Ein Start-up, das die Fußballer Mario Gomez und Thomas Müller zu seinen Investoren zählt und zugleich interessant für die Immobilienwirtschaft ist, macht uns natürlich neugierig. Deshalb haben wir Johannes Blei in unseren Podcast InterACT Insights eingeladen. Er ist als Finanzexperte einer von drei Vorständen der Organic Garden AG und war zuvor bereits bei Airbus und Jochen Schweitzer tätig.  Mittlerweile ist er Mitgesellschafter bei Organic Garden, einem Food-Startup, das die Produktion von Nahrungsmitteln mal ganz anders angeht – nämlich in einem Kreislaufsystem auf eigenen nachhaltigen Farmen. In einem ausgeklügelten System aufeinander abgestimmter Module produzieren die 15 Hektar großen Farmen Gemüse, Fisch, Pilze und Algen. Der Clou: Ganz im Sinne des Kreislaufgedankens können die Abfallstoffe des einen Moduls sinnvoll beim nächsten Modul genutzt werden. So entsteht kaum Abfall und nur sehr wenig CO2 – dafür gibt es gesundes regionales Essen. Inklusive der Energieversorgung – die natürlich ebenfalls nachhaltig erfolgt – benötigt eine einzige Farm ein Investment von satten 100 Millionen Euro. Kein Pappenstiel und dennoch soll es bis 2030 in Deutschland insgesamt 10 Farmen geben. Wer die Abnehmer der Organic Garden Nahrungsmittel sind, wie das Start-up an die nötigen Grundstücke kommt, welche Erfahrungen es bei der Baurechtschaffung macht und warum es lieber auf den eigenen Vertrieb als auf Handels- oder Supermarktketten setzt, darüber hat Host Markus Gerharz mit Johannes Blei in der aktuellen Folge gesprochen. Viel Vergnügen mit einer neuen Folge von InterACT Insights!

This week's guest is Émely Steegstra-Hendrix. This story is the epitome of following what fulfills you in every which way, especially when you are faced with a serious illness. The energy you get from following your passion can truly heal you from the inside out. Émely has a long family legacy of female chefs. It wasn't until she was faced with her own health challenges, that she became determined to find a way of growing her own vegetables while enjoying urban living. Émely is the founder of Easy Urban Gardening-system, specifically designed for raised beds or containers on balconies and terraces in town, to help city dwellers enjoy fresh harvested vegetables without the exhaustive work. Of course combined with inspiration and guidance on how to turn those veggies in delicious, fresh home-made meals.She now passes on her family legacy in food, cooking, flavour combinations and fresh ingredients. My favourite Émely quotes: "Being unhappy in a job and frustrated of not being able to fully bloom, and fully contribute with all the talents that I have, was kinda necessary for me to realize that there was this other thing in life, which is called food and cooking..that was my passion, that was meant for me to do." "Gardening is way broader than just healthy greens on your plate." "Starting a garden...is not only about your physical health but it's also a lot about your mental health and general well being."

Root knot nematodes are a microscopic parasite that sucks the life out of your plants. In this episode we talk about strategies we use when we discover an infestation of root knot nematodes.

As the use of cover crops continues to increase on local farms, home gardeners may be interested in trying the practice in their very own backyard.

I have pulled one of my favorite instructional podcasts out of the archives for today! It features my great gardening friend, Jackie Marie Beyer, of the Green Organic Garden Podcast, as my guest. I do not have a green thumb, and this show has helped me a lot with gardening! Jackie started the Green Organic Garden Podcast in 2015. Her initial motivation was to give her husband, their head gardener at home, a platform for teaching people how to garden. He has a lot of gardening knowledge to share, and when Jackie started her podcast, she knew very little about gardening. Jackie is now my resident expert for all things gardening! Over the last five years, she has done more than 300 interviews on the Green Organic Garden Podcast with some of the most incredible gardeners who have all shared their knowledge! And although Jackie works full-time as an elementary school teacher, she has found that she is spending more and more time in the garden each year. In today’s episode, Jackie will be talking to us about some of the things that we can do for Mother Nature that will help people learn, and she will tell us about some of the easier vegetables to plant indoors. Be sure to stay tuned for more! The Organic Oasis Guidebook There are all different kinds of gardeners. Jackie and her husband wrote a book called The Organic Oasis Guidebook to help people grow vegetables because growing vegetables is a different learning curve from gardening. Jackie’s husband’s goal Jackie’s husband grew up on a cattle ranch. His current goal is to grow as much food as he possibly can to supplement the produce that they need. It involves intense gardening, and Jackie refers to his garden as his “mini-farm”. Jackie explains why her podcast is so successful One of the reasons why Jackie’s podcast is so successful is because of all of her amazing guests and their willingness to share their tips, their expertise, and their gardening secrets. Authentic, garden math problems and challenges Jackie is an elementary school teacher, and for the last two years, she has been posting videos online, with authentic, garden math problems and challenges for her students to solve. Carrots Carrots are easy to grow but hard for adults to plant because the seeds are so tiny. Carrot seeds fit very nicely into the hands of little kids, however. Kids Contrary to popular belief, Jackie knows that kids love eating freshly harvested fruits and vegetables! Indoor gardening Jackie’s favorite things to grow indoors are herbs in pots on her window sill. She loves to have basil plants growing indoors at all times. Arugula If you grow arugula indoors, you can start picking and eating the leaves when they are still tiny, and you will get lots of flavor out of them. The leaves will keep on growing until they eventually reach the size of a lettuce leaf. Cherry tomatoes You can grow cherry tomatoes indoors. Cherry tomato plants might be a bit too big for a window sill, but you can grow them in a pot on the floor next to a window. Then you can also put the plant outside on the patio in the summer. Seeds, versus starter plants Gardening is a bit like an experiment, and some seeds are easier to propagate than others. Growing vegetables from starter plants, if you can find them at a farmer’s market, will be faster than growing them from seeds. Sprouts Jackie likes to start growing her sprouts in December. You can buy a seed sprouter, or you can make one from a large mason jar covered with a piece of window screen fabric. Place a layer of organic radish, alfalfa, broccoli, or any other sprouting seeds on the bottom and soak them in two inches of water for twenty-four hours. Then, pour the water out and rinse the seeds in clear water every day until they have grown big enough to get eaten. Bigger container gardening It is possible to grow your herbs and vegetables in all kinds of different containers, and some people even like to plant their vegetables in specially designed cloth bags because they are easier to haul around. Soil health With container gardening, you have more say about the kind of soil that you use because you can decide from which source you want to take it. Companion planting Marigolds are good for planting with tomatoes because they put out a strong scent that repels the bugs that eat tomato plants and leaves. Nasturtiums are also good companion plants for planting next to vegetables in containers to repel bugs. Container plants Vegetables that grow above the ground are better for planting in containers. Root crops, however, usually do better growing in outdoor beds.

What is happening in the organic garden this season? My guest (via Zoom) is Inspector Dave who is a brilliant organic gardener. He always describes each year as an experiment because you are always learning and planning for the future. (The photo of the organic garden was taken by Inspector Dave).

In the enchanting world of the Costa Rican mountains, Sandra Shaw Homer begins her memoir, tracing the seasons and carefully observing the natural riches around her. But Evelio, who helped build their house, interrupts with an idea to plant an organic garden on their property. Over a challenging year full of unpredictable weather, wild animals, and toxic chemicals, their friendship grows as Evelio teaches her about the rural sustainability of Costa Rica in decades past. He pulls her into the daily ups and downs of his project. Evelio creates an often funny, always frustrating, and ultimately rewarding counterpoint to her work, such that the two intertwine on the page, and lead her to confront a painful past and open up to profound personal change. Sandra Shaw Homer has lived in Costa Rica for 29 years, where she has taught languages and worked as an interpreter/translator and environmental activist. She writes a column in the local press, and her creative nonfiction, fiction, and poetry have appeared in a variety of print and online literary and travel journals, as well as on her blog. Sandra Shaw Homer's travel memoir, Letters from the Pacific: 49 Days on a Cargo Ship, received excellent Kirkus and Publishers Weekly reviews. Join Sandra Shaw Homer and me on Tuesday, July 28, 10 - 11 A.M. CT US. We will be having a conversation about her remarkable life's journey, and the recently released memoir, Evelio's Garden.

Is your irrigation killing your plants? What is more important than your plants? How do you water your food gardens correctly? What's the best way to water an organic garden?

It’s time to get growing! Jackie Marie Beyer, of the Green Organic Garden Podcast, joins us once again for today’s show. Jackie has been podcasting for a little over five years now and she runs a one-woman-show. At the time of this recording, she had single-handedly produced 311 episodes of her podcast, while also working full-time as a teacher.  Jackie had what she describes as a “brown thumb” when she started her podcast. She’s managed to turn that around over the last five years, however, and now she feels confident that she can grow a fair amount of food.  Today, Jackie will share some simple steps that you can take to create a supply of fresh, healthy, organic garden herbs and vegetables. She will explain which vegetables are easy to grow, and she will suggest some of the things you might want to put in your yard or landscape if you’re new to gardening. Jackie’s book Jackie and her husband, Mike, wrote a book called The Organic Oasis Guidebook, which explains how spending much of your time living outdoors is good for you, and good for Mother Nature too. Because what’s good for us is also good for where we live.  In the book, you will find a challenge for new vegetable gardeners.  There are many reasons to grow garden vegetables Starting a vegetable garden at home will not only give you constant access to a supply of fresh, health-giving greens, it can also save you a lot of money as organic vegetables that are sold at local farmer’s markets are often quite pricey.  Backyard gardening, patio gardening, indoor gardening, and raising food of our own is currently becoming very appealing to more and more of us! So much so that online seed suppliers are battling to keep up with the demand.  Starting with a new garden If Jackie had to start a new garden now, she would plant one small, deep bed, one larger deep bed, and some kind of fruit.  She would grow carrots, lettuce, and peas outside, planting them in the second week in April. The lettuce should come up quickly, but the carrots could take a little longer. Sugar snap peas grow vertically so they’re nice to plant if you have a smaller area to grow things in.  With lettuce, you have a choice. You can either harvest them whole or you can pick the leaves and they will keep growing. Jackie’s favorite lettuce to grow is black-seeded Simpson. As long as you keep picking them, they will keep on growing until they start to bolt. She would also plant a cherry tomato plant in a pot. Planting fruit The great thing about planting certain fruit trees, like raspberry bushes, blueberry bushes, apple trees, peach, and plum trees, is that they will come back year after year. They might need to be cut back a bit, or pruned, but for the most part, they will keep producing more and more as they get older. And it doesn’t take too much effort to care for them.  Berries and cherry tomatoes are very easy to freeze as they don’t have to be cooked beforehand.  The easiest way If it’s too much work for you to dig up a patch of your sod to make a vegetable garden, you can mark out an area, lay down some newspaper to cover the sod in that area and soak it with a lot of water. Then place some cardboard on top of the newspaper and cover it with compost, manure, or some very good soil. Within two weeks to a month, you will be able to plant right on top of the sod without having to dig it up. This can save you a lot of back-breaking work.  Talk to your neighbors Most people are very willing to share their garden knowledge. So talk to your neighbors to find out what they’re growing, and when they plant things.  Companion planting Planting a border of flowers and herbs around your garden is very pretty to look at, it smells fantastic, and it helps reduce the number of bad pests that would otherwise come into your garden and eat your vegetables. Planting sunflowers around your vegetables is also a good idea because they attract ants, which eat aphids, so the aphids are more likely to stay away from your food plants. Some good companion plants are marigolds and nasturtiums. Remember to always have something blooming in your garden. Build your soil by planting cover crops Don’t have to let your bare soil sit for longer than twenty-four hours. You can plant cover crops in a small garden to build your soil if you only want to plant something in a couple of months but you want to dig the bed right now. The cover crop will put nutrients into the soil and you can remove it before it goes to seed, leaving you with a bed full of nutrient-rich soil.  Some good cover-crops are things like clover, buckwheat, sweet potatoes, and radishes.  If you don’t have anything else to plant in their place, you can allow your lettuces go to flower rather than pulling them out.  Links and Resources: Everyday Green Home The GREEN Organic Garden Podcast - Check Out Jackie’s FREE Organic Gardening Course!

In this episode of the CHCA Entrepreneurial Podcast, I interview both Alex O'Brien (class of 2017) and Maria Pancioli (class of 2019). Alex O'Brien began building the CHCA Organic Garden as a 7th grader and, upon graduation, handed the project off to Maria Pancioli. Alex discusses how building the garden taught him the importance of collaborating in teams for problem solving, and Maria discusses how the garden was instrumental in her path to study horticulture. The CHCA Organic Garden is a core part of the burgeoning entrepreneurship program at the school and will be used in bringing farm-to-school hands-on learning to all grades at Cincinnati Hills Christian Academy.

There's so much happening in the world right now, as we find ourselves in the middle of an unprecedented global pandemic. This led Marla to reach out to today's guest, Jackie Marie Beyer, of the Green Organic Garden Podcast, because there is always something we can do, and Jackie has some really helpful information to share with all of us today.  Jackie is Marla's resident expert about all things gardening. She lives in Northwest Montana, and she works as an elementary school teacher. Today she will be talking to us about some things that we can do for Mother Nature, and to help people learn.  Starting with the Green Organic Garden Podcast Jackie started her podcast back in 2015, intending for her husband, who is their head gardener at home, to teach people how to garden. Apart from growing a few geraniums, Jackie used to know almost nothing about gardening at the time.  Now, she has reached her 311th interview on the Green Organic Garden Podcast. In the five years that the podcast has been running, Jackie has interviewed hundreds of the most incredible gardeners who have all shared their knowledge. And although she works full-time, Jackie has found that she is spending more and more time in the garden each year.   Growing vegetables is a separate learning curve from gardening Some gardeners like to grow only flowers, and others prefer doing vegetables or landscapes.  Jackie's husband grew up on a cattle ranch. He now has a "mini-farm" going at their home and his goal is to grow as much organic food as possible to supplement their family's needs.  Becoming a more effective and efficient gardener On the Green Organic Garden Podcast, Jackie interviews experts on all aspects of gardening. And they share their secrets to becoming a more productive, effective, and efficient gardener.  A teacher's life Jackie has been considering what things will look like if nobody is allowed to go back to school on Monday, after Spring Break, so she’s been looking for new and exciting things to post online for her students.  Kids love gardening, and Jackie loves posting authentic garden-math problems and challenges for her students. She started doing it one winter, two years ago when her school was closed for a snowstorm, and she made some videos for her students about counting all the loose change that they could find in their homes.  Carrots are easy to grow but hard to plant Carrots are one of the easiest vegetables to grow, but they are hard to plant because the seeds are so tiny. Children's fingers are much smaller, however, so they can plant the seeds, and space them out, quite easily. An innovative way to plant carrot seeds with the right spaces between them is to cut strips of newspaper and, using a paste made from flour and water, stick the carrot seeds onto the strips of newspaper, about an inch apart. Then simply plant the strips of newspaper and keep watering them. Then, wait for the carrots to start growing.  Growing things indoors Jackie’s favorite things to grow indoors are herbs, in pots. And she loves to always have a basil plant growing on her windowsill, where it is easy to water it.  To grow herbs indoors, Jackie prefers to use an organic seed starter, like Espoma Organic Seed Starter Potting Mix. You can put some of it into a planting pot with some pebbles at the bottom for good drainage and some dirt. Put it in a sunny spot and be sure to water it every day.  Arugula is another good plant to grow indoors because the leaves are full of flavor and you can start eating them when they are still tiny. The arugula plant will continue growing until the leaves reach their full size, similar to lettuce leaves. The herbs that Jackie loves to grow indoors Jackie loves to grow basil, parsley, rosemary, arugula (her favorite), cilantro, and cherry tomatoes in pots indoors, on her patio, or her windowsill.   Is it better to start growing seeds or starter plants indoors? If you can get hold of some starter plants at a farmer’s market, they will mature faster than seeds will. And some seeds will propagate faster than others. Rosemary and lavender are a bit more difficult to grow, so it would be best to grow them from starter plants.  Sprouts Jackie likes to start making sprouts in December. To do that, you can buy a sprouter and place some organic sprouting mix, or some radish, alfa-alfa, broccoli, or any other sprout seeds on the bottom, and soak them in two inches of water for twenty-four hours. Then, pour the water out and rinse the seeds in clear water every day until they have grown enough to be eaten. Bigger container gardening It is possible to grow herbs and vegetables in all sorts of containers, indoors or even on the patio.  Referral Links and Products: https://www.amazon.com/Romanesco-Broccoli-Heirloom-Seeds-Pollinated/dp/B01JSH1MVQ/ref=everydaygr025-20 https://www.amazon.com/Chives-Herb-Heirloom-Seeds-Pollinated/dp/B01JT2J4BA/ref=everydaygr025-20 https://www.amazon.com/Vegetable-Spaghetti-Squash-Heirloom-Seeds/dp/B01JZUNL2O/ref=everydaygr025-20 https://organicgardenerpodcast.com/ Free E-book on Organic Gardener Basics The Organic Oasis Guide Book -  Espoma Organic Seed Starter Premium Potting Mix  

So I just did an interview with the amazing Diane Belzak at the National Garden Bureau who has the most awesome mission and sent me an email about building Victory Gardens and so I wanted to share this update with you and my recipe for Carrot Soup. What are you cooking during this crazy time of quarantine? Mike planting carrots seeds: One every half inch and then thin... (https://youtu.be/bVeLoHnrGXA) https://youtu.be/bVeLoHnrGXA Carrot SoupSaute some garlic or onions... add a bit of red pepper chopped up (like a sweet red pepper from the grocery store, not hot red pepper seeds) add carrots cleaned (and peeled if you like) and cut into pieces. I added a bag of small carrots from school, but I would say about a 2lb bag full? add some water to just about covering the carrots and let simmer for about 15-20 minutes. Add some chopped kale at the end with the ribs cut off. I forgot the Peanut Butter!!! and the COCONUT MILK!!!! First I blended the coconut milk in the food processor before adding the cooked ingredients to the food processor. I think I added some spices like curry, nutmeg, and turmeric. Take the thick mixture and pulse in food processor. Save the liquid. When reheating add a little mixture of the broth to make a soup consistency and add a dollop of yogurt and chopped cilantro. OH So good. Serve with a slice of Mike's homemade whole wheat bread and ummm emm good!

The Modern Homesteading Podcast, Episode 113 – February 3, 2019 – Building Your Own Organic Garden Oasis With Guest Jackie Beyer of the Organic Gardener Podcast. On today’s podcast episode I have a chat with Jackie Beyer of the Organic Gardener Podcast about her journey into organic gardening, her podcast and building an organic gardening oasis. Jackie grew up on Long Island about 20 miles from NYC. In 4th grade she read a book about a girl who moves to northwest Montana. From that day on she was determined to move there and at 21 she entered the University of Montana. During her junior year she met her husband Mike on a mountainside and they have been together for over 24 years now! Mike has been gardening in the Rocky Mountains for 40 something years. Jackie launched the Organic Gardener Podcast in January 2015 and has interviewed over 260 gardeners and food experts.

How to prep soil for an organic garden

How to prep soil for an organic garden

In this podcast, host Jimmy Young learns about hemp, topicals, and many other uses of the cannabis plant that is all the rage in wellness and pain management. Alex Brandon from Ralph's Organic Garden in Cambridge explains how the anti inflammatory component in cannabis (CBD) can be infused into an organic balm that can help manage the pain of arthritis.

Click Here: http://www.thepermaculturestudent.com/course-signup/permaculture-gardening-with-matt-powers Have you followed all the organic gardening advice out there that you can find and are you still not seeing the kind of results you're looking?  I was there - I wanted a giant garden so I could stop paying huge sums of money for organic food and still provide safe food for my family (my wife is a 3 time cancer survivor and we have two young boys and I was just a substitute teacher at that point - so this HAD to work for me). The deer, wild pigs, ground squirrels, the dead dirt, the drought, the heat. It was all so extreme in the Central Valley of California that most people thought it was impossible to garden there unless you spent more money and time than it was worth. I didn't have money - I had the ability to research, study, and test the most cutting edge and advanced gardening techniques though - I had access to land and the internet. There are many amazing techniques, methodologies, and disciplines out there, but none of them cut it in the 140°F soils, severe drought, and heavy animal pressure that I was experiencing. It took permaculture design course for me to understand the principles behind my situation, so that I could partner with nature and grow hundreds of pounds of food effortlessly in 2 acre year-round garden without fences while growing feet of soil and astonishing local farmers and enchanting PBS viewers and local visitors. No offsite inputs were used aside from straw, animal feed, manure, and seeds and it was managed with only hand tools.  Is this just for folks in my climate or able-bodied folk like me? No, it's based on universal natural principles: I've taught students how to apply permaculture principles to gardening in all the major climates and on all continents excepting Antartica, helping hundreds of students of all ages and abilities in my online courses over the pasts 2 years. My students are saving gallons of seed, growing hundreds of pounds of food, and growing rampant gardens of unruly beauty - many of my students are also becoming leaders and teachers in their regions and communities, and you can too. You've waiting long enough for the garden of your dreams - your time is now: http://www.thepermaculturestudent.com/course-signup/permaculture-gardening-with-matt-powers

LINKS Humus and Clay... http://wp.me/p5Cqpo-eAT John Seymour Masanobu Fukuoka Daikon radish Start your own Organic Garden: 7 tips! http://wp.me/p5Cqpo-eB5 Sustainability Through Compost Tea. http://wp.me/p5Cqpo-eDW Ten Acres Enough **** This is the World Organic News for the week ending 10th of April 2017. Jon Moore reporting! This week we focus on the soil! From the blog of LaToya M. Crick Soil Food Web Consultant comes a post on humus and clay. Quote: Clay and humus play an important role in soil structure and plant growth, however, too much of one of them is frustrating and too little of the other is a pending death sentence. What is clay? Clay in soil is a fine-grained natural rock or soil material and appears in deposits due to weatherization. ( If you are living in Brazoria County, Texas then you are living on a deposit- ha!) Clay can appear in soil in various colors from white to dull grey or brown to deep orange-red. A clay particle is finer than silt and sand and according to geologist and soil scientist,  a clay particle is less than 2 micrometer. And from further in the post: Now, what about Humus? Humus is the end product of decomposed organic matter that was had by soil microbes. It can be seen as the chocolate/black gold of the earth and acts as an anchor for soil nutrients. It appears in color ranging from dark brown to black and smells earthy and is fluffy to the touch. Humus is negatively charged and has a high cation-exchange-capacity (CEC) that helps the soil retain water and positively charged elements that are beneficial to plant health. End Quote The funny thing about clay and all soils for that matter is a thing I learned from John Seymour. It your clay content is too high, add organic matter to your soil. Organic matter, it turns out feeds and creates humus. At the other end of the soil scale: sandy soil the solution is to add (pauses for effect) organic matter which it turns out feeds and creates humus. You can see where this is heading. Clay soils have their own particular needs when it comes to incorporating organic matter. The drill in the olden days, the 1970s, was to dig deeply and bury organic matter. Can you guess what the solution is today? Yep, raised bed no-dig gardens. It turns out the soil is capable of pulling the organic matter down into the clay soils and invigorating them.  Clay pans can be a problem. That is hardened clay layers under the level at which the shovel or the plough reached. On acreage sized land units, a ripper can be employed to shatter the pan. This lets water and organic matter into the soil profile. This is especially beneficial when the rips are along the contour lines of the paddock. Masanobu Fukuoka used an alternative method the release these clay pans. He broadcast daikon radish seeds. His compacted clay problem was in an orchard so that ripping was not an option. These radishes grow upto a metre in length and as thick as a man’s forearm. By their very growth habits they loosen compacted soils. Once loosen and with organic matter spread on top, either in no-dog garden beds or spread across paddocks by slashing them or grazing them, the process of humus creation can occur. Clearly this is not a “quick fix” solution but it is one which works with Nature and her rhythms. When that occurs we are moving in the right direction. I might also add here that artificial fertilisers will destroy humic acid in very little time. This means more are needed in the next growing season and so on. The slower Natural way is less expensive too as a rule. Having sorted your soils the next step is to garden. DR. EDDY BETTERMANN MD delivered a post: Start your own Organic Garden: 7 tips! These are useful and so I’ll repeat them here to pique your interest. Have a read of the article if you need more on this. Link is, of course, in the show notes. Plan your garden before planting your crops, it’ll help you reap the best harvest possible. Less is More It may seem like a good idea to plant every edible plant that you love to eat… but it may be better to start with a small, manageable garden in the beginning. Choose Productive Plants Choose plants that grow well in your climate and geography. Think locally. Share and Barter If you buy a large packet of seeds and have extras, share with your friends and neighbors. Go Organic With Your supplies Organic seeds can be bought locally or by mail order. Do not use chemical pesticides, herbicides, or any other synthetic chemicals. Complement Your Plants Research traditional methods of natural gardening to grow plants that complement one another such as permaculture. Have Fun! Gardening can be an incredibly grounding family affair. Having your garden up and running, the question of feeding or fertilising comes to mind. The blog Permie Flix has a video post this week entitled: ECOSOIL SUSTAINABLE FARMING WITH COMPOST TEA. If that title doesn’t tick all the boxes then I don’t know what will. The video runs for some 30 plus minutes and is well worth your time. Compost teas are a specialised form of liquid fertiliser. The have their adherents and I too am one of them. A particularly interesting book: Ten Acres Enough set in the USA state of New Jersey and written in the 1870s gives a good account of how to make and use liquid fertilisers. I’ve included a link to a pdf copy of this book. Whilst it has financial figures from its time which are basically meaningless now, the how to information is useful. A word of caution, the author advocates for ploughing bare fields between produce crops to increase soil moisture. Apart from that, he makes good sense. Back to the post ECOSOIL SUSTAINABLE FARMING WITH COMPOST TEA. This video is produced with a smallholder, farmer in mind but the principles and techniques can be down scaled to the garden or you could join with fellow gardeners to create larger volumes to use amongst yourselves. I suspect a community garden would also be a good place to centrally produce these teas in bulk. They feed the humus creation process at a good rate of knots. Nudging Nature without pushing her to breaking point. So look after your soil, grow food in it and feed that soil with liquid fertilisers for a blooming good garden! And that brings us to the end of this week’s podcast. If you’ve liked what you heard, please tell everyone you know any way you can! I’d also really appreciate a review on iTunes. This may or may not help others to find us but it gives this podcaster an enormous thrill! Thanks in advance!

This episode is about taking a natural approach to pest control and avoiding sprays and pesticides...even organic ones. You see, many people think that switching to organic gardening methods just means changing from synthetic sprays to more natural/organic ones. But the truth is that if you have a more balanced ecosystem in your garden, you don't need sprays AT ALL.  And that is what we cover in this podcast.  Host Theresa Loe brings on author and organic gardening expert, Jessica Walliser to share how we as organic gardeners can shift our mindset when it comes to bugs. You learn: About the ecosystem of your own backyard and how to balance it, Making the shift from sprays to no-sprays, Do plants have immune systems, Can a plant send out a distress call, How to change your mindset about bugs, How to attract the "good bugs", What is a beetle bump and why in the world would we want one in our backyard and much more.

Organic gardener, radio and television presenter Bob Flowerdew recalls how difficult it was to get anything to grow at the start of the year. He told Ken Crowther about his poor carrot and parsnip crops and his wonderful cabbages.

With a 1/4 acre section Dee has turned her garden into a food forest - saving heaps of visits to the supermarket, yet becoming super healthy in the process. She has 30 odd fruit trees in that area with raised veggie garden plots plus chickens and growing and harvesting 4 times a year the only things she buys are onions and mushrooms, because onions take to long to grow. Visitors are totally blown away by the diversity of plants when visiting Dee’s garden. Yet, she also allows weeds like horehound to grow to make cough medicine including red sage as it may even be the first traditional Chinese remedy to gain approval by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA). However, the biggest challenge for home gardeners is that for 9 out of 10, it is the soil that is the problem, having no humous and lacking in minerals, and prospective gardeners think that they can just buy fertiliser and pour it on however that's is not like it at all. We have to build it up, with seaweed, horse, cow and sheep manure, compost and involve yourself in a dedicated process for a wholesome soil web. This lead her to writing a book on how to achieve this and that is how Gardening for Planet Earth was written, being totally different from other books because it was based on natures cycles that make life on earth possible.

Henry Lau is 17 years old and in Grade 12 at Windemere Secondary School in Vancouver, British Columbia. He belongs to the Windermere Organic Garden, a student-led initiative that provides food for the school cafeteria while focusing on the importance of organic practices and educating students about food and agriculture. The garden has a 16×20 foot greenhouse, 13 garden beds, an aquaponics system, and an industrial-sized composter. When senior students started the project 5 years ago, Henry knew nothing about gardening, but the plants starting to pop up in his teacher’s office caught his eye. He found that agriculture was an art, and watching something as small as a seed turn into a meal was an amazing experience that gave him a better appreciation of food. He credits his experience with the garden to a great deal of personal growth and admires that it can be an open and peaceful space for everyone at the school. Henry feels fortunate to live in a community dedicated to food security and the growing green movement, and when he graduates, he hopes to continue studies in food and nutrition while working in the local community garden and tree orchard.
