Inā makemake ʻoe e ulu i nā mea kanu organik maikaʻi, pono ʻoe e hoʻomaka me nā mea maikaʻi. Ua loaʻa iaʻu kahi manawa a ua hopu wau. I ka pule i hala aku nei ua hele au i ka mahiʻai ʻo Yerlim ma ka moku ʻo Aegean o ke kauhale ʻo Davutlar o Kuşadası e ʻike i ka hana a ka poʻe ma laila. Ma hope o koʻu kamaʻilio ʻana me Gürsel Tonbul, ka mea nona ka mahiʻai a me ka hale ʻaina, ua hoʻoholo wau ʻo ke ala maikaʻi loa e hōʻike a ʻike ai i ka mahiʻai kūlohelohe ʻo ia ka hoʻomaka ʻana me nā huahana nani akā pilau o nā bipi ma ka mahiʻai. ʻO kēia ka wahi hoʻomaka no ka nui o nā huahana ma ka mahiʻai.
No laila, aia wau i loko o ka hale paʻa o kahi mahiʻai nui ma waho o Kuşadası. He mahiʻai ʻo TaTuTa ka mahiʻai, ʻo ia hoʻi, hiki i nā kānaka ke hana ma laila ma ke kumu manawaleʻa. ʻO ke kānāwai gula no kēlā mau mahiʻai ʻo TaTuTa ʻo ia kāu hana me ka uku ʻole ʻia, akā no ka mea, e aʻo nui ʻoe e pili ana i ka mahiʻai organik. ʻAʻole ʻae ʻia ka poʻe a pau e hana a aʻo i ka mahiʻai, aia hoʻokahi kumu: makemake pū ka mea nona ka mahiʻai e aʻo mai iā ʻoe, pono ʻoe e loaʻa nā mākau kūikawā a i ʻole ka ʻike. Aia ma Tureke aia ma kahi o 100 o kēia mau mahiʻai ʻo TaTuTa a ʻoi aku ka liʻiliʻi o lākou a pau. ʻO ka mea nāna i hoʻokumu i kēia papahana ʻo ka Buğday Foundation, kahi i komo i ka mālama ʻana i ke ʻano a me ka hoʻolaha ʻana i ka mahiʻai a me ka ʻai ʻana i ka meaʻai organik.
ʻOhi ʻeleʻele bipi
No laila, aia wau i ka mahiʻai. ʻO koʻu lā mua ia a makemake wau e hana. He koho nae ka'u; Hiki iaʻu ke hoʻomaka ma ka ʻohi ʻana i nā cranberries, ka weeding i ka māla zucchini, ka hana ʻana i loko o ka hale ʻōmaʻomaʻo a i ʻole ka hoʻomaʻemaʻe ʻana i ka hale paʻa kahi e hele ai nā bipi a puni. ʻO koʻu manaʻo e hoʻomaka i ka hoʻomaka.
Hiki i nā bipi ma Yerlim mahiʻai ke koho e noho ma ka hale paʻa a i ʻole e hele i waho a hauʻoli i ka lā a i ʻole ka ruminate i ka malu. Aia ka hapa nui o nā bipi ma waho o ia lā, ʻo ia ka maʻalahi o kaʻu hana. No ka hōʻiliʻili ʻana i ka lepo o nā bipi aia kahi ʻōnaehana, akā ʻaʻole i hana maikaʻi loa ia lā. No laila, ʻike wau iaʻu iho e kū ana i loko o ka lepo pipi a hiki i koʻu mau kuʻekuʻe wāwae, e hana ana me kahi lāʻau lōʻihi e hoʻolei i nā ʻōpala i loko o kahi ala e lawe ai i kahi lua wai. Ma laila e hui ʻia ai ka manure a hoʻokaʻawale ʻia ka wai (a ma hope e hui pū ʻia me ka wai i hoʻohana ʻia no ka hoʻoinu ʻana) a hoʻohana ʻia ka manure maloʻo ma ke kula e hoʻohua ai ka lepo.
He manawa maikaʻi ka pūnāwai e noho ai ma kahi mahiʻai. Hiki iā ʻoe ke ʻike i nā keiki hipa hānau hou, ua piha nā kumulāʻau i ka pua a i ʻole, ma hope iki o ka pūnāwai, hiki iā ʻoe ke hauʻoli i ka ʻohi ʻana a me ka ʻai ʻana i nā hua puna mua e like me ka mulberry ʻeleʻele a keʻokeʻo paha. Laki au, e ohi ana na kanaka i ka mulberry ma ka mahiai a'u i noho ai. Uhi lākou i ka honua me nā ʻāpana nui o ka moena fibrous. A laila, piʻi kekahi kanaka i luna o ka lāʻau a hoʻomaka e lulu i nā lālā o ka lāʻau. Lele ʻo ia mai kekahi lālā a i kekahi lālā a hāʻule nā mulberry ʻeleʻele i lalo i kahi kahawai pau ʻole. Piʻi ke kāne i luna o ka lāʻau, hoʻomaka nā kaikamahine e ʻohi i nā mulberry a pau; ʻeleʻele ʻeleʻele ko lākou mau lima, ʻeleʻele i ka wai o ka ʻala. Ua uhi ʻia ko lākou ʻaʻahu i nā ʻeleʻele a ua uhi paʻa ʻia ko lākou poʻo i kahi pale e pale ai iā lākou iho mai ka nahu ʻana o ka lā. Pīhoihoi lākou i koʻu hui pū ʻana me lākou e ʻohi ana i nā mulberry a kōkua iā lākou e kauo i ka moena i kekahi kumulāʻau i mea e hoʻokaʻawale ai i nā lau i hāʻule pū me nā mulberry.
Ma hope o ka hōʻiliʻili ʻana i nā mulberry āpau, lawe ʻia lākou i kahi o ka mahiʻai kahi e hoʻokahe ai ka wahine i nā hihia āpau i loko o kahi pā nui. Ma ke ahi lāʻau e hoʻolapalapa ai nā mulberry no nā hola a lilo lākou i syrup mānoanoa. Hoʻoulu mau ka wahine i ka wai mulberry me kahi puna lāʻau nui, hoʻokiʻekiʻe i ka lewa a nānā inā ua mānoanoa ka hui ʻana o ka mulberry. I ka manawa i loaʻa ai ka ʻano kūpono, lawe ʻo ia i ka pā o ke ahi. ʻO kaʻu mea e ʻike nei ma ʻaneʻi, ʻo ia ke ʻano o ka mālama ʻana i nā hua; ʻO kēia ka hana i hana ʻia ma Tureke i nā makahiki āpau.
