      Another thing teachers will be pissed at having to have to teach and most students will choose not to learn.

    • @darthvader5300
      @darthvader5300 4 года назад +7

      Corporations will hate it because kids will learn about growing organic pesticides of all kinds and growing organic fertilizers of all kinds. Like Yerb De La Pulga (we got hundreds of plants imported and propagated since the 60s and 70s), Mexican marigolds (tagates minuta) to protect against blight, fungus, soil pests, plant pests, plant diseases. Camomile which is a plant doctor which is planted to a drooping or nearly dying plant to revive it back alive and in good health again. Comfrey is a most beloved plant in the permaculture movement because, not only does it accumulate a lot of nutrients, it produces and abundance of organic mater with which to spread them out. Comfrey leaves are so powerfully fertile that they get compared to manure.

      If you dont stop and feel some chamomile tea every now and then or get juiced up on fresh goji berry well your missing out in this short existence of a life we all take for granted. Start a orchard today.
