I'm in Vienna waiting to board to cross the Atlantic on my way back from Poland after a week of visiting and talking to farmers.  Yesterday's seminar from 9-4 helped bring clarity to the themes that kept rising throughout the week.  I finally put my finger on it this morning…

This is my last day in Poland; today I'll be talking to about 40 farmers in a brand new walk-in cooler made out of hemp blocks and powered by solar panels…

I'm nearing the end of my week in Poland doing farm seminars and trying to keep all the interesting elements of Polish farming in my head to share…

I'm in Poland, and yesterday did a 90 minute presentation with translator--I talked a bit then she talked, then I talked and she talked, etc.--and then was on a panel with the country's top glyphosate and Genetically Modified Organism (GMO) researcher…

I'm spending the night on Mt. Gerizim at Hayovel headquarters in Israel.  The comments to these blog posts have been enjoyable except for…

I'm still in Israel and finally found my farmer.  I did another day-long seminar today and a fellow came up to me to explain he's been reading my stuff for 10 years and a couple of years ago finally bit the bullet, got a piece of land, bought some sheep, and started in…
