Shumei’s Natural Agriculture approach to farming places health, beauty and love at the core of its practices. When Nakamura himself was learning Natural Agriculture, he was taught “Love nature, love crops and love your community.”
Health starts with healthy soil. Natural Agriculture applies NO:
Chemicals,
Pesticides,
Fertilisers, or
Animal manures.
Rather, through careful observation, growing crops that are suited to the local soil, and creating a balanced eco-system in which all elements co-exist, the soil is nurtured into a state of full health.
Using seeds from the crops grown in this soil produces strong, vigorous plants which, over time, can withstand harmful insects, diseases and adverse weather conditions.
The overall result is life-affirming, health-enhancing vegetables which taste rich and full of goodness!
