Agriculture
Welcome
This series is a place where stories, ideas, and experiments from the land come together to spark something bigger: community. There’s something special about working with your hands in the soil, watching things grow, nurturing livestock from birth to butcher, and figuring out what really works in your specific patch of land. That’s what these agriculture blogs are all about: real experience, real experiments, and the kind of knowledge that comes from paying close attention to plants, animals, soil, and weather.
What you’ll find here is honest writing, lessons learned the hard way, and the occasional reminder that nature doesn’t care much for human timelines. Whether you’re homesteading, farming full-time, or just curious about how to live closer to the land, these posts are meant to offer something useful: and maybe even spark a few ideas for your own operation.
I write about what I’m doing, what I’m testing, and what I’d do differently next time. From Korean Natural Farming to rotational grazing, seed saving to soil health: if it’s happening in the dirt, we’re probably talking about it.
There’s no one-size-fits-all answer in agriculture, either. What works for one piece of land may not work for another. But the principle stays the same: if we want strong, resilient food systems, we’ve got to build them ourselves, from the ground up.
Whether you’re here to learn, share, or just see what’s possible, you’re welcome.
So pour a cup of coffee or tea, pull up a chair, and come see what’s growing.
