John, your magical garden should be a requirement in every community.😍
I need to grow some Jerusalem Artichokes!
AHHHHHH this was such a fun video to make and so delicious to enjoy your garden creations! Thank you 🙏 for everything John! You are so appreciated!!
Raw lady why did you wear so many clothes?
@@TropicalRambutan why is what I wear of any concern to you? Why is body image so important? Why can’t we just wear what we want? It was SUPER windy this day and that’s what I chose to wear. Not sure why I have to show more of my body?! Society is so demanding….
OMG. I feel so inferior!!! When Lissa said her variety in ONE week is 83 different raw vegetables, I almost fell off my chair. I hate to admit it, but I absolutely know, we only eat probably 7 different raw vegetables a week. I need to start upping my game and also include foods that I would never think of eating raw. Great video.
Awwww!!! You can do it!!! I believe in you!! ❤️❤️❤️
Two my favorite youtubers in one video! I'm in heaven
I need to add this to the list of what I want to grow! 🤗🎉
Great John, thank you, always need this. That soil looks so healthy, would enjoy playing hands in it. 🙂 and of course your Jicama, pineapple, beet juice with Ginger sounds good. Yummm. Thank you for sharing. Great video.
Awesome video, John! We love Lissa and Nate! So glad they live near you now! That is so cool! We're gonna have to try those sunchokes soon! Yum!
Sunchokes are the best. I've been growing them for a couple years. Can't wait to try them raw! Thanks!
The man’s liver is so healthy. Omg. Look at all the ‘moons’ on his fingers. Very clean & healthy liver! Strong digestion too
Another excellent video John, thank you, love your enthusiasm!! 🌻❤️ My Mom used to grow these in Pa, they did great and the sunchokes were sooo delicious although we ate them steamed with butter 😄
Nice
Great video John and Alissa! I’ve recently started incorporating a prebiotic powder made of green banana and baobab powder into my daily regime and it’s working out well! So vital to feed of microbes!
Kimchi works too
Great information 👍
Thank you
Good info
I hate those sun chokes before and didn't know the name. A friend gave them to me from her garden. They taste amazing, salty
I’m growing yacon in zone 5 and I’m happy with how well it is doing. Is there a way I can save some of the tubers and plant them next spring? I’m writing this in July. Thanks
Alkalize or Die: Superior Health Through Proper Alkaline-Acid Balance. By Theodore A. Baroody
This is a must read for those looking to balance the body.
Bro you and her go good together..
I’m happily married to the cameraman Nate! haha. John is a very good friend of ours 🥰
A good way to eat jicama is to slice it, sprinkle it with chili powder and drizzle lime over it.
I have Sunchokes. I love them. I lave 2 large beds. Mine are organic. I tried Yacon.. I am allergic to Jicama...
how do you get a microbiome test?
We had ours done at Ombré Lab online but Viome does too and a couple others I think
@@RawFoodRomance thank you so much going to do this
Your soil is beautiful. I think when the sunchokes are so small, you should leave them in the ground. Some of the ones Lissa picked were too small. There are usually big ones if you just feel around.
Depends on your climate. The sunchokes in California I grow are alot larger than the Mohave desert grown ones, that don't get so big due to the stress.
John mentions garlic as being good for gut microbiome. Garlic is called nature's antibiotic. So if it kills bacteria how can it be good for our intestinal flora? (I love garlic and hope it IS good for our gut flora but am confused.)
In the 80s, when I created my first 100% Organic Garden, I planted Sunchokes.
The seed catalog said 1 pound of Sunchokes would grow into 7 pounds of Sunchokes. WOW!
What a great profit from an easy to grow veggie!
Well, I planted my 1# of Sunchokes and they grew neat poles and pretty flowers..... BUT!
The Sunchokes DID NOT MAKE 7#. NO!
My Sunchokes produced 50# of WEIGHED CHOKES!!
For a home garden, that was terrific.
For a veggie going to market, that was a HUGE PROFIT!!
PLUS!!! The Sunchokes at the grocery were puny and not robust...... the skin was dry.
My BIODYNAMIC SUNCHOKES were literally hand size... like a BASEBALL, and the skin was thin, edible, and juicy.
We ate the Chokes RAW from the ground and they were delicious.
When I boiled the Chokes they were so soft, fluffy and like Mega Mashed Potatoes but creamier and softer and way, way more flavorful.
We thoroughly enjoyed the Sunchokes we grew and they soon became a favorite veggie and replaced the potatoes.
I used 100% ORGANIC compost to amend my soil.
My Luffa gourds that were supposed to make 7'-10' vines made 150' vines up on the phone poles and electric and cable lines and 50" monster sized gourds filled with gorgeous, energized seeds.
Oh yes, 100% ORGANIC compost was all I used, and my garden was planted by the RUDOLF STEINER BIO-DYNAMIC AGRICULTURE METHOD. IT WORKS!!
Mexicans eat jicama with salt, lemon, and a little chili
It's good with lettuce wraps too mmm
The bacteria in the dirt can have natural b12.
Omg.so big😳👍
We have lots of jicama in my tropical country we at them raw as fruits salad with brown palm sugar chilie
Move over and give the girl some room please 😂
John, you are wasting so much of the Jicuma and yacon with your method of peeling. If you use a veggie peeler, it will finely shave off the outside and leave much
more of the usable portion of the veggies. Hopefully you will learn to use the veggie peeler to show all your fans (me included) how to peel with minimum waste.
