10-28-21. What does the season really mean? Does the calendar really tell me the true season? The only season is what the soil is telling us.

Good evening,

Happy to be back with Eric recording this podcast.  It is that time of the year where so many think that the growing season is over.  But, for the ones who live by what soils is telling us, this time of the year is more important than any other time to give back to the soil what we have taken out.  Listen in as Eric and I break the dirt down and help translate the soil language so we all can live a healthier and happier life.  We first have to recognize the all of the all the opportunities we have to so it resourceful, efficient and effective.


Please contact us with feedback.  We are hoping to create this podcast with more community influence.

How do we ever think we can take care of another place, when we can not take care of home. We all need to do better where we live. We must know the soil we stand on.

What is the soil telling you? The translation of soil with weather and what the fruit is telling me. 7-19-21

What is the soil telling you? The translation of soil with weather and what the fruit is telling me. 7-19-21

Checking in with the weather, in the middle of July.  No matter where you grow your food, let the soil do the work to produce you wholesome food.    Applications to the soil should only come when the soil is asking for it.  Not the plant.  Remember, the soil is the life of the plant, everything above the soil is just reproductive.  Reproduction only happens when the soil is healthily and balance.

July 3,2021 talking about Water. Can we depend on the State of California to deliver our water, so we can grow food?

Erik, Greg Greywall ( who has a large collection of documents from years of water policy created and implemented here in our county as well as the rest of the State of California.  Question?  How do we move forward with more water policy, when we are not paying attention to what rules already have been placed on us?  How do we compete in a global market, when water is being controlled, promised and then never delivered?  

Tune in and listen.  Follow us Nature's Neighbor -Growing From our Roots show on all the social media outlets and let us know your thoughts.
