On today’s episode we discuss

• Permaculture as a methodology and design science made up of many techniques. It is also very much a way of thinking that is pretty much the opposite of commercial agriculture or even “traditional” gardening. It seeks to reduce inputs and mimic nature, as opposed to artificially controlling every aspect of agriculture. We give some thoughts on the subject.
• Modern medicine is not all bad. Western doctors are the best in the world at patching people up but they are not experts in disease prevention. Somehow we have gotten to a place where doctors treat the symptoms, but rarely address the problem. We’ll talk a little about why knowing natural medicine and growing your own “farmacy” is so important.
• We give a detailed update on our medicinal guild. We talk about element location, preparation, planting, and much more. We also discuss some of the uses of goji, calendula, chamomile, and comfrey as an example of some of the plantings in the guild.

Join our TPH Community and take a look at our VLOG that shows the early stages of putting in the medicinal guild.

Here is a great reference book for putting together guilds: Gaia’s Garden. And here are some links to the medicinal herbs talked about today: Goji Berry, Calendula, Chamomile and Comfrey.
