Soil Conference, June 14, 2018, Chimacum Grange - Report and list of participants

Photo of farm soilThanks to all the people who attended the June 14 Soil Conference in Chimacum. Great people excited about soil! Most of them are, or have been, farmers. Michael and Ashley put together a delicious lunch and eating and chatting lasted till 12:30. We brainstormed a list of topics to consider. Biochar got the most air time and most topics were only briefly discussed.  Some people had to leave early.

Morning Birdsong, May 29, 2018

A chorus of birdsong woke me up at dawn today, as it often does.  Such enthusiasm and beauty in their songs as they greet the new day and the sun! It struck me that they were praising the sun and thanking it. The scientific materialists say it is just a biological urge to mark their territory.  I say it is the sound of a sentient being. The sound of joyfulness for the new day. 

Video: Agroforestry Concepts in the Kauai Food Forest

Hi. I'm Michael Pilarski and I was touring around the Kaua`i and Hawai`i islands in April and May, 2018, looking at agroforestry systems.  In this video, I'm going to show you what agroforestry systems look like; what characterizes them. I'm thrilled that I get to do it with my good friend Paul Massey who is the manager and steward of the splendid Kaua`i Food Forest.
