The Basics of Natural Farming (part 2 of 2)

[acadianscorpio]

i really enjoyed your video.....thank you !

[GreenLearning]

"originally we had no reason to progress, and nothing that had to be done" Thats my favorite line in the video! Most of people spend most of their life getting to the point where "retire" and not have to do anything. In the name of progress and a better/easier life, we have given up everything that matters in life and never live because we always have to do something and have no time. One thing people had a few generations back was time. I "retired" from progress 30 years early & love it!

I know this will be unpopular, but that view is simply not true, as warm and fuzzy as it sounds. In the real wrld there are big well funded corps like Monsanto who are tickled pink when we "do nothing"...the reason for those 1B pple starving is that food is a commodity, and thrfore, largely controled by commerce and greed. Lrge corps whose SOLE aim is the bottom line and not whether they even produce anything that is edible or has any food value. If they didn't exist, doing nothing would work.

"The more people do the more problems arise"

That is soooooooo true

[athatcher85]

i love this video. im currently trying to get some land for me and my family to grow our food and become self-sufficient. I learn so much from your video. thank you

[GreenLearning]

@athatcher85 Dont forget gorilla gardening while you look for land! If you are like me you have only a vague idea of what it really takes for feed your self. I found all the answers I needed in 3 publications from bountiful gardens: "how to grow more vegetables", food now, and one mexican diet. Now I know how much space it really takes ans well as what to grow so that my family has complete nutrition. I hope to release a video on it soon, but their videos are already on youtube!

I love your video!!! I wish I new someone that would let me live in a place like this! I have been saving for years just to buy some land but every time I get ahead the system finds a way to take all my money. I dream and pray everyday that the universe will grant me the resources I need to live in a place like this, where I can become one with my earth and my animals and live a life that is Truly free. I have a little garden in my yard, It is my sanctuary. I thank the universe that I have that.

[wiheedotcom]

hahahahah, I like the part at 8:43. The chicken is eating the tomatoes and later his eating that chicken hahahahaha..... My brother used to do similar things hahahaha....

[neenatube]

how to garden when there are deer nearby and they eat everything. They don't eat herbs but do like fruits and veges

[Ketou]

@neenatube I have an australian shepherd I keep outdoors in a house facing my garden; she vehemently defends it from deer. Alternatively, hunt from your porch and start making deer jerky! You can pretend your garden is bait for deer, and it won't seem like a loss.

[erpryce]

Love your video - great - how do I get started.

[RonPaulIsiah]

very inspirational my brother. i just have a big smile during the end. great job with making the video. i started gardening this year and it is the best thing i have done in my life! keep it up my friend.

[95gardener]

Awesome garden! Great video. Thanks!

[KrazySaneGirl]

Amazing!

[jeanineadele]

Nice job on the garden and the video.

[EdenCreekFarm]

Yeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee-Haw!

LOVE! LOVE! LOVE!

[Jayrock37343]

this is incredible

[sujaysukumar123]

this video makes me peaceful and happy....

[birdance]

To start off, I wonder where you got the straw from. All barley growers use pesticides. If the straw you used had chemical residue, would this be a problem?

[stovokor1]

You make me want to tear out my flower beds and plant veggies.

[RonPaulIsiah]

@stovokor1 haha dont do thatm just make another garden bed ;)

[wonnep]

Amazing & very inspirational video ! Thanks for your effort ! Music sounds good !

[organics4you]

[Regzillaaa]

[mikecat23]

GREAT VIDEO

[helgevig]

I love you.

[simonk512]

you missed one at 4:28, no use of fossil fuels

[paulo1149]

Love the video. This is the way I would like to farm. Request - turn down the volume on the background music.

[axelinaustralia]

How do you keep the biomass decomposing and feeding the soil while stopping the plants from reseeding themselves?

[Illchangeitlater]

Swis chard cooked in rice is the best! Right on!!!!just a littl bit of salt! :P

[nodedog]

Thanks for the video. Yah, fossil fuel is rapidly poisoning our atmosphere, besides being used up.

[ischnura]

Great video! Thank you for sharing it!

[littlepiaf]

I love your video! Thank you. I have just planted my first raised beds in an urban setting. Have 6 chickens too! I was worried about feeding them all my tables scraps and not composting like a good little gardener should, but if I use the Fukuoka method I can help the veggies beds compost themselves, right. I gotta buy the book!

[JAS4five]

What an amazing system. Whoever thought that nature could be improved upon!

[MrGreenbudha]

great video!!

[omegahpla]

Good stuff, I really dig permaculture but I hate the poser crap & the psedo "green" BS syntax & tone & the Uke? fordalovaGod! Green was great until all these fad hopping dip wads jumped on. Now you have the poser talk, the cherry picked info that's not honest. Now I hear the word Green & it makes my forkin skin crawl!

By adding straw & leaving the organic material YOU ARE COMPOSTING! Composting is great, so why bag on it? Be real, it's the most organic thing. At least you eat the chicken : )lol

[elmadas]

@omegahpla well, it's a sort of composting in place, but this video shows a lot of work behind the courtains. I love the ukulele, I love this young man working on his csa. I hate pseudoanarchyc permaculture elite and I know a bunch of them unfortunately. He is simply doing. this helps without setting up a special compost pile, or turning it.

green was never good, remember the green revolution?

you always find someone jumping on the wagon of fashion, whatever fashion is, turnip plastic next?

[ThanksgivingWalk]

You're video is sure inspire many to grow food naturally and without harming the earth, not only for themselves, but also for family and friends. So good to see more and more people spreading the word by showing others what is possible,

Job well done!

God bless,

[panhandlephillips]

[Amathos]
