1976 Conversations and Morning Walks

You have so much land to cultivate here.
Morning Walk Around Farm -- July 31, 1976, New Mayapur (French farm):

Prabhupada: You have so much land to cultivate here.

Devotee (1): ...they produce a type of nut.

Prabhupada: Who eats that?

Devotee (1): We can eat. We roast in the oven, it is very good, offer it to the Deities.

Prabhupada: (break).... A small potato, in the sukta you gave it?

Harikesa: No, that was radish.

Devotee (1): See from the garden many tomatoes and squash. Cauliflower is coming also.

Prabhupada: (break) ...a large stock of water.

Devotee (1): Yes. There is lots of water underground, but it requires great equipment to bring it up in order to water all the land.

Prabhupada: What is the difficulty?

Devotee (1): We have only the previous pump which was here before, and it's not strong enough to water everything. So we need to install a new pump to get more water.

Prabhupada: This land ours?

Hari-sauri: Yes. Where that hump is on the brown field, up to that, where that tree is. Most of our land extends this way.

Bhagavan: Our land is mostly here.

Devotee (1): We have just taken barley from this field, Srila Prabhupada, many grains.

Devotee (2): This is some, some buckwheat barley.

Prabhupada: Hare Krsna. (break) ...Castle?

Devotee (1): This is what they call a water castle. The water goes up and there's a big reservoir, and then by pressure it distributes to the houses.

Prabhupada: So it is not being used?

Devotee (1): Oh, yes. (break) ...where we grow most of the flowers for the Deities.

Prabhupada: Oh, that greenhouse. That's a greenhouse?

Bhagavan: We have built that this year.

Hari-sauri: How many cows?

Devotee (1): We have three milking cows and four that will be milking. We're experimenting with different types of cows, the Brown Swiss.

Prabhupada: (break) Thank you. (break) ...You have got?

Devotee (2): One.

Prabhupada: What does it do?

Devotee (2): Pulling the loads, heavy loads.

Bhagavan: (break).... It's too narrow here right now, Prabhupada will be going in.... (break)

Devotee (1): Yes, the trees also is our forest.

Hari-sauri: These are nice paths for walking, very open.

Bhagavan: This way we have to go.

Prabhupada: Why they congesting the city in this, such light? (break) ...very nicely, people may seek out. Thank you. All right. (laughter)

Hari-sauri: He was going to give him a flower, and then just as Prabhupada reached out he took it back.

Prabhupada: Hare Krsna. (break).... to capture him. (cow bells) He's very young?

Devotee (1): One year.

Prabhupada: Bull

Devotee (1): Cow.

Bhagavan: This here, and the vegetable garden is up here.

Devotee (2): This is mung dahl, Srila Prabhupada, mung dahl. And these are marigolds. We put them in the greenhouse because it gives a longer season. Then we'll have more flowers for the garlands for the Deities.

Bhagavan: These are all table grapes.

Devotee (1): They are melons, Srila Prabhupada. You can see here, Srila Prabhupada.

Hari-sauri: There are melons also, Srila Prabhupada.

Devotee (2): Here are flowers. This is a heater for the winter to keep the temperature up. We try to grow tomatoes for the Deities in the winter.

Prabhupada: Hare Krsna. (end)
