you need someplace green. there's nothing but desert all around you bro. in the meantime, you can put up tarps over your animals and veggies or just muslim type cloth or sheets, and fix up a mister for the animals. you can also dig down 3 feet or so where they can roost in the cool. good luck
you can make a solar panel have a battery system and it will easily run that well pump , cant grow much in the desert you better get into raising rabbit , cheap a fast food , put the animals pens into the ground so they dont die , the plants and pens should have a dam solar shade over them ,
you should start looking into sprouts too, its faster then waiting for the fruits of labor, and it's WAY more nutrient filled. Things just seem half-assed? Do you have help there or is it just you doin everything? If it's just you...man you beter man up and get the others to start contributing, plus it's a nice thing for a fam to work together! There was no real description about this vid so I don't know your real situation, but I do hope things are better for you now.
looks like you took on more than you can handle?...how many people are in you "group" like 40?!!! You seem to be way too spread out man! there is soooo much you could do with that place to make it 10x beter than what you've got goin on. You shouls downsize and get more compact! The wind will help alot if you know how to use it. electricity shouldn't be a prob especially if you're blowin money trying to up-keep. Try to put some of the animals underground and start cloning your plants its faster!!
An addition to my previous post a minute ago: alomst at the beginning of your vid I see these succulent, round 'leaved' cacti in white buckets. These are your number one groundwater killers !!! If you're cultivating them on your property, then there's absolutely no question as to why your ground is dry like hell.
1. Shade cloth has been mentioned -makes a BIG difference to general local climate if used on large scale.
2. Windmill for the water pump has been mentioned.
Water household has not been mentioned. Go out and find any useless succulents and deep tapping plants that drench your ground water. Try to do the same for your entire rain catchment area. Talk to your neighbors about it. They might just love you for it.
Was it the cheap land that attracted you to this location? Have you considered a wind pump for your well? Also have you considered going out and getting loads of good quality top soil. Also shade cloth might be a good idea for the more delicate plants.
Your better off than 75% of the world. The Navajo and Apache had less. Use what you have to the best of your abilities, and be glad your families are together. Looks like a modern High Chapparal to me.
awesome dude....i envy you. it just remind me of my grand parents house. when i was young, we never worry about inflation or run out of money. because the food is always there.
@dadrules714 water is not scarce..there is a huge water aquafir under the ground all over his region. he said he has a well, he's just not using the water he has the right way, and like I said b4, he needs to get more compact and and there should be people there all the time working on the land. There was NOONE else in the vid, we should'ev seen people working! These thing he should look at, including building adobe for his animal and sheds. The wood and metal should be scrapped.
The devil is losing and at the end will be judged for all the crimes. Live at the full in the freedom of GOD (praying in a right form, following the INSTRUCTIONS in the Bible - keeping the 10 commandments - including keeping the Saturday as the 7th day etc.) instead of in the incapacity and deception of devil. Jesus Christ is the savior, love and hope.
A solar water pump system is your answer. I'm in Duddleyville Arizona! the water table here is 20 foot down. Contact me at tjbrownrigg@yahoo.com I've been working on a solar project for four years now. This is a better location then New Mexico. PS I've got a herd of 50 boar goats!
You can make a WIND GENERATOR from a car alternator and the blades from a house fan. Marine batteries and an inverter. FREE JUICE! Solar power? A duracell 600 watt power mate? Get a hand pump for the well, just in case? There are ELECTRIC atv's? Also rabbit farming, and goat milk. there are fruit trees that are better in drier lands. Plant a few? Be good.

Don't want to sound mean or negative, but my advice is to stick to your day job. If you feel as though you need to be a hoarder, buy tinned stuff. It's your best bet because, with respect, you certianly no farmer. All the best.
Ron Paul, Peter Schiff, Gerald Celente & others knew about the systemic economic problem before the PANIC of 2008. If you'd've asked any of them DURING the PANIC if they believed this system could continue for another year or so before collapsing MOST would have emphatically said "NO!"
Yet, here we are approx 4yrs later. So its NOT IMPOSSIBLE that things could drag on a few more years! This is NOT to say we should grow complacent. I BELIEVE in a coming collapse, I'm NOW READY!
A little idea . Spend some money on solar pannels and dig a basement to put them on . Not on the roof of the house ! . Make hall ways in that basement and put your pannels on the walls . Big mirrors on the ceiling and the floor . and hang economic lightbulbs in the middle of those hall-ways . These lightbulbs will suck a little bit of electricity , but nothing compared with the Power you're getting from them . That way you can have power 24 hours a day, and no need a hand-water-pump anymore...
I'm not far behind. I too was into daytrading and real estate after years of working 18 hours a day and running two of my own companies. It got to the point where the cash flow turned negative a bit too long lol. At least life hasn't been boring so far. Good luck to you!
Buy canned goods, especially the ones that are kinda like soups or Heins beans in tomato.
But more than food, pray and fast, now. The more you purify your self before God the more He will grant His Divine Mercy upon you and your loved ones. Fasting has been in all religions and is a need of the spirit and the mind, it makes you more distant to the world and makes your ego fall into step. More than anything, pray. Pray, since this world will turn in a living hell. May God bless you. Kisses.
I love your video. I am from kansas and I wish to give you advise. Plant grass. cover up your dirt. Plant it everywhere! Keep it four feet from trees you like. I'm following right behind you. Let your grass grow over each year to reseed itself.
Man 300 Million people in the most armed Country in the World are going to go land based with their arms in search of what ever they can get if the predictions are right, the Farm needs to be behind a fortress first I would think?
It's not that more people believe in the THEORY of the Big Bang, its that more people are taught about the Big Bang THEORY as FACT, and because they are already dumbed-down through years and years and layer upon layer of admittedly biased lies and documented manipulations of truth by the failing Public Education System, they simply choose to stay ignorant like a horse with blinders on, plodding along believing everything they were taught.
Excess heat requires a sun shade canopy / cover to protect the plants . Also needed is a soaker hose system with mulch / compost cut shrubs and the like placed on / over the plant beds to shade the soil from direct sun so water loss will be kept minimal , maybe even deep bed garden to preserve water feeding the plants or even bedding plastic covers . Grow food plants under shade trees to save water, etc.
The key to survival will be to keep your overhead costs as low as possible , first , then build equity , resources , contacts for exchange / shared responsibilities . You must get that well going for sure and with reliability of function / use .
Now have your C.Engr. brother devise a permanant magnet propulsion generator(DC alternator/ wind turbines) for electricity beyond solar capability for hi power needs . Grow plants for wind breaks and shade for the dwelling unit and insulate against extremes of cold / hot weather . Again use all passive means available to save $ . I think you've got a great opportunity since Arizona is one of the few true 2nd ammendment states and respects individual freedoms ,so why all the expense to relocate?
You can use 12 volt H2O pump / solar powered and battery bank reserves along with check valves in the water pick up line to help raise water the necessary amount of lift ! Set up all electricity to be 12 volt and incorporate as much shading as possible by trees and shrubs for sirrounds . Get started now on the grow items since it does take time to mature .You will get much assissted benefit from nature while you are busy doing other necessaries . And economize/prioritize/plan to save resources !
Yes . get rid of that mortgage debt and other grid connected debt services so as to be land secure and concentrate on self sufficiency to keep your privacy for security. Build up equity of assets since the dollar is not reliable to keep value . Talk to me to brainstorm and make possible shared connection of resources as desribed in my previous comments .
Oh ! I forgot to mention to find others to commune with on the farm for shared labor , fellowship , security and other good reasons. Many hands make light work and better oversight of responsibilities . Better to have a shared invested interest rather than a contested one to protect/guard .
Look ! , you can install a bank of solar panels along the goat pen and along the garden , then any other places you want to shade can be covered by simple overhangs . This way your goets and garden gets necessary shade and you generate electricity for you well pump and other power needs . This approach seems to be a heck of alot easier and more practical than relocating and trying to replicate something like what I just described . Try to join with others for community shared reliance and exch
100+ degree temperature wreaks havoc on your produce.
I can tell you that it was 111 degrees + for weeks/months and my garden produced very little. My slicer tomatoes were the size of grape tomatoes... My peppers were tiny. Plants looked healthy, but it was just too hot to produce. (Beans and peas burnt up...)
if electricity is a big concern you could buy some good commercial solar panels and some batteries much cheaper than you can start a new farm. you already have a lot of work and time in your place there and it would be a shame to throw it away and run into the same situation somewhere else. economic collapse in one state will happen in all states sooner or later.
Aww. JIMMY, you sound so down! I can't emphasize enought that you should check out SUSTANANCEANDCOVERING on Youtube and the BACK TO EDEN film on gardening (I'm not a christian, but they are, and their methods work amazingly)...Good luck and buck up!!
you need to move to south carolina if you want to be a farmer. the land is cheep in the country and you deffinately wont have a problem growing anything.
You got to move or learn to live like a Native American. Az. sucks, lol I was stuck there a few years, yea not the place to grow, or live. New Mexico is the same.
You need to grow what is meant to grow in the climate. Or move. You are right on. Barder the food with what you can grow to what you can't. Hang in there. Remember ya gotta manup2survive.
Why create a self-sustaining environment if thousand of other people want/need what you have created.... How many people will you have to kill to maintain your property.
Being self-sustaining is a great thing, one that makes a person feel good inside, knowing that the abilities within him come straight from Our Father who made us.
Father gives us the seasons; the time to prepare the ground, the time to plant the seed and the time to harvest...
Mankind is Father's harvest and the time is coming for all to reap what they have sown.
Our Heavenly Father loves His children and wishes that none should perish.
Love the Lord, repent of all sins in the name of Jesus.
@RememberPaulRevere Being self sustaining is not a great thing for a believer in the New Testament. You are showing great mistrust in your savior. Remember this? "Take therefore no thought for the morrow: for the morrow shall take thought for the things of itself" How to pray----"Give us this day our daily Bread" "Therefore take no thought, saying, What shall we eat? or, What shall we drink? or, Wherewithal shall we be clothed? " "Provide neither gold, nor silver, nor brass in your purses"
@keepdancingmaria Mistrust in the Savior? God uses secondary causes to bring about his goals. Being self-sustaining is wisdom. Read the book of Proverbs.
Jesus warned his followers in Jerusalem to escape to the mountains when they see foreign armies surrounding the city. But if we did what you think is proper, you would have had them remain in the city because preparing to escape would be a sign of unbelief.
But he warned them about something that happened FORTY years after!
@mjt1517 Then you are ignoring the fact that the bible has this Jesus character contradicting himself.
I wish the christians HAD stayed in the city. Sorry for those particular christians, but the world would have been saved from one hell of a lot of misery.
And no, he did not warn them about anything. He never existed. He is a compilation of many, many saviour figures.
I have read proverbs. Now you look up Horus and Osirus.
@keepdancingmaria Those were only the Christians in Jerusalem...by AD 70, Christianity was well rooted all through the Roman Empire. Sorry, Mac...we're here to stay. And we'll outlast you and your descendents.
Bottom line? There is nothing in our faith that prevents us from saving for a rainy day...or double tapping violent miscreants who would invade our homes.
@RememberPaulRevere Keep your preaching for yourself. My sins, if any, are none of your concern. You have sins of your own you need to worry about, like not knowing what your own holy book says, and not following it.
But please don't follow it, I am certain you have more sense than the ultimate in anti-intellectual "Take NO thought...." Please, please, think. Don't preach, think!
Amazing that you would condemn my comment not even addressed to you, and have in your own mind, determined that I have said I don't sin or that I personally attacked or addressed your sins?
In addition, I'm not preaching, just stating my own belief and experience that Father Blesses those who EARN IT....One does not earn it by being a lazy bum, taking things-wealth-etc off the backs of anothers labor, tho many in today's time frame think otherwise.
Who provides those things we need if NOT our Heavenly Father? Ask and ye shall receive those things which Father wants us to have, nothing more and nothing less.
@keepdancingmaria Sorta like Father giving us the time to harvest our crops, yet some chose not to harvest and just set around waiting for God to do it for them. Then comes winter and they had no food stored and questioned God why He didn't provide food for them to eat, and God answered, I did but you refused to store that which I provided. Read Provers 6: 6-11 Consider the ways of the Ant O'sluggard
@Ttwistnturn Yea we looked into that, problem is hand pumps only go up to 250 foot depth. The water table here is 500 feet deep. Even 250 is pushing it, you have to be pretty strong to be able to hand pump water from that depth
@jimmy40290 you could have a mule or some other cattle rigged up to some contraption to pump the water, perhaps. Can those goats do that sort of work in that heat?
You could do as I have, I bought a place in southern central Idaho near the nevada border. No colder than winter in the Texas pan handle, but alot less people at less than 4 per sq mile verses thousands per sq mile. I have water at 40 feet deep with years of non hybred seeds and thats the most important supplies no mater where you are. Noone wants to be there, thats the best place to be.
Great news, folks, Jesus will save you. If it looks like you're going to die while waiting for him, don't despair- he's just testing your faith. Besides, even if he lets you die, you'll be with him! Of course, if you prep in any way, it will be a slap in God's face. If you're Christian, don't prep- any type of planning for anything other than God's return will void your holy warranty, as it shows that you didn't trust God to take care of you. Happy praying.
@benskin79 "If you're Christian, don't prep- any type of planning for anything other than God's return will void your holy warranty,"
Where in the Bible does it say such things?
By ALL means, Trust in the Lord, but he expects us to have some COMMON SENSE and not be lazy creatures! We should be prepared in the flesh AND most important spiritually.
One suggestion: don't raise livestock. Become a vegan. Animals don't give much food in return for what they consume. You can do it, it's not that hard. Also, rock dust makes an excellent fertilizer.
Just wondering, how many animals-livestock have you raised and what types? Chickens are free range and provide eggs, a source of protein and meat should you need. Cows & goats provide milk and meat.
@RememberPaulRevere My parents raised goats and chickens for about 20 years and also pigs, turkeys and sheep at times. So I'm familiar with how difficult it is to find good quality feed, like alfalfa for the goats. All that work they did seems like futility in hindsight. I've been on a vegan diet for ten years and am still in good health.
I think it well and good to have both and alfalfa is not grown in most areas, thus goats eat native grasses as do cattle. Chickens raised free range are not fed grains etc during most of the year, only those in coops.
Being a veggie eater is fine, but what if veggies are not available, what would one eat then? Milk from goats, cows can be made into and used in many things, butter, cheese, etc.
Planting fruit trees and learn to preserve & can them
Hey bro, as far as power, all you would need is a couple of small wind turbines, a couple of solar panels, a couple of solar generators and about 6 batteries and youd be good to go... you could easily go off grid and sustain... you have a good set up so far... just go solar and get a good water purification system and add a small undergound shelter running solar power to it as well and your good... and most of all, choose Jesus Christ and give your life to Him...
@phillipgaley - Yea I didn't really choose the desert. I moved here when I was a kid with my parents and have been here ever since. If I could I would leave and if I get the chance I will.
@jimmy40290 When I was in Oregon—concerning the desert—a woman told me: "It's no place for children.", and as she was speaking, I began to get a picture of the heat and lack of shade trees, the sand, the snakes and stinging insects, and the absence of wealth which is natural wherever people are; e.g., in Portland, every day, I could fill a Datsun pu with food—and, the truck was free, which later, I sold for 600.
OK is tough, too; even the hippies tried it and left. However, here, if you don't
@jimmy40290 . . . . here, if you don't have money for property taxes—guess what? They can be discharged—and just to think, how many people around the country are being kicked out of a place to live!
And, in OK, none of the banks have failed; and, I've met people who came here from CA, because the unemployment rate is low.
And despite what some fool might suppose, yes, to build up a place, requires labor measured in years, . . .
@jimmy40290 have you looked into using bidomes with an aquaponic system... you can grow year around, eat the fish and not have to use very much water...good luck
Why Thanks! I didn’t know that your food would be so available when time is so tuff.
Get the point. I know you’re proud of your garden. So just say that. But do you not think that the people know how to plant a seed? Or look up Servival guiid. It was just a waste of my and other people’s time. Fix your heading please.
@hunsadersrockinranch - You completely missed the point... it takes years to make things grow. When times get tough will seed be available to plant? Fertilizer? Compost takes at least six months to make. Only people with a couple years stored food will have a chance if they have bought seed ahead of time and that's if they are in a good climate...sorry I wasted your time, you have obviously spent a lot of time figuring this out.
It amazes how many ASS***S there are out there. If you try to help anyone you are blessed so keep your head up and never waver. To the retards: It is better for people to think your stupid but to open your mouth and prove them right is PROOF of.......you get the point. Thank you Sir for your time and Patriotic efforts to inform the populace. I commend you. Christ in you is your Hope and Glory. Best of everything to you and your efforts, they will be rewarded.
@hunsadersrockinranch Hey Idiot.. Don't think you need to be such an azzhole. Try learning how to express your ideas in a helpful, constructive way or don't waste your breath b/c people won't bother listening to you. :)
Jimmy. Practically everything the banks 'monetize' as collateral for loans is hard assets but they are not assets to us at all because we must collateralize them to get the medium-of-exchange. Then, the banks (because we allow it) turn the 'hard assets' into 'assets' to the bank and debts to you.
Even after preparing for and going through a 'collapse' you will again turn your 'hard assets' into 'whatever currency they will take', just like now. What sense does that make?
What will we pay our property taxes with after the 'collapse', vegies? If you can't pay the property taxes then they take your property. Come on. The American Brain and the ability of Americans to think critically is the only thing that's collapsing. DEBT is the problem. They switched our money from wealth to debt. We must switch it back to wealth. This Free Nation was never intended to be forced into debt to have money to do commerce. Want to be a serf slave? Just keep watching collapse videos.
@gs6285gs - That is why I said in the video that banks would figure out how to extract money (or whatever) out of people even if there is a collapse. The same goes for government. I have given this 4 years of thought. Silver, Gold, or other hard assets are the only thing that can be turned into whatever currency they will take when that time comes. In this vid I am trying to tell people to think about those things - how to start some kind of profit growing business that will do well in
@gs6285gs continued - in this world and even after collapse. Farming and creating food is a good business to get into no matter what happens. Even if things continue the way they are. Are learn how to weld, or construction, or mechanics. You can build wealth using these things whether there is a collapse or not.
@knowledgeispowerfful What is happening in the world now is happening at a very profound spiritual level. You cannot save yourself by your own will or anything your rational mind can plan, i.e. movoing to higher ground etc.. This time of crisis is God's calling for the purification of the creation. Therefore you must pray, that is converse with God inside you to make His will yours and then follow it. In that way you will know what to do. Pray to know God's will for you.
@bigbono12 Considering that you didn't say anything in response to my gift of wisdom to you in my previous comment, perhaps it's too much at this time for you to connect with God through prayer. If you are sincere it will come. On the material level the only place physically safe in the US and where you could survive the way you want to, that is by independent farming is Hawaii. There you have it, 2 gifts from me: 1 spiritual 1 material suggestion.
@bigbono12 Hi big bono sorry I have not had time to get on my computer lately that is why I did not respond. Yes I already pray. I would like to go to Hawaii but it's too expensive and I get a little nervous with all the volcanoes. I was also thinking east like Idaho or indiana? All I can do is make a decision to set up some place and do my best no matter what comes. That is all anyone can do - and pray like you said
What a tragedy the USA is, and they still continue to make nuclear bombs and bully the world with war and sanstions etc.while their people can hardly feed themselves. Madness. Justice will come in full for the USA, for reality always wins even if it is constantly being denied.
@inhalefarts - the intent of this video is not just telling people how hard it is to farm in the desert, farming is hard work period no matter where you live. The point was mostly that place like Phoenix and Tucson are like islands in the middle of no where. What happens when trucks stop bringing in supplies?
Sometime in the 70's—TMEN, had an article on french intensive agriculture, showing that, a 10x10—100 sq. ft. of good soil could supply all the vegetables for a family of four. Then your meat—rabbits with underground access for nesting, . . . or catfish farming.
In the 30's, Helen and Scott Nearing showed that, without power tools, 4hrs/day supplied enough labor to provide for one's needs, . . .
@phillipgaley - I like this and this is what I am shooting for at my new property. I am going for raised beds but just going to try and supply food for me, the family, and close friends. If I do any selling it will be honey and bee products because they are the least labor intensive. I am definately going to down size at the new place!!!
So, when the economic collapse really takes hold, and people are starving - how are you gong to stop me from coming onto your property, killing you and yours, and commandeering your property and food stocks?
@IkeDyson71 this dude will not admit it to you but i can gaurantee you he is heavily armed and if you are starving he will kill your ass rather than share his food with you. selfish bastard ! if it goes down like that i'm gonna share everything i got and then go down like a man with honor and true luv and charity for his fellow man. that's what JESUS would have done. Pax CHRISTI ( peace of CHRIST)
If it goes down like that, I will not be stocking up on foodstuffs, just so folk can come along, kill me, and take my supplies. Instead, I plan to derive nourishment from a source that will never run out. I plan to eat PEOPLE!
Yes, I'm going to become a cannibal, and kill people, and cook them. The only thing I'll be hoarding is a recipe book!
See all those obese fatties that are always stuffing their faces with junk food? I don't want them. They'll be safe from me. But all those guys that work out in the gym every day - they're the ones I'll be "hunting"!
I want lean meat, and gravy, with no fat like the chops my wife did for dinner last night.
@jcbluefunk - True I am heavily armed and I have been doing alot of hunting lately, but i don't want to hurt anyone unless I have to. I would rather offer them a place to stay and food to eat if they help me protect what I have and work for their supper. I believe in Christ and he taught men how to fish instead of just handing it to them.
@jcbluefunk - it's not going to happen that way. As I said before people are going to stay at home as long as they can using up what little resources they have there. Only after the resources are used up in their home will they venture out but close, by this point they have already started getting weak. They will stay in town and wait for government assistance even if it takes days - look at Katrina. By then I don't think many will make it to my place out in the desert in the middle of no where.
@jimmy40290 you didn't answer my question and what makes you think that you can predict how things will go down ? you seem to think that not many will find you but maybe one person by the grace of GOD will find you and help others by telling them about your stash. then you will be besieged by multitudes,most likely also armed like most americans. also there could be invading armed forces or even your own government forces that can track you down easily and put you in a fema camp.
@jcbluefunk - The bottom line answer to your question is you are right. I will do what I have to do to make sure my family eats and those in my community who are part of my support will have my support as well. I have been living this life for four years now, sometimes my hands bleed from blisters on Saturday from turning soil while others are at the local sportsbar having a beer and watching their favorite team. Sometimes I have spent my last dollar on feed for animals while others are able
@jcbluefunk continued - to buy the latest cool gadget. This isn't the life I want or would choose. I do it because I make smart choices. Like when I sold all my real estate in 2005-2006 because I looked at the REIT charts and knew the market was topping out. If you want to get religious then here is a story for you. God had Noah build the ark and he spent months even years building it. During that time Noah warned and warned everyone that the flood was coming but everyone thought and said he
@jcbluefunk continued - was crazy. When the rain finally came God shut the door of the ark after Noah and his family went inside and sealed it. Noah heard everyone outside screaming and crying to let them in but it was too late. The door was sealed shut, and so was their window of opportunity. So...jcbluefunk as you are watching my vids and the vids from others like mine, you are being warned - so please prepare. Prepare so people like me don't have to defend ourselves from people like you.
@jimmy40290 you don't have to defend yourself from me, which you should realize from my first comment. your main concern should be when you breath your last breath. then your eternal soul belongs to GOD who created you and knows everything you did in your life including the fact that you did not practice the greatest virtue of all, CHARITY ! GOD created you with free will, it is up to you- HEAVEN or hell. your reference to NOAH, a true prophet of GOD, is ridiculous. Kyrie Eleison.
@jcbluefunk - Ok Kyrie, I disagree with you and your interpretation of the bible but that's ok. We don't know each other and you really don't know what kind of person I am (whether charitable or not) by watching a few of my videos. I am at piece with God, and I do feel it is my responsibility to prepare myself and my family. We each choose our paths according to what we believe and there are consequences for those choices whether you choose my path or yours. Good luck to you.
@jimmy40290 The raised beds will take a lot of back-breaking work out of it. You might like reading: "PLOWMAN'S FOLLY", and, "FIVE ACRES AND INDEPENDENCE".
The war—foretold in "George Washington's Vision"—will start late in 2013, lasting 3 1/2 yr.; afterward, land will be quite cheap—you can guess why, . . .
Hey, if the war doesn't start until 2013, like yuou say, guess I got time to work on my plan. I'm going to Africa, a part where they have no technology, where they are still totally primitive, and still hunt for food. I'm going to take a few items of technology, like solar-powered radios, wind-up toys, etc. When they see that, they will fall at my feet, and worship me.
On the other hand, they may decide to EAT me. Ha ha ha ha ha ha ha....
@IkeDyson71 Well, to return to a serious note, I have thought that, I would like to play Maputo (piano); and to me, Mozambique is tremendously attractive—it's not primitive, and has the maybe the fastest growing economy on that continent, and is rich in natural resources and possessed of a fantastic culture, . . . BUT, . . . they do drive on the left, . . . so, I don't know, . . .
you need to invest some time on GlobalBuckets or Earthbox gardening and Vermicomposting and watch Growing Power Inc with Will Allen ...chance favors a prepared mind...best of luck
You have obviously worked very hard, with your brother, and now you will leave it all to try to find a better place? and start all over when you have what most would hope to have if shtf/econonmy collapse or something happens? I would not leave all that to my brother
@MIRCWOOD I didn't leave it all. I left him with half. The place was like a house of cards. We did not have a sustainable source of water and all that you see there would be dead in 2-3 weeks if not less. Also...the place was not mine and that really bothered me. I was spending alot of money and labor on something that could just be taken away. Now I have my own place. I am actually better off here, and its at about the same level as where I left, and in some cases it's even further along.
Hey, have you thought about building a wind power generator? It is probably feasible to engineer a wind power system if you study it long enough. Let me know.
@VelociRaptor93 The problem with hand pumps is that they really only go up to 250 feet and thats if you got some good arm muscle. Our water is about 480 feet deep
@MrStillmans - We looked at that a long time ago. My brother especially cause he likes to look in to those types of things. I think he said it was something like 1/4 of an acre per person. From what I have seen though it depends on your soil. The better you can get your soil the more you can grow in a smaller and smaller space.
@jimmy40290 Thanks for the info. I presume there is much variation in land needed, as metabolisms differ so widely, and you would want loads extra in case of pests/weather/theft problems. If the worst happens, I will instead rely on hunting large game in a woodlot where my family has a camp.
great video. It is amazing you did that for $10 000. I have been following the concepts of permaculture because it is suppose to require less work. People have no concept of how much work it is to grow your own food or the amazing benefits.

you need someplace green. there's nothing but desert all around you bro. in the meantime, you can put up tarps over your animals and veggies or just muslim type cloth or sheets, and fix up a mister for the animals. you can also dig down 3 feet or so where they can roost in the cool. good luck

you can make a solar panel have a battery system and it will easily run that well pump , cant grow much in the desert you better get into raising rabbit , cheap a fast food , put the animals pens into the ground so they dont die , the plants and pens should have a dam solar shade over them ,

Hey Jimmy, I know you posted this last year, but:
consider the following:
1. Shade cloth has been mentioned -makes a BIG difference to general local climate if used on large scale.
2. Windmill for the water pump has been mentioned.
Water household has not been mentioned. Go out and find any useless succulents and deep tapping plants that drench your ground water. Try to do the same for your entire rain catchment area. Talk to your neighbors about it. They might just love you for it.
Good luck!

A little idea . Spend some money on solar pannels and dig a basement to put them on . Not on the roof of the house ! . Make hall ways in that basement and put your pannels on the walls . Big mirrors on the ceiling and the floor . and hang economic lightbulbs in the middle of those hall-ways . These lightbulbs will suck a little bit of electricity , but nothing compared with the Power you're getting from them . That way you can have power 24 hours a day, and no need a hand-water-pump anymore...

" "Provide neither gold, nor silver, nor brass in your purses"

@keepdancingmaria Mistrust in the Savior? God uses secondary causes to bring about his goals. Being self-sustaining is wisdom. Read the book of Proverbs.
Jesus warned his followers in Jerusalem to escape to the mountains when they see foreign armies surrounding the city. But if we did what you think is proper, you would have had them remain in the city because preparing to escape would be a sign of unbelief.
But he warned them about something that happened FORTY years after!

@RememberPaulRevere My parents raised goats and chickens for about 20 years and also pigs, turkeys and sheep at times. So I'm familiar with how difficult it is to find good quality feed, like alfalfa for the goats. All that work they did seems like futility in hindsight. I've been on a vegan diet for ten years and am still in good health.

@SimperingSimpleton
I think it well and good to have both and alfalfa is not grown in most areas, thus goats eat native grasses as do cattle. Chickens raised free range are not fed grains etc during most of the year, only those in coops.
Being a veggie eater is fine, but what if veggies are not available, what would one eat then? Milk from goats, cows can be made into and used in many things, butter, cheese, etc.

Jimmy. Practically everything the banks 'monetize' as collateral for loans is hard assets but they are not assets to us at all because we must collateralize them to get the medium-of-exchange. Then, the banks (because we allow it) turn the 'hard assets' into 'assets' to the bank and debts to you.
Even after preparing for and going through a 'collapse' you will again turn your 'hard assets' into 'whatever currency they will take', just like now. What sense does that make?

@bigbono12 Considering that you didn't say anything in response to my gift of wisdom to you in my previous comment, perhaps it's too much at this time for you to connect with God through prayer. If you are sincere it will come. On the material level the only place physically safe in the US and where you could survive the way you want to, that is by independent farming is Hawaii. There you have it, 2 gifts from me: 1 spiritual 1 material suggestion.

@bigbono12 Hi big bono sorry I have not had time to get on my computer lately that is why I did not respond. Yes I already pray. I would like to go to Hawaii but it's too expensive and I get a little nervous with all the volcanoes. I was also thinking east like Idaho or indiana? All I can do is make a decision to set up some place and do my best no matter what comes. That is all anyone can do - and pray like you said

What a tragedy the USA is, and they still continue to make nuclear bombs and bully the world with war and sanstions etc.while their people can hardly feed themselves. Madness. Justice will come in full for the USA, for reality always wins even if it is constantly being denied.

@inhalefarts - the intent of this video is not just telling people how hard it is to farm in the desert, farming is hard work period no matter where you live. The point was mostly that place like Phoenix and Tucson are like islands in the middle of no where. What happens when trucks stop bringing in supplies?
jimmy40290 3 months ago
Sometime in the 70's—TMEN, had an article on french intensive agriculture, showing that, a 10x10—100 sq. ft. of good soil could supply all the vegetables for a family of four. Then your meat—rabbits with underground access for nesting, . . . or catfish farming.
In the 30's, Helen and Scott Nearing showed that, without power tools, 4hrs/day supplied enough labor to provide for one's needs, . . .

@phillipgaley - I like this and this is what I am shooting for at my new property. I am going for raised beds but just going to try and supply food for me, the family, and close friends. If I do any selling it will be honey and bee products because they are the least labor intensive. I am definately going to down size at the new place!!!

@IkeDyson71 this dude will not admit it to you but i can gaurantee you he is heavily armed and if you are starving he will kill your ass rather than share his food with you. selfish bastard ! if it goes down like that i'm gonna share everything i got and then go down like a man with honor and true luv and charity for his fellow man. that's what JESUS would have done. Pax CHRISTI ( peace of CHRIST)

Okay.
If it goes down like that, I will not be stocking up on foodstuffs, just so folk can come along, kill me, and take my supplies. Instead, I plan to derive nourishment from a source that will never run out. I plan to eat PEOPLE!
Yes, I'm going to become a cannibal, and kill people, and cook them. The only thing I'll be hoarding is a recipe book!

See all those obese fatties that are always stuffing their faces with junk food? I don't want them. They'll be safe from me. But all those guys that work out in the gym every day - they're the ones I'll be "hunting"!
I want lean meat, and gravy, with no fat like the chops my wife did for dinner last night.

I would rather offer them a place to stay and food to eat if they help me protect what I have and work for their supper. I believe in Christ and he taught men how to fish instead of just handing it to them.

@jimmy40290 what if there are 200 people outside your door who are starving and to weak to work for you or protect your stash for you ?
jcbluefunk 3 months ago
@jcbluefunk - it's not going to happen that way. As I said before people are going to stay at home as long as they can using up what little resources they have there. Only after the resources are used up in their home will they venture out but close, by this point they have already started getting weak. They will stay in town and wait for government assistance even if it takes days - look at Katrina. By then I don't think many will make it to my place out in the desert in the middle of no where.
jimmy40290 3 months ago
@jimmy40290 you didn't answer my question and what makes you think that you can predict how things will go down ? you seem to think that not many will find you but maybe one person by the grace of GOD will find you and help others by telling them about your stash. then you will be besieged by multitudes,most likely also armed like most americans. also there could be invading armed forces or even your own government forces that can track you down easily and put you in a fema camp.
jcbluefunk 3 months ago
@jcbluefunk - The bottom line answer to your question is you are right. I will do what I have to do to make sure my family eats and those in my community who are part of my support will have my support as well. I have been living this life for four years now, sometimes my hands bleed from blisters on Saturday from turning soil while others are at the local sportsbar having a beer and watching their favorite team. Sometimes I have spent my last dollar on feed for animals while others are able

@jcbluefunk continued - to buy the latest cool gadget. This isn't the life I want or would choose. I do it because I make smart choices. Like when I sold all my real estate in 2005-2006 because I looked at the REIT charts and knew the market was topping out. If you want to get religious then here is a story for you. God had Noah build the ark and he spent months even years building it. During that time Noah warned and warned everyone that the flood was coming but everyone thought and said he
jimmy40290 3 months ago
@jcbluefunk continued - was crazy. When the rain finally came God shut the door of the ark after Noah and his family went inside and sealed it. Noah heard everyone outside screaming and crying to let them in but it was too late. The door was sealed shut, and so was their window of opportunity. So...jcbluefunk as you are watching my vids and the vids from others like mine, you are being warned - so please prepare. Prepare so people like me don't have to defend ourselves from people like you.
jimmy40290 3 months ago
@jimmy40290 you don't have to defend yourself from me, which you should realize from my first comment. your main concern should be when you breath your last breath. then your eternal soul belongs to GOD who created you and knows everything you did in your life including the fact that you did not practice the greatest virtue of all, CHARITY ! GOD created you with free will, it is up to you- HEAVEN or hell. your reference to NOAH, a true prophet of GOD, is ridiculous. Kyrie Eleison.
jcbluefunk 3 months ago
@jcbluefunk - Ok Kyrie, I disagree with you and your interpretation of the bible but that's ok. We don't know each other and you really don't know what kind of person I am (whether charitable or not) by watching a few of my videos. I am at piece with God, and I do feel it is my responsibility to prepare myself and my family. We each choose our paths according to what we believe and there are consequences for those choices whether you choose my path or yours. Good luck to you.

@phillipgaley
Hey, if the war doesn't start until 2013, like yuou say, guess I got time to work on my plan. I'm going to Africa, a part where they have no technology, where they are still totally primitive, and still hunt for food. I'm going to take a few items of technology, like solar-powered radios, wind-up toys, etc. When they see that, they will fall at my feet, and worship me.
On the other hand, they may decide to EAT me. Ha ha ha ha ha ha ha....

@IkeDyson71 Well, to return to a serious note, I have thought that, I would like to play Maputo (piano); and to me, Mozambique is tremendously attractive—it's not primitive, and has the maybe the fastest growing economy on that continent, and is rich in natural resources and possessed of a fantastic culture, . . . BUT, . . . they do drive on the left, . . . so, I don't know, . . .

You have obviously worked very hard, with your brother, and now you will leave it all to try to find a better place? and start all over when you have what most would hope to have if shtf/econonmy collapse or something happens? I would not leave all that to my brother

@MIRCWOOD I didn't leave it all. I left him with half. The place was like a house of cards. We did not have a sustainable source of water and all that you see there would be dead in 2-3 weeks if not less. Also...the place was not mine and that really bothered me. I was spending alot of money and labor on something that could just be taken away. Now I have my own place. I am actually better off here, and its at about the same level as where I left, and in some cases it's even further along.

How much farm land would you need to support one person's food supply over the year?
MrStillmans 3 months ago
@MrStillmans - We looked at that a long time ago. My brother especially cause he likes to look in to those types of things. I think he said it was something like 1/4 of an acre per person. From what I have seen though it depends on your soil. The better you can get your soil the more you can grow in a smaller and smaller space.
jimmy40290 3 months ago
@jimmy40290 Thanks for the info. I presume there is much variation in land needed, as metabolisms differ so widely, and you would want loads extra in case of pests/weather/theft problems. If the worst happens, I will instead rely on hunting large game in a woodlot where my family has a camp.
