“If we’re really fully observing the Shmita, and we’re not cultivating in this year, how else do we derive food? We have to eat in this year! Traditionally, people would have spent the 6 years leading up to Shmita orienting around how it is that they would sustain the entire society in the 7th. That brings in my permaculture design brain: How do you design systems that are diverse, that don’t overly rely on annual agriculture, that have flourishing perennial systems? Perennials are things that fruit on their own every year. There’s so many fruit trees, berries, fruiting bushes, tubers that grow, there’s a whole world other than just annual agriculture. But I think because we’re not necessarily connected to the earth anymore we underestimate some of these foods.”
