I would love to see your design for this. I have been thinking about this for awhile now. And this is the idea I believe is necessary to prove 1) all people can be fed easily 2) help create a working model of a new society that needs to take place so the people will stop participating in the old paradigm society which creates suffering and inequality. I would love to connect with you and collaborate.

Nature has proven time and time again, through the staunch abundance of certain plants, how beneficial and health promoting they are and have been for millennia. It’s only modern man who has been brainwashed into believing they are useless weeds and must be irradiated by any means possible possible….usually toxically. This brain washing has resulted in disease and disfunction not to mention the herbicide of important healing plant life. Your gardens are an inspiration.

Many of the medicinal plants grow wild here, they just sprout from the earth, and we have to keep pruning them especially ashwagandha. I am inspired by Deborah's garden and I want to have a medicinal garden of my own because my sister practices a lot of natural healing, making oils and all sorts of other things. I love to work with plants via the kitchen mostly. I like this video a lot but I will have to go with what my situation permits me, in terms of topography and what would survive here in Northern India.
