Floating Wetland Gardens In Pantry Ponds For Resilience, Function and Yield Stacking ~Epi-079
Floating wetlands are a "new" old technology that is well worth looking into if you are doing aquaculture at just about any scale - from small backyard tanks a few hundred gallons in size, on up to multi-acre ponds and lakes. Floating wetlands take the essential functions provided by wetlands and concentrated them into a smaller and more mobile footprint. Wetlands are the kidneys of the landscape, and floating wetlands amplify many of those beneficial functions, such as: Integrated wetland (edge) functionality into an open water body = excess nutrient removal and water clarification Increased biomass production...

Opt In To Nature To Opt Out Of The System(s) ~Epi-078
What do we mean when we say we want to "opt out" of the system? Firstly, it's the system(s) - the means of production, transport, communication, value transmission etc that we have to interface with to acquire the things we need to live in the modern world. In general, the further the distance a product or service must travel and the more technology involved means you will have less control over how to source it, how much you pay for it, when (and if) it is available etc. If it is produced or provided closer to...

Designing For LIGHT At Every Level - Patterns For Incorporating Natural Light Into The Built Environment ~Epi-077
Light is an essential human nutrient. So much of our modern built environment is built without regard to orienting and integrating natural light, and our health - physical, mental, spiritual, emotional and communal - suffers for it. The good news is that you can design your structures (or retrofit them) to bring natural light back into them and create buildings and places within them that support human thriving because they are well integrated with natural light. Join me for a dive into the patterns of human habitation design that enhance our relationship with l...

Zone 0 Pattern Language Fundamentals - Designing Your Permaculture Kitchen ~Epi-076
Join me today as we discuss designing functional kitchen spaces that people want to be in. Lots of people are inheriting kitchens designed more for magazine covers than for function - and where there is a lack of function there is a concommitant increase in friction, which means more stress and less joy. Kitchens are the Zone 1 of Zone 0 - Zone 0 referring to the space inside the home. Kitchens are the heart of human life - communion over shared food, shared work, a space for being together, conversing, and generally connecting over the daily activities t...

HINT: We have to step outside of the current imposed power structure - no permission required. My presupposition for this episode is this: Mainstream, state sponsored and enforced economic theory and practice has herded humanity as a whole onto a degenerative trajectory with respect to environmental integrity, social cohesion and individual well-being.

As Within So Without ~Epi-071
As within so without. If we want to see changes in our external world (i.e. regenerating landscapes and ecosystems), we have to first address our internal state. The older I get and the more I learn, the less I can say I know for sure. This, though, is one of those things that I've arrived at as being one of those "indivisible kernels of truth" - something solid and constant upon which I can build a foundation for regeneration. The external state of our landscapes is a direct reflection of...

Adaptive vs. Prescriptive Management For Homesteads And Lifestyle Design ~Epi-070
Adaptive Management: Observation-driven management for constantly increasing resilience and ecosystem function by employing planned, purposeful disruption. Prescriptive Management: Labeling your observations so that you can look up a prescription that fits that label. This is a much more myopic way of managing a landscape, as you're automatically confining yourself to pre-existing solutions for truly unique problems or challenges. Adaptation is Nature's way. Nature is always changing - things may rhyme but they are never exactly the same. Therefore our management needs to change with this constantly changing landscape. 3 Rules of Adapative Management Co...

Why We Use Functions-First Design To Create Holistic Ecosystems ~Epi-069
When we design holistic ecosystems, we start with mapping out desired and required functions THEN search for, select and/or design elements/systems that provide those functions in a way that aligns with the site-specific context. This is contrasted with how most people "design" systems - they see an ad or read an article and like the thing or the method/technique they see, and then say "I want thing A" or "I'm going to do technique B" on my land. And then systems start being built around these sexy, cool things that are out...

Using Duckweed To Grow More Calories Per Square Foot ~ Epi-064
Duckweed is an amazingly productive floating aquatic plant that is highly palatable to a wide variety of small and large livestock (ruminants, pigs, poultry, fish etc). Duckweed is a tremendous ally for those of us looking to create independence from centralized commodity food systems. You may not want to eat duckweed (though you can) but what you eat is very likely to benefit from having duckweed in its diet (and your wallet will thank you for it!).

For us to live as sovereign human beings this day in age, we have to consciously design our digital lives to maintain appropriate levels of privacy and security amidst the ever-rising tide of surveillance and tracking. De-Googling my phone was one process I began a year ago in order to start to take back some control over my data and my reliance upon centralized tech cloud services.

Living With Fire (Part 4): Integrating Fire Into Daily Life (Again) ~Epi-036
What if we chose to view nature’s gift of annually-replenishing fixed carbon sources (i.e. brush, forests etc) in high-fire danger areas as an opportunity to harmonize with the annual carbon cycle instead of as a nuisance to be combated? Could we improve home safety in the urban-wildland edge and take steps towards living within our annual solar energy budget, while saving money and improving habitat and ecology? We absolutely can. Join me for a journey into what could be if we chose to integrate fire into daily life again. In today's show we co...

The Consequences Of Ignoring Reality ~Epi-032

Right now, a multitude of the consequences of this multi-generational ignorance are coming home to roost. Our financial system and the debt-backed fiat currency at its center is crumbling and headed for a crack-up reset.

Homesteading As A Tool For Creating Freedom Outside The Scope, Reach And Will Of The State ~Epi-030
Today's show is about homesteading being one of the best tools we have as sovereign individuals for creating freedom for ourselves and our families outside the Scope, Reach and Will of the state. The State, which I'll refer to as the Matrix here, has 3 aspects to it's control structure: Scope: “laws on the books” This is practically limitless. There have been approximately ~90,000 laws and regulations passed since 1995 at Congressional level alone. However, these claims of control are only impactful if the Reach and Will are there to back it up. Reach: “boots on the ground” Is enforcem...

Water Storage Elements for Broadacre Water Patterning ~Epi-024
Join me this week as we look at the basic types of water storage elements used in designing a functional broadacre water system. Nearly all broadacre water systems include some form of water storage, either as groundwater (aquifer storage), retained soil moisture (accessible by living plant roots), or bulk water (ponds, lakes, tanks, cisterns). Water storage elements function to: cover peaks in demand (production from the water source cannot meet peak demand) smooth out variations in supply (seasonal changes in availability and ease of obtaining water) provide water security in case of supply interruption or disaster...

Water Drainage Elements For Broadacre Water Systems Design ~Epi-022
Any time water encounters anything but a perfectly level surface, it will move. This movement is called drainage. Water will always move at right angle to contour in response to gravity on a non-level surface – i.e it will move straight down slope. Water will continue to move straight down slope until its course is somehow altered by something in its path. In this way water movement is predictable at the macro scale. This is drainage. Anytime water is being drained (moving) from one area to another, you have an opportunity to design those patterns of water mo...

Air Pruning 101 - How To Grow Better Trees Than You Can Buy And Save Money Doing It ~Epi-010
Today's show is all about the science and application of air pruning to grow hundreds or thousands of trees with incredibly healthy root structures in a small area. Air pruning is what happens when a tap root or growing root tip gets exposed to air - it essentially dehydrates and goes dormant. This creates a hormonal stimulus that back-propagates up the root towards the stem-root junction of the tree at least 4 inches, and all along that length of root it induces lateral branching. Air pruning is a way to grow non-circling, non-girdling, high-density root systems that increase...
