In this episode of Propaganda By the Seed, I’m talking with Dr. Bob Bors about Haskaps. Bob spent many years working with this species and selected and named some of the best varieties around. edgewood-nursery.com/podcast/2025...

I’m starting to schedule interviews and I’ve got a bunch of plants I’m interested in cover where I don’t have a guest in mind. A ideal guest would have deep knowledge of the plant from years of personal experience. They could be a farmer, gardener, nursery producer, academic, breeder, herbalist etc.

Today I'm reposting the very first podcast I was ever on, an episode of The Solecast from 2018. This podcast sparked my friendship with Tim which led, eventually, to collaborating on Propaganda By the Seed. edgewood-nursery.com/podcast/2025...

In this episode I talk about string and traps, mundane, but perhaps important topics. After that I answer Gather's question about sourcing unusual plant species. I'm starting to run a bit low on shorts topics, so if you've got a request, please get in touch! edgewood-nursery.com/podcast/2025...

What plant would you like to see highlighted on a future episode of Propaganda By the Seed? Bonus points if you recommend a person to interview on that topic.

Today I’m talking about composting. It's a big topic so even though this is a bit longer than average for a short episode, it's really just an intro to the topic. I'll cover how different types of composting work and then focus in on my favorite, the static pile. edgewood-nursery.com/podcast/2025...

This week on Live Like the World is Dying, @hey-casandra.bsky.social interviews Aaron @edgewood.bsky.social and @bytheseed.bsky.social all about trees. We discuss why and how people might grow trees, and how that relates to food sovereignty and community preparedness. pinecast.com/listen/4ce23...

Not sure why you would want to, but you can now listen to propaganda by the seed on YouTube. I really dislike doing video production, so I basically don’t do it. There are some handy seed cleaning tutorials on there too that @youngsole put together. m.youtube.com/@infiniteohms

I meant to include this with the grafting episode of Propaganda By the Seed… This shows a tool for splitting rootstocks for cleft grafting. A scrap of thin wood with a 3/8” hole drilled in it. It lets you to cut towards the hand holding the rootstock without risking cutting your hand if you slip.

In this first episode of Propaganda By the Seed shorts I'll be telling you about grafting, a method of plant propagation that joins 2 individual plants (the scion and the rootstock) and lets them grow as one. Stream at edgewood-nursery.com/podcast or on your favorite podcast platforms.

I’m glad you enjoyed it! Definitely going to do more collaborations with them. I dilute urine for fertilizer 5-10 X. Ideally I would apply to soil around plants on a rainy day and dilute 5x, if I’m doing on a sunny day and not water, I might dilute more like 10x. I use it during the growing season.

You can find the zine for free here: www.tangledwilderness.org/features/edi...
