Empowering Self-Reliance and Sustainable Living & Microbiomes
We are harvesting the peppers…lotsa peppers! We have too many peppers! So, we create lasting value with Green Powder. Green Bell Pepper Powder is also known as (Capsicum annuum) and of the Bell pepper varieties. They are mainly cultivated for the fruits but now there are many more uses for …
I am begining to understand that the desception of the matrix in ways deeper than imagined and it is digusting. Species banking is becoming big business…and it is putting a “worth” on nature. The deception forms as many are participating thinking they are “protecting” nature. It appears good…and it is …
Is there an alternative to lime when my PH is acidic? This is the most misguided topic in agriculture today. Why? We have been conditioned for so long by US Agriculture and constituents to force soil chemistry into what we want it to be. We learned nutrients are only available …
We’re in trouble. Our over-reliance on fossil fuels and our taste for foods with a high carbon footprint is causing disruptive climate change. Our throwaway society has flooded the land and seas with plastic pollution. And we face a growing public health crisis triggered by the rise of disease-causing microbes that we cannot kill …

This creates what farmers and gardeners call “tilth,” which is a feeling of smooth soil granules that flow through …

The chaos we see around us every day is not arbitrary chaos. It is organized chaos. It results from the fact that almost no one wants to take responsibility for their own lives and for the larger life of the planet and the biosphere. Therefore, those whose desire is to …
Soil. It’s our greatest treasure. It can take hundreds of years and many natural processes to make even a centimetre of soil. The mechanical and chemical weathering of rock makes up around half of any soil’s composition, with around 5% supplied by organic material, and the rest made up by …
