Original Transplants

In episode 8 of the Original Transplants podcast, Satoyama Homestead stewards Sarah and Will observe the unofficial end of summer, announce the 2015-16 Satoyama Presents! Events series, update listeners on the bees and chickens, discuss homestead fun (in lieu of homestead chores), and review recent agricultural news from Lancaster Farming about avian influenza, UVC lighting as disinfectant for organic produce, modern-day cattle rustling, citizen science in support of pollinators, the impact of climate change and sea-level rise on agriculture, and a pig on the lam. We will post a transcript with show notes and references at http://spreadcasts.tumblr.com soon, and will transition to a bimonthly recording schedule until next summer.
