“How do we act on the fact that we are more ignorant than knowledgeable? Embrace the arrangements that have shaken down in the long evolutionary process and try to mimic them, ever mindful that human cleverness must remain subordinate to nature’s wisdom.” - Wes Jackson, co-founder and President Emeritus of The Land Institute

In September I had the pleasure of attending The Land Institute’s Prairie Festival in Salina, KS. The ecologists and plant scientists there are working to domesticate wild perennial plants and perennialize existing annual grains. Perennial crop polycultures will conserve soil and water, sequester more carbon dioxide, and require less fossil fuels/synthetic inputs.
