This past Wednesday, the Natural Farming work duty team was treated to a homemade Korean supper! What a treat! Now I know what real Korean food tastes like.
Before the supper we were granted the pleasure of hearing Dr. Park speak. He is one out of two people in North America who is certified in Natural Farming. Dr. Park spoke to us about the importance of Indigenous Microorganisms in the soil for good farming. There is one organic farmer on our team and even he says that Natural Farming is revolutionary! It's funny how the old way of farming (before chemicals and machines) is new again. I will post more about Natural Farming soon. There is just so much good stuff to share!

ReplyDeleteWe have aquaponics in Alberta, may not be quite yet certified Natural but it's pretty cool, recycling the system.

There is an aquaponics here at the Kona YWAM base too! The Natural Farm and Aquaponics are located across from each other and are having a little bit of a rivalry. It's a little amusing seeing different farm philosophies competing against each other.
