Farming ( Archived) (86)

I will be getting an Allotment pretty soon,
I am really looking forward to Planting and growing some stuff.
Very hard work I believe but worth it

it would be great , what would u like to grow ?/

I would like to grow what I'm not allowed to grow.

So I suppose just some veg will do.
Carrots turnips potatoes and maybe some herbs too.
that would be enough to start. would also love to own a goat and some chickens .

Hi Innocent

I am happy u love farming , Do not wory and it is not your fault , sometimes we get unexpected surprises in every business even in the life .

you can do it , simple and easy , just some techniques and struggle

I've got an acre with fruits and veggies growing on it.

I have neighbors who come harvest my taro leaves, and cook "lau lau" for me.

I provide the leaves.

They wrap fish, pork, sweet potatoes and taro roots in them, steam them for 3 hours, and bring me the finished product.

Last week I pulled up my sweet potatoes, and tripled my taro patch.



They get all the Chinese bananas I grow too.

His wife makes da best "pateles."

Pateles are like tamales, made with green bananas, instead of corn meal.

I really enjoy growing food that my neighbors want to cook, and share with me.



I've got some sugar cane sprouting, and ready to plant. I love fresh sugar cane juice!



I've been preparing the soil to put in another breadfruit tree (as in,
The Mutiny on The Bounty).

If all you eat is one breadfruit a day, you'll be feeling strong and full of energy, like a steam engine burning coal.



Taro and breadfruit are some of the most nutritious foods you can grow.

If they'll grow in your yard, you should try them.

very good post and thank you for sharing .

I am glade u have an acre of land , do you want to make a big money with it ?

Being a farmer I have a good idea for you , plant the fast growing timber tress on the birders of your land , there should be around 700-800 tress , feed them well along with your crop , in few years your trees will produce a healthy amount of money for you .

There are some brilliant fast growing species ,you can choose couple of them according your weather / climate .
