The Weblog

This page contains news, event information, and other items added by Ian and Adam, the resident farmers at Old 99. We send out a message every week, but most are set with a delete date about two weeks later. I archive some of the posts if they have content other than weekly availability of produce and meat.

You can send me questions too, which if they are of a general nature, I can post to this Old99 blog.

Related but sseparate, a spiritual teacher, Sadhguru, has been advocating soil health for past 10 years and I didn’t even know! See the Save Soil video at this link.

World-renowned wellness leader Sadghuru linked soil health to human happiness in this focused campaign, and is spreading the message to his billions of students and followers around the world. What’s well understood from experience by everyone who has already embraced biodiversity and/or animal integration in farming – is now catching hold in all other circles of society.
