Hi Willow, yes I found it very interesting, I know Zerzan and I think Jensen think the problems started when we began to domesticate animals and start farming, I don't necessarily agree with that view but the old video of the tractor and seagulls following compared to today it brings home how damaging conventional farming is. By the way I don't like Zerzan, he sounds too bloody miserable all the time!

If you saw my Cuba blog, you may have noticed how the Cubans used mesh screens during the special period to protect plants from the midday heat. However, in a natural environment, such plants would probably flourish close to a tree, the leaves of which will have the same effect, but be much more natural.

It's lucky you have several acres of land. That's priceless in my view.

You'll find video instructions on how to make a greenhouse from PVC tube in one of my earlier blogs, but I suspect that's where you got the idea from!
