How to Become More Self-Sufficient & Grow Your Own Food
from Colman Power · host Colman Power
How do you become more self-sufficient and start growing your own food? That's what I'm getting into on this week's solo episode. I'm talking through five simple vegetables that you can grow at home — rocket, perpetual spinach, onions, mizuna and kale. Then we're getting into herbs like basil, rosemary and thyme, what's in season now, growing tomatoes and apples, fruit trees, containers, balconies and how you can start producing more of your own food even if you don't have a huge garden. I'm also talking about no-dig growing and how you can use cardboard, manure or seaweed and let the worms do the work for you. Bish bash bosh! If you want chemical-free and organic foods right outside your back door, there are simple ways to get started. I'll also touch on garlic, allicin, soil, mycelium, planting fruit trees and why growing your own food is about much more than just putting something in the ground. It's about getting more fruits, vegetables and greens onto your plate and becoming a little bit more self-sufficient along the way. And if you're interested in coming along to one of my Grow Your Own courses, send me a DM with the word GROW and I'll send you the next available one. Stay tuned, stay classy and keep it organic.
