  1. "Cannot" is a strong word that I don't necessarily agree with, but it is true that "You can’t do just one thing is a premise of ecological farming, as it is a principle in an ecology of freedom, where the wholeness of the human being is restored, and where my freedom, security, and prosperity are dependent upon yours." We all need to adapt.

  5. Frantically trying to plant the ugliest soil you have ever seen with nothing but cover crops, radishes, a shovel, and duck litter .--.

    Future alley crop , currently a sandy pit ✨️

    I cant even get the shovel past an inch , 😪 are there short season beans I can put here? How do I make sure the radish make it?

  9. First melted goose sighting 🪿
    I've never seen a goose flop , but a sleeping goose is cozy goose i guess

    Introductions for my farmstead crew are coming up this week, Number 1 is our golden goose 'Aurelia', and african-chinese swan goose 'anser cygnoides'

    She loves bedtime snuggles, her BFG 'Alexander', and chatting with the flock

  10. I understand that all the cops want extra money but neighborhoods don't want beefed up forces, have we considered residential alert geese?

    Sicc a goose on'em , no one expects several dinosaurs to come screeching out of the dark and everyone has an ingrained fear of geese. I think this has potential in the solarpunk corpus

  15. "Humanity is on a collision course with Planet Earth, and so far, we have not been able to address it...

    A July, 2025 infographic, “Which Countries Produce Their Own Food?” ranked the world’s most self-sufficient countries in terms of the seven food groups. Remarkably, neither the US, Canada, US, Mexico, Great Britain, or European countries (except Spain and Greece) made the list.

  19. The thing nobody wants to hear is that all communities need to make sure that they can feed their population year round from within 50 miles or so of their town. That means municipalities need to invest in urban greenhouses & agricultural projects, and lock in contracts for delivery - or they're going to run out of food.

    That's the ugly truth. And time is running out.

  23. The future of food is urban greenhouses and small family farms that use ages old conservation & regenerative soil practices. It's not factory farms of any kind. And anyone with a yard can do some gardening. Anyone with a sunny window or porch/balcony can grow herbs & spices and many greens. We need to be proactive about food security, starting at home. A neighborhood swap is a micro farmer's market, too.

  31. "Because traditional methods of fermentation have evolved out of ancient practices, they do not require any electricity or fancy equipment. A few ingredients, some labor, and time are all that is needed. This makes them an important piece of the puzzle when envisioning a low-energy food system that centers on locality and seasonality away from the supply chains of big agribusiness."

  35. The University of Toronto Scarborough has recently made several bad decisions that are certain to have disastrous consequences for its truly excellent campus farm. The worst of these may be to have declined to renew the contract of the coordinator (full disclosure, she's my partner - she's poured her heart and soul into the project). The Environmental and Physical Science Students' Association has started a petition asking UTSC to reconsider.
