    I have been interested in permaculture for years, I left Trinidad in the 80s but am astounded someone has done this amazing work. What a wonderful endeavour.

    Firstly I taught I was being taken for a ride by Foodie Nation did not believe what I was seeing and hearing ,but the daughter convinced me that this place existed in Trinidad.I have the same concern as her father about the soon to be housing settlement . Love it.

  • @izatrini439
    @izatrini439 Před rokem +23

    Yes BRAVO if only the whole of Trinidad had the same mindset.
    As I see it everyone prefer to sit on they lazy behind and complain about food prices going up, instead of doing something about it to help themselves.
    What a great productive family! 👏
    Really love ❤️ this video.
    Tired seeing waste of time politician videos about TT.
    Keep up the great sustainable lifestyle 👏 👍.

    Shout out to my home town of Couva. I was there last year. Man it’s changed a lot. I expected a lot more nature. They tore a lot down. Shout out to you guys for keeping a place like this going. I love it. You all are doing a wonderful job. There needs to be so much more Trinis like you. God bless.

    Since January 2022 I have been looking at Permaculture on CZcams, so I am excited to see someone in Trinidad that is not only doing but have been doing it for over 20 years. God willing I will be visiting this amazing farm this year, and I hope to walk away with more knowledge that I can apply. Thank you for focusing on this farm Foodie Nation.
