Today is an episode of TSP Rewind, commercial free versions of past podcast episodes.  Today’s episode was originally Episode-1527- Grafting, Root Stocks and Tree Propagation & was originally first published on Feb. 26, 2015. The notes below are the original notes from that episode. Recently I did a show with Kevin Hauser about apples and we discussed that he did all his propagation with “bench grafts” and always uses “M111 Rootstock” which basically caused a listener to say, WHAT DOES ALL THAT MEAN? Point taken!  Sometimes when you know a subject well you just assume people know what you are … Continue reading →

Today is an episode of TSP Rewind, commercial free versions of past podcast episodes.  Today’s episode was originally Episode-1304- Using Permaculture Principles to Analyze a Business & was originally first published on Feb. 18, 2014. The notes below are the original notes from that episode. Today’s show may not sound very “survivaly” but frankly one of the biggest common disasters is actually some sort of personal financial failure.  Many times this eventually is traced back to a business failing.  Your boss has his business decline and cuts your salary or lays you off.  Or your own business flounders and you … Continue reading →

Cole’s Canned Seafood Variety 3-Pack – Item of the Day

The Survival Podcast Posted on by

Every day I bring you an item on Amazon that I personally use or has been purchased by many members of the audience and I have researched enough to recommend. Today’s TSP Amazon Item of the day is Coles Canned Seafood Variety 3-Pack.  Recently I brought you the 10 Variety Pack from Matiz in the category of tinned fish.  I love that pack but it is very sardine heavy.  Let’s be honest sardines are a thing you either love or hate.  They are oily (beyond the olive oil) and have a deep “fishy” flavor. No matter how great a sardine … Continue reading →

Free Bantam Chickens at TSP-23

The Survival Podcast Posted on by

Dorothy has decreed that “ALL CHICKENS MUST GO” and hence any that do not find new homes are freezer/crockpot bound after the workshop.  They all carry the genetics of the Blue Phantom Experiment.  They vary in color some look like buffs, some more like old English and some show the blue/black colors really well but all carry the genetics. They are free, take your pick of them but you’ll need to bring something to carry them in.  I realize this will only work for those driving in but thought I would throw it out there anyway.  Of course if you … Continue reading →

During my panel session in Camden at the Self Reliance Festival, a question was asked that I was absolutely not expecting. A young woman, who was very emotional, asked, “But what if you can’t leave the city?” I listened to her intently, realizing very quickly that the reality was not that her family could not leave; rather, at this point in their lives, they simply didn’t want to. The bigger issue was her emotion; clearly, this was painful for her. They were a young couple, into gardening, had kiddos, but they were working with lower-income people, trying to make the … Continue reading →
