Passive Organics


Rumors have been circulating of perhaps the existence of some minor social un-rest amongst the cow peas, okra, and tomatoes...I have noticed nothing during casual observance; however that does not negate the fact that a covert uprizing could be in the works. I decided to tighten security and illuminate the perimeter fencing. It is no wonder we have such trouble with bugs. It's like a neon landing-strip out there.

Shared Technology







We have been witness to the abundant attributes shredded cardboard has demonstrated out at SWOSU Farm, and are excited with the opportunity to promote the application of the material in yet another community-based small scale agricultural system. The acorn squash and cucumbers however; seem to disagree with the process, and are rumored to be circulating a NIMBY petition within the ranks of the neighboring raised-beds, as well as other non-sustainable propaganda.

Aquired Data


The use of shredded cardboard, and compost out at SWOSU Farm, seems to have optimized the growth potential of the soil. We are pleased with the current direction the plants have taken, which upon close inspection, appear to maintain a primarily vertical trajectory.
