cultivating yakon makes your life better: you learn about an(other) amazing plant, you get the better body by working the earth and eating better food.
all you need is free time, free earth, and some yacón seeds or rhizome shoots:
rhizome
you can also replant last year’s stem with some rhizome left.
unlike potatoes or topinambur, you can’t just leave bits in the ground and expect them to grow by themselves the next season. instead, it’s essential to find them a good place over winter: either in the cellar, or as a houseplant.
i never stand in line at supermarkets. instead, i harvest 0km – negative waste food – multiple times a week, if i want to. me and my friends can’t possibly eat it all.
also, i’m finding free, wild, healthier plants all year round.

where tropical meets rural
Here is some newer stuff:
no oil crisis
Olive season – so they throw out olive oil…
extended chestnut season
Posted before this i have not:
can you find the missing egg?
some more Best-of-s:
highly haram
t’was me humble share of an evening worth mentioning. the odd things (center) on top of the eggs are Maracuya, the seeds even sprouted. the cookie were shid, i fed them to birds. the Plum Schnaps/Slivovica in the back actually were expired! i spiked some of it with hot chili fingers i got from a friend. washing machine for size comparison.
i followed a rabbit down a tunnel, and found the places, where every day is Easter day! One man’s trash, another one’s treasure – one supermarket bin, one week of food.
the rest of the west
Altmetall
All this toxic metal i gave to people who appreciated it.
bag of bread
The eternal cycle of white bread…
some more bread rain
… turning into new white bread. (more bread shots at the bottom)
But don’t panic – it’s all organic (matter):
Tomatensaison
I love how the colors change over the course of the year. I actually matter the plastic it’s wrapped in. But helps to keep the waste fresh.
Bananensaison
Must be a banana-country i’m in…
… but not always vegan…
bin of milk&honey
If it’s on the shelves, it’s just a matter of time before it’s in the bins – I consider it ethically vegan (“freegan”) then.
The following section documents crimes against humanity:
bin of bread
Not good enough for human consumption – because some rule-abiding bread-winner lost all sense of deceny.
role model
The deed of another capitalist role model… your family must be very proud of what became of you…
same bin, same scene.
Another day, same result.
bread bin at low tide
Must be low tide in the bakery… still, more bread than a person should eat in a week.
supermarket’s logo
I wouldn’t recommend eating bread out of the bins.
