Continuing my seasonal updates on the progress of my vineyard experiment with staple crops planted between rows of grapes in my regenerative vineyard. In this video I talk about the impact of heavy and consistent rains on the grapes, and on the intercropping I’ve done between the rows of grapes. Imagine growing not only grapes, but squash, melons, and staple crops like dry beans in one space. #vineyard #organicgrapes #selfsufficiency

Last season a major goal of mine was to plant more staple crops for food. In past years, I’ve intercropped vegetables in my vineyard, but this time I decided to try dry beans, since they are a great staple, they’re easy to grow in large amounts, and they can be low growing, which is important to maintaining good air flow in the vineyard. Some of my upcoming videos are going to be showing you how this experiment went in the vineyard.

My goal has always been to grow as much of my food as possible and make as much of my food from scratch using simple ingredients.

In this video, I give an overview of what portion of my food I’m able to produce myself and what I have to buy from the wider economy. I can’t say I know exactly what percentage of my food I grow, but it’s a lot, and I try to increase the percentage with every new season. #FoodSelfSufficiency #LocalFood #SustainableLiving #SelfSufficiency

Ingredients have been shipped across the country or the world, possibly more than once, before being assembled into a highly processed form that has questionable health benefits. More likely, the food the large brands are feeding them is detrimental to their health. Continue reading
