Growing Nutrient Dense Food

Who’s this course for?

• Every home gardener wanting to grow nutrient-dense food

• All of us hunting for answers to pest and disease issues

• Especially those of us who would like to understand how to make principle based decisions

Maybe, your production isn’t where it should be, and you’re ready to learn how to work with nature, rather than against it, to grow incredible vegetables. Or maybe you’re just looking for a simple guide to gardening that won’t lose you in science.

Here’s the lesson plan

Part 1 – INTRODUCTION

• You’ll learn about my story as an organic gardener and what motivated me to start this journey of growing nutrient-dense food.

Episode 2 

• You’ll learn about the life work of Weston A. Price, a key mentor of mine.
• You’ll get an understanding of the modern science of epigenetics and be empowered to reclaim your health!
• You’ll learn the importance of using open-pollinated heritage seeds in the process of growing nutrient-dense food.
• A short introduction to the work of Dr. Reams and A.F Beddoe, crucial mentors that helped me achieve success in my journey.
• Understanding the basic principles of how healthy cells grow.
• Know the difference between a Reams soil test and others… and the importance of knowing your soil before starting out.

• Learning the vital role phosphate plays in the photosynthesis process.
• Understanding the concept of “energy release” and how the process of combining and breaking apart energy is at the very essence of life on earth.
• Learning what BRIX is and why it’s crucial to our success in this journey.

Part 2 – ACTION PLAN

Step 1 – Learn To Use a Refractometer 

• Learn how to use a refractometer to get a BRIX, or nutrient density reading.
• Understand the importance of keeping records and working with trends as opposed to individual readings.

Step 2 –Understand Your Soil

• Learn about the importance of familiarizing yourself with your soil and the several ways you can do this. 

Step 3 – Soil Aeration 

• Understand the importance of  having 50% air in your garden bed soil, and how to create such conditions with a garden spade and fork.

 Step 4 – Moisture Levels

• Understand why appropriate moisture levels are critical, and learn the techniques for getting them right.

Step 5 – Raising Your Soil Carbon Levels

• Understand why high carbon levels are essential for your soil to grow nutrient-dense food, and learn strategies for fostering them in your garden

Step 6 – Mineral & Nutrient Levels

• Get an overview of all the steps we’ve been through so far.
• Learn the strategies and techniques I use to block leaks and increase mineral and nutrient levels in my vegetables.
• Learn how composting can be a major part of the process of raising mineral and nutrient levels.
• Learn about the phosphate cycle and what makes it essential for healthy ecosystems.

Step 7 – Microbe Levels

• Learn the key strategies and techniques for feeding and encouraging microbial growth.

Step 8 – Stages of Plant Growth

• Learn about the different stages of plant growth so you can take action at the optimal time to support the health of your plants.

Together, these modules will give you a blueprint for building 

1. A degree of food security, self-reliance and family health
2. Peace of mind that your family is eating organic, nutrient-dense vegetables, seeds and grains (major parts of the whole foods diet we all need).
3. A sense of reconnection and contribution, which extends to everyone involved in growing and harvesting (a major component of mental health).

CLIMATE: Our workshops are based around giving people an understanding of the principals of science and the laws of nature which can be applied in varying ways to any climate. In some case we demonstrate how to apply these rules in temperate and mediterranean climates.
