Farming Sustainably in the Age of Peak Oil

At Clear Sky Meditation Center's farm, we are starting small. Most of us are city folk with lofty ideals and little farm experience. We've read books about permaculture, biodynamics and organic farming. We have been on inspiring courses. But how do we put this into practice? How do we integrate this work into our Dharma Practice?

When it comes to actually doing it, the challenges are daunting. Farmers in Canada are struggling. Land prices are soaring. Peak Oil is near. How do we make a living AND do it well AND wake up? This is our challenge. Please join us on this journey of exploration and discovery :)

Clear Sky Farm Website



My clothes, hair, breath and blood smells like garlic. We've been harvesting garlic scapes for the past 3 weeks, and making some delicious products out of them - Indian Garlic Chutney and Pickled Garlic Scapes!!!

We have also finally got our Clear Sky Farm website up and running : www.clearskyfarm.ca!

We are using a hosting company called Fatcow. Websites don't need to be difficult anymore. I used a program they offered called "weebly drag and drop site builder". though simple and limiting at times, it does enough to get a basic website up quick, without needing to use HTML computer language. I still don't know what all that is.

So check out our website!! Order your garlic now!!! www.clearskyfarm.ca

My blog postings will now largely be at www.clearskyfarm.ca/wow


Thanks!
