The Good FARMacy Fiji

10/11/2023

Excited to share that our vanilla is blooming for the first time & we began hand pollinating them yesterday. After much You Tube tutorials, we acquired 4mts of vines for $20 during the Covid-19 lockdown period to experiment vanilla cultivation & grow enough vines for a proper vanilla grove on our farm (this was pretty much an act of faith - we hadn't yet acquired land at that time). Being self taught, we are so looking forward to the outcomes, hoping to see some vanilla beans soon🤞& of course the learnings. Can't emphasize enough how valuable the learnings from this experiment has been. 🌱

Wonderful to see the mindset shift towards the adoption of oral history to validate science. A brilliant article from a research on Ulu i Nabukelevu, Kadavu - where oral history passed down from over 2500 years ago helped to make sense of events that happened then. Safe to say our ancestors were scientists in their own rights. 🇫🇯🙌

Many ‘myths’ are authentic memories of human pasts, told by people who passed down precise accounts of their history.
