  • Before and after video of the effect of grazing a small herd of cattle (12 in total) over the course of a week. Each night they were put into a holding cell (a grassed enclosure further up the laneway) to facilitate the collection of their manure for the compost systems. #cows #cowsofinstagram #cowmanure #compost #grazingcell ##harvestwater #buildsoil #regrowforest #foodforest #growyourownfood #poisonfree #zaytunafarm #permacultureresearchinstitute #permaculturewillfeedtheworld #peaceandfreedomonearth #regenearthproject #gardenersofinstagram #permaculture #veggie #kitchengarden #farmtotable
  • Beautiful Freezer...twelve years old and a dependable matriarch of the cow clan. Part Jersey part something else, she is a no nonsense, but approachable cow who never gives any trouble...except when there is a patch of grass she really wants to eat...and then she won’t move 😏. Well...you can’t have it all...so we just love her 💚 #cows #cowsofinstagram #jerseycow #harvestwater #buildsoil #regrowforest #foodforest #growyourownfood #poisonfree #zaytunafarm #permacultureresearchinstitute #permaculturewillfeedtheworld #peaceandfreedomonearth #regenearthproject #gardenersofinstagram #permaculture #veggie #kitchengarden #farmtotable
  • Sometimes...planting seedlings can save you a lot of time. The extra efficiency will save you money in the end. It depends on how much food you need to grow yourself. For a main crop, sowing from seed and raising seedlings may be the way to go, but in a smaller kitchen garden, you can weigh up your approach. Convenience can have value. Buy organic if you can, but even if you can’t, you can grow them organically with great fertile inputs such as compost, teas and mulch. #seedlings #harvestwater #buildsoil #regrowforest #foodforest #growyourownfood #poisonfree #zaytunafarm #permacultureresearchinstitute #permaculturewillfeedtheworld #peaceandfreedomonearth #regenearthproject #gardenersofinstagram #permaculture #veggie #kitchengarden #farmtotable
  • Checking out our newly established bee colony in our FlowHive 2.0. We will be bringing you lots of cool bee information as we take this journey into our own off grid and poison free honey production...well, as much as is within our control anyway. Bees have a 7km forage range so who knows who is using pesticides within that area, particularly with the conventional mango, and macadamia orchards around. Neonicotinoid or neonics as they are known are a systemic agricultural insecticide resembling nicotine. They are implicated in bee die-offs and hive collapse, so spread the message far and wide to stop using them. Yes, that is an experimental window in my bee hood...I’m glad I was the experiment 🙄😳😏🙃. Can’t wait to try our own authentic raw honey from poison free permaculture gardens...yummo! 👊🏼😋 #bees #beesofinstagram #honey #rawhoney #integratedanimalsystems #flowhive #flowhive2 #harvestwater #buildsoil #regrowforest #foodforest #growyourownfood #poisonfree #zaytunafarm #permacultureresearchinstitute #permaculturewillfeedtheworld #peaceandfreedomonearth #regenearthproject #gardenersofinstagram #permaculture #veggie #kitchengarden #farmtotable
  • We are getting close to changing our bees over into our new Flow Hive 2.0. This is the one they will be moving from. You can see them busy working inside and filling the cells. You can see this in several of the cells on this exposed edge. We are going to have two hives here at Zaytuna and these are positioned above the swale above our kitchen garden. This keeps their flight path clear from unsuspecting visitors wandering through and freaking out when all these bees are buzzing around them 😉. They will leave you alone if you remain calm and go about your business. Bees are cool 🐝. We’ll keep you informed on how they are performing. #bees #flowhive #honey #integratedanimalsystems #harvestwater #buildsoil #regrowforest #foodforest #growyourownfood #poisonfree #zaytunafarm #permacultureresearchinstitute #permaculturewillfeedtheworld #peaceandfreedomonearth #regenearthproject #gardenersofinstagram #permaculture #veggie #kitchengarden #farmtotable
  • Learning how to make compost...the test is the result down the end, which will change the way you do it in the beginning 😉. Chop your greens up as well as you can to facilitate the breakdown process, it also makes the pile easier to turn until they come apart during decomposition. Your digestive process mirrors the making of a good compost. The better you chew your food the better the decomposition and the better the nutrient released to the lifeforms that need it. In a compost pile it is the soil creation organisms and ultimately your food growing plants. In your body it is the microbiome and from there, the cells, tissues and organs of your entire body. We are not separate from the natural processes that characterize the natural environment. The sooner we learn this the healthier and happier we will be. #compost #soil #microorganisms #microbiome #digestion #health #wellbeing #harvestwater #buildsoil #regrowforest #foodforest #growyourownfood #poisonfree #zaytunafarm #permacultureresearchinstitute #permaculturewillfeedtheworld #peaceandfreedomonearth #regenearthproject #gardenersofinstagram #permaculture #veggie #kitchengarden #farmtotable
