    This raised every hair on my Body ...why,? A couple Days ago my sister who resides in 🇹🇹and I who resides in the US 🇺🇸...had a hard long conversation on the Economy as is in Trini...she was reacting too how expensive a piece of water melon 🍉 was in Massy stores...and I reminded her of our childhood in 🇹🇹 where we harvested almost everything..limes,lemons,Lemons shadow benni, sour sop ,mangoes ,water melon,corn...these things use to waste..and we were always filled,n shared with Neighbors yet still products waste..Now is a time for our people to go back to the land...The Lord said the Earth is the fullness thereof ....but persons chose to build n pave our yards,cut down trees...so what is happening now is supply & Demand...so Economy out of control ....food for thought

      My daughter lives in SC and this is what she does. She pulled away from the maddening crowd and chose the simple, healthy life.

    This is so good, love the idea of replenishing the land, proper eco system.

  • @danechristmas6570
    @danechristmas6570 Před rokem

    Absolutely respect the fact the guy actually understands the science behind concepts like building the soil rhizosphere and using the circular/ecological model to make the business aspect of the farm sustainable. Trinidad produces a LOT of food waste, especially in the agro / fresh produce value chain. Much of that waste ends up in landfills causing serious environmental problems.
    All of that waste can be used as feed inputs for animal husbandry ( especially small-scale poultry farmers ) and / or composting, reducing reliance on expensive feed and fertilizers.
    BTW, full 100% on the vetiver grass around the pond and the swales to reduce erosion.

    Many congratulations on making the move to a more sustainable life. It was of great interest all your projects and showing the process of learning as you go. I lived in Trinidad and saw the abundance and potential of the land so it is heartening to see this. I moved to Portugal to do the same thing here on 1hectare in the hills. 🤗

      The best piece of advice would be to not put too much in cryptocurrencies. Most have no actual use except for those who are already wealthy to pump and dump.

  • @izatrini439
    @izatrini439 Před rokem +1

    BRAVO, this is how people in Wisconsin live, but Trinis only knows 2 states in the US ( Florida and NYC ), which I call ketch ass states. People it have 50 states in the USA, and not everything you see in the news about the US does not represent the whole of the US.
    So stop sucking up the negatives and research the positives of the US. I say research, but TV only focuses on the negatives of the world.
    Anyways I LOVE your farm.
    I live sustainablely in Midwest USA! A great, healthy, positive lifestyle. Great job! 👍 👏 👏 👏 👏
