Building a transplant bed the regenerative way. 🥬🤠💩👍🏻💪🏼👨‍🌾🧑🏼‍🌾🦗🕷️🦎🐦‍⬛🦝🐀🌿🌱☘️🍃🎋🍂
This bed started with a clean reset: we pulled off the landscape fabric that had been used to smother the previous lettuce crop, then laid that same fabric along the garden edge to help suppress weeds where they were still trying to creep in. From there, we fed the bed with aged goat manure pellets for fertility, installed drip lines for efficient water delivery, and topped it with bamboo mulch harvested from our border bamboo.
The transplanting part was just as intentional. I used a long-handled dibble made from an old fork handle to open planting holes right at each 12-inch drip emitter, keeping the spacing at two rows in a 30-inch bed. After that, we set in soaked okra transplants and irrigated to help them settle in fast.
That’s the beauty of a biointensive system: every step is doing more than one job. The mulch protects soil moisture, the drip line targets water where roots need it, the manure feeds biology, and the bamboo keeps biomass cycling back into the farm instead of being wasted. Less input, more function, healthier soil.

Let’s talk about the new EO that was signed this week in regard to regenerative farming. .j_richards will also be joining me on the podcast to talk more about what’s happening in government right now with our food system and farming, so make sure you’re subscribed!

On June 25th, an Executive Order on regenerative agriculture was signed. Healthier soil. Fewer chemicals. A return to how God designed us to steward the land. But discernment is part of stewardship too—so let’s read past the headline.

→ What it does:

Expands a USDA program helping farmers adopt regenerative practices—cover crops, reduced tillage, managed grazing. Voluntary, run through your local NRCS office, open to farms of every size.

Directs the EPA to examine chemical inputs and residues in our food. Especially pre-harvest desiccates.

Funds research into how those chemicals build up in our bodies over time.

→ What the headlines skip:

That “$700 million” isn’t new money. It was announced in December 2025 by redirecting existing conservation dollars. This order expands a program already underway.

For scale: Washington spends $15–16 BILLION a year just on crop insurance. This pilot is about 1% of USDA’s conservation budget. The headlines suggest a revolution. The budget suggests an experiment.

A new 15-member advisory council will guide it—9 seats belong to farmers, but the names aren’t released. The private “partners” aren’t named either. Who fills those seats and controls the new certification systems will matter enormously.

None of this means we dismiss it. There’s real funding and real potential here. One of my questions has always been to be wary of government hand outs. But I also understand that big farms that are already heavily in it need it.

Stay informed. Ask hard questions. Let’s see how this unfolds.
