Step 2: Register for “Intro to Easy, No-Till Gardening” here
In this online workshop, Will from Barbarian Farm and the Institute of Barbarian Books will talk about the meaning (and challenges) of small-scale farming to the cultivation of spaces for radical politics in rural Japan.
In addition to walking participants through an easy to implement method of no-till farming that he has been experimenting with for the last few years, he will reflect on the short visit that he made to Om Sleiman farm in Bil’in, Palestine and how it has shaped his views on farm sovereignty struggles in Japan.
Finally, he will discuss the relationship between Barbarian Farms and the Institute of Barbarian Books, which is an independent print shop, small publisher, and library that has played an important role in building pro-Palestinian, anti-zionist community in Hiroshima, Japan.
