In this episode I was joined by author and fellow podcaster Rob Wolf.  We discussed paleo nutrition and the misconceptions in modern nutritional science.  We also discuss his new entry into the world of Permaculture.  Interviewing Robb was like talking to an old friend and more like having a bad ass co-host than a typical guest interview.  I loved learning from him and I loved his openness to learn more about modern agricultural problems as well. Today’s episode of Friday Flashbacks was originally published on 12-9-11 and was originally Episode-800- Robb Wolf on Paleo Nutrition and Permaculture The show notes … Continue reading →

In this episode we discussed Permaculture design for the every day person’s property.  In other words not necessarily the person who is going to attend a full PDC and spend the time and money to be certified.   Ignoring the complex parts of permaculture that a specific to region types most of us will never visit let along live in.  Rather sticking to the principles and techniques that work well for the average small to mid size property.

This will be the last new show (other than an Expert Council show this Thursday) until I return from Tenessee on Monday next week from Nicole Sauce’s LFTN Workshop.  So I thought about it and one of my goals in 2025 has become to inspire more businesses to be founded and existing ones expanded in the TSPC community. So of course to do that I will leave you with an awesome motivational “you can do it” type of show, right?  Nope!  Today we will hit you hard with relaity and at the same time attempt to not destroy your “irrational … Continue reading →

Today we discuss my personal 12 rules of business. Like many of my rules they are not exactly mine, rather those I learned from others and experience over the years. So many people seem to want to have a business but they either approach it without discipline or simply don’t know what to do so they never start. Many of my rules seem to oppose the experts, for example I do say follow your passion and many “experts” say that is a bad idea.  They say seek a business that serves a market that has high demand, forget your passion.  … Continue reading →

In this episode we discussed wicking beds for home food production in a way that improves ease of growing and virtually eliminates any conventional irrigation requirements.  In reality wicking beds are the easy button especially in hot dry climates.  While scale can be a limiting factor the production, reliability and reduced maintenance make them a fantastic choice for homestead production.
