Don't you have snake menace? How to get rid of them in one's farm.

[@KrishnaMckenzie]

@@rosei6305 it doesn't matter , the space can be any size, its about diversity and you can have that in a circle. kzbin.info/www/bejne/pmq1c3aYgdipq9E

[@tesla4126]

@@darshanbakki4162 snakes are a part of the food chain . if snake population gets higher it will attract its predators (for eg. birds) so the food chain and the diversity will be balanced. some snakes also control rats and also its difficult to get food if they are concentrated in a particular area therefore no worrying about them.

I am amazed by your knowledge of local flora. Had spent couple of months in Auroville but unfortunately never had a chance to interact with you. During my stay I always wondered at wastage of palm fruits. In Bengal these fruits are prized for its delicacy. Basically the pulp is used. I have some tools to do it easily. If interested, I can share a few recipes with you. I am sure they will be good addition in cafe or in central kitchen.

Mr Mackenzie, namaste। I discovered your channel just now and i am in awe. Your words resonated with me so much. I have a question? Why are you not growing lemons or limes in the food forest? You know Indian way of eating is very much involved with citrus fruits, we will have a piece of lemon during meal with daal, or we will often drink lime juice as a tasty refreshing drink! Our mothers used citrus leaves in all kinds of cooking , from rice to meat, then why have you not chosen it? I just want to know.
