The Original Transplants Podcast Episode 43: Garden Math, 3/31/19Neither of the stewards at Satoyama Homestead are all that math-inclined. Sarah and Will do their best anyway in this 43rd edition of the podcast. Subjects discussed: is that a prime number?; spring honey bee business; chicken crop problems; dealing with a violent rooster; edible food arriving in spring; "garden math" or why you should stop worrying and start calculating your garden; orchard prep; spring cleanup; the Woods in My Backyard series put out by Penn State Extension; and the fox that walked into the wrong chicken coop.Notes:Jurassic Park film, 1993True Grit film, 2010The Vegetable Gardener's Bible, by Edward C Smith, 2000Chester County Food Bank Seed to Supper, https://chestercountyfoodbank.org/programs-education/raised-bed-gardens/seedtosupper/Lancaster Farming, "Now is the Time" Column by Leon ResslerYou Bet Your Garden/Gardens Alive, www.gardensalive.comHow to Change Your Mind: What the New Science of Psychedelics Teaches Us, 2018, by Michael PollanWoods in Your Backyard, 2019, Penn State Extension: https://extension.psu.edu/backyard-woodsNikola Tesla, Free Energy: http://free-energy.ws/nikola-tesla/Pyne, Stephen J. 1982.
