Im literally with you on both your reason to leave tech and to go do farming. As a tip, permaculture is more sustainable than monoculture. Make sure to pick a good, warm environment to make your life easier. Dont name your chickens... makes it harder to kill them for harvest.
- mtalantikite 6y agoHaha thanks, as long as I’m not alone on the sentiment. And I appreciate the advice on permaculture — I just read Masanobu Fukuoka and would like to do more research on these methods. Also, I’m vegetarian and am not so sure I could even kill those unnamed chickens!
- NoOneNew 6y agoAt the very least, dont underestimate the benefit of all nature chicken fertilizer (poo and compost processing). They make great passive tillers and pest control too. I fell in love with the idea of farming when I visited (often) my ex's parents farm. Saw a bunch of the permaculture/homesteading stuff in action long before it became "cool".
- mtalantikite 6y agoAbsolutely, one of the features of Masanobu Fukuoka‘s farming method basically let the chickens wander the land and to provide fertilizer. I’d be down to keep them, just not eat them!
