Back to Farming: The Galaxy Farm Farm Away


Now that school's over, I can now focus on farming!

The Nu Wave Farmers are going to be busy this summer preparing the demo farm we named, The Galaxy Farm Farm Away. The farm is located inside the UPLB campus near Copeland Gym.

As of now, a few of us are clearing the land and starting to make raised beds. You can watch our progress on our YouTube channel: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCuUQfOUc9nbwiZ9JhOIzpvg

We need all the help we can get: volunteers, equipment, and seeds and seedlings, etc. So if you're looking for something worthwhile to do this summer, please do help us start this permaculture farm!

Thanks also to Spread Organic Agriculture Philippines (SOAP) and OA Ako Telemag for featuring us in their 44th episode. You can watch the whole segment here:

It feels great to be back in Kainos Farm. After months of writing my special problem for my masters' degree, I'm now able to take people to the farm again and share my passion for permaculture.
