permaculture

[Cory Brennan <cory8570@yahoo.com>]

Baking soda and salt. It cut down on bacteria, strengthens gums. Works good! 
I sometimes put myrrh on it or some other essential oil

I really enjoy working on that one. It reflects my deep longterm
interest in biointensive raised bed agriculture and hand tools for
gardeners. This is a great project to add new and interesting pieces of
information about soil quality and hand working garden beds. I have old
archives I keep sorting through for new data. My new interest is
nutrient dense food produced in soil of high quality, high CEC, high OM,
well mineralized, or remineralized, with rock dusts such as azomite,
aragonite, hi cal lime, dolomitic lime, greensand, rock phosphate and or
colloidal phosphate and also large quantities of quarry rock powder, all
of which relieve soil compaction, promote growth of beneficial
microrganisms, the soil foodweb and crop plants which through such a
regimen gain exceptional flavor, keeping qualities, nutritional value,
appearance, size and pest resistance on all fronts.

You must have heard of Alan Chadwick somewhere along the line. There is
now a new project happening here in NC called The Allen Chadwick Archive
Project. This should be something that will interest you.
See more about this below.
The masters, as I see it are: Chadwick, Fukuoka, Jeavons, Todd,
Toensmeier, Hemenway, Mollison, Aquatias, King and many other authors of
years past. I should create a bibliography based on the contents of my
library. I do have a few agriculture and permaculture bibliographies
online with long lists of recommended reading. Some of these are in the
list at this page: http://www.ibiblio.org/ecolandtech/documents/

I hope to produce handmade garden tools in my shop for sale through my
company Avant Geared (www.avantgeared.com). I have some designs on the
drawing board that are unique and very useful, lifetime tools made from
new and recycled materials.

Jerome, have you ever heard of a seeding rake? This is indispensable in
the garden for seedbed preparation. Sneeboer makes them in Holland but I
do not think there are US importers any more. There is an excellent one
made in Austria that I recommend, priced reasonable, mail order from a
US company; see my garden tool sourcelist for source and ordering info.
http://www.ibiblio.org/london/documents/gardening-hand-tools.faq

EARTH TOOLS, Inc.
http://earthtoolsbcs.com
G30 - DeWit Seed Bed Rake
53565 - SHW �Root� Hoe

Hida Tool & Hardware Inc
And the Japanese farmer hoe, heavy duty, from Hida Tool.
http://www.hidatool.com/
A totally unique tool:
Ridge-making hoe
Kusakichi Brand #553 Ridge Hoe
Eye hoe (farmer hoe)
Kusakichi Brand #524 Farmer Hoe

I also use a variety of Austrian scythes which I bought from Peter Vido
in New Brunswick, Canada. It seems I use these as often as any other
tool, eye hoe, rake, shovel, spade and fork.

Now if I just had a waterjet machine I could make these myself from the
one ton of recycled woodcutting high speed steel circular saw blades I
have in storage. Cut out the various blanks with different tooth/tine
configurations, weld on a tang, attach to a long push broom handle and
voila, ready to go to work.

Ah, just what I needed to hear. I already have a few big packets of seed
ready to plant and I will order more Monday. Multiplying onions are
another favorite of mine. I hope to try bunching onions, red boiling
onions and scallions this year. No garden is complete without onions.

Subject:        From Craig Alan Siska, Landscape Architect. RE: The ALAN
CHADWICK ARCHIVE PROJECT
Date:   Sun, 29 Jul 2012 15:12:00 -0400
From:   Craig Siska <thealanchadwickarchive@gmail.com>

Dear friends, apprentices and those interested in the work, vision &
legacy of Alan Chadwick,

Greetings. I am Craig Siska; I apprenticed with Alan in VA in 1978-79,
and am now working very closely with Stephen Crimi and others, here in
the Asheville, NC area, to */finally/* - 32 years after his passing -
create the Alan Chadwick Archive.

Our immediate goal is to contact as many people as possible, to gather
any and all materials regarding Alan and his work that might still be
extant and available:

*/1) Audio tapes of Alan's public talks and lectures to apprentices./*
*/2) Photographs of Alan and the gardens he brought to fruition./*
*/3) Apprentices' notes of lectures and demonstrations in the garden./*
*/4) Letters to and from Alan./*
*/5) Drawings or plans of gardens that either Alan or others made./*
*/6) Seed lists/plant lists/ or planting design plans of Alan's garden
work./*
*/7) Garden logs/ Forcing House Logs/ Garden Journals./*
*/8) Pocket notes taken by apprentices when Alan did garden demonstrations/*
*/9) Any other material germane to Alan, his work, vision and legacy./*

We will create a public website, where anyone can log in, and experience
Alan's legacy. This will take much time, effort, money and TLC.

Please know that we have and are making individual agreements with
certain people, regarding the materials they contribute to the archive.
We seek written permission with each person; and their materials placed
before the public in the AC Archive will be done so according to their
own individual wishes.  Certain materials, as so specified, will NOT be
"downloadable" nor "copy-able".

We have two extensive videos (all the original & cutting room floor
footage) of Alan being interviewed, and written permission to use them.
One was shot in Covelo in 1975, and the other was shot in VA in 1979.

We are working with a professional video/sound engineer here in
Asheville, NC, right now, both remastering the video material, and
digitizing all the audio tapes, and cleaning up the sound quality, as
best that can be done. ( With regard to the audio tapes, we are ALWAYS
looking for new tapes, even tapes of the same talks we have....reason:
others [maybe YOU] just might have a tape in better shape with better
sound quality, than the ones we already have).

As well, we, and a few others, are plugging away, */Transcribing,
Proofreading, Edting and Annotating/* the approx. 250 audio tapes of
Alan's lectures to apprentices and his more public talks. This will be
the lion's share of the work that needs to be done.

The plan is to have both an MP3 file and a transcript of the talks
available on line, so one can listen to the talk, and read along. Alan
is best HEARD, both on video and audio.
-----

Please get in touch with me, if this project interests you further, or
if you, or someone you know well, has material to contribute to the AC
Archive.

We have a lot of work ahead of us, and we look very much forward to
hearing from you in the near future. The world needs to hear and see
what Alan was pointing to, now more than ever.

Thank you for your considerations.

Warm regards,
Craig

The Alan Chadwick Archive

�We are the living links in a life force that moves and plays around
and through us, binding the deepest soils with the farthest stars.�

Alan Chadwick (1909-1980) - E.M. Schumacher (Small is Beautiful)
called Englishman Alan Chadwick "the greatest horticulturist of the
20th century." Chadwick was a student of Rudolf Steiner, an early
advocate of organics, and founder of French Intensive Biodynamic
System. He railed against the tragic policies of corporate
agribusiness, while cultivating gardens of sublime beauty and
production in the 60's and 70's throughout the United States. Nearly
everyone practicing biodynamics today has been kissed by the Chadwick
transmission.

The Alan Chadwick Biodynamic Archive is housed at Philosophy Farm in
the mountains of North Carolina. In the summer of 2008 we were able to
publish a book of transcriptions of Alan�s talks, Performance in the
Garden, the first in what we hope will be a number of collections
drawn from the 250 or so tapes we have of his lectures.

Come back from time to time as we will be putting up transcriptions of
Alan�s talks, in no particular order. We remain open to any assistance
in editing. The tapes are of varying quality and we do the best we
can. The lectures presented on this site are done with a minimum of
editing, so there may be of of sifting to go through to get to the
heart of things.

We hope to gather photos and testimonials from his students and
publish them here, especially as we go through the centennial of his
birth. Contact us at ramsita@madison.main.nc.us .

�Horticulture is the greatest of all crafts, the art of the creation
of God�the garden leads into the whole of the vision of Nature.�

�The garden is all secrets, the whole miracle of the garden is made up
of secrets, and I�ve been granted the chance to expose a few others to
this incredible �thing� which, itself, is the teacher. It is, you see
� though many people find the idea amusing � the garden that makes the
gardener.�
