Vlog: Persimmon from wild seed and the trouble with 🐓 #bobblehead #chickens 🐓

The persimmon seeds are not ready to sprout yet. I placed them in the cool (above freezing) to release the sprouting enzyme in this native seed. I will treat with mycorrhiza and bring back into the warm.

This episode is about Chickens. Putting them away out of the gardens. They have removed so many perennial plants and disrupted the garlic. I’m so slow to put these @Bobblehead Homestead chickens away. Much like Jeff they like to scrap and enjoy nature to much to be contained.

Is it too late for cuttings? Let’s give it a go with some broken blackberry stems from the Arapaho thornless from stark.

Final scene is a natural backdrop with nature sounds. The birds are working the bamboo and small brush piles for nesting materials and forgotten food.

Staring seed indoors in January comes with challenges. Having the space, equipment, and know how to start seeds is an incorporated skill and is developed through experience. Our third year starting herbs, flowers, perennial, for the garden.

Gardening by the almanac. Does it work? How do you do it? We all have questions about this topic related to gardening.

We use natural gardening techniques to build a diverse natural ecosystem in the gardens. Slowly replacing common species, with perennial food producing species.

Have questions? Drop me a comment during the video, or send me an email.

What to see how permaculture and food forest work? This is a very young food forest. Foundation tree plantings are still happening. This year we will focus on establishing our new fruit trees, and removing the unproductive or undesirable nuisance plants. Working with nature and its natural cycles.

Zone 7A/8B we are in a boundary zone micro climate on the banks of a seasonal creek. Expanding the food production, natural ecosystems that will blend food production, medicinals, and aesthetic plantings. To support bees, butterflies, and all the beautiful life on this garden.
