It has been a real struggle for me to get a grasp of how a gentile should apply Christianity to gardening / farming.
A book on this subject that I found of value is ->
https://redeemingthedirt.com/freechapter/
In this book I found several passages from the bible that related to farming I had not thought of before. And I found it most helpful.
The struggle I had was in looking at the OT passages of farming was trying to understand my role of being a Christian Gentile, how was I to look at the passages God gave to the Jewish people, and how to apply those to my farming today….. One of my questions was what does it mean to give the land rest? What exactly does that mean to the Jewish people then?
I dug thru the passages and I found verses that applied, and this brought up more questions like how do I find the rotation of the 6th year, as this is the year for the double blessing that was to provide for the 7th year….. In this quest I decided that yes I want to know what God said about farming to the Jewish people, but I don’t want to fall into the trap of legalism as they did in the NT with tithing of spices but missing out on more important things like mercy, and proper judgement.
In the book of Isaiah it says that God teaches the farmer how to use tools, this passage really caught my attention as today we have the Holy Spirit to direct us, and I believe if we ask God to show us, that God will show us what tools we need to do the job, and how to do the job…
Another passage that stood out to me was this passage ->
Ask ye of the LORD rain in the time of the latter rain; so the LORD shall make bright clouds, and give them showers of rain, to every one grass in the field. Zac 10:1
It started to become clear to me that we as farmers / gardeners beside asking for our daily bread we should also be asking for the rain for our crops. Today so often we trust in “science”, but we don’t stop to talk to God the one who gave us all that we see and know. Sometimes we have not, because we ask not…..
As you mention giving to the poor, I have noticed that the way the poor were taken care of in the OT was land was set aside so that they could WORK and harvest from the land. Gleaning is a practice that I do believe should be implemented today in that the poor can work for food, exempting those who are not able to work in which another means may be provided. Indeed those who give to the poor are but lending to God.
I guess the hardest part of all of this is getting the stewardship in our brains, in that we don’t really own our property, but are stewards of it, and God will call us into account for how we use it. I guess that I why I have been looking at what God has said in the bible about how to farm because I want to be a good steward of what God has given.
Another part of this is working not alone, but as the body of Christ, as we ask for “our daily bread”, not only for ourselves but those around us and working as a team. Paul talked about one planting, and another watering, and God bringing forth the increase. I have found that working with others in community gardens has great rewards as well.

I am a huge believer in essential oils……… IF….. the essential oil is quality… Walmart brands are notorious for not being what they are labeled to be.
Oregano oil + coconut oil from cold press has worked wonders for me with problems with my teeth / gums.
I bought an extra large bottle of the Oregano oil to have in supply for backup as a major war or economic collapse does not seem to be far away.

I have been wanting to barter my skills for setting up solar systems….
The problem I have with that is if the customer does something wrong and burns his house down, they may come back and sue me.
I feel that same about trading food goods.
I rather trade seeds or cuttings , as there is low risk and they benefit, and I benefit from the barter.

I have watched about everyone of his videos. I adore how he used methods that are for the long term. His gardens are amazing, and I believe he sees the future and is now ready for it.

You can get them precut to various sizes, I guess one could get a pair of scissors and test them.
I would only do experiments in that you put the food in the fridge after you finished to see if the seal works if it does not work you could still eat the food…
What impressed me is that she was able to take an old ring that did not work, and make it work with this method.

The best tool I have found so far to cut out the rings is leather punches.
I was not aware one could buy silicone rings for jars already as she shows in this video.

Read the first lines of this post, they did not know this, they are asking the question, there are many many more out there that only get their info from the TV…
I do not blame them for not knowing. Those who are the information gate keepers have done their job very well.

When one looks at numbers one has to think of how many of them are active? How many of them can find “The clinic”. how many watch their feed?
From my standpoint if I can just get one person to avoid the traps put down by the CDC, and the next death traps they are setting up with our tax dollars my mission is accomplished.
All I want to do is present evidence, and let people decide. I have seen the methods of the CDC, NIH, FDA, and I don’t like being lied to, manipulated, mandated.
I know the majority of people will not look at the evidence, but there are a few that will, and that is enough. Mission accomplished.
