This is a project I have been working on for several months now, of a catch-all manual for times when modern infrastructure fails.

Infrastructure supports some people more than others, and I have always wanted a manual that never assumed I had everything necessary just lying around, so to try and account for as many situations as possible, this starts at the most absolute basics of gardening and planting, provides definitions, and hopefully is easily understandable.

Especially now during the pandemic, people have been showing more interest in gardening and being anxious about food in the future, so for the last month or two I’ve prioritized a section about farming crops. It is not a comprehensive list of crops but it is meant to hopefully explain how to grow and harvest several staple crops from a variety of climates, regardless of hemisphere.

The PDFs are intended to be shared and downloaded freely, so long as authorship is not intentionally obscured. As I write more, those will also be available online, and once enough are written, they will be compiled into a physical book in case, you know, the internet or electric infrastructure were to fail and the PDFs couldn’t be accessed.

Please share this post and the website around, and I will try to update it as frequently as possible, understanding that I am one person trying to fact check myself while writing about things I may only tangentially understand at first. Where possible, I will consult professionals in their fields, but I’m confident enough about farming (hello am on farm) to put this one up after running it by my Dept of Ag mother to see if anything seemed wildly off.

The PDFs may be updated periodically as more information becomes available, made clearer, or something is remembered to be put in which wasn’t previously thought of (I will be adding a composting section to the garden section in the future, for example.) but in the meantime, please feel free to share, especially with people who are interested in planting their food, even if they do not have backyards or fields, and hopefully sometime in the future I will return with a more complete book of how to do Literally Everything From Scratch.

A Little Information:

Coconut Oil: Coconut oil was found to reduce protein loss in hair that was undamaged, bleached, chemically treated and UV exposed. It is mostly made up of a medium-chain fatty acid called lauric acid which gives coconut oil a long, straight structure, which is more easily absorbed into the hair shaft.

It could help you grow your hair out by Moisterizing and reducing breakage of hair, prevent damage to your hair when wet and protecting it from environmental damage from the wind, sun and smoke.

Coconut oil can help to prevent lice, gives your hair UV protection, treats dandruff and prevents hair loss.

 Neem Oil: Neem oil can treat dandruff, lice and eczema and is an anti-inflamitory. It is rich in fatty acids, limonoids, vitamin E, triglycerides, antioxidants and calcium. Neem oil should always be diluted with a carrier oil such as jojoba, olive, or coconut oil prior to topical application.

It could help you grow your hair out since neem has high fatty acid content. This oil is a good remedy for those that suffer from hair thinning and balding. Not just that, it will also make your hair shine. Neem oil is even helpful in preventing excess sebum production that blocks hair growth and leads to hair thinning.

Neem oil is effective against several human fungi including candida, which is one of the major cause of dandruff. When you have dandruff there is some underlying inflammation that makes the scalp red and irritated.

Neem has a strong, pungent odor similar to sulfuric garlic.

 Lavender Oil: Lavender oils uses have a wide range from getting rid of acne to promoting healthy locks of hair.

Lavender has antimicrobial properties which prevents bacteria and fungi growth. This means that it can be particularly helpful for sensitive scalps, as it prevents itchiness and dandruff. Lavender oil can also help your hair grow stronger and faster than normal by increasing circulation to the hair follicles.

Lavender nourishes the hair by moisturizing it while leaving it silky soft and smooth, it can also help with hair frizz.
