Q&A: How to Begin Large-Scale, Government-Backed Water Catchment Systems in Areas That Suffer from Serious, Life-Threatening Droughts? Firstly, it's important to recognise that systems often don’t get done due to middlemen interfering, changes are usually only gradually taken up, i.e. no sweeping changes and the biggest initiator is often a local person to 'champion the cause'. Aid workers need to be able to get back up and keep going when it doesn’t work and they likely need experience and auth

The peace and tranquility of a captured body of water. This is a barrage or valley dam, across a gully, providing access by means of the dam wall and this fantastic body of water. You can irrigate your own food garden with it, raise aquatic plants or animals in it, swim and bathe in it, and if you do it right, with the right biological controls and diversity...you can even drink from it. Or you can just admire its beauty and the sounds of Nature that surround it. Bodies of water are said to rele

In January, Geoff released a video about controlling weeds in his summer perennial maincrop garden beds at Zaytuna Farm. You can see the progress in this latest video update, where the cover crop Lablab (Lablab purpureus) has suppressed the weeds. Lablab's vigorous growth and dense foliage help smother out competing weeds while improving the soil with its leguminous nitrogen-fixing abilities. Lablab is a bi-annual plant that often perennializes, so it reseeds but is controlled by frost. To watch
