Today we remember Rosa Parks who calls us into a holy kind of commitment to justice as we keep going in our pursuit of care for non-human and human creations alike.
Most of us know Rosa Parks for her involvement in the American civil rights movement of the 1960s, but did you know that Rosa Parks was a vegetarian? ⁠

Not only that, Parks had committed herself to eating vegetarian for over 40 years after a childhood of poverty induced poor nutrition. Parks sights health concerns as a prompt for her choice to abstain from eating meat and to eat vegetables instead. This can be a controversial take for some vegetarians and vegans who believe these plant-based choices must be for animals first. ⁠

Many Black activists have sought out plant-based, meat-free lifestyles in order to fight back against health disparities caused by systemic injustice and the stresses of oppression. Some of these injustices include disproportionately high presence of food deserts and high rates of diabetes in Black communities compared to whites. Parks is one of many Black activists, past and present, who took concern for her health and the health of the community and expanded that to include concern for other living beings. We learn from Rosa Parks how caring for oneself can have ripple effects in caring for others.⁠

"The only way to secure, on a middle term basis, food security for maybe 9 billion people (no problem, there is enough potential on this planet to feed everyone), is if we would shift on a global base to vegan agriculture and with Biocyclic agriculture it would be even easier to reach the goal.

Because, this may sound strange, but we already have the first indications (and very strong ones) that by producing and by using compost on a large scale for producing agricultural crops and vegetables, we can increase yields per acre, up to double.

This is not too much, what I say. Already research has been done at the Agricultural University in Athens which proved that industrial tomatoes and sweet potatoes, which are demanding cultivations, doubled their yields by being planted in what we call biocyclic humus soil. So this is a special category of compost. It is not comparable to what we normally call compost. Compost is a very good substrate which has to be used as much as possible in agriculture and it’s giving some input of nutrients and some other physical characteristics of soil improvement.

But when you continue to produce compost and you ripen it, even for some years, then you receive a product that is almost unknown- but it exists almost everywhere on Earth, but in very small quantities so it has not been observed up until now. This is a completely carbon stabilized form of organic matter. This carbon stabilization within this product leads to a completely different characteristic of the product, so we can no longer compare compost with humus soil. But humus soil is produced out of compost. So this is the very interesting point and subject of scientific research at the moment: What are the circumstances under which we can influence or increase the speed where this process is going on – from compost to humus soil.

One of the most striking characteristics of humus soil is that it is very rich in nutrients but these nutritional elements are not water-soluble anymore. So this means a tremendous advantage against every kind of fertilization. Because one of the main problems we face in fertilization is that a big a part of the nutrients are washed out by water or are blown into the air and cannot be used by the plants.

In humus soil, we have a nutrients stored in such a way that they cannot be washed out by the water." -Dr. Johannes Eisenbach, Panhellenic Biocyclic Vegan Network

🚨Rescue Alert🚨
In the sanctuary world it seems like you celebrate the victories (Jude’s home!❤️) for about ten seconds before you’re on to the next thing. We have the opportunity to help this little goat baby pictured here and so we are taking it. Although you can’t tell from looking at her she has a severe cleft palate. There is a rather large visible hole in her upper palate which is going to require surgery. This baby is otherwise seemingly healthy and we know she deserves a chance but we will need your help to make this happen! Thankfully we have a very generous $3000 match to get the initial assessment and hospitalization process started. So right now if you donate $5 to her care it is like giving $10. Let’s get this baby (we are calling her Meg❤️) the care she deserves!
We would like to give a should out to (give them a follow!) for connecting us to this baby girl and for just being awesome! And also to our amazing volunteer Michael Rutt for helping out so much!❤️

Thank you! And we promise lots of Jude videos later today!❤️
