@Jim Flach I can also add a second garden area, as needed. And possible expand the width of what’s there. More on the north side.

@Jim Flach The northern side of the garden, 14 x40 is perrenial herbs, thyme, sage, self heal, chamomile (reseeds itself), Perilla (reseeds itself), Garlic- Fall planted, and Egyptian or walkig onion- perenial, as ell as Chrysanthemum - for tea, Black Medic, Plantain and dendelion all volunteer and ar used medicinally and for living mulch. I had planted radishes, broccali rabe, and carrots there, though that is the area with more rocks. the squash are is at the western most edge, 2 feet on either side and 4 feet under the arch. It is hardened path in the middle of the arch, and prickly lettuce comes up nicely in there.

I have both of Mark Shepard's books on this and understand the basic ideas, but not how to incorporate them into our property. I will check out the classroom.

@Jim Flach Cabbage is super easy to make sauerkraut and can.

@Jim Flach salt water, raw

@Phillip Greenwood Yes, it is. The biggest challenge with seed oils is that it’s an omega six fatty acid. Omega six fatty acids when they are disproportionate to the omega-3 fatty acids have now become dangerously inflammatory.. Omega 62 omega three ratio should be ideally one to one no more than one to four. To find out how much omega six you can tolerate look at how many omega-3 oils you’re getting in. That’s primarily fish oil. There are some vegan omega-3’s, but they’re usually in very small amounts From algae. The average American diet is minimally 15 to one omega six to omega-3. At this level it’s not if you’ll have an autoimmune challenge it’s when. The higher that ratio is in the amigo six is the quicker those challenges will begin to appear. At 25 to one there’s definitely signs of inflammation that are palpable as well as seen on blood testing. It usually shows this achiness, stiffness and pains, also fatigue. By the time this ratio gets to 40 to one these people are suffering from severe clinical depression and I’m the verge or already having suicidal ideation. If you wanna keep using your avocado oil, don’t read the rest of this paragraph: Avocado oil that’s on the market is mostly listed as being a high heat oil meaning it can be used over 500°. Any avocado oil that’s being used over the low to mid 300° has been processed in a way that it can tolerate higher heat. It is now a highly processed oil. The oils that the body really likes are fish oil in the fish, sardines, oysters, anchovies, cold water, fish, or fish oil capsules.Xymogen and Carlson are good companies. Olive oil is excellent, and the oleic acid in there is essential for us to assimilate nutrients from our food. It’s definitely part of a healthy Mediterranean diet. Coconut oil and palm oil are both healthy stable saturated fats. They may not be ideal if you know, you have the gene configuration of APOE which increases the risk of Alzheimer.s and dementia. So with a high family risk of that, it may be better to have less fully saturated fats.

What do you love about this? Advantages, benefits?
