Hunza Garden

This is part 2 of our series on terraced farming.  Dr Jensen was equally inspired by the people of the Hunza Valley not only for their healthy diet and longevity but also for their resourcefulness.  They farmed an area that was was abundant in nothing but rocks.  Similarly, Dr Jensen named the rockiest garden of the Hidden Valley the "Hunza Garden".  We do have some native vegetation that makes it's homes among the rocks and hard soil, mostly succulents, native grasses and of course weeds.  Which leads me to another similarity between HV and Hunza, everything is done by hand.  Hunzakuts had a very "labor-intensive culture" and we too have experienced clearing, planting and cultivation all done by our callused yet loving hands.  Lastly the Hunzakuts were crazy about apricots and mulberries, both of which thrive abundantly on the property.  They dried the apricots for winter consumption, a note right out of Dr. Jensen's books.  The more we learn the more we realize Hidden Valley is a melting pot of cultures from around the world and everything was done with purpose.
