As a worldwide network of 600 partners in 80 countries on every arable continent, Regeneration International will multiply the number of certified farmers and acreage by using financial and agronomic incentives to encourage and motivate producers to adopt the best organic, regenerative, and agroecological practices. Our network building is designed to be scalable. We expect it to multiply, especially in the Global South, as farmers and land managers learn the benefits of adopting agroecological, regenerative, and organic best management practices, verifying them, and then getting paid for them. The first pilot projects have started and will become catalysts for change in their communities.
I have a question – I live in Nova Scotia, growing zone 6a. Behind my home are walking trails that go through a forest – currently home to different types of pine, fir, maples, juniper berries, rose bushes, etc.
I was thinking of going a bit off the beaten path and sowing some seeds, but I don’t want to mess up the local ecosystem and whatever I plan needs to be both perennial and capable of surviving our very cold winters. I don’t own the land, it belongs to the government as far as o know, but I think having a wild food source is going to be very important in the coming years and I want to begin making preparations now in addition to my garden.
Is this strategy a viable one? Is there anything I should consider that I may be overlooking? What factors should I take into account when selecting what to sow?
Thanks in advance – I’m very new to all of this and I’m not sure what to start after doing some Basic reading here and on Wikipedia.
Highly recommend if you are interested in suburban rainwater collection and use. This video is informative and inspiring- the creator lives in drought central Texas, realized the rainwater washing down his street was discarded like waste, and did something about it. So cool!!
I live in WI, Zone 5B. I own a corner lot next to my property. It’s all brush and super-tall 60-foot trees.
Trying to figure out what to do with this property, especially since I’m getting charged property taxes on it.
What edible food can grow in nearly full-shade? I know hostas make for delicious edible food and can grow in more shade, so I can propagate them. Maybe ramps are an option too? Or should I cut some trees, drag them in there, and propagate some mushrooms?
