#Dehydrated fruits

[agriclubsblog]

The start of winter is a thrilling time to relish the warm sunshine on cool mornings and end the year with festive treats. But winter also carries suffering. Rapid changes in weather, dry air, and increased coughs and colds are ordinary during this time of year. When encompassing healthy foods in your diet, be aware of the cold weather and the illnesses it brings. Adding dry fruit or dehydrated fruits to your diet in winter can be particularly helpful.

PSA: i keep seeing posts about staying cool in extreme heat that include advice like "gatorade is bad actually!" and "don't drink fruit juice it'll just dehydrate you!" and neither of these are true!

regarding fruit juice: there's apparently a misconception that Any Sugar At All will dehydrate you, and that's simply not true. yes, sugar will make you pee more when consumed in large amounts, but 1) the natural sugar in fruits won't do this to you 2) great news! a lot of fruit juices exist without any added sugar in them! 3) honestly even having a glass of the fruit juice with added sugar won't completely dehydrate you as long as you're also drinking water throughout the day. if its hot you deserve a cold treat of a drink!!! can't go wrong with fruit juice!!!

regarding gatorade: maybe this isn't an every day drink, but guess what: if it's 110F/40C or hotter outside, and you don't have AC, or you're moving around a lot outside of the AC, and you're sweating buckets: that's when you drink a gatorade.

gatorade exists to replenish all the electrolytes (salt) and glucose (sugar) that you sweat out. YES it is meant for athletes to drink during intensive work outs and not necessarily for people who aren't doing that kind of exercise. BUT GUESS WHAT! when you're sweating buckets because you had to walk to the bus in extreme heat, that's intensive exercise. please feel free to drink a gatorade after that! that's its intended use case!!!!

no: neither of these drinks should be a total replacement for water. but drinking a lot of water and then treating yourself to a fruit juice with lunch is a good idea!!! drinking a gatorade becuase you just had to walk for 20 minutes in the heat is a good idea!!!

Please Stop Spreading Misinformation About Drinks!!! It's fine if you drink things that aren't water!!!! Yes you should probably always be drinking water but drinking something else As Well isn't going to hurt you!!!! okay!!!! its fine!!!!!!

honestly so long as you are consistently getting Any (non-alcoholic) fluids in you, you're doing great!!!!!! okay!!!! i love you stay safe <3

Spiced Cranberry Pear Fruit Leather! 🍐

Sweetened with Orange Spice Tea infused honey from work 🍊

I cooked down the cranberries and honey a bit until it was more of a compote, so that I could extract more out of it. The flavor is perfectly tart, like candy 😍

the thing about making your own snacks is that once they run out you have to make more.....

solarpunk farmer checklist

buy land without a well for super cheap because no baby boomers can fathom what i'm about to tell you next

next you need solar panels, wind turbines and an economical energy storage system, and an amospheric dehumidifier and filter system to draw from humidity and render it potable for you and your farm. [ref]

finally if you bought desert land, it's time to get your Stanley Yelnats hat on and dig some massive holes because ag plants can live well outside their 'growing zone' in the desert that way as seen above

...one interesting unique idea I've also seen explored, that could be good in some aspects, is using bamboo as a living trellis that any vining productive other plants can grow up and into like jasmine, tomatoes, strawberries, grapes (?), etc. The bamboo grows out fast and big, and the vining plants do well to keep up and utilize the strength of bamboo as a skeletal scaffolding, maybe using a fruit picker's extended basket for grabbing the stuff but you might have to line it with a finer mesh to avoid dropping smaller berries or tomatos, but here's a low-effort way to get an extremely productive yield out of just sun and water

Of course on upwards from there you can build real scaffolding and real ag architecture as seen in video etc but that's a lot more labor and material intensive than watchin some bamboo get super tall and watching your tomatoes climb all over it and flourish like crazy

additionally there's all this going on with the tree grafting, looks mad fun imho
