The garden, the most revolutionary
I opened a bottle of wine for a celebration. The wine is made in a hamlet of Sara, for home. Put the cider in the bottle and it looks very similar to cider: in the mouth is dancer, short alcohol, no traces of taste of wood and the final... A category ending, magnificent! Like cider, grape wine is also becoming more and more at home. Anyone who knows how to combine health with quality of life knows perfectly the level of articles he has made at home.
Sara’s farmhouse bears the name of “Ihitia”, and the Urbistondo family works on it a lot of exquisite foods: cider, must, cider vinegar, grape vinegar, honey, cheese, paté and other disgusting... I, from time to time, have the honour to taste one of them; today, excellent wine 2012. Burgundy and Bordeaux, they're on site!
The growth of each and every child is one, very different from the measure of neighbor and crowd. Having at hand a quality livable alternative, rather than rights, is a tiredness of the way. Hence the importance of the garden. The orchard is the beginning of the world. The orchard is the only thing we can do today. It's almost the only one. Revolutionaries. To touch the land, to feed on the high thanks to the land, to value the real value of food, to recognize the work of the peasants... Municipal gardens are better. By making an orchard between people, it becomes a popular revolution. Money knows this: the power of the future lies in controlling food production. Let's make orchards. The vegetable garden itself will bring chickens, pig stables, herds, cheese shops, apples, wineries... Experience joy.
We are becoming aware that there are more and more places where people live in the garden. In Todmorden, England, they have woken up and come to light. In 70 summers of the city they cultivate fruit trees, vegetables, fine herbs, etc. Of the 15,000 inhabitants, 270 work as volunteer workers over two mornings a month. The harvest of this work is available to anyone, including the tourist. The first one you see when you arrive by train is a map of these orchards and fruit trees. And in it he wrote “Help yourself!”, “Take!”.
This is a year in which the hope is that in 2018 it will be fully self-sufficient.
Last night I went out quiet and hunt snails. After the beautiful day, the sky had cleared completely and everything pointed to the dew being beautiful. In the hope of that humidity, I suspected that our pair, snail and serene, would go for a walk.
I took it, I took it. Twilight... [+]
There are other avenues that go beyond organic farming. The ecological aspect, in today’s day, only means that they comply with regulations. It is a breakthrough over traditional industrial or capitalist agriculture, but it is not a destination for some. Agroecology,... [+]
More and more modern materials are being seen in orchards. This horticulturist has changed them in winter to eat sprouts in spring. Regordeta plants are snails and slugs, a tender food. But corrugated plastic tubes, five-liter water bottles... Everything is OK to keep the hungry... [+]
How many hours have our farmers spent in the misery of what comes from heaven? And those who will have to pass. You'll never lose that fear of what might happen over time, you'll hide, you'll walk away, you'll fan away, but you won't be able to move away forever.
We have prepared a... [+]

I've stared in a corner of Jacob's vegetable garden. Joxean Artze makes us cuckold by the back cover and Nemesio Etxaniz by her fold. Koldo Izagirre, Lauaxeta, Montoia, Juan Kruz Beloki, Borges or Xabier Lete are other grains that can be found at the bottom of the... [+]
The passersby we have thrown into a new world, we have had to face a number of difficulties that have made us enjoy. In the absence of a grandmother who speaks to the plants, in the absence of the image of a grandfather who is soaking at the right time… We have felt the need... [+]
In the orchard we have a crew of awesome friends. Lately we have talked about the grandmother mantangorri on the occasion of the asarre that cleanses the garage and the pajarillo. But it's not the only one, not even the only one. We have a lot of friends doing similar work.

The orchard is a unique school. There you can learn a lot. You don't have to admit a school without gardens. Exercise, food, biodiversity, cultural landscape, genetics, period, generational exchange, links between the earth and our health, aesthetics, gastronomy, ecosystem... [+]

In order for Jews and Jews to grow and to stand up with the lianas on the right, they are placed a blind spot on our side, on this side of Beterri. The stick, the rod, the fork, the arba... It has a lot of names. I found a “pordon” that I can’t find the word “parda” in... [+]
Horticulture is on the surface. Someone said, if you want to live happily, put yourself in an orchard and grab. The new horticulturists around me are happier, but more tired. I am, of course, at ease, this environment that is expanding everywhere is a stimulus. This return to... [+]
