The Parable of the Weeds

24 He presented another parable to them: “The kingdom of heaven is like a man who sowed good seed in his field. 25 But while people were sleeping, his enemy came and sowed weeds among the wheat and went away. 26 When the plants sprouted and produced heads of grain, the weeds also appeared. 27 The servants of the owner came and said to him, ‘Sir, did you not sow good seed in your field? Where did the weeds come from?’ 28 He said to them, ‘An enemy did this.’ The servants asked him, ‘Do you want us to go and gather up the weeds?’ 29 ‘No,’ he answered, ‘because when you gather up the weeds, you might pull up the wheat along with them. 30 Let both grow together until the harvest, and at harvest time I will tell the reapers, “First, gather up the weeds, bind them in bundles, and burn them. Then, gather the wheat into my barn.”’”

Mustard Seed and Yeast

31 He presented another parable to them: “The kingdom of heaven is like a mustard seed, which a man took and planted in his field. 32 It is one of the smallest of seeds. But when it grows, it is larger than the other plants and becomes a tree, so that the birds of the air come and nest in its branches.”

33 He spoke another parable to them: “The kingdom of heaven is like yeast, which a woman took and mixed into a bushel of flour until the whole batch was leavened.”

34 Jesus spoke all these things in parables to the crowds. He did not speak to them without telling a parable. 35 This was to fulfill what was spoken through the prophet:

I will open my mouth in parables,

I will utter things hidden since the foundation of the world.

Jesus Explains the Parable of the Weeds

36 Then Jesus sent the people away and went into the house. His disciples came to him and said, “Explain to us the parable of the weeds in the field.”

37 He answered them, “The one who sows the good seed is the Son of Man. 38 The field is the world. The good seeds are the sons of the kingdom. The weeds are the sons of the Evil One. 39 The enemy who sowed them is the Devil. The harvest is the end of the world. The reapers are angels. 40 Therefore, just as the weeds are gathered up and burned with fire, so it will be at the end of the world. 41 The Son of Man will send out his angels, and they will pull out of his kingdom everything that causes sin and those who continue to break the law. 42 The angels will throw them into the fiery furnace where there will be weeping and gnashing of teeth. 43 Then the righteous will shine like the sun in the kingdom of their Father.

one of my long-term goals is to integrate more African leafy vegetables into my everyday diet and diversify my food sources by filling my home garden with indigenous, edible plants. While doing some reading today, I came across things about how food security and plant diversity is threatened by capitalism. This reminded me of that speech from The Fall of the House of Usher:

Anyway, I'm investigating how to do more growing and eating myself so I'll document how things go as it happens.

I'll be trying to work through a few options I've found on a local seed bank and doing variations of recipes I find with heritage plant substitutions.

The Onoto Tree: A Venezuelan Memoir of Rain, Family, and Tradition

Memoir: The Beauty of Onoto and Memories of Venezuela When I was in Venezuela, the rains were always a welcome respite from the relentless heat. As much as the torrential downpours could be overwhelming, they brought with them a sense of renewal, life, and color. In my mind, every rainy season in Venezuela feels as if it were marked by a certain rhythm, a dance between the sky and the earth,…

Barong-barong / Native Chestnut (or talakatak) Type: Seeds, nuts. Preparation: Can be boiled or roasted. Mature fruits with seeds are preferred because young barong-barong are more astringent and bitter due to tannins. Region: Palawan, Laguna

It's been hot and dry and you'd never know we live in a temperate rainforest by the weather. Fortunately we're on year four of intensive composting and tree planting, and grey water from the bath and dish rinsing gets syphoned out to the garden via a cheap bit of plastic brewer's tubing. This means the garden pretty much never dries out and everything, including the stand of douglas fir trees down the slope from the garden, is thriving.

My father in law is an AVID gardener and beekeeper. This was one of the first things I learned about him when I started dating my husband. So, for our first Christmas, I gifted him heritage glass gem corn as a gift. It sealed a pact between our houses that was confirmed when I married his son 2 years later. 🌽💖

How do you preserve the food from your garden so it doesn't go bad before you can eat it?

You are wildly underestimating my ability to go fucking feral about fresh produce. I don't think I even brought snap peas into the house last year. Just ate them right off the vine.

Though I did end up freezing the strawberries/blue berries as they ripened, but even those were consumed within the week.

The only tough one was the potatoes, but that was resolved by just foisting potatoes on everyone I knew. Much more welcome than Zucchinis.

Our 2024 garden: Heritage Harvest order is in

Today was a day of running around, starting in the afternoon. We had a dump run to do, and I had to wait until they opened. From there, it was a stop at the post office, then off to my mother’s to drop some Christmas stuff off, before I headed to the pharmacy to get more mineral oil. The girls cleaned the cats’ ears while I was out, using the last of our mineral oil to do it, and we have another…

Saving seeds and participating in growing our own food is a healing practice that allows us to reconnect with nature, cultural foodways, and increase self sufficiency.
