I filmed this video a few weeks ago when the pine pollen was falling in the food forest. Powerful stuff! I love it!! I love holy basil even more…it’s my favorite plant to graze on. Come check out the garden and I’ll show you my method for planting holy basil..and some other ideas for growing healthy plants.

If everyone knew how much fun this actually is…and how good you feel while doing it…these food forests would start…. blanketing the land!!! SO much abundance..for EVERYONE!!
In these videos, you will learn how to establish your own food forest, while increasing soil fertility.
I’ve watched each one of these DVD’s about a dozen times now…and will probably watch them a dozen times more. So much info to glean and put into action.
This is the kind of info, that can feed and house us, as a people, and at the same time…help heal the planet.
Here’s a few videos from a couple of days ago…and some pictures from a few weeks before.
The main focus right now, has been spreading TONS of compost and mulching every bed with straw. Everyone is snuggled in for winter. I’ve also been planting a bunch of starts, like cold hardy leafy greens….and a BUNCH of garlic. It’s going to be a great winter!!
The terraced beds, growing mixed veggies and herbs. Peppers, garlic, onion, basil, celery….BIG MIX
