Ahh that's cool, so there is another part coming. Looked into Steiner a while ago, rather half hearted, talk about unreadable. I have an excuse, not being a native speaker, but still. I think this is really interesting. Maybe a bit difficult to get the animal parts. I have an unanswered question that might still come up in the next episode, but do you need all these different preparations for 'it' to 'work' or can you just try one thing and see how that goes. Any BD people present? Thanks!
I have a bit of a theory why this works. It might be intention, quite like this japanese scientist, Masaru Emoto does with water. (ohh duh, watched it a second time. It was actually mentioned. I should not walk away from the video so much) This stuff sounds like complete crock to me but if it works, it works. No point in questioning it. Just more space to wonder why it works. Fascinating stuff, thanks!
4 hours, whoa, nice. This is my type of ''church preaching" i can stand listening to for that long. Much appreciated for sharing this
farm (v.) Look up farm at Dictionary.com
mid-15c., "to rent (land)," from Anglo-French fermer, from ferme "a rent, lease" (see farm (n.)). The agricultural sense is from 1719. Original sense is retained in to farm out.
farm (n.) Look up farm at Dictionary.com
c. 1300, "fixed payment (usually in exchange for taxes collected, etc.), fixed rent," from Old French ferme "a rent, lease" (13c.), from Medieval Latin firma "fixed payment," from Latin firmare "to fix, settle, confirm, strengthen," from firmus "strong; stable," figuratively "constant, trusty" (see firm (adj.)).– NOT A WORD OF ENTERTAINMENT !!!! MISINFORMATION!!!!!!!
These are always so good. We are building an autistic community and we want growing our food with extra to sell and share to be an immportant part of it. This channel helps so much
Can you please turn on the closed caption setting? I don't see it on here.
I just found out there are indeed local bio dynamic organisations that will sell you all the components or the actual preparations for a reasonable price (in fact i could even call the preparations packs cheap. They are more like a promotional item to promote the BD way of life because ideally you need to make them in the native soil of your own location, the components are rather expensive but not undoable) so what i'm going to do, is purchase them for 1 or 2 years first and then if i see any noticable results, make them myself because the components like deer bladders and cow horns are easy to order there as well. I've looked and read into it more now and i think it's very interesting. Not at all as much crock as i thought. There are many comprehensive online calendars online as well. Ok, i can work with that, even if i can't fully grasp it yet! I like trying new things, in fact i thrive on that. Thanks again, Jeff & Pat!
Thank you very much for your sharing your knowledge!
Jeff is a friend, and one hell of a teacher. Cheers Brother!
Dicoms, I do not know of the spelling, or what plant or seed looks like. Can someone help me out? Thankyou. I think I found it? Daikon is a type of white, winter radish . I could sit for days and learn from this man, thankyou Mr. Jeff Poppen!
Waiting for a water or solar powered tractor for 15k then i can be a farmer lol my lazy ass wants to just grow hay for horses then put there manure to compost with grass clippings and leafs and wood etc hahah then grow stuff with the manure onto soil 😀
Could you please give advice on how to adapt some of these principles to put in a Vegepod which is simply a veggie box which usually has to have high quality potting mix.? Would be much appreciated
Would like to talk to the lady that mentioned she had worked with the Steiner work. She said her name at the end that sounded like MARTY MARLOWE? Hard to hear over the sizzling.
jeff is my uncle I just visited him last week
900 acre grain farmer here…, It's nice to learn from someone not trying to sell you something , thanks.
A very good teacher, I like his style!
26:00 Why does he till for vegetables? I don't get it. Richard Perkins, Charles Dowding, Jim Kovaleski, none of these guys till for vegetables. Charles doesn't even broad fork. I don't believe Jim does either. Jeff is no doubt very knowledgeable, we are all learning new things all the time I guess, but he may want to check out what these other guys are doing and why they don't need to till for veg and he does.
One of the koolest dudes in the world. I stayed in his farm for about 2 months around 2010. Changed my life. This man is duding great work!!
