  • Watching Geoff brings a smile to my face knowing that soon I will be following his path. Thanks Geoff!

  • Absolutely amazing! We would love to use synergy in our Project :-)

  • Thanks for sharing!

    The presenter speaks of predators. Does this mean that the frogs are my friends and not foes? They consistently burrow a hole around the roots of the tomato plants. Can they damaging the tomato plants? I'm talking about those that are 3-4 inches long. They are dark brown and therefore well camouflaged.

    @3:53 what did he say about frogs, lizards and other predators? They are all ....

  • Can anyone please tell me whether frogs are the friend or foe in a kitchen garden. I'm talking about those that are 3-4 inches long. They are dark brown and therefore well camouflaged. They consistently burrow a hole around the roots of the tomato plants. Are they damaging the tomato plants?

  • I love this video! The host is practically on "cloud nine" in this beautiful, lush kitchen garden. I believe him when he talks about the psychological uplifting effects of working in a place like this, surrounded by the endless variety of colors and scents.

  • Great video I love the concept of a food forest and placing different plant types together to confuse the bugs and incorporating natural bug predators. My garden is a bit more organized (I need this for my own mental sake..lol) but follows many of your concepts. I have now successfully grown plants from bags for those of us who do not have the luxury of a large plot

  • Really like the concept of your food forest and natural predators. However for my on mind I like my garden more organized so I use compost bags and black plastic with drip tape to keep evenly watered. When fully grown my vegetable garden looks great.
