Kes\u00e4kuun #suuntanaomavaraisuus bloggareiden postausaiheena on omavaraisbloggaajan p\u00e4iv\u00e4. Mit\u00e4 kaikkea p\u00e4iv\u00e4\u00e4n mahtuu ja millaista omavarainen el\u00e4m\u00e4 on k\u00e4yt\u00e4nn\u00f6ss\u00e4? Meill\u00e4 viljely ei ole p\u00e4\u00e4elinkeinomme, k\u00e4ymme kodin ulkopuolella p\u00e4iv\u00e4t\u00f6iss\u00e4. Omavaraisuus onkin minulle l\u00e4hinn\u00e4 pienimuotoinen harrastus, is\u00e4nt\u00e4 ei juurikaan puuhaa omavaraisuuden parissa, erin\u00e4isi\u00e4 remontti ja korjaushommia lukuunottamatta.

Kuten sanottua, en viljele p\u00e4\u00e4toimisesti, eik\u00e4 meill\u00e4 ole tuotantoel\u00e4imi\u00e4k\u00e4\u00e4n. T\u00e4st\u00e4 syyst\u00e4 voi kulua p\u00e4ivi\u00e4, joskus per\u00e4ti viikkoja etten varsinaisesti tee mit\u00e4\u00e4n omavaraisuuteen liittyv\u00e4\u00e4. Nytk\u00e4\u00e4n en viimep\u00e4ivin\u00e4 ole kamalasti ly\u00f6nyt rikkaa ristiin, joten t\u00e4m\u00e4 on enemm\u00e4n yleisluonteinen kuvaus siit\u00e4 mit\u00e4 p\u00e4iv\u00e4ss\u00e4ni voisi tapahtua. L\u00e4hinn\u00e4 ajatukseni on tuottaa sen verran ruokatarpeita mihin voimavarani riitt\u00e4v\u00e4t. Kaikessa tekemisess\u00e4 omat voimavarani m\u00e4\u00e4rittelev\u00e4t nyky\u00e4\u00e4n hyvin pitk\u00e4lti sen, miten paljon talvivarastoja saamme ker\u00e4tty\u00e4. Is\u00e4nt\u00e4 ei osallistu puutarhanhoitoon koska se ei h\u00e4nt\u00e4 niin paljoa kiinnosta, eik\u00e4 h\u00e4nen olkap\u00e4\u00e4vammakaan kamalasti salli kuopsuttelua. Niinp\u00e4 omavaraisuudessani panostan helppohoitoisiin, monivuotisiin kasveihin, jotka eiv\u00e4t vaadi suurta vaivaa kasvukauden aikana.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

AAMULLA<\/strong>
Aamuisin minulla on monesti k\u00e4ynnistymisvaikeuksia ja aamupalan nautinkin nyky\u00e4\u00e4n usein vasta ty\u00f6paikalla. Silm\u00e4t kyll\u00e4kin saan auki yleens\u00e4 omenatuoremehulla tai tyrnimehulla, jota otan mojovan tujauksen heti ennen aamukahvia. Aamupalalla nautitaan my\u00f6s itse ker\u00e4ttyj\u00e4 marjoja niin pitk\u00e4lle kev\u00e4\u00e4seen kuin niit\u00e4 riitt\u00e4\u00e4. Ennen t\u00f6ihin l\u00e4ht\u00f6\u00e4 saatan kes\u00e4ll\u00e4 nypp\u00e4ist\u00e4 muutaman rikkaruohon tai kastella jos jotakin kasteltavaa on (l\u00e4hinn\u00e4 taimia). Joskus viet\u00e4n puutarhassa ihan vain pienen aamuhetken lintuja kuunnellen ja kasvun ihmett\u00e4 ihaillen. Varhaisen aamun valossa on nimitt\u00e4in omanlaistansa taikaa. Latasin itselleni hiljattain Muuttolintujen kev\u00e4t-aplikaation, jonka avulla yrit\u00e4n oppia tunnistamaan lintujen \u00e4\u00e4ni\u00e4. Se onkin melko koukuttavaa puuhaa ja on h\u00e4mm\u00e4stytt\u00e4v\u00e4\u00e4 miten paljon eri lintulajeja omasta pihapiirist\u00e4 l\u00f6ytyy.<\/p>\n\n\n

P\u00c4IV\u00c4LL\u00c4<\/strong>
Ty\u00f6p\u00e4iv\u00e4n aikana en ehdi juurikaan uhrata ajatuksia omavaraisuuteen, mutta lounaalla tietysti sy\u00f6n sen verran omavaraista varastoa kuin kulloinkin sattuu olemaan. T\u00e4m\u00e4 vaihtelee suuresti eri viikkoina, vuosina ja mielitekojen mukaan. Usein ei ole mit\u00e4\u00e4n itse kasvatettua, mutta joskus koko lounas koostuu omavarais-ev\u00e4ist\u00e4 kuten maa-artisokka- tai suppilovahverokeitosta, oman maan salaatista jne.
T\u00f6ist\u00e4 kotiin palattua teen joskus pienen kierroksen puutarhassa ja saatan viel\u00e4 jatkaa jonkin aikaa rikkaruohojen kitkent\u00e4\u00e4 tai k\u00e4yd\u00e4 ker\u00e4\u00e4m\u00e4ss\u00e4 p\u00e4iv\u00e4llistarpeita. Joskus alkusyksyst\u00e4 saatan pys\u00e4hty\u00e4 kotimatkalla sienimets\u00e4ss\u00e4. Tied\u00e4n kotimatkan varrelta hyv\u00e4n kantarellipaikan, jossa yleens\u00e4 on takuuvarmasti muutama kantarelli kastikeaineiksi. Maalla asuessa marja-, sieni- ja villiyrttimaastot eiv\u00e4t koskaan ole kovin kaukana, joten mets\u00e4\u00e4n on helppo poiketa ihan pikapikaa. Kaupungissa t\u00e4llainen pikapikaa mets\u00e4ss\u00e4 piipahtaminen ei ehk\u00e4 ole niin helppoa toteuttaa, kuin t\u00e4\u00e4ll\u00e4 metsien kainalossa asuessa. Jos minulla on aikaa ruuanlaiton yhteydess\u00e4, saatan leipoa tai tehd\u00e4 jotakin muuta nopeatekoista omavaraistelua, kuten hiustenmuotoilusuihketta pellavansiemenist\u00e4. <\/p>\n\n\n

ILLALLA<\/strong>
T\u00f6ist\u00e4 kotiin tultua on hetki aikaa istahtaa kahvin \u00e4\u00e4reen ja laittaa ruokaa. Ruuan j\u00e4lkeen, jos s\u00e4\u00e4 on hyv\u00e4 saatan viel\u00e4 viett\u00e4\u00e4 hetken puutarhassa kitkent\u00e4hommissa tai ihan vain ihailemassa ja ihmettelem\u00e4ss\u00e4. Mielest\u00e4ni puutarhassa haaluilu tekem\u00e4tt\u00e4 mit\u00e4\u00e4n on my\u00f6s t\u00e4rke\u00e4\u00e4, sill\u00e4 se lataa akkuja ja antaa henkist\u00e4 jaksua arjen uurastukseen. Itselleni omavaraistelussa yksi oleellinen asia onkin nimenomaan se haahuilu, se antaa ihan yht\u00e4 paljon, ellei enemm\u00e4nkin kuin se varsinainen sato. Ruuan j\u00e4lkeen saatan viel\u00e4 k\u00e4v\u00e4ist\u00e4 marjamets\u00e4ss\u00e4, p\u00f6lytt\u00e4m\u00e4ss\u00e4 kes\u00e4kurpitsan kukat, nuuskimassa salviapuskia tai tarkistamassa oman mets\u00e4n kantarellipaikat tai marjapuskat. Viimeisen\u00e4 illalla, kun aurinko on jo painumassa mailleen k\u00e4yn viel\u00e4 kastelemassa niin\u00e4 p\u00e4ivin\u00e4 kun se on tarpeen. Tavoitteena on ett\u00e4 varsinaista kastelua ulkona puutarhassa olisi mahdollisimman v\u00e4h\u00e4n ja ett\u00e4 kasvit p\u00e4rj\u00e4isiv\u00e4t sateen voimin omillaan mahdollisimman hyvin. Siksi pyrin k\u00e4ytt\u00e4m\u00e4\u00e4n vett\u00e4 s\u00e4\u00e4st\u00e4vi\u00e4 menetelmi\u00e4 kuten biohiilt\u00e4 kasvupohjassa ja kasteluruukkuja, jotka luovuttavat kosteutta kasveille hitaasti ja v\u00e4hent\u00e4v\u00e4t sen haihtumista suoraan ilmaan. Jos jaksan, saatan viel\u00e4 iltasella tehd\u00e4 hetken aikaa k\u00e4sit\u00f6it\u00e4 tai lueskella puutarhajuttuja, mutta n\u00e4it\u00e4 ei tapahdu kyll\u00e4 l\u00e4hesk\u00e4\u00e4n joka ilta. Joskus rentoudun ihan vaan katselemalla tv:t\u00e4. <\/p>\n\n\n

P\u00e4iv\u00e4n puuhat siis vaihtelevat suuresti vuodenajan mukaan ja riippuen siit\u00e4 miten paljon kasveja olen jaksanut kev\u00e4\u00e4ll\u00e4 kylv\u00e4\u00e4 ja istuttaa. Viikonloppuisin on enemm\u00e4n aikaa k\u00e4ytt\u00e4\u00e4 puutarhanhoitoon kuin arkena. Kev\u00e4\u00e4ll\u00e4 viikonloput kuluvat hy\u00f6tytarhan satokauteen valmisteluun ja istuttamiseen. Kes\u00e4ll\u00e4 yll\u00e4pidet\u00e4\u00e4n kev\u00e4\u00e4n istutuksia ja seurataan kasvua, ker\u00e4t\u00e4\u00e4n villiyrttej\u00e4 ja aikaista satoa. Loppukes\u00e4st\u00e4 alkaa toden teolla sadon s\u00e4il\u00f6nt\u00e4, joka tapahtuu p\u00e4\u00e4osin viikonloppuisin. Syksyll\u00e4 ker\u00e4t\u00e4\u00e4n viimeiset sadot ja aletaan valmistella puutarhaa lepokauteen. Meill\u00e4 on k\u00e4yt\u00f6ss\u00e4 bokashi kahden melko suuren astian voimin. Yhden astian t\u00e4ytt\u00e4miseen menee kahden hengen taloudessa useita viikkoja, ellei per\u00e4ti kuukausia. Niinp\u00e4 pystyn tyhjent\u00e4m\u00e4\u00e4n bokashi-astiat multatehtaaseen noin kahdesti vuodessa, kev\u00e4\u00e4ll\u00e4 ja syksyll\u00e4. Talven pimeimp\u00e4n\u00e4 aikana omavaraisuus ei n\u00e4y juuri puutarhan osalta muuten kuin mehulasissa ja ruokalautasella. Niinp\u00e4 talvella omavaraisuus keskittyy k\u00e4sit\u00f6ihin, korjaamiseen ja remontointiin. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Silloin kun vapaahetki\u00e4 ei tarvitse k\u00e4ytt\u00e4\u00e4 puutarhassa, tehd\u00e4\u00e4n remonttia, k\u00e4sit\u00f6it\u00e4 sis\u00e4tiloissa ja haaveillaan ensi kauden kasveista. Viikonloppuisin meill\u00e4 on my\u00f6s oma saunarutiini. T\u00e4ll\u00e4 hetkell\u00e4 olemme omavaraisia polttopuun suhteen ja siit\u00e4 valtaosa kuluukin saunassa. L\u00e4mmit\u00e4mme puusaunan kerran viikossa, yleens\u00e4 lauantaina tai sunnuntaina. Sauna on meille t\u00e4rke\u00e4 hyvinvoinnin l\u00e4hde sekin. Se toki puhdistaa, mutta my\u00f6s rentouttaa. Saunasta ei my\u00f6sk\u00e4\u00e4n voi koskaan tulla pois kiukkuisena. Olenkin aina sanonut ett\u00e4 saunassa puhdistuu kehon lis\u00e4ksi my\u00f6s mieli. Silloin kun minulla on univaikeuksia teen noin 1-1,5 tuntia ennen nukkumaanmenoa haudukkeen unta edist\u00e4vist\u00e4, itse poimituista tai kasvatetuista yrteist\u00e4 kuten vadelma, minttu, sitruunamelissa ja kanervankukka. Illalla viimeisen\u00e4 ennen nukkumaanmenoa kirjoitan p\u00e4iv\u00e4kirjaa. Minulla on viisi-vuotinen p\u00e4iv\u00e4kirja johon mahtuu kullekin p\u00e4iv\u00e4lle muutama rivi teksti\u00e4. Kirjaan siihen yl\u00f6s p\u00e4iv\u00e4n tapahtumia, s\u00e4\u00e4ilmi\u00f6it\u00e4 ja sen sellaista. Siit\u00e4 on hauska tarkastella edellisvuosien tapahtumia ja s\u00e4it\u00e4. Nykyinen viisivuotisp\u00e4iv\u00e4kirja p\u00e4\u00e4ttyy t\u00e4m\u00e4n vuoden loppuun, mutta minulla on jo uusi valmiiksi hankittuna.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

June’s prompt for self-sufficiency bloggers’ post is Self-Sufficiency Blogger’s Day. What does the day involve and what is self-sufficient life in practice? For us, farming is not our main occupation, we work outside the home. Self-sufficiency is mainly a small-scale hobby for me, hubby doesn’t really do much self-sufficiency related, except for some renovation and repair work. For the other posts in the group run by Sari <\/a>and Heikki,<\/a> you can find the links below. Posting continues after the links.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

As mentioned, I don’t farm full-time, and we don’t have farm animals either. It can take days, sometimes even weeks, that I don’t actually do anything related to self-sufficiency. I haven’t really done much during past couple days, so this is more of a general description of what my day could involve, rather than what actually happened this week. My idea is mainly to produce as much food as I can within my physical abilities allow. In everything I do, my own resources nowadays very much determine how much winter stock we can gather. Hubby doesn’t participate in gardening because he’s not that interested in it, and his shoulder injury doesn’t really allow him to do much gardening either. So for my self-sufficiency, I invest in easy-care, perennial plants that don’t require much effort during the growing season.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

MORNING<\/strong>
I frequently have trouble getting started in the morning and nowadays I often eat breakfast at work. However, I can usually open my eyes with fresh apple or sea buckthorn juice, which I take a hefty dose just before my morning coffee. I also eat wild berries which I picked myself on the breakfast, as long into the spring as my harvested stash lasts. Before leaving for work in summer, I might pull a few weeds or water the plants, if there’s anything that needs watering (mostly seedlings). Sometimes I spend a little time in the garden just listening to the birds and admiring the wonder of growth. The early morning light has a magic of its own. I recently downloaded the Muuttolintujen kev\u00e4t- app to help me learn to identify bird calls. It is bird sound app, developed by Finnish University and it helps you to learn bird sounds, but also gives information to the scientists about the living habitats and migration of birds. <\/p>\n\n\n

DAYTIME<\/strong>
During the work day I don’t have much time to think about self-sufficiency, but at lunch I eat as much self-sufficient stock as I happen to have. This varies greatly from week to week, year to year and according to what is on the menu. Often there is nothing home-grown, but sometimes the whole lunch consists of self-sufficient foods like sunchoke or funnel mushroom soup, home-grown salad, etc.
When I get home from work, I might make a little round in the garden and spend some time pulling weeds or picking up produce for dinner. Sometimes in early autumn I might stop at a mushroom patch on the way home. I know a good place for chanterelles on the way home, and there are usually a few guaranteed to be there, just enough for sauce. Living in the country, the berry, mushroom and wild herb patches are never far away, so it’s easy to pop into the woods for a quick browse. In the city, such a quick visit to the forest may not be as easy as it is when you live right next to the forest. If I have time, I might make something quick self-sufficient related while cooking, like bake something or make my linseed hair lotion. <\/p>\n\n\n

I photographed the sweet woodruff (galium odoratum) last night. It’s starting to bloom soon. It can be used as refreshing potpourri in your bed linen closet. It has a strong scent of coumarin, like cinnamon, especially when dried. Collecting galium for potpourri pouches is perfect small task after work day. <\/em><\/strong><\/figcaption><\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n

EVENING<\/strong>
When I get home from work, I have a moment to sit down with a coffee and to cook food. After the meal, if the weather is nice, I might spend some time in the garden weeding or just admiring and wandering around. I also think it’s important to wander in the garden doing nothing, because it re-charges your batteries and gives you the mental energy to get through the day. For me, one of the essential things about self-sufficiency is the wandering around, it gives just as much, if not more, than the actual harvest. After the meal, I might still go berry picking in the forest, pollinating the courgette flowers, sniffing the sage bushes or checking the chanterelle patches or berry bushes in my own forest. Last thing in the evening, when the sun is about to set, I go back to watering plants, if it’s needed. The aim is to keep watering to a minimum in the garden and to make sure that the plants can cope as well as possible just with the rain. I therefore try to use water-saving methods such as biocoal mixed with the soil and olla pots, the underground watering pots, which release moisture slowly to the plants and reduce evaporation directly into the air. If I have energy, I might do little bit of handcrafting or read about gardening, but these don’t happen every evening. Sometimes I just relax watching tv. <\/p>\n\n\n

Picking blueberries in the evening sun, about 500 meters from home. I’d rather go berry- and mushroompicking in good weather, but little drizzle doesn’t bother me. I am, however, fancy pants enough not to go to the forest when it’s pouring down. <\/em><\/strong><\/figcaption><\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n

So the day’s activities vary greatly depending on the season and how many plants I have managed to sow and plant in the spring. There is more time to spend on gardening on weekends than on weekdays. In the spring, weekends are spent preparing and planting in the kitchen garden. In the summer, we maintain plants and monitor growth, gather wild herbs and do early harvests. In late summer, the proper harvesting begins, allthough mostly on weekends. Autumn is the time to finish the harvest and start preparing the garden for the dormant season. We have a bokashi with two rather large containers. It takes several weeks, if not months, to fill one container in a two-person household. So, I am able to empty the bokashi containers into the soil factory about twice a year, in the spring and fall. In the heart of winter, self-sufficiency is barely visible harvest wise except in the juice glasses and food plates. So in the winter the self-sufficiency is mostly concentrating on handcrafting, repairing and renovation. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

When we don’t have to spend our free time in the garden, we’re renovating, handcrafting indoors and dreaming about next season’s plants. On weekends we also have our own sauna routine. At the moment we are self-sufficient in firewood and most of it is used in the sauna. We heat the wood sauna once a week, usually on Saturday or Sunday. Sauna is an important source of well-being for us as well. It is cleansing, of course, but also relaxing. And you can never come out of the sauna feeling grumpy. I’ve always said that a sauna not only cleanses the body, but also the mind. When I have trouble sleeping, about 1-1.5 hours before I go to bed, I make hot infusion of sleep-promoting herbs that I have picked or grown myself, such as raspberry, mint, lemon balm and heather. In the evening, the last thing I do before going to bed, I write in my diary. I have a five-year diary with a few lines of text for each day. I write down the day’s events, weather phenomena and so on. It’s fun to look back on the events and weather of previous years. My current five-year diary finishes at the end of this year, but I already have a new one ready to go.<\/p>\n\n\n
