Episodes
213 - We Are Thankful
23m · Published
We are grateful for food, for health, for our family and friends, for our church, and for our life on the farm. We also take time to be thankful for the suburban life we left behind, because it prepared us for our lives as farmers
212 - Morse Code - Truly Resilient Communication
18m · Published
We talk a lot about what we can do to become more resilient, and the most resilient form of radio communication by far is Morse Code – the hams call it CW. After putting it off for two years, I am now learning the code, painfully slowly
211 - Goodbye Summer!
18m · Published
The summer growing season is over. Time for freezing nights. Amanda pulled her copious pepper harvest. We're wrapping up the warm season and battening down for the cold ahead. We also discuss closing down the orchard for the winter
210 - This Garden Never Closes
20m · Published
Here in the South we can grow food year round with no greenhouse, no hoop house or high tunnel, and no artificial heat. For us, keeping the garden growing year round is not only key to food resilience, it’s the way we keep our soil fertile
209 - Things That Really Scare Us
19m · Published
On this holiday that's all about scary things, we talk about what frightens two subsistence farmers. Climate change, for one, and the widespread willful ignorance that might allow a demagogue to take power, and a breakdown of law and order
208 - What We've Learned About Using a Clothesline
20m · Published
We've learned you'll save a LOT of money. Build it as close as possible, you can dry fewer loads in the winter, be flexible and watch for "good drying days," and store your pins indoors. Splurge on a washer that wrings clothes really dry
207 - Meanwhile, Back Here On the Farm . . .
21m · Published
The fall harvest of sweet potatoes, muscadines, and persimmons, apples, and pears; Second Chance tomatoes, beans, peas, edamame, and squash. Brassica plantings and using our fire pit for the foyer group. Adrian helps with pecan clearing
206 - Russ Hopfenberg – Growing More Food Won’t Solve Hunger Problem
28m · Published
We’re proud to raise food and give it away, and the more the better. But Russ Hopfenberg says we can't raise enough food to solve the world hunger problem. His argument is perhaps one of the most difficult we’ve confronted on Longleaf Breeze
205 - Hayes Jackson on Gardening in Dry Places
20m · Published
The summer of 2013 was wet here in Alabama, but so far it's plenty dry this fall, and climate change probably means hotter and drier weather generally. Hayes Jackson of ACES knows how to choose plants that grow just fine with little or no extra water
204 - Erik Curren of Transition Voice on Sustainable Farming "Mania"
23m · Published
We talk about what it’s like to leave the city behind and the sense of isolation we sometimes feel in the country. Erik shares the frustration he sometimes feels that he’s stuck in the city and missing all the fun farmers are having
