Old99Farm Market:  Food is Health Packed Symposium online Sep 6,7

There is a whole lot wrong with our available food.

Chemical fertilizers have led to abusing the soil, and consequently soils became depleted of micronutrients. Unsurprisingly, foods grown in them are now lacking those nutrients. Pesticides and herbicides harm humans, as well as bugs and weeds. Some experts say we need to take supplements now because we can’t get what we need from our foods anymore. We are practically living on overprocessed junk made of sugar, salt, wheat and seed oils.

dentifying the Problems and Solutions

But we can get on top of what is happening, learn what we need to, and we can resist. That’s why Door to Freedom and Children’s Health Defense have unpacked all of these problems, and identified possible solutions.

During a jam-packed two-day online symposium, you will learn about all facets of the attack on food, and how to resist. This is an entirely free event, with a fantastic lineup of speakers and topics. Grab a pad and pencil, because you will definitely want to take notes!

The 2024 Attack on Food and Farmers, and How to Fight Back premieres on September 6 and 7. It will remain on our channels for later viewing and sharing as well. By the end of Day 2, you will know what actions to take, both in your own backyard, and in the halls of your legislatures to create a healthier, tastier, safer and more secure food supply.

No registration needed. Just hop on the stream at DoortoFreedom, Children’s Health Defense TV, Alliance for Natural Health or Solari.

Berea Gardens:  Market today and crossroads

Hi Friends,

Our market today will be open from 4 to 6. I have tomatoes, cucumbers and sweet peppers.

Our farm is at a crossroads in terms of where we go for our fall season. I have plenty of transplants in my propagation house, but I am reluctant to set them out because of our drought situation. Most people have no concept of how much water is required to grow quality crops, so here is a little education. Our fall crops of broccoli, cauliflower, lettuce, kale, brussels sprouts, etc. require about an inch of water per week, either from rainfall or irrigation. That amounts to over 27,000 gallons of water per acre per week, about the area that we plant for fall. With the minimal rainfall we have had over the past 10 weeks, that has meant that most of the water to irrigate our summer crops has come from our well. Since we have no appreciable rain in the forecast for the foreseeable future and no surface water in our stream I am reluctant to tax my well further to keep transplants going. Another factor is that if I don’t transplant in the next few days, the plants won’t mature before it gets darker and colder resulting in a stunted harvest. We likely will not be doing fall crops this year.

I do have winter squash and potatoes for the fall, but perhaps not much else.

Please pray that our drought breaks. Statistically July is our wettest month here, followed by our driest month in October. Things at this point don’t look promising.

Blessings,
Bob and Lynnita
