these species into your garden. One of my favorites, not mentioned in the interview proper, are nasturtiums. What's incredible to me is that Stephen is growing so many different varieties on such a small amount of space, which echoes what I learned from Holly Brown, and yet he's doing it in a northerly climate. Less than a quarter acre, or 1/10th of a hectare, and he has over 2,000 different plants. At 64 degrees North latitude. I knew that was fairly far up, but didn't have a real understanding until I compared it to other cities and saw that this is the same latitude as Fairbanks, Alaska. I took this a step further and checked the Koppen-Geiger climate classification and confirmed that where Stephen is corresponds with other Northerly latitudes, yet he's growing all these plants. It's just amazing. I'm including the copy of this book, which I received from Chelsea Green, in the Traveling Permaculture Library project.

Donate to The Permaculture Podcast Online: via PayPal Venmo: @permaculturepodcast My guest for this episode is Holly Brown of Island Creek Farm, a small permaculture farm located in Huddleston, Virginia. Holly and I sat down at her home on a mild day in October to talk about her origins as a farmer and what it is like to run a permaculture based farm on imperfect farmland in western Virginia complete with heat and humidity during the summer and the occasional hard freeze in the winter. On less than one acre farmed organically the farm supported herself and two interns financially, while keeping three restaurants stocked with vegetables, provided fifteen CSA shares, and also fed herself, those interns, and her extended family. She even had enough left over to give to local food pantries. She accomplishes all of this while married with two children, and without the use of insecticides, herbicides, or any tilling. I learned all of this in our time together recording the interview and while we ate lunch and spent several hours walking around her farm. That time together was incredibly inspirational to me and gave me a better understanding of what we can accomplish with the right systems and support. My time with Holly really stuck with me, even now several months later, because this was the first time I saw a farm that was integrated and operating in a way that I would want to run a farm when consider creating my own permaculture demonstration site. Her farm showed the possibilities I read about in books like Peter Bane's The Permaculture Handbook, while remaining true to her own ideals. Holly invited me into the home she shares with her husband and two children, a modest place compared to most of the houses I've seen in America, more reminiscent of the ideas you'll find in the books by Lloyd Kahn, though not quite that small. In the time after the interview she and I shared lunch together, a curry consisting of on-farm vegetables with yogurt she made from local raw milk and a salad containing something like 12 different kinds of lettuces. We then walked around and she showed me her successes and failures, including two different gothic arch greenhouse frames, one of which was strong and supportive that Holly demonstrated by doing a pull-up on, and another that wavered in the wind a bit. If anything, visiting Holly gave me hope that we can build productive permaculture farms that feed people. That we can use little urban, suburban, and rural spaces to grow the food necessary, in an ecologically responsible manner, that can make a real difference. From that she, and the conversation with Rick Williams, inspired me to do even more, in this space and in the soil. We can create a bountiful world for our selves and all life on earth.

My guest for this episode is Rick Williams of Lick Run Farm, a growing urban farm in Roanoke, Virginia. Rick was my first stop once I got into Roanoke as part of my road trip in October of 2014. We sat down at his farm in one of the city neighborhoods to discuss his vision of how that space, and others like it, can act as hubs for community development and enrichment. I'd like to thank Michael Grantz for helping me to organize this interview, as well as all the other farm visits while in Virginia. I'd also like to thank all the listeners who support the podcast, allowing me to go and visit Rick and the others on this trip. Without your generous gifts, none of this would be possible. You can make a one time or recurring monthly donation by going to: www.thepermaculturepodcast.com/support. What I enjoyed in meeting Rick is that he is actively pursuing this work. He's in the neighborhood he wants to be in and building his farm from the ground up even though he has questions about how things are going to operate and creating the plan as he goes. His approach might not be the one you'll hear about in a business development course, but he's embodying what he wants to see happen and learning along the way. As we said, succeed or fail, he is trying something different and exploring the possibilities. I don't know where he'll be in a few years, but I do plan to check up on him with another trip to Lick Run in the future and find out what lessons he's partaken in while creating this dream. Another part of this was when he talked about how there are things he doesn't want to do in order to keep doing what he's doing. I can deeply relate to that feeling as I know what it's like to spend a lot of time focusing on what feels like the wrong things and not getting what you want done. One of the question I often get asked is how I can produce the podcast, email and call people back and spend hours answering questions or just talking, while still being a present father and going back to school. Focusing on the things that I like to do is a big part of that. As I do, it doesn't feel like work. It can be difficult, and I'm always busy, but it's enjoyable to pursue. Just as Rick wants to work on building the farm as a community hub, I focus on creating the podcast to add more voices to the discussion, and on helping you, the listener. I found my calling. I love it, and whatever I have to do to keep on keeping on, I am going to. Along the way I'll be here to assist you, so please reach out to me if there is anything I can do for you.
