With phyloplankton levels crashing and the whole marine food chain going belly-up, perhaps marine life should follow this whale’s example, and be a bit more pro-active.

The modern-day education system is almost entirely bent on creating an army of university professors and other specialists. We have been systematically trained to specialize, and as a result we approach problem-solving by studying parts of a whole, where the connections between them are commonly ignored.

We killed a goose at Zaytuna Farm the other day and by my count we served out 60+ student meals from it, plus two day’s worth of wonderful breakfasts for the staff. Not a bad effort I thought. Pretty good use of a bird. Here’s what we did…. Breakfast One Goose offal on toast accompanied with eggs from our beautiful chickens. We scramble the eggs with homemade butter that a French friend Jean-Luc brought over as a gift. He also brought homemade cheese and croissants. All good – good eggs, good butter, good Frenchman. Homemade bread toasted on a wood oven stove. Fresh goose offal sautéed with garlic and fresh herbs. Cardamon coffee. Yum. Breakfast Two Hash browns and goose ham with tomarillo relish and sautéed greens – served on grilled toast. |

In September 2007 I met a group of motivated, hardcore volunteer gardeners. When I say hardcore, some of these guys where involved with the [...]
