Episode 101 Making economical or free biochar

Описание: In continuing to improve my life and get back to a healthy lifestyle of the past, part of this is benefiting from a naturally nourished garden. In using things that otherwise wasted and discarded, we find beneficial things that are easy to overlook. In this episode, I'll put together biochar, basically hardwood charcoal with nutrients that help our gardens not only grow, but thrive. The nutrient that I'll use is decaying plant matter and algae.

This channel is dedicated to educating and entertaining anyone interested in the art/science of historic restoration, which will include construction techniques and goals, related off-site projects, a little homesteading and off-grid living, history and maybe even a little farming. Since I work alone, and depend on no one, this is the ultimate DIY channel! On this property stands a Dogtrot style log cabin built in 1850, with an addition constructed in the 1970's. Although at one point, this was likely quite a nice and well cared for home, but years of neglect has caused a lot of deterioration.My intent is to have you learn some construction and restoration basics, as you watch. None of my videos are intended to teach the use of safety techniques or use of personal protective equipment. That responsibility is yours and those around you. Enjoy!
