Maintenance of Inga Edulis Reforestation: Video Log #2

I have been trying to write an article about this for nearly two weeks, when finally I stopped and asked myself, ‘Self, what is the hold up here?’

When I analyzed the situation, I realized that I was trying to write two or maybe even three articles all in one. So I have broken them apart in chunks, and today I have the first one for you! Welcome to our second video log!

Trees taller than me

Since this is not the 'my plants diary' post about Ice Cream beans, I will save a lot of the information about progress, propagation, uses and history for that post. I touch on some of these topics in the video below.

As we continue to work around the farm, we get to see a lot of our fellow arboreal friends having birthdays, two, three, some of the oldest are over four years old now!

Here I will introduce you to one such tree:

I also show my thoughts and techniques for harvesting the green manure, using the machete and leaving pioneering woody shubs. Each of these topics could be touched on more, and may be later, but since I am still inexperienced they are all bundled together in this one video.

We strongly believe in what is called 'Stacking Functions', which is one of the Permaculture Principles. In fact, I have found it very useful in my life as well on on the homestead. I feel like steemit blogging is an application of stacking functions, because while we are documenting our progress we are also earning cryptocurrency and making new friends and networking.

Any thoughts, comments, tips or other suggestions you may have about video production, agroforestry, reforestation, permaculture, botany or ecology please do feel open to be frank with me in the comments!

Love and Light to All!
