#naturalfarming — Public Fediverse posts

Working on my first semi-weekly herbal journal! This practice should prompt me to prioritize and refine my learnings while producing informative posts. <3

People often know about #Goji berries, but not Goji leaves. Goji leaves are actually very nutritious with a lot of vitamin C and minerals. It is a slow starter especially if you have poor soil and a dry summer. It is very drought tolerant, but a dry summer will stun its growth, like here in Oregon. Goji leaves are best used for making soup with a little bit of meat, say some pork. It has an earthy taste, but can be very addictive once you are used to it. #permaculture #naturalfarming

Hidden Lotus Herbs is getting ready to move to our new #farm site and really ramp up our operations!

For some backstory,
I was the recipient of a fund from @coop to start a worker-owned #cooperative and decided to make it an herbal apothecary!

We've been operational for around six months and are now starting our regenerative agroecological farm and increasing the capacity of our free clinic.

However, the #renewableenergy systems we're building are more expensive than we budgeted for, and we could use some help getting the farm and clinic going financially.

We're really needing help from our community to make all this cool stuff happen!

If you can spare some $, please consider supporting our transition and future. If you can't, please share far and wide!

Thanks <3
