Urban Hillbillies crack me up!

Look at me, I am better than all of you because I can pretend to live like a poor peon! These kids actually believe that they have stumbled upon something new, when in reality mankind has since evolved to a higher standard of living.

Learn some basic Personal Hygiene first, Long Hair & Facial hair is just a filthy breeding ground for bugs & Lose Purple hair!

Communism Sucks, unless you have Rich Parents to see to your other needs, When you're not Playing Commie?

@Sonny9257 Wow Sonny, some really strong opinions there. You should double check your grammar and ethics before you attack others though.

Nice Farm!

@Sonny9257

no....you can do it in half an acre....

@Sonny9257

I have a small garden, and I grow enough veggies to feed my family of four. I think you are the idiot....you PAY for your food.

I like the video ! The soil looks like it will support vegetables well. Are you guys still going strong ? Thanks for sharing your time and talent. tom

@Sonny9257 in what way does teaching young people farm-related skills equal socialism?

[segarza]

@Sonny9257 I do understand what you are saying...but remember they are students, learning something new to them. They must learn to crawl before they can walk the walk. Some might even go on to become real producers on a larger scale. Imagine if just 25% of those 300 million people grew a reasonably sized vegetable garden in their yards....I currently grow a 75ft X 50ft veggie garden for myself, family and neighbors and it produces a huge amount of food for its size.

@segarza I have No Problem with anyone who gardens & wants to sell, trade, barter & or donate the fruits of their labor. Be my guest as I do the same thing, but I am Not a Snotty kid who thinks that I am Saving the planet and therefore a better Person than YOU because of it.

You want to Impress me? Let me see you hook up a Plow to all those phony communists & break up 40 acres, sow seeds, water it, weed it, pick bugs, harvest it, then give it all away!

Then let's see how many return next year!!

[Sonny9257]

@LESSProductions Secondlly, Crude Oil & Gamma Radiation are both Natural & Organic, so with your corruption of these terms just proves the point that you are not concerned with feeding people, but instead making a Political statement that tries to One-Up those you feel are inferior to your Indoctrination. So Save me from your Idealism of Feeding the Poor because you're not.

Third, Socialism Eats the Seed Corn! Which in turn leads to Famine & Starvation, & any student of History would know that!

[Sonny9257]

Ok, I will admit that I was a little harsh in my criticism of this video. First off, 40 acres is the Minimum amount of land needed to grow enough food for one family to live on for a year. 2 to 3 acres means you are growing Salad garnishes & Not approaching anything close to feeding any multitude of hungry people on a continual basis. Only when you begin to see the enormity of feeding 300 million people at a reasonable cost, will you arrive at the conclusion that we are Currently doing that now!

@Sonny9257 Hey, but look at it from a positive perspective...these young people are actually doing something good for mankind and nature. They will be the next generation of farmers. At least there is still some young people that actually want to learn farming and food independence. Young farmers everywhere...I salute you!!
