Take 30 Plants

I’m Alison, a woman in my 60s, living alone on a small permaculture farm in rural France - by choice, not by default.
My channel explores independence, identity, and what happens when you stop living the life expected of you and start creating your own.
It’s slow, reflective, and honest... rooted in homesteading, but really about something deeper: starting again, being seen, and refusing to disappear quietly after 50.
The garden, the animals, and the seasons shape my days - growing food, cooking simply, and learning a kind of self-reliance that doesn’t demand perfection.
The name Take 30 Plants comes from a small shift that changed my wellbeing: increasing the diversity of plants I eat, bringing the garden into the kitchen.
This is a space for women over 50 who feel:
• a little invisible
• a little restless
• or ready for something different
You don’t need land, nor a perfect life, to belong here.
Take what’s useful, leave the rest, and go at your own pace.
