I asked Nick Ferguson of Home Grown Liberty and Rare Plant Store to join me for a chat today for a few reasons.  First as announced on yesterday’s show his new business is offering four different amazing deals with some cool fruiting perennials and some awesome trees as well.  Many of the trees are not just awesome looking but great “fodder trees” as well.  Many are not familiar with the concept of fodder trees or tree hay as it has also been called but it is a great way to feed livestock. Additionally these are only his first offerings, so … Continue reading →

Episode-2481- Half Acre Homesteading – Part Four – Plant Propagation

Okay I am calling this series “Half Acre Homesteading” because marketing. The use of two words in a 2-3 word phrase is good at grabbing attention, think “Taco Tuesdays” or anything in that vein. You don’t need a half acre to make today’s show work for you, you can do most of this on even a postage stamp lot, many do. Likewise even if you have a lot more land, then this is what we call zone one design. Creation of a 1/20th – 1/2 acre system that you spend the majority of your activity on and hence it is … Continue reading →

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 talking about.  The truth though is I am still learning about tree propagation myself.  I know a lot about tree care, tree pruning, tree planting, etc. but making new trees I am new to myself. This might actually make it worse because as I … Continue reading →

Nick Ferguson and Jack Spirko to Host 4 Hours of Plant Propagation Bonus Q&A

The Survival Podcast Posted on February 10, 2015 by Modern SurvivalFebruary 10, 2015

Nick Ferguson’s Plant Propagation Course has been a huge success for PermaEthos. The feed back has been exceptional and we are sure perhaps a few hundred back yard nurseries will spring up because of it this year.  This is yet another example of our real goals at PermaEthos, to empower as many people as possible to develop their own properties and business in consort with Permaculture ethics and design science. Nick and I talked a lot about the production of this course and what we wanted it to do.  The main goals were simple. No fluff, the real necessary information … Continue reading →
