While I’m writing this, I’m also watching your video and I should say, you have quite a vegetable garden here and my puckers are watery! I love your eggplants! You have done quite a number on your farm and I would really love to learn how to do this! We have our own idle land in the countryside and I need to give it some time to plant different vegetables and fruits! Thanks for the inspiration! I will surely like to do this after I get a big break from my Top Stub checks business ! Thanks for sharing!
Great smallholding, Podchef! HFW would be proud! Your saddleback pigs look an awful lot like Deliah! I’m very jealous you get to live the “River Cottage” lifestyle. I’m trying my own brand of “urban” farming here in the older suburbs of Pittsburgh. I’d love to get chickens, but it will take some convincing of the folks around here. Just the idea of chickens can send some people into tantrums. I’ll be working towards changing attitudes around here! I’m still catching up on your podcasts–I’ll get there someday. Since I’m still pretty behind, I’d like to get your up-to-date opinion on bokashi and EMs. Still the bee’s knees? (Wondering why your company no longer carries the stuff.) It sounds like a pretty amazing idea to me. Especially the fact that you can compost cooked kitchen scraps, including meat. It’s still not exactly popular here in the U.S. As someone who has worked many years in the restaurant business (as a waitress) I’ve seen garbage bins fill with food waste that could have gone to build soil. Now I work as a microbiologist/immunologist, but daydream about getting back to the food business someday. Not for the feint of heart, that’s for sure!
Keep up the good work! I enjoy hearing about your farming and food adventures!
