Winter Update

Posted by Jake. 9 Comments

Here’s the Winter update..in photos and video.  So many plants to play around with!!  Getting ready for Spring..by amending soil in current beds, creating more soil for future beds and selecting, starting and planting more seeds and seedlings!!!  We’re also building swales on contour.. and putting in more nitrogen fixers.

oh..and.. I did a lady bug release last night..in the dome..go get em ladies!

 

Building my first swale in the front yard..FOOD FOREST! The rain..comes out of the gutter to the right..and hits the swale.
Instead of running straight down the hill..to the street..it fills the swale..especially the middle..then sinks in..keeping nutrients on the property and builds up a water “lens” underneath the fruit trees.
One of the many simple techniques of Permaculture. I love SWALES! SO much WATER SAVED. We will be planting fruiting/nitrogen fixing plants on top of the swale very soon..
Early in morning..7AM..still frozen

Later in the morning..10AM..venting the tunnels

 

Mixed heirloom romaine lettuces..Jericho, Paris Island, Freckles

The brassica bed, still growing..but frozen in the morning.
I love seeing the Kale’s freeze back..then warm up..greeting the sun!

 

….one hour later..unfrozen and happy!

 

Mixed greens..still coming up..spinach, arugula, lettuce, tatsoi, bok choy, kale, chard, collard

 

Garlic starting to show her aerial parts…so tasty..to even eat the leaves. It’s China Rose.
Asian Pear..this one is Shinseiki
Tunnel growing in a few beds..and building soil for future beds.
Under Porch..microclimate..winter refuge..for succulents and other plants
Red Wiggler..surfin..on the plastic hoop tunnel. Tons of them came out of the beds during the rains..to surf..it appears.
Succulents..my sweet aloe. Goji seedlings wintering over in the little pots to the left.
Inside..the Growing Dome

Have FUN..GROWING YOUR OWN FOOD!

David Hall – Cellercise

Posted by Jake. No Comments

 

Passionate person alert!!!  David Hall pioneered, and has continued to take ”rebounding” technology to whole new level!!   

HIS PHYSIQUE is from CELLERCISING ONLY.

I remember seeing little trampolines decades ago…I guess when they first came out.  They hurt..when you jumped on them.  Most out there still DO!  They didn’t make sense to my mind or body.  Well THIS.. IS not THAT!

 

The difference is in the materials and technology that David Hall has PASSIONATELY developed over time!  THE SPRINGS, the LEGS, everything..it’s WELL made!

First heard of David while watching him at David Wolfe’s Longevity Conference recently.  His demonstration BLEW my mind!!  IT made complete sense. 

Been CELLERCISING now for a few days..and I have to say..it’s ABSOLUTELY AMAZING!!  I FEEL FANTASTIC..just like the video shows…I feel different after a few minutes of light bouncing..I’m walking better..I LOVE IT! 

 The above video is only 10 minutes long.  He gave over an hour lecture and demonstration on these things and they are revolutionary..to say the least.  NO DOUBT..this will connect with some of you out there..like it did me.

Watch the video, do the research, if it resonates with you… and you decide invest in one…OUR GRATITUDE…for purchasing it through the below link..to David’s website.  (it will help us plant more trees and plants!!)

Happy Cellercising!

Amending the soil in the beds

Posted by Jake. No Comments

ALOHA…made this video a few months back..to share how I amended the SOIL in our square foot garden beds, after the summer crop.  So..it’s a little old, but still relevant.  I’ll be shooting some Winter updates soon..and show the GROWTH!!  They’re all GROWING again..now that the sun is rising higher in it’s path each day.  VERY grateful for the SUN!

The cold is fine..but no SUN…makes it hard to grow much at all!!  Glad it’s back up there!  Digging swales and planting seeds again!

SO many ways to tend your soil..this is just one of them.  Hope everyone’s having fun tending to theirs.  I’m going to keep playing around with different things like greensand, kelp, the list goes..on!  Such a fun experiment..and the plants love you…and you feel LOVE…while playing with them!

Things used to amend the SOIL: 

AZOMITE
(Great ROCK DUST that..adds trace minerals back..the worms love it!)


RED WIGGLERS
(Beautiful Bacteria!)

 

COMPOST
(make your own..throw some worms and Azomite in there..to help you work the pile..!)

 

OCEAN WATER
(diluted 2000)ppm  …adds all “known” and ”unknown” trace minerals/ormus minerals back!

 

….for more info on SOIL…creating it…amending it and tending to it…

YOU’LL LOVE…both these books!!  SO much info..the kind of books you can read over and over and over..and still catch new insights every time!!

Pairing with Fungi

Posted by Jake. 5 Comments

Holy awesome interview David Wolfe and Paul Stamets!!  Just listened to this…loved it!!  If you’re a fan of fungi and growing with it..consuming it.. or not doing any of that yet…check out this interview!! Pairing with Fungi as Paul puts it, is advantageous to us in so many ways…and has been going on for tens of thousands..if not millions of years.

Mycologist Paul Stamets…is THE ambassador of mushroom information..

Just listen to this amazing info!!  ..here’s the link to the free interview..

Nassim Haramein – Grand Unified Field Theory – Fractality

Posted by Jake. 4 Comments

  

 He’s been on the fringe of the scientific community for a while..living in a van for about 10 years doing computations…attempting to connect an intuitive knowing..but not yet understood or accepted viewpoint of REALITY.  His name is Nassim Haramein.  He’s now being accepted, both for his words, which are beautiful..and for his math, which is equally as beautiful.  Literally..beautiful to look at!  THANK YOU..NASSIM!

Most of us have heard the “New Age” or “Esoteric” saying that we’re all “ONE.”  That..creation..or “God Force”.. is found in EVERYTHING and EVERYONE!!!

I AM THAT..

“ONE LOVE!”

AHIMSA

well..we are indeed exactly that..EACH ONE OF US..conductors of the divine..DIVINTY itself!!  Each atom in each one of us a black hole to SOURCE!

It’s finally being shown mathematically so we can see visually and can open that part of our hearts to understanding.  Had to be done..the math is so beautiful..it can link worlds…and bring down divisiveness if allowed to do so. 

NASSIM HARAMEIN has presented that opportunity…put the math to the theory/intuition.  This theory/intuition isn’t new..nothing is really..it’s been spoken of by other physicists, like Buckminster Fuller, Richard Hoagland and Einstein, but never eloquently shown mathematically, which has it’s merits…..!!  HUGE IMPLICATIONS! 

Even without the math and science… we can intuit this TRUTH….as has been done for many millenia..by slowing the breath and senses and looking inward.  Look to the ancient and modern intuitive scientists for that well mapped journey…!  A.. few.. I really love are.. Yogiraj Gurunath Siddhanath(Hamsa Yogi)…and Nandhi…there are sooo many sharing right now.  The BREATH..seems to be the special switch!!  Ultimately it IS, WAS and WILL..ALWAYS BE…. in US…we’re ONE!  I LOVE IT! 

Here’s the first couple of clips in DVD series..called “Crossing the Event Horizon, Rise to the Equation“.. some clips available on YouTube, whole DVD available on Nassim’s website...here.  There’s 4 DVD’s in the series…so you know where to find the rest..very illuminating!  The interviews Regina did with Nassim on consciousmedianetwork.com, are also VERY good!


 

Sometimes… while sitting in the Growing Dome, I’ve sensed the geometric shapes, based on Buckminster Fuller’s perceptions.. create more plant growth!  You can feel it…while sitting in there.  YOU..start to grow more too!!  His early perceptions in sacred geometry..have led to growing food sacredly..living sacredly..using shapes to enhance growth…like we now see in structures like the Growing Dome…and ancient sacred sites around the world. 

What if went back to creating sacred structures and agricultural sites, based on this understanding?? 

FULL CIRCLE?? 

NO new stories..just re - membering…
