MIDWEEK MINI MARKET - 18


By Dr. R Sudarshan

In a small clearance of our food forest organic farm, we are erecting a trellis. Surrounded by trees for a windbreak, the trellis will stand its ground firmly in storms. And in a week, we will plant grape vines at the base. In a couple of years, grapes green, red and black will hang down through the metal chequers. Well, dreams are what we all live for.

Tomorrow at 8 AM, the 18th week of the midweek mini will open amidst rains. That's for your Wednesday supplements.

Organic Farmers' MIDWEEK MINI MARKET - 18, Wednesday, 6 July 2022, 8 AM to 10 AM

A PLACE OF SALE IS A WAY OF LIFE

By Dr. R Sudarshan



We clean the yard overnight since the market assembles quite early in the morning. But if it rains in the night or a storm blows at dawn, the market yard will have turned untidy by the morning, whereas the housekeeping staff won't be there till 10.

But on Wednesdays in the midweek mini market, we are sure of a kind little soul that lends support of any kind to us, housekeeping included. Yes. As always, Anushka came. She saw the ground, she swept the place and helped tidy the business. 

There just can't be a better bargain in a vegetable market.

THE LIFE SUSTAINING HOLLOW HEARTS OF PAPAYA

By Dr R Sudarshan A tall papaya tree bit the dust when the night rider wild pigs dug into its base to steal it's succulent roots. And a curious little boy visitor to the farm chopped and sliced it to feel the power of an axe. We then rediscovered a string of hollow chambers in the stem that we had long forgotten after the college days. The pith cavities are the multiple hearts of the papaya vascularity. Raising water and nutrition from ground to sky, holding them in steps to strengthen the tall growing stem and gradually filling those fruits with the pulp and nectar, the hollowness is the substance of this existence. A plant is a wondrous source of symmetry, geometry, science, technology and food. And a farm is a relearning device.

COMMUNITY DIALOGUE - 1

By Dr. R Sudarshan EATING CLEAN: COMMUNITY DIALOGUE - 1;  Featured Speaker - Sindhu Ramachandra;  Friday, 15 July 2022 at 5:30 PM E ating clean is a lifestyle fundamental, easily ignored and abused in the fast lane of tongue temptations. And the long convoluted tube that we call 'gut' is often turned into a gutter that is forced to process what it is not meant for - synthetic food, herbicides, pesticides, and life-threatening substances. Sindhu is a biochemist with work experience from IISc. She pursues data science and AI in the context of biochemistry. An ardent believer in organic farming, she cares for clean foods. And she knows how unclean foods can turn your life upside down. Community Dialogues at the Farmer's House are an engagement with reason to restore the dignity of life. Come, listen, interact and benefit. Attendance is FREE. Register with Gagan at 97421 62956. * * * Farmer's House, Silverfish Books, Kutz Bowl and the Farmer's Market, # 1A, 13th Cross,...
