    cannabis, (genus #Cannabis), genus of 1–3 species of aromatic flowering #plants cultivated for #fiber, #oilseed, #medicinal preparations, and #psychoactive products. Native to Central Asia, cannabis is now grown #worldwide in a range of forms adapted for different uses. The taxonomy of the group is contentious, with many botanists holding that the genus comprises a single species, Cannabis sativa. britannica.com/plant/cannabis-

  5. #BlackCherry

    "Common Name: Black Cherry, Wild Black Cherry, Rum Cherry
    Scientific Name: Prunus serotina
    Family: Rosaceae

    Etymology: Prunus comes from the Latin for Plum or Cherry tree, while serotina refers to late bloomer.

    Indigenous Uses

    #Indigenous communities consumed the black cherry as is, dried and crushed them for use in soup, utilized it as a base for fermented spirits and created cough syrup from the bark.

    #Medicinal Uses

    Black cherry bark can be turned into a type of natural cough syrup. Cherries also have many vitamins in them.

    Edible Parts

    The fruits of the black cherry are edible and can be prepared in several ways. The cherries can be eaten raw [NOT RECOMMENDED], turned into jam or syrup, utilized in cooking and baking, and blended into a drink. Other parts of the tree such as the leaves, bark and roots should be avoided as they contain toxic compounds.

    Gathering and Using

    Black cherries can be gathered in the fall. Wood for various usages such as tools, handles, furniture and paneling can be gathered at any point although spring and fall are the best.

    Permaculture Functions and Considerations

    Black cherries attract several #pollinators, especially native insects and insects that biologically control garden pests. Black cherries are also a wonderful source of food and lumber.

    How to Identify

    The black cherry can vary in height from 25 feet to over 100. Leaves are a shiny dark green with fine serrations and an oblong shape. They are 2-5 inches long and 1-2 inches wide. When the leaves are crushed, they give off a cherry-like scent. White blooms emerge from March-June depending on conditions and location. Dark red fruit starts in the summer and changes black in August-October.

    Wildlife Support

    Birds feast on fruits and these fruits are considered very beneficial to migratory birds in the fall. The cherries are also eaten by several small mammals and the tree is a host plant for over a dozen butterflies and moths.

    Additional Information

    Black cherry wood is utilized in scientific and professional instruments, as well as cooking."

  19. #SouthAustralia - #PointPearce #FirstNations #CultureGarden

    "#LandcareAustralia is proud to partner with #PointPearceAboriginalCorporation in establishing a First Nations community-led conservation and education project. Located in South #Australia’s Point Pearce in the #WardangIsland #IndigenousProtectedArea (IPA), the project is led by the #TraditionalOwners, the #Narungga people, and aims to support #Indigenous youth to learn about their Cultural heritage and knowledge that will lead to career and leadership pathways in #EnvironmentalConservation. 


    At the heart of this initiative is the Point Pearce First Nations Culture Garden, a space where #Elders, #FirstNationsRangers, and #IndigenousYouth come together to bridge and transfer #CulturalKnowledge. Designed as a hands-on learning environment, it will inspire young people to explore environmental conservation, deepen their appreciation for the natural world and discover career pathways that utilise Cultural knowledge. 


    The Culture Garden will feature a #medicinal and #ceremonial plant area, #NativeBushFoods, water features to attract #wildlife, #SensoryGarden, and dedicated spaces for learning and Cultural practice. With a #seedling #propagation zone, a #NativeSeed cleaning station, a fruit and nut #orchard, and interpretive walking trail. More than just a garden, it serves as a ‘cultural learning hub’—fostering pride and offering a comprehensive setting for community events, educational programs, and vocational training opportunities. With funding from #OneTreePlanted, the tree planting will also help #restore #NativeVegetation and improve habitat for threatened species including the Southern Hairy-nosed #Wombat. 


    Aligned with the South Australian Department for Education’s Aboriginal Education Strategy, the project aims to inspire engagement, Cultural pride, and environmental responsibility among First Nations students. It focuses on educational outcomes and how Cultural activities can play in enhancing social and academic competence among First Nations students."

    For the last 6 weeks or so, I've been taking a #medicinal #cannabis gummy in the evenings to alleviate chronic #pain in my knee.

    Last week, though, I travelled for work and was unable to take my prescription with me.

  29. Saps els gossos, que sempre volen el plat de l'altre? Doncs sembla que els humans fem el mateix.
    Ho fem amb les medicines, i ho fem amb els aliments.
    Ara mateix hi ha un munt de gent fent Kimchi i kombutxa i koji, i molt poca fent olives.

    I no tinc res en contra dels fermentats foranis, però aprendre coses noves, sense conservar els coneixements propis, ho trobo absurd.

    No se m'acudeix un aliment més mediterrani que les olives. I a més, com a fermentat, són meravelloses.

    A part de ser probiòtiques, les olives en sí són plenes de compostos benèfics, i a més s'adoben amb herbes medicinals, que alhora tenen molts compostos benèfics, que les olives atraparan de forma molt eficient, fent-los disponibles a la nostra digestió.
    Perquè hi ha compostos liposolubles (solubles en oli) i hidrosolubles (solubles en aigua), i les olives contenen oli i aigua i per tant els poden extraure tots

    I a més a més, són delicioses.
