ORGANIC GARDENS For Consciousness Expansion By J.E. Ante

Mankind is a child of the sea and the farther inland he goes the more unhealthy he becomes. So the many micronutrients of the sea become the primary nutrients that must be supplemented in all organic gardens. Various dried kelp meals are the first and only completely necessary ingredient for a successful organic garden for consciousness expansion of the mind, body, and heart.

Kelp meal and the hundreds of micronutrients of the oceans contained in kelp provide the necessary nutrients for perfect plant, animal, and human health. And the micronutrients of the oceans are necessary for natural expanded consciousness of man and the emotions of the heart to develop and grow. Without the complete nutrition of the oceans humanity remains a stunted emotional cripple of growing age-related diseases and limited consciousness.

I think organic gardens are for fools and organic orchards are for the wise man. Organic gardens take a great deal of work, knowledge, and tending but a perennial organic orchard, berry bushes, and herbs take little work and need to be planted only once not yearly. Organic gardens need yearly planting and much work while yielding many below ground food crops that give little to expanded consciousness and emotions of the heart. Below ground crops are best to plant in a survival situation only because they yield a far greater
quantity of food which is also less likely to be harmed by adverse weather conditions and droughts.

Kelp meals, fish emulsions, and green sand are all very good natural fertilizers from the sea and oceans. They and the local natural organic fertilizers can be added to create plant growth. By cultivating perennial plants you do not disturb the soils yearly but simply add back organic fertilizers to the top of the soils to be carried down to the roots by worms, insects, and the rains. This and the fact that permanent mulches can be placed around perennial fruit and nut trees, bushes, and herbs to prevent weeds makes for far less work in your garden orchard.

Most fruit, nut, and berry trees and bushes make use of vertical space and sunlight far better than does a crop of vegetables that grow only knee or waist high. So far more food
crops can be harvested from the more tall growing trees and bushes than from vegetable crops which must regrow both their roots and tops yearly. But of course people will usually want the variety of both vegetable crops and the perennial orchard food crops to grow in their gardens. But I would first make sure the permanent fruit, nut, herbs, and berry bushes are planted first and foremost in your organic garden.

The first and foremost benefactors of your kelp fertilizers will be the worms and insects of the soil. They will become the healthiest varmints in the neighborhood. Then the plants you grow will begin to benefit from the increased soil health and vigor. In a few years time the soil and plants will begin to bear a rich harvest of high quality fruits, nuts, berries, and herbs which you need to feed your own body for perfect health and expanded consciousness of the mind, heart, and spirit. Without this complete health and connections to nature and the oceans you become a stunted and depressed mental zombie of the New World Order economic wage slaves which is the norm on planet Earth today.

The complex emotions of mankind and expanded consciousness need the many hundreds of micronutrients of the oceans to build the complete body and the complete emotions of man. Without it we become depressed ill-healthy humans of despair and ignorance which grows and expands into old-age and death. But life is not a childhood peak of vigor and a
downward spiral to old age and death of Americans today. Life is meant to be a lifelong creative celebration of emotions, love, knowledge and wonder.

One thing that you will notice when gardening with organic kelp meal and other nutrients of the oceans is that wildlife, birds, and bees will tend to feed in your garden, trees, and bushes and compete for the foods growing in your garden. Usually there will be an abundance of foods so sharing will not be a problem for you. But nets are easy to utilize if you need to limit the foraging of animals and birds in your garden. Food plants will usually be far healthier and so pests will not bother them but go elsewhere to feed on unhealthy plants which do not have the natural resistance to insects that healthy plants have.

Domestic dogs and cats which feed off of plants and mice in your garden will
be far healthier. But natural seafood fish type cat and dog foods can greatly increase the health, happiness, and vigor of domestic animals in a few months time and pay for themselves in fewer vet visits.

The self-sufficiency of a perennial orchard of fruits, nuts, berries, and perennial herbs and vegetables is necessary for perfect mental, emotional, and spiritual health and vigor of expanded consciousness. It is a necessary investments which earns far more dividends in a single year than any 401k plan will ever deliver. And your garden will always
be there to care for you and your family for a lifetime of enjoyment and wonder.
