Yes you can! Dont be afraid to prune, however peppers and eggplants are naturally bushy plants (except some varieties like Poblano which grow very tall). So prune them to suit your space!

Do you let your soil dry out good before you water again?.
Reply
Fred Lewis
Fred Lewis3 months ago
+Dee B
Although it is good to let the soil dry out a bit before watering it is equally important to...
A) Never let it dry out to the point your plant is wilting. ( A side note...in extreme heat leaves will wilt naturally. DO NOT confuse this with dry soil). Check soil by poking your finger as far down as you can. If dry, apply water. But do not water the leaves and definetely not while sun is overhead and hot conditions prevail. Water in the morning. Evening watering can cause too much humidity around plants and can accelerate mold on leaves and stems/branches during still conditions (no wind). Morning is best...if you can endure the mosquitoes...lol.
B) Too much water is bad. Tomatoes, peppers, cukes and melons need about an inch/day. Too much will cause the flowers and newly developed fruit to become yellow and drop off.
The very best solution to watering is a Soil Humidity Meter. Several types are available. Poke into the soil and read the conditions on the meter. Quick, reliable, and an asset to prevent overwatering.
Good luck, hope this helps.

City as Farm: City Dwellers Love to Grow Food
Did you know that almost half of all Australian households grow some food? Incredible! Also more than a quarter of food consumed in Australia comes from urban and peri-urban areas - on just 3% of agricultural land. That’s amazing! Many cities are filled with pockets of food - but they could be have so much more.
Corridor of green around the old city of Ljubljana, Slovenia where so many people grow their food locally and take surplus to market.
I was delighted to offer a one of the mini keynote presentations at the start of the Australian Urban Agriculture Forum in Melbourne last weekend. Photo: Nick Rose: Sustain Australia
For some people growing food in the city seems like the right thing to do - even if it’s just flavouring meals with some freshly plucked herbs. However for many around the world, urban agriculture is essential for survival. Many in poor countries spend over half over their income on food. It’s estimated that globally, around 800 million people are involved in urban agriculture producing around 20% of the food.

AUSTRALIAN URBAN AGRICULTURE FORUM - October 21-22, 2016
I’ve just returned from 4 days in Melbourne. I am so glad I made the trip to be part of the Australian Urban Agriculture Forum organised by Sustain Australia and The University of Melbourne (Urban Horticulture Program). I haven’t written for a week because I’ve been so absolutely immersed in preparing, sharing, listening, exploring, chatting. I am now so full of stories and ideas - I’m not actually sure where to start.
I am feeling completely enlivened by the experience and connections made. It was so great to catch up with many old friends, and to meet so many other amazing urban agriculture people from around Australia and the world.
Photo: Morag Gamble
It was a delight to spend one of the days with Costa (ABC Gardening Australia) again too. I just love tossing ideas around with all our local food enthusiasts and active practitioners. It renews my energy, commitment and excitement about the work I do.
For as long as I can remember I’ve been involved in various forms of urban agriculture - both in Australia and around the world. Since the forum, my mind has been abuzz with possibilities and I can feel the potential bubbling. Here's my 3 minute summary at the end of the two days of proceedings.
CITY AS FARM
One thing I feel sure of is that the notion that cities need to feed themselves must be explored much more holistically and seriously. More than half of humanity lives in urban areas and this figure is rising. Considering that so much food is already growing in the city areas, I am surprised that such little attention is paid to urban agriculture - limited research, information and support in most places.
Urban agriculture is like a hidden industry, and because of this, despite the incredible benefits it brings, it is under threat particularly in places like Australia. Current forms of urban development continue to gobble up good farming land around all our cities. There are many other models for developing land that integrate urban agriculture and I’d like to explore examples of these more in future posts.

I think however things are about to change. Over the past few years there has been a distinct shift in public attitude toward urban food growing. People and organisations have been lobbying for change globally, and on World Food Day (15 October 2016) the Milan Urban Food Policy Pact was signed by 132 cities. This represents 460 million inhabitants and urges urban planners everywhere to make food systems central in city planning - to weave food growing into the fabric of the city.

Some of the forms that urban agriculture often take are:
Home kitchen gardens
Balcony gardens
Verge gardens
Rooftop gardens
Wall gardens
Permablitz
City farms
Community gardens
Allotments
Kindergarten and childcare gardens
School gardens
University gardens
Workplace gardens
Edible landscaping
Edible street trees
Community orchards
Food forests
Pocket farms
Horticultural therapy gardens
Community kitchens
Seed saving groups
Social enterprises
Community cafes
Food coops
Food box systems
Food swaps
Food banks and food relief
Food share
Gleaning
Community composting
Food waste reduction
Farmers markets
Community supported agriculture
Market gardens
Aquaponics and hydroponics
Community gardens are for all ages. Photo: Morag Gamble
Farmers markets directly connect urban consumers and local producers. To have a healthy urban agriculture, we also need to consider different marketing systems. Photo: Morag Gamble

Over 20 years ago, we started Northey Street City Farm. Today it continues to be a thriving centre for urban agriculture, and learning about living simply and sustainably in the city. www.nscf.org.au Photo: Morag Gamble
URBAN AGRICULTURE HELPS FEED THE WORLD
Integrated urban food systems help us to address the complex web of issues (social, ecological and economic) that urban societies face in what seem like embarrassingly simple yet elegantly effective ways.
Urban and peri-urban agriculture is critically important for the health and wellbeing of our cities and its people, to:
provide fresh healthy local food
absorb waste water
recycle food waste back into the soil
reduce food miles
connect people to land
cultivate community
support physical and mental wellbeing
create new green spaces
achieve greater food security, food sovereignty and food democracy
strengthen urban resilience
help alleviate poverty and hunger
contribute to the ecological integrity of cities and a healthy urban metabolism
encourage biodiversity
reduce impact on climate
improve air quality
improve the thermal and acoustic comfort of buildings
and much more ...
NB: There’s a great webpage detailing urban agriculture and its multitude of benefits http://www.ruaf.org/urban-agriculture-what-and-why. The founder of the RUAF, Henk de Zeeuw, was a keynote speaker at the Urban Agriculture Forum in Melbourne the other day. It was an absolute delight to meet and talk with him about an incredible diversity of program and projects around the world.
Practical permaculture workshops help people to build skills needed to grow food at home.
HOW MUCH FOOD CAN WE GROW IN THE CITY?
Dr Rachel Carey of Footprint Melbourne, based at the University of Melbourne, presented some very interesting research about Melbourne’s food bowl and footprint. Their studies show that Melbourne’s food bowl could still produce 41% of the city’s food, 82% of it’s greens and 81% of chicken meat. However Dr Carey says, if the current pattern of urban development continues, by 2050, when Melbourne’s population reaches 7 million, it would only be able to grow 18% of its food and 21% of it’s greens. Something has to change.

My name is Morag Gamble and I am living and working a permaculture life. I live an 'Off-the-Grid' lifestyle in a permaculture village near Maleny in the subtropical part of southeast Queensland, Australia with my husband and 3 young children.
We designed and built our modular eco-home - with much appreciated help from my family. We are mortgage-free and live simply. Our income is derived from permaculture-related activities. We grow a lot of vegetables, herbs and fruit in the polycultural garden-playground surrounding our home. We collect our water, deal with our wastewater on-site and produce most of our own power.
I love this way of living and I love bringing my children up in this environment. They are Nature Kids and they are learning vital skills for resilience, compassion and future problem solving through our ecological unschooling approach.
I am also passionate about how this way of life can make a positive contribution to society and support ecological regeneration.

Top 10 Amazing Fruits that Grow in the Weird Ways Published on Aug 29, 2015
Amazing Fruits that Grow in Weird Ways
Cashew
Cashews are not actually nuts but seeds. They are a popular snack and food source. Cashews, unlike oily tree nuts, contain starch to about 10% of their weight. This makes them more effective than nuts in thickening water-based dishes such as soups, meat stews, and some Indian milk-based desserts. Many Southeast Asian cuisines use cashews for this unusual characteristic, rather than other nuts.
Cocoa
The cacao tree is native to the Americas. It may have originated in the foothills of the Andes in the Amazon and Orinoco basins of South America, current day Colombia and Venezuela, where today, examples of wild cacao still can be found. Cocoa trees grow in hot, rainy tropical areas within 20° of latitude from the equator.
Pineapple
The pineapple is a tropical plant with edible multiple fruit consisting of coalesced berries, and the most economically significant plant in the Bromeliaceae family.
Raw pineapple is an excellent source of manganese (76% Daily Value (DV) in a one US cup serving) and vitamin C (131% DV per cup serving)
The plant is indigenous to South America and is said to originate from the area between Southern Brazil and Paraguay; however, it is important to note that little is known about the origin of the domesticated pineapple.
Black Pepper
Black pepper is a flowering vine in the family Piperaceae, cultivated for its fruit, which is usually dried and used as a spiceand seasoning. When dried, the fruit is known as a peppercorn. When fresh and fully mature, it is approximately 5 millimetres (0.20 in) in diameter, dark red, and, like all drupes, contains a single seed. Peppercorns, and the ground pepper derived from them, may be described simply as pepper, or more precisely as black pepper, green pepper and white pepper.
Coffea
Coffea is a genus of flowering plants whose seeds, called coffee beans, are used to make coffee. It is a member of the familyRubiaceae. They are shrubs or small trees native to tropical and southern Africa and tropical Asia. Coffee ranks as one of the world’s most valuable and widely traded commodity crops and is an important export product of several countries, including those in Central and South America, the Caribbean and Africa.
Brussels Sprouts
The Brussels sprout is a member of the Gemmifera Group of cabbages, grown for its edible buds. The leafy green vegetables are typically 2.5–4 cm (0.98–1.6 in) in diameter and look like miniature cabbages. The Brussels sprout has long been popular in Brussels, Belgium, and may have originated and gained its name there.
Artichokes
The globe artichoke is a variety of a species of thistle cultivated as a food. The edible portion of the plant consists of the flower buds before the flowers come into bloom. The budding artichoke flower-head is a cluster of many budding small flowers (an inflorescence) together with many bracts, on an edible base. Once the buds bloom the structure changes to a coarse, barely edible form.
Rambutan
The rambutan is a medium-sized tropical tree in the family Sapindaceae. The name also refers to the fruit produced by this tree. The rambutan is native to Malay-Indonesian region, and other regions of tropicalSoutheast Asia. It is closely related to several other edible tropical fruits including the lychee, longan, and mamoncillo.
Finger Citron
Fingered citron, is an unusually shaped citron variety whose fruit is segmented into finger-like sections, resembling a human hand. In Japanese it is called bushukan’. Fingered citron fruit is very fragrant and is used predominantly in China and Japan for perfuming rooms and personal items such as clothing.
Kiwi
The kiwifruit often shortened to kiwi in many parts of the world, is the edible berry of a woody vine in the genus Actinidia. Kiwifruit is native to southern China where it has been declared a National Fruit of China.

Black pepper is not a fruit as such. brussels sprouts is not afruit. In my understanding fruit can be eaten without cooking. Why was mangusteen left out. For anyone interested there is a story that cashew is the only fruit created by the devil. The friut looks and smells wonderful and the devil showed it to God to show off what he could do as well as God, God looked at it and said how are you going to propagate it without a seed. So the devil stuck the nut out side

LLegumes are great sources of fat, protein and carbohydrates. Different varieties contain varying amounts of these nutrients, with beans, nuts, peas and lentils all having unique nutritional profiles. Although these foods are a staple of vegetarian diets, non-vegetarians can also benefit from eating more legumes. For example, replacing red meat with a serving of black beans lowers your fat intake while boosting your fiber and protein intakes.

Beans
The most common varieties of legumes are beans. These include adzuki beans, black beans, soybeans, anasazi beans, fava beans, garbanzo beans (chickpeas), kidney beans and lima beans. These foods are high in protein and carbohydrates but low in fat. For example, 1 cup of cooked adzuki beans contains 17.3 grams of protein, 57 grams of carbohydrates, 294 calories and only 0.2 grams of fat. In comparison, 1 cup of cooked chickpeas contains 14.5 grams of protein, 45 grams of carbohydrates, 269 calories and 4.3 grams of fat. Because of their assortment of flavors and textures, a mixture of lightly-seasoned, cooked-then-cooled beans makes a flavorful, nutritious and filling salad.
Nuts
Some legumes are inappropriately called "nuts." The most common example is the peanut, with other examples including soy nuts and carob nuts. Similar to other nuts, these legumes contain high concentrations of protein, fat and carbohydrates. For example, 1 cup of dry-roasted soy nuts contains 68.1 grams of protein, 37.2 grams of fat, 56.3 grams of carbohydrates and 776 calories. One cup of dry-roasted peanuts is much lower in protein and higher in fat, with 34.6 grams of protein, 31.4 grams of carbohydrates, 854 calories and 72.5 grams of fat. When eating soy or peanuts, choose dry-roasted and unsalted varieties to avoid the high fat and sodium content of oil-roasted, salted nuts.
Peas
A number of legumes are labeled as peas, including green peas, snow peas, snap peas, split peas and black-eyed peas. Similar to beans, peas contain high concentrations of carbohydrates and protein but little fat. For example, 1 cup of boiled green peas contains 8.6 grams of protein, 25 grams of carbohydrates, 134 calories and 0.4 gram of fat. Split peas contain higher concentrations of protein and carbohydrates but a similar amount of fat. One cup of boiled split peas contains 16.4 grams of protein, 41.4 grams of carbohydrates, 231 calories and only 0.8 grams of fat. As most varieties have a naturally sweet flavor, peas are great as a side-dish, snack, addition to a stir-fry or topping on a salad.
Lentils
Legumes that are classified as nuts, beans and peas are approximately spherical in shape. With their flat, round shape, lentils differ from this general pattern. Whether yellow, orange, green, brown or black, the nutritional profile of lentils does not change with their color. However, sprouted lentils differ from non-sprouted lentils in their nutritional content. One cup of uncooked sprouted lentils contains 6.9 grams of protein, 17.1 grams of carbohydrates, 82 calories and 0.4 gram of fat. As they are much denser, non-sprouted lentils provide larger amounts of these nutrients. One cup of uncooked, non-sprouted lentils contains 49.5 grams of protein, 115.4 grams of carbohydrates, 2 grams of fat and 678 calories. Although the non-sprouted variety is more common in cooked dishes, both varieties can serve as the basis for Indian dal curries.

THIS Type of RAW HONEY Kills Every Kind of Bacteria Scientists Could Throw At It (Even the Super-Bugs!) ManukaHoney
THIS Type of RAW HONEY Kills Every Kind of Bacteria Scientists Could Throw At It (Even the Super-Bugs!)
FacebookTwitterGoogle+Pinterest
Here at Healthy Holistic Living, we search the web for health content to share with you. This article was shared with permission from our friends at AltHealthWorks.com
The health benefits of raw, unprocessed honey are well known, but in Australia, scientists recently made a startling discovery – that one particular, obscure type of honey is capable of killing just about everything scientists throw at it, including some of the worst bacteria known to man. The findings were published in the European Journal of Clinical Microbiology and Infectious Diseases (June 2009 edition), and could hold special significance at a time when many of the world’s top antibiotics are failing, especially against resistant “superbugs.”
The honey in question is known as manuka honey, which is produced in New Zealand and also goes by the name of jelly bush honey.
The honey has become so popular in the past few years that shortages have been reported and fake products have been sold, leading New Zealand manuka producers to seek trademark protection (similar to French champagne or Scottish whiskey for example). It’s easy to see why now that the secret is out about this honey’s incredible health benefits.

Manuka Honey Kills MRSA, Other Superbugs
Manuka honey is created by bees foraging on the nectar of Leptospermum Scoparium, the New Zealand manuka bush, as well as tea trees native only to Australia and New Zealand.
In the aforementioned studies, Australian researchers found that the honey killed every bacteria or pathogen it was tested on, according to a report by The Australian. The honey can be applied topically to help fight against infections of the skin, cuts and insect bites, or taken internally.
Manuka HoneyThe most exciting difference with the manuka honey that was tested is that none of superbugs killed by the honey were able to build up immunity, a common problem with today’s antibiotics.
“New antibiotics tend to have short shelf lives, as the bacteria they attack quickly become resistant,” said Dr. Dee Carter of the University of Sydney’s School of Molecular and Microbial Biosciences. “Many large pharmaceutical companies have abandoned antibiotic production because of the difficulty of recovering costs. Developing effective alternatives could therefore save many lives.”
According to Dr. Carter the manuka honey contains a compound called methyglyoxal, that combines with other unknown compounds to cause “multi-system failure” that destroys the bacteria.
Where to Find Manuka Honey Manuka honey is now sold in health food stores and online, although the supply levels have fluctuated in recent years and fake honey scams have been documented. When looking for manuka honey it is best to look for one that is UMF certified.
The term UMF stands for Unique Manuka Factor, which is the phytochemical property derived from the manuka bushes that gives it its unique properties. This term is regulated by the Unique Manuka Factor Honey Association of New Zealand and a handful of certified manuka products can be found on Amazon.com.
The brand Comvita manuka honey is available on Amazon and is UMF certified. One particular customer on Amazon said that it this type of honey helped to erase their MRSA:
I had done a fair amount of research when a friend of ours got MRSA, and then, unfortunately, I got it too., said user JoshuaOne9 on Amazon. Thankfully, I had already done the research so I knew exactly what to do. As soon as I saw the red bump (thinking the first day that it was a mosquito bite) I scratched it, but the second day I realized that it had to be something else. My husband immediately knew what it was since we had been dealing with our friend’s case of MRSA. I got my hands on this Manuka honey and put on the area of skin that was affected and then it is very important that you cover it with a bandaid. Within hours I felt relief and within a few days it was completely gone…
While further research needs to be done, it’s safe to say that manuka honey shows plenty of promise in defeating one of the biggest health challenges faced by humanity in the 21st century, and this research should not be taken lightly.

Olive Leaf
Rosemary (Rosmarinus Officinalis)
Oregano has been used for centuries, originally by the Greeks, for curing a variety of ailments. The ailments that oregano was used to treat in ancient times include a vast range of conditions from convulsions to heart failure. In the 19th century, herbal doctors proscribed oregano as a general well being tonic as well as to promote menstruation. The name oregano originates from the two Greek words oros and ganos. Oregano is also known by its other common name, wild marjoram and marjoram. The scientific name for oregano is Origanum vulgare.
Medical Uses for Oregano in Present Times
Antifungal properties Today, studies have demonstrated the oregano does possess many beneficial properties. Oregano has been used for the treatment of chronic candidiasis through its antifungal properties. Ideally for this particular ailment, enteric coated capsules are recommended to ensure that the tablets pass through the stomach and disintegrate in the intestine.
Digestive system
Oregano supplements can also be used to treat indigestion, heartburn, and low stomach acidity. Oregano aids by reducing gas in the stomach as well as soothing a churning stomach.
Antimicrobial properties
The antimicrobial and antifungal properties of oregano are attributed to thymol and carvacol. Clinical studies have shown oregano to be extremely effective in inhibiting the growth of Candida albicans. Additional clinical studies demonstrate that oregano oil has anti-microbial properties against a large array of bacteria including Escherichia coli, Klebsiella pneumoniae, Salmonella enterica and Staphylococcus aureus.
What Provides Oregano with its Healing Properties?
This perennial herb grows approximately 2 feet in height. It is able to be cultivated worldwide, but originated in the Mediterranean. For herbal treatments, the leaves of the oregano plants as well as the volatile oil are used for medical purposes. Dried oregano contains a multitude of constituents, including approximately 3% volatile essential oil. In addition to the volatile oil, the other constituents include:
-carvacrol -thymol -borneol -rosmarinic acid -triterpenoids, which are ursolic and oleanolic acid -sterols -vitamin A -vitamin C
How to Use Oregano for Medical Benefits
Oregano can be administered in a variety of ways to obtain its beneficial effects. A common way to administer oregano is by steeping a tea. The tea can be made with fresh or dried oregano. Approximately 1 to 2 teaspoons, which is 5 to 10 grams, should be steeped in hot water for approximately 10 minutes. The recommended dosage of this tea is up to three times daily.
Oregano oil can be applied topically for treatment of microbial infections, such as athlete's foot or other fungal based infections. The oil needs to be diluted by 50% or more prior to application and it can be applied twice daily. The oil should not be used internally as this has not been studied from a safety aspect.
Oregano can also be taken as tablets, enteric coated tablets or capsules, which can be purchased from herbal supplement stores or online. Oregano capsules and tablets will disintegrate in the stomach, whilst enteric coated tablets will disintegrate in the intestines.
How to manage food safety complaints
One of the most feared possibilities for your F&B establishment is an outbreak of food poisoning associated with your food. Though it may be an unfortunate event, it is crunch time and you cannot afford to wallow in self-pity. Speed and responsiveness is key, especially in a digitally connected world where such bad publicity can spread like wildfire on social media platforms. You have to take these steps in ensuring that there is minimal reputational damage caused to your establishment.
How to manage food safety complaints
Step 1:
Upon receiving a food poisoning complaint, immediately gather information about the customer (name, contact, email) and details about his/her meal transaction (with receipt, if possible).
Step 2:
Try to extract information from the customer in order to do a food recall – this will help you track the food over the past 24 hours. Remember to be sincere and concerned when asking. E.g. if the customer is experiencing great discomfort, volunteer to bring him/her to the hospital, if necessary.
Step 3:
At the same time, immediately instruct your kitchen supervisor to do a food recall, whether the food is cooked or raw or whether it has been served or not. Freeze all operations in order to prevent further escalation of food poisoning cases.
How to manage food safety complaints
Step 4:
Using the information gathered, work backwards and trace it to the root of the problem – whether it’s from the serving, plating, cooking, preparation or storage.
Step 5:
Form a crisis management team and assign a spokesperson to handle any questions from the public or media. Preferably, this person should be someone senior, who knows the business and has good communication skills.
How to manage food safety complaints
Step 6:
Be transparent at all times, providing your team and the media with constant updates and prevent them from speculating and generating more unnecessary bad publicity. Work closely with any relevant health authority or food safety auditor to find the cause of the problem.
Step 7:
Once the problem has been identified, immediately apologise to the general public and promise them that corrective steps and preventive measures are in place to ensure that such hiccups will never happen again. Continue communicating with the health authorities and seek their advice on how to improve your food safety process.
Step 8:
Moving forward, consider engaging 3rd party food auditors to audit your establishment to ensure that there are no possible red flags and also to inform the general public that your establishment is serious in upholding the highest standards of food safety.
Of course, the best-case scenario is for no such case to happen at all. In order to do that, everybody has a part to play in ensuring that food is not contaminated during any point of the food handling process.

The all-natural recipe we recommend in this article was made by a Russian doctor, ophthalmologist and surgeon nearly half a century ago. As the treatment had high efficacy, the doctor strongly advised all his patients suffering from vision problems including intraocular pressure to use this powerful natural remedy.
The recipe is easy to make; it asks for simple, but extremely beneficial ingredients such as aloe vera gel, walnuts, lemons and honey. 100 gr. Aloe juice
500 gr. crushed walnuts
300 gr. honey
juice of 3-4 lemons
Directions:
Blend all the ingredients at high speed.
Use:
You need to drink this remedy every day, a tablespoon three times a day, half an hour before your meal. You should take it until you feel your vision is improved and you no longer have the need for it. Aside from being an excellent remedy for your eye health, this remedy is a real metabolism booster and can positively affect your overall health.
Note:
It’s important to know that Aloe Vera Juice is not recommended for people affected with acute kidney disease, GI tract problems, inflammation of the female reproductive system, tuberculosis, hemorrhoids and pregnant women in the last trimester. Also remember that the plant shouldn’t be more than 2-3 years old.

My Olive Tree
Page Liked · Yesterday ·
My Olive Tree was birthed out of a heart to support the land and the people of Israel.
It was in 2004 when I first sat down with the then, Finance Minister, now Prime Minister, Benjamin Netanyahu, and we discussed a huge humanitarian aid initiative that I was involved in—a project that was bringing in over 20 million dollars worth of aid into the nation of Israel.
It was an enormous undertaking, and the Finance Minister was grateful and polite when he opened up to express his heartfelt concern for the people of Israel. You see, he did not want Israel to become a country dependent on charity, but rather, a country that prospers through economic independence.
It was a few years later while attending a meeting in Israel, when the “concept” of My Olive Tree was presented to us...
My first reaction was, “No way!”
But the Israelis in the meeting eagerly said, “You can plant a million olive trees… a plan to help make Israel economically independent… You can do this!”
My answer again was, “No… this is not for me.” And then I felt the prompting of the Lord to step outside of our meeting place. He then began to show me a vision of a blue and green globe, and said, “Do you see all of those little green spots? I planted all of those without your help.”
That was when My Olive Tree began… and it has since grown and is still growing!
Today, through the help of thousands of people around the world, we have planted over 20,000 partner sponsored olive trees throughout Israel—a far cry from the HUGE vision of one million—but we are diligently moving forward to reach that goal!
When My Olive Tree first began sponsoring olive trees, we planted in the Galilee area.
It was exciting to see the vision unfold and for our partners to LITERALLY take root in the Holy Land! And then a few years later the opportunity became available to expand our efforts and begin planting in the Negev Desert. Again, thousands of sponsors rallied together to leave a living legacy and a living memorial in Israel. Like David Ben-Gurion you all jumped on the chance to be pioneers!
The first Prime Minister of Israel, David Ben-Gurion was focused on breathing life into the Negev Desert… and you as our sponsors have shown that you share his vision and have hence breathed new life into the goal of sponsoring one million trees.
You heard Isaiah’s cry and Ben-Gurion’s cry, and you answered back with resounding support!
It is incredible to know that our supporters, that’s YOU, are helping fulfill the goals of the projects...
…by bringing the wastelands to life—expanding the greenbelt into the desert to create livable habitats for families to return to the land of their Father.
Your gift is literally taking root in the land of #Israel, saying, “You belong. Through faith, I belong. We belong!”
You see, more than anything, your sponsorships give hope and speak of friendship and solidarity. Your trees say to Israel and her people: I see you right now and I believe in your history—your past, your present, your future, and your right to exist.
Your tree is a statement that you realize Israel’s future—acknowledging her potential—her promise.
Your tree is not just a gift for today. Your tree is a living legacy—a living memorial.
A few years ago My Olive Tree was asked to plant several very large mature olive trees (30-40 years old) in a special place in #Jerusalem called the King’s Valley. This area in the valley, which is part of the larger Kidron Valley, located east of King David’s palace, is believed to have once been a garden for the ancient King’s of Israel. And perhaps most importantly, it is also very symbolic that this area is on the hills below the Mount of Olives where the Messiah expected to return.

FATTOM – time to fight your enemies!
There are a few factors that contribute to the growth of microorganisms on food. If we are able to counter and prevent these factors, we are able to fight our enemies.
Food
Food
Many microorganisms grow on food rich in protein (poultry, fish, dairy, eggs) and carbohydrates (cooked rice, pasta). These foods have a high chance of contamination and may give rise to foodborne illnesses.
Action: Pay more attention to these categories of food.
Acid
Acid
Low acid food (poultry, fish, dairy, eggs) are considered potentially hazardous.
Action: Cook food at high temperature. Check expiry dates. Look out for dents, bulges, leaks or rust in low-acid canned food (luncheon meat, baked beans).
Temperature
Temperature
Microorganisms grow fastest in the Temperature Danger Zone (TDZ) of 5°C to 56.7°C. This TDZ range includes room temperature as well.
Action: Do not leave food at room temperature for too long (e.g. rice and starchy foods). Store foods at the correct temperature.
Time
Time
After 4 hours, the microorganisms on the food may produce toxins that make the food unsafe for consumption.
Action: Food should not be kept at the TDZ for more than 4 hours.
Oxygen
Oxygen
Microorganisms require oxygen to grow.
Action: Cover food at all times.
Moisture
Moisture
Microorganisms grow faster in food with high water content (fresh poultry, meat, fish and raw eggs).
Action: Ensure these foods are stored at the proper temperatures with reduced moisture.
By understanding your enemies and what you can do to prevent them, you’ll keep your food and diners safe.
