      <image:title>Blog - Let's Build Seedling Flats!</image:title>
      <image:caption>We found a great source of untreated cedar lumber in Creston, so we picked up a car load.  We need two sizes of flats, 3" depth and 6" depth.  This amount of lumber should be enough for all of our flats for the mini-farm.</image:caption>

      <image:title>Blog - Let's Build Seedling Flats!</image:title>
      <image:caption>Tools needed: Power Drill, Screw Driver, Hammer, Wood Glue, Screw &amp; Nails, Drill Bits The power drill is used to drill pilot holes.  Because cedar has a tendency to split, it's a good idea to drill pilot holes for screws and nails.  We've used two different wood bits, one that matches the screws and one for the nails.  You'll need to choose the correct bit size for the nails and screws you're using.  We also use a larger drill bit to counter sink our screws, meaning we drill out a shallow hole that matches the size of our screw heads.  Doing this allows the screw to settle in flush, and also helps to minimize splitting the wood.</image:caption>

      <image:title>Blog - Let's Build Seedling Flats!</image:title>
      <image:caption>Full size seedling flats (as described in How To Grow More Vegetables) are made 23" x 14".  We like to build them half size at 14"x 13.25".  The half flats are much lighter and easier to carry when loaded up with moist soil and plants! We use screws and wood glue to assemble the frames to make sure they are strong and durable.  Remember Pilot holes to avoid splitting the wood!</image:caption>

      <image:title>Blog - Let's Build Seedling Flats!</image:title>
      <image:caption>Next we use the same 14" lengths use in the frame to make the bottom of the flat.  In this case we use nails, and again drill pilot holes.  We don't use screws or wood glue because the bottom boards will be the first to wear and rot, making placements and repairs easier.</image:caption>

      <image:caption>All of the plants grown on the mini-farm start their life in a 3" seedling flat.  There are times when several dozen flats will be in use at the same time, so we have to build many!  Today we built 8 flats, a good start and enough to start all of our onions and leeks.</image:caption>

      <image:caption>All of the seeds found in the Future Heirlooms Seed Bank were grown with love, by hand at our Grow Biointensive Research, Education and Demonstration Mini-Farm. All seeds are open-pollinated, grown organically, transplanted and harvested by hand with care. We’ve focused our research on rare and endangered varieties that are highly adaptable in order to facilitate acclimatization to micro-climates, and preserve these valuable and increasingly endangered genetics. As a result, you’ll find many Heirloom, Landrace and Heritage varieties!</image:caption>

      <image:title>Future Heirlooms Seed Bank - Our Micro-Climate</image:title>
      <image:caption>Future Heirlooms is located near Kimberley British Columbia, nestled in the Columbia valley between the Purcell and Canadian Rocky mountain ranges. Our gardens reach 4000ft elevation and are situated just under the 50th parallel. We have a cold short growing season in a semi-arid overall climate in the region. Our micro-climate is particularly cold, with roughly a 3 month main growing season, and 2 very frosty months on either side. We have no frost free growing months even in summer, with a typical summer day reaching 30c during the day and 5c overnight. Our soil is a sandy loam with moderately low soil organic matter and a fairly alkaline pH of 8-8.5.</image:caption>

      <image:title>Future Heirlooms Seed Bank - Acclimatization</image:title>
      <image:caption>Through rigorous variety trials and selective seed saving, we’ve begun to acclimatize these varieties to our unique micro-climate; selecting the strongest, fastest, highest yielding plants which also acclimatizes them to our unique micro-climate conditions. As a result, all of the seeds we are sharing with you are very cold tolerant, frost tolerant, adapted to extreme temperature shifts between day/night, and overall acclimatized to our dry climate, dry sandy soil and high pH. If you have a different micro-climate, fear not! These open-pollinated seeds are capable of acclimatizing to your micro-climate as well! Simply save your own seed, and you’ll quickly see your own yields increase as your plants grow and adapt to your growing conditions.</image:caption>

      <image:title>Bee Sustainable Hives - Top Bar Beehives</image:title>
      <image:caption>When we're not busy in the garden, we're busy building!  Beehives bridge the gap between garden and natural building.  We build Kenyan Style Top Bar Beehives, from renewable and non-toxic materials. Top Bar Hives aren't designed for production of honey, but rather to provide natural habitat for honeybees.  They allow honeybees to build their own comb to their own requirements, are easy to manage, and are perfect for beginners or experienced beekeepers!   Honeybees also provide the very important benefit of increasing pollination in our garden.  A shared relationship and harmony can be achieved with Honeybees, if only we look to their needs before our own. The Kootenay Society for Sustainable Living plans to build Top Bar Beehives for local beekeepers in the Columbia Valley. All sales and proceeds from our Top Bar Hives will go directly towards increasing awareness of natural beekeeping in Canada, and supports our honeybee workshops and education programs.</image:caption>

      <image:caption>Our new companions wasted no time building comb and laying brood. We’ve begun to take notes on which flowering crops in the garden the honeybees prefer, and of course we stuck a SensorPush temperature data logger INSIDE the hive to monitor daytime highs, and nighttime lows! You can also see we have a natural floor in our hive, invented and named the “Eco-Floor” by famous beekeeper Phil Chandler. We added an additional compartment below the main hive chamber, and filled it with material from the forest floor(leaves, rotting wood, insects) in an effort to mimic the natural habitat found inside a hollowed out log.</image:caption>

      <image:caption>We left all of the honey produced for the honeybees to consume over winter, with hopes that a heavy nectar flow this coming spring, coupled with a much larger population, will yield enough surplus for us to enjoy in the sweetness! Stay tuned for more updates, and if you’re hoping to buy a Top Bar Beehive, we have plans to build over the 2022/23 winter; with hives available for purchase spring 2023.</image:caption>

      <image:title>The Grow Biointensive Method - GROW BIOINTENSIVE</image:title>
      <image:caption>The GROW BIOINTENSIVE Method is a culmination of 47 years of experience, research and development-- resulting in a truly sustainable mini-farming system that focuses on growing a complete diet on as little land as possible, while using the least amount of water and resources as possible.  By focusing on growing soil, then crops, GROW BIOINTENSIVE quickly replenishes top soil and organic matter, and creates a symbiotic relationship between plants , insects and microbes.  By fostering biodiversity and soil health, GROW BIOINTENSIVE can significantly increase yields, while using a fraction of the natural resources compared with conventional farming.</image:caption>

      <image:title>The Grow Biointensive Method - Feeding the World</image:title>
      <image:caption>GROW BIOINTENSIVE mini-farming is being practiced and taught in over 152 countries around the world.  Major Grow Biointensive education centres exist in the United-States, Africa, Russia, New Zealand, Mexico, Ecuador, Peru, Nicaragua, and now Canada - with 100’s of satellite projects - working together to teach sustainable food self reliance. We believe small scale, localized mini-farming is the answer to malnutrition and starvation, not our current model of chemical mechanized mono-cropping.</image:caption>

      <image:title>The Grow Biointensive Method - 60-30-10</image:title>
      <image:caption>GROW BIOINTENSIVE dedicates 60% of the growing area for Compost and Calorie Crops that produce a tremendous amount of dry biomass that nourishes the soil through composting, and a significant amount of calories to feed the farmer.  30% of the area in special root crops that are the most efficient at producing very high amounts of calories per unit of area per unit of time, contributing most of our caloric needs for our diet.  10% of the area in vegetable crops high in vitamins, minerals and amino acids that aren't present in the compost and calorie crops.  Part of this 10% can be dedicated towards income producing crops.   This 60-30-10 rule allows GROW BIOINTENSIVE to produce a persons diet for an entire year, in the smallest area possible, while still remaining sustainable by growing enough compost material to give back more to the soil than we take.</image:caption>

      <image:title>The Grow Biointensive Method - The 8 Principles</image:title>
      <image:caption>GROW BIOINTENSIVE Mini-Farming uses 8 core principles, which are the key to truly sustainable food raising.  By using each principle together, we can grow enough carbon for the compost pile, produce enough calories to feed ourselves, and create a micro-climate in our garden that encourages biodiversity and vitality.  If any single principle is overlooked, the system cannot be truly sustainable.</image:caption>

      <image:title>The 8 Principals of Sustainability - The 8 Principles of Sustainable Food Production</image:title>
      <image:caption>GROW BIOINTENSIVE Mini-Farming uses 8 core principles, which are the key to truly sustainable food raising.  By using each principle together, we can grow enough carbon for the compost pile, produce enough calories to feed ourselves, and create a micro-climate in our garden that encourages biodiversity and vitality.  If any single principle is overlooked, the system cannot be truly sustainable.</image:caption>

      <image:title>The 8 Principals of Sustainability - The Roots of Sustainability</image:title>
      <image:caption>Of the 8 principals, the first 3 can be considered the roots of sustainability.  The roots create the connection heaven and earth, anchoring the system and providing life.</image:caption>
    </image:image>
    <image:image>
      <image:loc>https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5a52b3db1f318dd30f245364/1516674256019-ZJ1C0QYRMCCX90NKPDJB/GB+%281+of+75%29.jpg</image:loc>
      <image:title>The 8 Principals of Sustainability - Deep Soil Preparation</image:title>
      <image:caption>The first principle is deep soil preparation, which helps us to create ideal soil structure in our garden beds. When soils are compacted, we loosen the soil to a depth of 24 inches, creating pore space for air and water.  This supports plant roots and soil organisms which give life to the soil and enhance nutrient availability. The technique used to accomplish deep soil preparation is Double Digging.  Using a spade and spade fork, beds are carefully worked by hand, with the help of a digging board to minimize soil compaction.  The result is a naturally raised bed that fosters life below and above the soil surface.</image:caption>

      <image:title>The 8 Principals of Sustainability - Composting</image:title>
      <image:caption>The second principle is composting, and is vital to maintaining soil health and sustainability.  Compost returns nutrients and carbon to the soil, increases water and nutrient retention, supports microorganisms and builds soil organic matter. GROW BIOINTENSIVE compost piles are made by creating layers of mature plant material, immature plant material, soil from the garden, and water. Creating our own compost increases our self-reliance and sustainability, because we will no longer have to import fertility from off the farm.</image:caption>

      <image:title>The 8 Principals of Sustainability - Companion Planting</image:title>
      <image:caption>We can create beneficial relationships in the garden by choosing plants that encourage each other's growth.    Companion plants can follow one after another in the same bed, grow next to each other, or be interplanted together.  For example, growing beans before planting corn will fix nitrogen in the soil, which the corn needs in abundance.  By using many types of plants that flower all season long, we can attract a wide variety of insects.  Having biodiversity in the garden means we have beneficial insects that can control pests, and we ensure adequate pollination.</image:caption>

      <image:title>The 8 Principals of Sustainability - Open-Pollinated Seeds</image:title>
      <image:caption>Starting with Open-Pollinated seeds empowers us to save our own seed, and grow the same true-to-type varieties year after year. By saving our own seed we are increasing our self-reliance and sustainability by using only the freshest seed, and by no longer depending on seed companies. Seeds saved from open-pollinated plants will also have adapted to the local growing conditions, making them more resilient against climate change, pests and diseases.</image:caption>

      <image:title>The 8 Principals of Sustainability - A Whole System Approach</image:title>
      <image:caption>GROW BIOINTENSIVE is a unified farming method, and all 8 principles play an important role in creating a thriving garden ecosystem.  Because GROW BIOINTENSIVE farming can increase yields up to 600%, it can also deplete the soil at an accelerated rate.  That's why it's extremely important to use all 8 principles together, so we are sure to give back more to our soils than we take. The closer we get to a closed-loop system, the more sustainable the farm becomes. Remember that all things in the garden are connected, and that only a healthy living soil will produce health and nutrient dense food.</image:caption>

      <image:title>John Jeavons - John Jeavons</image:title>
      <image:caption>Director of the non‐profit Ecology Action, author, educator, agricultural researcher and master farmer, John Jeavons has spent the last 45 years developing and teaching a truly sustainable closed‐system/complete‐diet, organic food‐and‐soil production model that can be used by people in any climate and soil where food is grown.   His GROW BIOINTENSIVE Sustainable Mini‐Farming method is being used in 152 countries around the world, and enables small farmers to increase yields, build fertile soil up to 60x faster than nature, and use 66% less water per pound of food, compared with conventional practices.   John believes that each person has the capacity to make a profound difference in the sustainability of our agriculture and through it, our world; and that if we each learn to take care of our part of the Earth – our garden – then we can change our situation from one of scarcity to abundance: of enough for everyone.</image:caption>

      <image:caption>Young Agrarians (YA) is a network for new and young ecological and organic farmers. Since it started in January 2012, the network has grown across Canada from coast to coast through farmers organizing events (mixers, farm tours &amp; potlucks, apprentice meet-ups, etc.), contributing to the blog, adding resources to the U-MAP, and more! Young Agrarians is made up of a diverse array of food growers and lovers: rural and urban farmers, market gardeners, seed savers, food activists, bee keepers, community gardeners, food/farmer organizations and more — working to steward land and soil, and grow our local food systems. In British Columbia, YA delivers the B.C. Land Matching Program, providing hands-on, personalized land linking services in the Columbia Basin, Okanagan, Metro Vancouver, and Vancouver Island. Thanks to this service the Kootenay Society for Sustainable Living was able to meet with local land owners and created a partnership that now supports our Research and Demonstration Mini-Farm. The Young Agrarians Business Mentorship Network pairs new farmers in start-up with a mentor and provides business development support. The YA website offers a wide variety of farm-business related information, resources and tools, job postings, and the YA U-MAP with everything new entrants need to start and run a farm! Check out the YA blog for the Farm the Basin blog series featuring more interesting, inspiring and innovative farmers from across the Columbia Basin!</image:caption>

After I returned to Kenya from my 8 month GROW BIOINTENSIVE internship, I started to establish CESBA. Our mission is to empower small scale farmers with sustainable, environmentally friendly Biointensive methods and practices that will lead to resilient and empowered communities and improved livelihood and health. We focus on training small scale farmers in Ongata Rongai and Kiserian division of the larger Kajiado county with sustainable farming techniques so as they can grow their own food to feed themselves and sell the surplus for economic empowerment. We train and then keep close contact with farmers to ensure their success. We address community food insecurity issues and economic empowerment, and teach individual families to take responsibility for what they grow and eat. We strive to reach and empower 1000 households, create market links for all the farmers produce and involve youth in agriculture projects. Small scale farmers are responsible for feeding the world, so empowering them with the sustainable farming methods and linking them directly to markets eliminating the middle men who exploit farmers means more food secure and economically empowered community.</image:caption>

We strive to reach and empower 1000 households, create market links for all the farmers produce and involve youth in agriculture projects. Small scale farmers are responsible for feeding the world, so empowering them with the sustainable farming methods and linking them directly to markets eliminating the middle men who exploit farmers means more food secure and economically empowered community.</image:caption>

      <image:title>Natural Building - Michael G. Smith</image:title>
      <image:caption>I wrote my first book in 1998, a how-to cob construction manual called “The Cobber’s Companion” (now out of print). Later I co-authored “The Hand-Sculpted House” (Chelsea Green, 2002) and “The Art of Natural Building” (New Society, 2002). I have contributed articles on natural building to several other books and many magazines and journals. For over ten years, I have been the expert on both cob and straw clay on Green Home Building, where all of my previous questions and answers are archived. I currently serve on the Boards of Directors of The Natural Building Network and The Cob Research Institute.</image:caption>

      <image:caption>I am a designer and teacher.  I design and build sustainable structures that use the natural resources that are available: mud, sand and natural fibers. I hold a Masters in Interior Architecture &amp; Design and began my career as a professor teaching in universities on the east coast. I moved to Northern California to pursue my passion for sustainable building.  There I received a certification as a Sustainable Building Advisor in San Francisco, which has guided me to promote sustainability through all stages of our built environments.  Over the past few years I have more specifically been involved with natural building.</image:caption>

      <image:caption>How can we continue our research while also supporting our community with healthy food at the same time?

      <image:caption>Participants of the project sponsor a 100 square foot Grow Biointensive bed at our Research Education and Demonstration mini-farm. Sponsorship goes towards all of the costs of growing, maintaining, and harvesting crops for the duration of the season, as well as distributing the food to our local families.

      <image:caption>For the entire growing season all food grown in each sponsored bed will go either to a specific family in our community chosen by the sponsor, or to the food bank for distribution.

      <image:title>Feed a Family - Sustainability</image:title>
      <image:caption>To maintain sustainability and follow Grow Biointensive principals, the food produced in each sponsored bed will be shared equally among all families, with each receiving one tenth of the harvest. In this way we will grow six beds of calorie and compost crops, such as barley, oats and quinoa, three beds of area-efficient crops such as potatoes, garlic and leeks, and one bed of nutrient-dense foods such as kale, peas and carrots.</image:caption>

At the end of the summer we will have our root vegetables to offer; packed with calories and crops that will store over winter. They include Potatoes, Garlic, Leeks and Parsnips. Finally, during fall our spring planted grains will mature, offering a bounty of nutrition in the form of Quinoa, Barley and Oats.

      <image:title>Microclimate Identification - Keeping Track</image:title>
      <image:caption>One of the most valuable tools we can use to help identify and understand a specific micro-climate is to track daily high and low temperatures and keep a log of the results. This data can be used to accurately track frost dates, average temperatures for each month, and extreme events that may have had a significant impact on our crops. In most cases, gardeners will find that their specific high/low temperatures vary greatly from the regional forecast. Following regional frost date averages and planting timing guides is a good place to start, but if you want to avoid losing those new seedlings to a surprise frost, plant a crop that won’t have a chance to make it to maturity, or select a crop that requires a minimum of overnight warmth to thrive, it’s a great idea to find out as much as you can about your specific micro-climate, and plan accordingly!</image:caption>

      <image:title>Microclimate Identification - Top Bar Beehives</image:title>
      <image:caption>At Future Heirlooms, we’ve taken climate data collection to another level, and started using a digital data logger called Sensor Push which records temperature and humidity every 60 seconds 24/7 - 365 days a year! The data is displayed in a graph on our smart devices for live viewing, and also supports export in to spreadsheets for a more detailed analysis. We now can very easily keep track of not only the highs and lows of the day, but also the peaks and valleys throughout the day, and for how long we maintain temperatures during the day and at night. For example, our Min/Max thermometer tells us we reached 35c, but doesn’t tell us anything about how hot the day was overall. Our Sensor Push device will show us we maintained 30c+ for 5 hours with the peak reaching 35c for 1 hour, and in addition it tells us when it was most warm during the day which helps us plan watering, transplanting, and other garden tasks we may want to complete before the peak heat of the day. Why is this level of detail important? Let’s say we head out to the garden and see frost, which would indicate we are close to freezing, but we want to know how long we were at this low temperature. The data logger will show us when the temperature dipped below 5c and show us how long we maintained this temperature. There is a big difference between a quick dip below zero and some light frost at 6am, versus a drop below zero at midnight and a sustained freeze for 6 hours. Potatoes would show frost damage from sustained freezing, yet would be perfectly fine with a temporary light frost. Or perhaps we saw no frost at all because we didn’t reach the garden before sunshine melted it; our data would show we dropped below zero and we could safely assume we did have a light frost. Observation and experience in the garden is one of the most important factors in learning a micro-climate, however we can use technology to observe the things we aren’t able to see or that we aren’t present to observe first hand.</image:caption>

      <image:title>Microclimate Identification - Micro-Climates</image:title>
      <image:caption>Micro-climates are as diverse as the crops we’re each growing in our gardens. At Future Heirlooms, we’ve identified that our micro-climate is especially unique compared to the surrounding areas; consistently 5 degrees Celsius colder overnight. As a result, we experience more frost and more extreme highs and lows throughout our growing season compared to growers 10 or even 5 minutes away! This data is extremely valuable in helping us plan our garden design, and critical to correctly timing when crops will be safe to transplant and when they must be ready for harvest to beat a killing frost. It also guides us when choosing crops and even crop varieties to grow for continued research and acclimatization. For example, soft leafed crops like tomatoes and squash will not survive our micro-climate without a protective mini-greenhouse to shield from the frost; which can, after collecting data for 3 years at this location, surprise us any day of the growing season!</image:caption>

Soil temperatures contribute directly to the kinds of crops we can successfully grow, and to the microbe activity in our soil crucial to nutrient availability and biodiversity needed for healthy soils. Specific challenges we face at Future Heirlooms due to our especially cold micro-climate include slower plant growth, lower nutrient availability due to dormant microbes in the soil, risk of frost during the entire growing season, and kill frosts as early as late August. These challenges limit our options of crops to only the fastest, and more cold/frost hardy we can find, and restricts many crops to being grown inside greenhouses(tomatoes, squash, beans etc.)</image:caption>

      <image:title>John Jeavons (Copy) - John Jeavons</image:title>
      <image:caption>Director of the non‐profit Ecology Action, author, educator, agricultural researcher and master farmer, John Jeavons has spent the last 43 years developing and teaching a truly sustainable closed‐system/complete‐diet, organic food‐and‐soil production model that can be used by people in any climate and soil where food is grown.   His GROW BIOINTENSIVE Sustainable Mini‐Farming method is being used in 152 countries around the world, and enables small farmers to increase yields, build fertile soil up to 60x faster than nature, and use 66% less water per pound of food, compared with conventional practices.   John believes that each person has the capacity to make a profound difference in the sustainability of our agriculture and through it, our world; and that if we each learn to take care of our part of the Earth – our garden – then we can change our situation from one of scarcity to abundance: of enough for everyone.</image:caption>

      <image:caption>The Sustainable Garden Tool Share Program is a tool share service; providing members of our community with high quality tools that they can borrow when they need during the growing season. Tools include 5 spade forks, 5 flat spades, 6 trowels and 6 transplanting forks. This project was funded by the Community Initiatives Project in 2021, however due to inventory shortages we will be acquiring tools and completing this project spring 2022.</image:caption>

      <image:title>Microclimate Identification Initiative</image:title>
      <image:caption>Did you know that most gardens and mini-farms have a unique micro-climate? Sometimes even within the same town or city? Over the last 5 years we have been closely monitoring our micro-climate, using our trusted SensorPush smart sensors. These ingenious data loggers record the temperature (and many other things) every minute of every day - 24/7 and 365. Using a very user friendly app, we can then review the data in seconds. Going from simple min/max thermometers to this has opened up an entire new world of information, critically relevant to growing crops and maintaining a healthy soil! This project is designed to identify unique will deploy state of the art temperature and humidity data logging sensors to 10 different identified micro-climates in the Kimberley area - then share the results in a comprehensive and highly accurate garden calendar - complete with frost dates and recommended planting dates for crops. We’ll collect data for 5 years in order to establish a baseline, with intentions to continue this project in more locations over time and data log indefinitely! Applications to participate in this project will open in 2023.</image:caption>
