After attending the Midwest farmers gathering , something has come to mind. The people making the guidelines for the homeopathic substances are not the sames as in the agricultural section, there seems to be a drift apart from what is mentioned in Agricultural Course, the knitted working together of the farmers and the circle of scientists.
It was also shown at the gathering how some of the tests that are being performed to evaluate the right potency is done away from life conditions. the mention to Kolisko to test the potencies with germination processes is a clear indication that life is to be tested by life, but some of our scientists follow this without taking into account that the environment is also very much influencing the outcome, and they use plastic petri capsules, artificial light and air, etc, to make it easy to control variability....I am interested in knowing if some of their results can be then compared with tests being done in a more living environment.
Because of that and because it is needed that the Agricultural Section move towards the farmer ( not necessarily the other way around), I am willing to put my effort in designing experiments in the farm, tests that would be be measuring life with life, yet able to create a language between farmers themselves and also with the agricultural section.
One of my first questions is: how the regional wild chamomille compares with the german chamomille?

New Year
We are thinking about buying the cow this year, perhaps one of the cows from my friend Lisa, and also have an old horse to help us with the fields of hay. Part of our garden will be again just for us and canning, and we want to try again planting beets for the local organic cooperative; besides, beets are going to be a part of our cow and steer diet this next winter, we are going to try to stay away from comercial food by growing roots and feeding them instead of a grain diet. The beets will be sliced for their daily consumption and stored in the cellar. Our chicken flock will be nurtured and -managed somehow- to stay away from our gardens, and we will have no pigs this year. I will try to post the development of this plan, and the days of working and plantings, as well as observations on the growth and health of the land and plants. Blessings on this New Year!
