We had Machu Picchu almost to ourselves. Not because we planned it—Peru was in the middle of a political meltdown. Military checkpoints, curfews, and ancient ruins with zero crowds. 72 hours of chaos, condors, llamas, and one very smug stone condor. The vizcacha knows what it did. Christmas Eve under curfew. Trains through the Andes. Stones that refuse to explain themselves. Full story here. 🦙⛰️

Excerpt: "A Brief History of #UrbanAgriculture
Growing food in cities isn’t entirely new! History shows humans have long found ways to cultivate sustenance within urban boundaries:
- Circa 3500 BC, #Mesopotamia: Archaeological evidence suggests early forms of #gardening occurred within city walls for food and medicinal purposes.
- Circa 2000 BC, Ancient #Persia: Development of sophisticated #qanat systems (underground #aqueducts) supported #UrbanGardens even in arid climates.
- #AncientEgypt: Records depict fruit trees and vines grown within temple complexes and affluent homes in cities like Thebes.
- Circa 1100 AD, #Aztec Civilization: The ingenious ‘#chinampas’ – artificial islands built in shallow lake beds around #Tenochtitlan – were highly productive agricultural plots effectively integrated with the urban center.
- Circa 1400s AD, #MachuPicchu: This #Inca citadel showcases remarkable terraced agriculture, adapting steep slopes for crop production within a high-altitude urban environment.
- More Recently: #VictoryGardens during World Wars I and II were widespread examples of urban food production driven by necessity."https://seedy.farm/urban-agriculture/urban-farming-ultimate-guide
