No-Dig Gardening

Two legends talking about no dig gardening. Neither of them do soil tests and take the philosophy that all of the nutrients are already in the ground, they just need to be unlocked by encouraging soil microbiologyhttps://t.co/qBVsSPyi46

Finding this website very informative. Might try something like onions around the north/west/east side of the potatoes for pest resistance, peas on the south side for shade and nitrogen fixing, and radishes and greens in between rows for ground cover https://t.co/VqrGStZ4ph

Jack Donovan:
interview

There are a lot of ways I could define that group. In an ideological sense, I want to live around people who have the same ideas about how the world should be, because that means we are all working in some harmony and chugging along in the same general direction, rather than working against one another. People “like myself” would also be people who share a similar frame of reference, so that we can speak in a cultural shorthand, understand each other, and trust each other to some degree. I grew up in a white American middle class family with solid working class roots. I am not from millionaires or French aristocrats, and I don’t know ‘bout no ghetto. My pap worked on the railroad and my dad plays horseshoes. I’ve never worked on a train and I suck at horseshoes, but I have a connection with folks like that. Those are my people.

Believing in the same order as a foundation for [civic] friendship. Not just agreeinment upon common goods, but upon the means to those goods.
