Initial intro rant is 12 minutes and rambles on about the Prednisone worsening ADD, getting smacked in the face with Poison Ivy while filming magic mushrooms in Mexico etc. A conversation with Dr. Lucas Majure from Florida Natural History Museum about evolution in the Cactus Family, Hummingbird-Pollinated Tree Prickly Pears, why one genus of Cactus wears a damn Fez (just like the shriners), the subtle nuances of Dogtooth Karst, Weird-Ass plants from Cuba that only grow on a certain soil type, and much more.
Today's lesson deals with the thorny types of verbal abuse that a person suffers with no prior triggers or misdeeds. Like the sweet prickly pear, these too are sweet fruit concealed in thorns. They are able to atone for a person's misdeeds and can uplift him or her to a higher spiritual level. They also strengthen character.
As we continually strive to move our winery, Centralas, in the direction of becoming a more ecologically thoughtful and environmentally beneficial winery, I became convinced that prickly pears need to be an important part of what we do and what we promote as Los Angeles based winery. Prickly pears are native to Los Angeles and other parts of the South West, and have been tended and used here for thousands of years. The entire cactus is useful and edible. I foraged and picked them this year from natural areas all around LA, including some within walking distance of my home in South LA. Prickly pears thrive in marginal land without irrigation or chemical inputs of any kind. These are the kinds of fruits that we can build an environmentally positive and ecologically integrated local beverage culture on. A culture that isn't imported, but that represents the unique local flavor of this land. As you can tell, I couldn't be more excited about the potential of incorporating prickly pears into wine. Austin Glasscock, our guest for this episode, shares my enthusiasm. He's making wine from prickly pears, and other wild fruit, in Sonora, Texas with his brand new winery called Wild Texas Wines. Austin is a marine who got into winemaking as a hobby after his military service, and found not only a love of fermentation, but a great excuse to get out into the natural world. I was delighted to hear Austin talk about how he gathers fruit by hand, without equipment, with some serious risk, so as to move through the landscape as an animal would and leave a light footprint. I was inspired by his vision of staying small – wanting only to make a living and maintain a lifestyle that allows him to interact with nature daily. The most amazing part is how much the wines Austin makes embodies his love of nature in every aspect of his process. The contrast to how we tend to make wines here in California is stark, and makes me thrilled to be able to share this unassuming and understated winemaker's perspective. We get into some pretty detailed technical specifics about making wine from prickly pears, which I hope will be part of a growing body of shared knowledge that others can learn from and add too. I hope that Austin and I and a few others are just the early adopters of what will become a much more popular kind of thinking about making wine ecologically from locally available wild fruit here in the South West where the summers are long, the sun is hot, and the water is more precious than gold. In truth we aren't early adopters at all. We're the rediscoverers and revivers of a very old tradition. https://www.wildtexaswines.com/ Sponsor: https://www.centralaswine.com/

When Dr. Jon Rebman decided to take on the diversity of cholla cacti, little did he know what he was getting into. Luckily, this work led him down a road stoked by a deep passion for understanding the biodiversity of not only cacti, but the entire flora of southern California and the Baja Peninsula. Dr. Rebman believes in maintaining a classical botanists approach to his work and as you will hear i our conversation, this has been quite fruitful. Thanks to Dr. Rebman and his colleagues, we have a deeper understanding of the flora of this region but there is still plenty of more work to be done. Join us for a fascinating discussion of botanical discovery.

Over the years, too many of us have allowed fruit and vegetables to slip, or at least decrease, from our tables. However, they are rapidly regaining popularity as we are, more and more, actively assuming responsibility for our health. Join me on Monday, April 24th at 3:30 pm, PST, to tour benefits of the plantain, red banana, ugli fruit, and prickly pear. Feel free to leave a comment or send an email to naturallyhealthyandgreen@gmail.com.
In this lecture 2011 History Scholar Katherine Massoth discusses ways white Americans reacted to the environment, clothing, and foodstuffs of New Mexican people between 1846 and 1866. Cuisine and couture became areas where daily practices were absorbed and traded between the colonizers and the colonized and the colonizers learned from the Mexican and Native Americans, slowly changing their own ideas of appropriate standards for food and clothing. Massoth is a Presidential Fellow and a Ph.D. candidate at the University of Iowa where she received her M.A. degree in United States History in 2008. She specializes in the history of gender and race in the American West. The lecture was cosponsored by the Office of the State Historian and the Center for Southwest Research at UNM.
