The day after our wonderful visit, while the waning Moon was still influencing the Elemental forces of Earth as they Stream down from the stars, it was time once again to gather up and inoculate the locally sourced Manure that is used to build up our soil health, sequester carbon and provide the am******on needed to make
Master Joe Murray drove the track loader over while Nick and Benard joined in on the fun with our 2) Farm dump trucks, to visit our friends at the and help out. They are one of the main reasons we located into Detroit 17-years ago as their “waste-manure” used to go to a landfill to provide Methane Bombs. Now it provides with the source code for = . Once the piles were all moved and put into platonic solids, (Pythagorean cones or native American Indian tee-pees, as they act as a natural furnace) it was time to inoculated all with the appropriate amounts of #502- #507
Thanks once again to our good friend Brian W. from we are able to continue on with absolute trust in the process. We like to wait 1) Moon-28 days prior to placement on all of the farm fields, raised beds and fruit trees eliminating the need for any external water-soluble fertilizers/inputs. For the making session the inoculated manure will wait all the way until 3 weeks before the Spring equinox where then it will be used to make our compost.
That’s what’s up here in the heart of the old ‘Motor’ City

What a Beautiful day in Last night the waning moon moved into the elemental emanation of Earth @ approx. 8:17 PM ESFT. Today marked the first day of fall into earth and thanks to our neighbor Ravinda Kharmai and his beautiful Butterfly Daughter, we were delighted to join the 3rd grade class at the Detroit to teach them how to make . Master Joe Murray Headed out yesterday to see our friends at the to grab some fresh organic road apples for today's class. All the kids put on protective gloves and began filling the cow horns we had brought with Horse p**p and then capped them all off with the indigenous clay-type soil we uncovered while digging our 3’ hole. The kids were singing and gathered around to each take a turn at helping Master Joe shovel the dirt back into the hole and then jumping up and dancing down to compact the insertion 3-times all while singing the most beautiful songs. We placed ½ of the horns there with them to be influenced by the stars, (stellar period, spring to fall equinox) and then Young Master Michelle Burda joined Master Joe at the homestead farm for our own insertion right next to one of our storm drains. The team agreed to shift the location of our community outreach to the local Waldorf school so we can continue to delight in such beautiful beings.
That’s what’s ^

Growing up in the Metro Detroit, places like (Farming -a-ton) and (Southfields) were truly nothing more than as-named. Farms and orchards filled the sky all surrounding Detroit to feeds it’s young and growing “Industrial Nation” agenda. Before I was born, the once farmers of these fields sold out to the ‘Automobile Agenda’ and became the subdivisions of the 1950’s & 60’s. When I was young, right around this time of year, I remember gathering up some neighborhood friends and head out hiking to McAllister St., (which still had vacant lots filled with Remnant Apple Orchards). The fruit was never “perfect”, and we had to eat around the black spots, deformities and insect holes, but the fruit was delicious especially to me. The Only perfect Apple that I have ever seen, (minus any “chemistry”) is a Only fruit or apples grown this way will produce year after year. The practice continues…….

My Ideal goal of the practice has always been to raise my 3 youngest children in a the food, the atmosphere and the “divine intelligence” found only in the food, grown this way... The eldest of 3 is completing her first full season farming apprenticeship, and has grown up in this world that we co-created.

We chose to complete our 2026 yesterday morning, (the last day our Sun was passing through the Constellation of Leo = Fire = Fruit), done in conjunction with the Moons Grace waxing assentation, also in harmony with the specific elemental forces of fire/fruit creation, found in all our Biodynamic work. 42 delicious spheres of various sizes from 225 sq ft. roughly 5 sq.ft. each. No chemistry no microplastic no w**d covering blankets needed at all!

Shortly after the New Moon event of September 11th, it quickly becomes the time to clean out all of your tomato’s exposing the remaining fruit to the Sun. The first frost will arrive here in Detroit in about 28-days, so asking your tomatoes to do anything else at this point, is a fool’s errand. By cleaning out the cores and revealing the developing spheres to the sunlight, is the only way to insure ripe fruit prior to the first frost. Oddly enough it was finally time to harvest . My Sun Raphael has been spanking the bottoms of watermelons all of his life, taught to listen for that deep baritone sound that tells you when she ready to be eaten inside-out. Sunday young Rohan was here helping as I promised his dad at the last Soccer game, I would be sending one home with his son when it became the perfect time. The first melon one was magnificent, so much so that we didn’t get any pictures. It was instantaneously devoured by all present, Ajax’s the farm dog Included! The watermelons are from a previous season Farm champion. Open air pollinated Hybrid created right here in Detroit when our honeybees cross pollinated with giving birth to the grown this season! What a delightful experience. If you would like to try one, please Message Andrea as all will be pulled next weekend!

The Jar on the left is the Honey that another noted "producer" in Detroit, packaged up and then offered to the Public. The Jar on the Right is from where unlike the rest of the Honeybees in the Region, having their food ripped off/hard work stolen, we here only ask to take 1/3rd while leaving the rest, (which is more than enough) to sustain the hives throughout the winter. Balance is key to any truly sustainable Construct. The Golden rule unto all of the Kingdoms of Nature!
