#1. The journey begins….again.
Tepid beginnings. Tomatoes, potatoes, and a polytunnel. The discovery of the joys of fermentation. A whine about the state of affairs in food education.
#10. An Air of Autumn and the Last of the Nettle Seeds
The recent rains have brought out the slugs to gorge on my seedlings, but there are signs of mycelium...😬
#9. Comfrey - Beneficial or Deadly?
Traditional medicinal plants share a long history with humans, but just how effective and safe are they really?
#8. Mushroom Spawn and a Runaway Trolley.
The old woman survived. But my seedlings may not. Oh, and some fermented mushrooms.
#7. An Unsown Reaping
Enjoying nature's bounties with a nettle seed pesto, blackberry focaccia, and an apple chutney (while I'm waiting for something to grow on my plot).
#6. The Teeming Treasure Beneath Our Feet
The magic of soil. The holistic approach of regenerative farming - a paradigm shift in global agriculture. No-dig gardening and a plot update.
#5. The Stark Reality of Agribusiness
Eating for Tomorrow. The Gruesome Truth about Fish Farms and Macro Farming.
#4. Have We Lost the Plot? Junk Food Nation and a History of Fermentation.
Pickles or Pringles? Some Depressing Statistics. And a Kimchi Recipe.
