Chickens – chicken coops

• Should be planning season for pretty much everyone now but there are a few places really North that can’t.
• Tips on how to start even in their own backyards to start regenerative gardening – WHAT TO AVOID!
• Avoid chemical use
• I use tin or cardboard or black plastic to kill the grass, that is a great way to start.
• Microbes associated w/ the trees and woods etc – everything works together better from a LOCAL source.
• So cheese for example the different cheeses have different names b/c the bacteria that is local changes the flavor of the cheese.
• North Dakota – Dirt to Soil One Family’s Journey into Regenerative Agriculture book by Gabe Brown
• AUDIO/VIDEO: One Hundred Thousand Beating Hearts – short film
• WHARTON FARMERS MARKET
• You don’t need to water it all the time like that – the water is there, you can’t see it but the water is already there b/c of the organic matter.
• 5 Processes
• 1. Reduce the surface (less tilling)
• 2. Cover the ground
• 3. Continuous living root
