Permaculture Garden In The High Desert
youtube
this guy is in the high desert of colorado. soil conditions there are slightly different than here in so cal. we have high alkalinity here & so need to add nutrients differently to balance the soil. otherwise everything hes saying here applies to our operation.
this guy has solid advice. chiefly, save your own seed & invest that time! adapting plants to your environment & putting in the work are absolutely key to success in self sufficiency. and of course, build that soil by composting everything you can.
in the 10 years we've been working this land, I've watched the soil in my garden plots transform entirely. every year i am encouraged by the visible progress. every year i ramp up my efforts.
love what this guy's doing. i hope he gets to "retire" soon so he can go full time on his farm.

Located just four miles west of Carrizozo, Valley of Fires is one of the youngest lava flows in the continental United States, the second youngest in New Mexico behind the McCartys flow in the El Malpais National Monument.
Volcanic vents on Little Black Peak starting oozing lava about 5,000 years ago, filling the northern end of the Tularosa Valley with streams of molten rock for about 30 years. The volcanic field is associated with the Rio Grande Rift, a part of the Earth’s crust that is being gradually pulled apart. This creates faults, which provide paths for magma to reach the Earth’s surface. Whereas most of the volcanic activity has been steady seepage, the last eruption, about 1,500-2,000 years ago, was more explosive.
In total, the Carrizozo Malpais lava flow is 4-6 miles wide, 44-miles long, and approximately 160-feet thick, covering 125 square miles of the Tularosa Basin. The view from the top of Sierra Blanca is outstanding on a clear day. Valley of Fires lava flows extend from the north end of the Tularosa Basin to 14 miles north of the gypsum dunes of White Sands National Park. Dark and light. The geologic contrast is striking enough, and large enough, to be seen from space.

Some of my favorite views around one of my favorite places. Pine Creek, east of Clarno, in central Oregon. Late summer brings dramatic clouds, rain showers, and bold shadows to the steppe. This basin is steeped in history, littered with ancient archaeological sites, cultural sites, and the remains of 160 years of Euro-American ranching.
Clarno is not as remote as it was 60 or 100 years ago, but even on a busy weekend a car only drives by on the highway every 5 minutes or so. It is quiet, isolated, and one of the gems of Oregon.
