“The southern region of Andalusia is where you’ll find the bulk of mainland Spain’s subtropical fruit production. Granada’s Mediterranean coastline is aptly known as the Costa Tropical and is home to the lesser-known cherimoya or custard apple. […] The fruit has a sweet and tart flavour, which makes them popular across the country. While they are delicious, cherimoya isn’t an easy fruit to grow in Spain, as the beetles that pollinate them in their native environment aren’t found here. Each flower must therefore be pollinated by hand, using pollen taken from another flower. Teams of farm workers carry out this laborious process every year.”

George Washington is best known for a variety of roles in the shaping of our country, from being the Commander-in-Chief of the Continental Army during the Revolutionary War, to being the first President of the United States.

However, one of his proudest personal achievements was being regarded as an accomplished farmer by his peers and colleagues. While he is most commonly referred to as “The Father of our Country,” he could also be called the “Father of American Agriculture.” Those closest to him believed Washington was at his happiest working his lands and conducting agricultural experiments.

Washington was primarily a tobacco farmer, but eventually diversified into growing wheat, corn, carrots, cabbage, and a variety of other crops. He also used the results to best determine what would grow best in the soil on the land.

Washington was a firm believer in the value of compost (or organic fertilizer as it is called today) to enrich the soil even further and get better use from it. At that time, not everyone used compost, and Washington went to great lengths to explain and prove how composting increased more productivity over time. He also experimented with a 7- year crop rotation plan. His planting methods, when combined with the compost practices, exponentially improved the long-term productivity of his land, all of which are the pillars of soil health that are used today. In numerous diaries, essays, and speeches, Washington encouraged American farmers to enrich their soil instead of wearing it out. So it’s fair to say he was one of the first recognized conservationists in the country. […]

In an address to Congress, Washington stressed the importance of agriculture and farming in relation to the survival of the country: “It will not be doubted that with reference either to individual or national welfare, agriculture is of primary importance. In proportion as nations advance in population and other circumstances of maturity this truth becomes more apparent, and renders the cultivation of the soil more and more an object of public patronage.” Washington constantly tried to improve his farming, and when he did, he did it as much for America as for himself. […]
