There are definite connections that link us Americans all together. Your rains of yesterday are my rains today. This weekend we are heading to NH where these rains have turned to snow and sleet. As Jill shops at your Amish neighbors Yoders grocery store my wife had shopped for locally grown fruits and vegetables this AM. Just thinking as of late, it’s hard to find any good spreading from DC. I hope that citizen connections will be able to sweep this plague out from DC so we all may get back to Peace, Freedom and happiness. Hope you all have a nice day tomorrow. J.Goodrich

I love your post Robert, Rachel and I homestead on 25 acres of hilltop in Whangarei, Northland New Zealand, and it's a gardeners paradise here due to our latitude of 35.7' S, and lack of winter frosts. We have repurposed all sorts of things others have thrown out as junk, and are gradually expanding our food forest by planting mostly fruit and nut trees, where once there was lawn. The trend since the industrial revolution has, and continues to be, the migration of people that lived on the land, into the cities, and the majority of families in the developed world now are many generations removed from the profound connection with nature that comes with homesteading, demanding instead materialism and tech, conveniences and gadgets, to soothe the anxiety that stems from the vulnerability of their chosen dependent lifestyle. I guess that if you and I were to go to the average city mall, we would be hard pressed to see anything of much use to us, but go to a farm or garden shop, and there will be all manner of usefull and interesting things to browse. I am a humble cabinetmaker who has taken a slightly early retirement, not a world famous scientist and freedom fighter like yourself and Jill, I don't know how you both do it. But I am sure that the remedy to the travel and stresses, is your return to your land, and animals, as I know myself how connecting and rewarding that is for the soul. I am also sure that movements like localisation, and the work of leading lights like Vandana Shiva, are bringing more people and awareness into the vision of a simpler, and more wholesome lifestyle, in tune with our natural environment, a sort of deindustrialisation, and that seems to me to be the way forward for humanity to solve so many of the current problems. All respect to you two for maintaining the vital work that you do, on all of our behalfs.

Just lovely! And certainly a skillset needed in uncertain times. My oldest grandson learned how to do no dig gardening while he was in Norway. He created a wonderful garden here on our property.

Happy Thanksgiving to you all! ❤️

Speaking of garlic, there is a homeopathic remedy called Allium cepa (red onion) used for the effects of hay fever, colds, flu, etc. Mother nature provides a remedy for almost everything!

The rocking horse in its field of daffodils is beyond charming!

Wow, no comments, yet, about the garlic. C’mon people, get yer garlic on!

Thanks to a wonderfully warm(er) autumn, my planted-almost-too-late garlic crop has had plenty of time to grow those necessary for winter roots. Last year it was quite the inverse: planted in time yet an early winter snow and freeze decimated my efforts - such is life on the left slope of the Rockies in Montana. Lost half that crop, and a couple varieties completely. I am looking to what appears in spring when I remove their winter blanket of mulch. Lord willing, there will be 400 plus nascent globes spread across a dozen varieties; and some elephant garlic to boot.

As for the bone chilling cold: having once lived to your east, I remember a few winters that could’a rivaled a bit of what’s typical here. One winter where I slid in to the creek at base of the sledding hill and had to walk home in my armor of frozen cloths and a second where the temp dived to well below zero.

Oh yeah, fun times.

Blessings Everyone.

From Jill's speech, which you posted a couple days ago: "A global administrative state, whose core power resides with the UN, will become a spiderweb of rules, regulations, agreements and treaties within which individuals and nations will be trapped like flies." That remark about a "spiderweb" reminded me of Native American prophecies, and I've spent the past couple of days reading the Hopi prophecies again. They're well worth the time, for anyone who's interested. What they describe has been happening in our lifetimes.

The Crystalinks website has pages for other Native American prophecies as well. I like the website, as the owner has drawn together a lot of information on a variety of topics, all in one place. Check out the index. A lot of good reading for winter evenings.

Farming, growing your own food, is absolutely the right thing to do, for anybody who is able. It's a lot of work, but at least you know what you're eating... Or more importantly, what you're NOT eating!

Our raised bed tomatoes made it through the heat (110) and somehow I was able to cover them up in an early freeze. Will need a ladder to reach some of the fruit...

I love all these posts and they make me think - maybe I can do this (raised a city girl still learning planting stuff!) And we happen to have a couple stock tanks like yours. Guess what I'm doing this long weekend too? 🙂

One question on the plastic stock tank - do you drill more holes in the bottom or does the drain hole at the bottom/side suffice?

When I was looking at the pictures of the planting bale feeder, it reminded me of a story of Dylan. He has been collecting pieces of iron for ever. The tour bus would stop at junkyards and he would pile in large and small pieces. He now makes (welds) gates and other pieces of art. Thanks for the inspiration, Thanksgiving is really about giving thanks, every day of the year.

Hi Dr Ma-Lion/ess! What a beautiful garden! A reflection of your soul! Jill, do you by chance know which species of the wormwood plant is anti-cancerous?

Dr Marik gave a good talk on fasting and decreased processed carbs. Hubby and I want to do a 36 hour fast with wormwood tea and other herbal teas. Happy Thanksgiving and bless you both and your good works!
