AS Health & Wellness is a PRIMAL human concern throughout our precious, abused and damaged Planet-

We stand in the position now, finally-
to provide the highest-quality, highly-valued and vitally enriching FOOD,
to a human DEMAND which will continue to RISE
as "conventional", long-supply-chain chemical farming continues to FAIL.

WE, as food growers, CAN MAKE PEOPLE STRONGER-
WE CAN MAKE OURSELVES, STRONGER.

to this, I say THANK YOU for showing interest in this oft-
ignored and maligned area of human effort.
~ thank you ALL, for being here ~

---------------------------

This isn’t a COURSE, in the traditional sense; think of it as a very affordable investment,  a Knowledge Fund with growing dividends. pun...
ok that was intended.

This is an IDEABANK, a pointer to POSSIBILITIES for your own farming adventures, and an advanced view of what farming is and may be for you- - -

MANY VIDEOS are rough & raw, many are straight camera-to-course. The farm and farmer conditions or constraints are explained in as great a detail as possible, the remainder of what you see and hear- becomes your ever present, ever accessible idea trove for the musing – with many more to come.

SHOWN HERE IS A DIVERSITY of crops, many with accompanying tips and techniques for growth or marketing

YOU WILL SEE different ecosystems & growing regions, each with constraining weather and seasonal conditions

YOU WILL HEAR farmers’ stories, of persisting in the face of calamity and adversity, and finding our Divine Earth’s encouraging dogged insistence of prevailing despite all that...

YOU NOW HAVE a Lifelong Co-Conspirator; farm guide, coach, call it a kindred zealot who shares your excitements and will offer assistance to support you throughout your own journey, of naked ground- to soil prep- to seeding- to growth- finally to harvest, in the midst of the bumps and setbacks you may encounter.

my name is im, with decades of farm experience, at your service.

SimPLife, the educational platform created for these offerings, wishes only to help in whatever way small or grand, to help facilitate the Lost Arts of the Basic,

TO ASSIST in the arming of denizens in this Human World- not to defacto conflict and violence- rather to the beguiling abundance and joy which Earth-as-Partner promises us-

WHEN OUR ATTENTIONS are once again drawn towards Responsibility- for our own Life Staples and for those Dear Ones around us~

THIS HUMAN LIFE ISN’T PASSIVE!

BE THE EXAMPLE. BE YOUR OWN MIND & HEART.

......and roll the dice right there beside the Gods of Experience- with as much likelihood for success as anyone else out there.......

!VIVE LA REVOLUCION, we say.......!

THIS IS SimPLife, and i am still im. see you inside.

Sensible
integrated
multiplicity   for

Living

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

* the main focus in the original course, Bio-Organic Farming & Gardening, was on learning the Ladakhi Organic Farm Method, as being overall the best, simplest & resource-conservative working farm stewardship that SimPLife has found throughout it’s decades-long multicultural global wanderings.

Most of the farms exampled herein however, are doing their own thing- SimPLife does not intend to judge these as a competing or lesser viewpoint, but does analyze and discuss each detail in order to foster greater understanding.

YOUR FEEDBACK is essential in this ever-unfolding effort, as we surmise the greater contributing energetic attention attracts the approach of a greater Beneficial Human Truth, to bounce back outward in the sharing.

Im, enviably simple Man living and spreading the soul of life even simpler than his name. A whole new (or may be old but forgotten) so valuable vision.

The course itself was interesting the teacher knows the subject. However as other students have stated the deliver and videos need to be improved. Too much noise on most of the videos which makes it difficult to hear what's been talked about by the teacher.

The birds in the background are hard to hear over. He promotes competition (low pricing) to get into a market. How can there be self-reliance without cooperation? Competition is what fragments, cooperation brings together.

I think this was a great course for me. I'm going into this Permaculture, bio-intensive gardening knowing nothing and so far its very educational.
