This blog contains historical farming knowledge – methods, techniques, and values – gleaned from diverse sources such as written and print documents, oral history, art, architecture, tools, and other forms of material culture. The purpose of the blog is to recover farming knowledge that has been forgotten, or nearly so, to bring it into wider scholarship as well as to transfer it back into the hands of farmers. Entries focus on specific topics (eg. the use of the single-furrow plow, or the use of water meadows, or traditional companion planting, or preventing hoof-rot in sheep, or close observation of the land) and are also organized alphabetically for easy reference. This resource is collaboratively compiled by scholars of diverse fields, such as history, literature, and indigenous culture.
