One in six UK species threatened with extinction
Let's teach forest gardening practices in folks gardens, stopping use of herbicides, insecticides & other poisons/chemicals
We need wildlife ponds, planting for pollinators & predators with nitrogen fixing & nutrient mining species to support plants & trees. Then we're supporting the soil food web, the foundation for all life on the land

@permaculturemagazine #Permaculture Magazine, UK. I just found out my UK colleagues joined Mastodon about the same time I did. They're not very active here, so give them a follow to encourage further engagement. (Hi Maddy, or whomever opened this account.)
FYI, y'all, their website is https://www.permaculture.co.uk/
Love this article on how urban Indians are finding purpose in permaculture farming. I too want to live in a food forest!
(Bonus points if it also comes with a bear that hibernates in the compost every winter.)
@michael @plants Another good source for info on these kinds of systems. Our #permaculture friend and colleague, Jerome Osentowski at Colorado Rocky Mountain Permaculture Institute, uses these kinds of greenhouses at 7000 ft. in Basalt CO and also offers design consultation. https://crmpi.org/
Pyracantha (firethorn) berries in my garden. They're not edible for humans, but delicious for many wild birds.
In the winter months, they add bright colours to the garden.

This is your seasonal reminder that all acorns are edible. Some need processing, others do not.
In October, I will do a thread on Southern Live Oak, Quercus virginiana. These don’t need processing but do need to be steamed in their shells to remove the nut. Last year, house moths ate most of mine so they need to be well-sealed and frozen after shelling.

Aronia berries in my organic 'food forest' garden. They're almost ripe now.
The plants are still young and aren't bearing many berries yet, but I can expect a bountiful harvest in future years.

Update on rosebud tree after being felled by tropical storm Ophelia: The arborist says that the root ball is too far out and the taproot looks a bit torn. He also said that it is already near the end of its lifespan judging by its size. I checked online and apparently they only live 20-30 years.
Really disappointing. I used the flowers for food.

Can mushrooms save the world?
“Mycorrhizal fungi represent a blind spot in carbon modeling, conservation, & restoration — the numbers we’ve uncovered are jaw-dropping, & when thinking about solutions for climate we should be thinking about what we can harness that exists already
To maximize important benefits of fungi in handling climate change, we can stop clear cutting forests, & transition fully to regenerative agriculture methods including #Fukuoka style, #agroforestry, #agroecology, #permaculture approaches, and #syntropic ag.
Incorporating #fungi into our climate strategies has numerous side benefits including biodiversity, modifying temperatures & water flows, & many more. Beneficial fungi are an essential and healthy part of farming approaches & it helps our crops be more resilient to drought, flood, disease and pests. Adding fungi to trees when planting in a harsh environment enables a higher survival rate.

This little frog (a tree frog, I believe) hopped onto my hand and didn't want to leave. 😍
Eventually, I set it down in one of my flower beds.
My garden is a chemical-free zone, and harmless creatures like this sweet little guy are safe and welcome.

Bunchosia argentea, peanut butter fruit
This plant gets a lot of hype bc of its dense nutrition, novel flavor and continuous fruiting during warm seasons. But before you consider getting one, most flowers don’t produce fruit and there is scant flesh.
Keep above 45F, fruits from seed in 3 years. Tastes like sweet peanut butter+berry. Will fruit/grow in a large pot.

today's tiny ecosystem is a towering azolla forest that lives in a bucket of water.
azolla is an aquatic fern. on the #farm, it can be used as green mulch & as supplemental animal feed.
it can take over a pond, so i keep dedicated azolla buckets where it can form a 3D mat that can even climb the sides of the bucket!
it can multiply very quickly from even a few pieces. it seems to prefer shade.


Tropical storm Ophelia knocked down our native redbud tree, Cercis canadensis. Really disappointing. 😔 I called a arborist to see if it can be reset.
It also looks like there is a large root that is rotten. Is that terminate damage? I poked around and didn’t see any.

In my garden: a honey bee visits a tagetes (french marigold) flower.
I don’t use pesticides in my garden, so bees can visit and enjoy my flowers safely.

Jasmine flowers in my garden.

One of the things I learned in my #Permaculture certification is that if you have a car you have a generator and a heater (but be very careful how you vent the exhaust, poisonous you know.)
In fact, when we were up on the land last we used the car as an air-conditioned internet cafe: a 12v inverter in the cigarette lighter socket to run the satellite internet uplink and a laptop!

How to spot a Permie
(written by me without LLM assistance)
If wanting to know how a permie looks,
you must study the #permaculture books.
There's a well-known example there:
mended knees, hugging trees,
dirty nails, beards a-wagging,
seeds in pockets, woollen jumper,
smudge on cheek, and front-yard jungle
But, what about the #preserving type,
with canning jars arranged by height
in one direction, and in the other
jars grouped by food-type, flavour, or colour?
#Brewers and #fermenters are in the mix too,
with vinegar, yeasts, hops, and more,
building up a strong gut flora,
they know what scoby stands for!
The social permaculturist
makes gardens of a different gist:
instead of growing forests tall,
they grow connections 'tween us all.
With myth and lore and love and song
they gift us strength to carry on
lacking their help we'd find ourselves
a fractured rabble, without direction
The mender is another breed,
whether bikes, washing machines, or jeans,
with screwdriver, plier, fabric, and glue
they give tired goods a life anew.
Converting waste back into use,
recovering resources we'd otherwise lose.
They might not get down in the soil,
but they make the world better for all
A permie is, it seems to me,
a state of mind, not a generality.
There is no badge with which to mark
the ardent permaculture heart
The permie systems that yield fruit
don't care if you wear a suit
don't care if your hair is combed, parted,
teased, plaited, or flower-garlanded
Seeking Permaculture, mapless,
the path meanders, in mystery shrouded.
With many a fork, blind alley, and trap,
awaiting the unwary or distracted.
We need all the skills, above, and more,
to arrive at Permanent Culture's door,
and can't know, in advance, which skill
will tip the scales, for good or ill.

Wild #arugula aka wild rocket is a perennial that comes back year after year. It is much more spicy that regular annual arugula. It is very prolific in spring and fall, but looks pretty dead in the hot dry summer. Flea beetles attacks it during the summer. But it survives. It needs a lot of good afternoon shade in the summer just like some biennial brassicas. #permaculture #naturalfarming #homestead

#Lovage seeds were used in many ancient Roman cuisines. People now only use celery seeds. But lovage seeds have more intense flavor. One mature lovage plant can easily give you a couple of months or even a year of good #spice in your kitchen. The entire lovage plant is edible, including its leaves, stems, roots, flowers, and seeds. #homestead #permaculture

Now its the time in Germany to go for your free apples
find some trees nobody cares about and best, bring a picker
my own trees did not do well, whereas the last 2 years have been massive
it is possible I have maxed out the tree planting capability of our yard at this point, but now we have a range of fruit/berry options that ripen at different times, herbs, vegetables, nuts for protein and olives and avocado for fats plus medicinals (witch hazel, chaste tree, etc.) which is not bad for urban neighborhood agriculture. It'll be interesting when things really start to mature and produce! #gardening #permaculture

Celtis occidentalis 1/🧵
Ecologically important native tree, produces berries that when steamed and ground taste like raisins+figs+dates+nut. The fruit is scant and all the nutrition is in the seed.
Not pest resistant. Everything eats it but it persists. The trees I collect from don’t seem susceptible to witches broom, none seen on any trees. And there are many. They are mast year type of tree.
Anyone want seeds?

@bethsawin I'm fond of the word 'benestrophe', which echoes the aims of #permaculture.
This reminds me of two excellent old pieces by the #permaculture expertToby Hemenway (author of Gaia's Garden and Permaculture Cities) nearly 2 decades ago about what a post oil future means for cities vs rural areas

to my #gardening and #permaculture peepz around here. Do you use any software or digital resources for your gardening endeavours, and if so, which ones and why?
This is meant pretty broadly, if you sell seeds and use a google sheets to manage your business, I want to hear about it.
“I believe that in the long run, permaculture can feed more people than our current agricultural system. The concept reduces crop failures and promotes diversity. So even if one crop fails, there are plenty of other plants that provide yields. Furthermore, the integration of fruit and nut trees implies that we do not only use the surface of a field to produce food, but we grow food on different levels. As a result, the overall yields per acre are higher.”

Still hoping to touch base with someone that has knowledge or experience with small #septic systems and leach fields.
The immediate question is depth of the trenches. Our nonprofit has community members coming today and tomorrow to dig by hand while soil still moist from Hilary.
I’m leaning towards 18-24” & 40’ of leach pipe. Bad idea? https://www.infiltratorwater.com/blog/five-benefits-of-installing-shallow-onsite-wastewater-treatment-systems/
the garden is doing good, there is always something to eat but my veggies are in constant struggle for survival
the slugs took out my second round of salad, the kale leaves were full of yellow and white eggs
also there are white flies when i water the kale and the white butterfly responsible for the other eggs is also just too nice to watch :)
my favorite kale, brussel sprouts is not really affected, so fuck it
Healthy self-seeded herbs from last year's plantings that I left to go to seed.
The idea was that if that patch was hard to maintain and grew weeds, it might as well grow a wider variety of plants that support insects.
It worked! I'm surprised, we've had a very frosty winter and where they grow is quite exposed.
Now all I need is recipes for using up all that fresh dill and coriander. Or I can just leave them there to seed again. #herbs #permaculture

friends, do not wonder why there always seem to be people willing to work at these jobs that are doing the actual global biocide. there is no mystery: the jobs pay extremely well!
here's one: if you don't mind moving to nebraska (a major agricultural state) and buying and selling pesticide (for a company that's apparently so ashamed they won't even reveal their name in the job listing), you can make $120,000-$150,000! in rural nebraska, you will live like royalty at that salary.
https://www.indeed.com/viewjob?jk=61191575ed4df799
and this isn't even "that evil" of a job. it's not being a lawyer for a gas company or being the one actually chopping down the rainforest for cattle. it's just a "normal evil" job - and it pays very well!
