If you do not try to make food delicious, you will find that nature has made it so.

If a farmer does abandon his or her "tame" fields completely to nature, mistakes and destruction are inevitable.

The person who can most easily take up natural agriculture is the one who doesn't have any of the common adult obstructing blocks of desire, philosophy, or religion . . . the person who has the mind and heart of a child. One must simply know nature . . . real nature, not the one we think we know!

Straw mulch, a ground cover of white clover interplanted with the crops, and temporary flooding all provide effective weed control in my fields.
