71-Year-Old Regenerative Gardener is the FUTURE of Agriculture (Many Hands Organic Farm)
Вставка
- Опубліковано 25 сер 2024
- Julie's farm is nothing new. We hear of these terms: regenerative, organic, no till; but the reality is that these methods have been around for a very long time. Using these methods, Julie has been able to operate the longest continuous CSA in the country, starting in 1992. While farming is Julie's chosen hobby, her heart and soul desire to feed her community and not just with food. She loves to bring people together, share a meal, and help each other.

I hope I am like her in 20yrs. She's an inspiration.
My thoughts exactly!! ❤️🙌
Wow, She Is Amazing, a Power of nature, a Survivor and an example for everyone. what a wonderful interview, thanks you guys
She really is!! I’m glad you enjoyed my visit with her!! Thank you!
John Kempf Advancing Eco Agriculture. Amazing products and podcast. And how great to see such a lovely lady, Julie, show us how it's done! Go Julie!
Yes!! She is great!!
Wonderful interview. She is definitely a wealth of knowledge and an absolute delight. Great job!
Thank you so much!! Yes! Julie is amazing!
For a small back yard garden you can soak woodchips in a 55 gallon barrel of compost tea for a month. This well inoculate the chips and they will get saturated with the tea and release it when laying on top of your garden bed.
Oh that’s a great idea!!
That's not how it works, Most beneficial microbes are aerobic, meaning like us they will die with a lack of oxygen. Compost Tea will breed pathogenic microbes if left un aerated for that long as well. If you soak Chips that long you are Loading them with Anaerobic loving bacteria(the bad guys). eventually if the chips drain, microbes from garden bed will Reinoculated the chips but soaking for a month is not helping speed anything along.
Never thought of that!I think I will try it.Thanks
Julie is a beautiful person with a beautiful smile and beautiful outlook. Congratulations on all your accomplishments. Delighted to learn you mentioned John Kempf and you’re using AEA products. But most of all I loved those dirty knees! Shows me this a hard working woman with excellent values who’s not afraid to get dirty! Bravo!!!
Oh yes!! I felt terrible as I pulled up the driveway and saw she was on all fours out in the garden with other workers pulling weeds 😅 and as soon as I was finished up she hugged me goodbye and went back to work! Absolutely loved meeting her! ❤️
Another great interview and a precious gardener.
Thank you so much!! I loved meeting Julie!!
Great interview. We used to allow someone to cut hay on our field, however, neither they nor we ever put nutrients on the field, and now the soil is poor. Lesson learned.
Oh yes. But it can be built back up!
I’ve often thought about a community getting together to produce what they can without spending too much time with growing different crops. Especially if they have busy lives/careers. Like one person grows potatoes one year then leeks the next then carrots the next. Another grows garlic then corn then potatoes the next year. Another grows spring brassicas then garlic. Rotating throughout the community. Rotating nets and row covers too. Or rotate a milk cow and calf through a community of 1 + acres of lawn/pasture. Others supplying grass clippings or autumn leaves to make compost for whoever needs the mulch that year.
That would be so great!! I’m sure community’s like this exist somewhere. We have found general sharing throughout some communities. For example, in our farm tour with True Grit in North Carolina, we talked about this and how they give away extra produce to neighbors and the same happens to them.
Should always be about family, community and tribes. Use your blessings to pay it forward. We are only visiting here for a little while, and when we leave, our hands are as empty as they were when we first started.
So true!! ❤️❤️
A wonderful confidence, not strife. And she did and does have the difficulty of how abd all the figuring out.
My mom and aunt would have loved to visit from Connecticut.
Yes! ❤️
Thank you so much for telling it like it is 💯❣️🙏🇺🇸
Absolutely!! ❤️
I’ve watched a lot of your videos and have really enjoyed them Unfortunately I have a hard time hearing some of the interviews. I don’t mean this as a criticism but as constructive feedback. If you don’t know there is a problem you can’t fix it😅
Hi!! I’m glad you’re enjoying them! Thank you so much for telling me that! How are you watching? Are you using headphones or speakers??
CSA?
A CSA is an acronym for “Community Supported Agriculture”. The way it typically works is a customer pays a price up front to a farmer in exchange for a “box” or a “bag” of food, usually whatever vegetables or fruit or sometimes meat that is in season at that moment, and is typically delivered weekly. Many farms put their own spin on it for frequency or produce type. It’s a way that the customer can help the farmer with spring expenses and then receive the benefits of that investment throughout the season.
The solar Carter pushed was garbage. There's a reason why Reagan ended the program.
