- Back to Eden garden Q&A with Paul Gautschi. In this video Paul talks about what broccoli & tomatoes he grows and how he plants when he wants to save seed. He also talks about what he grows in the winter, medicinal plants, growing wheat, what kale he grows and how to get free raspberry plants from him.
"bagels, muffins and stuff, just killing people" Haha Paul your the man. Scary but true
I was searching and searching for info. related to "mixing of seed" for clarification, then finally stopped and prayed about it. Then, suddenly the thought came to mind to search 'Paul Gautschi heirloom seed', and found this. Thank you! Paul has totally answered my questions on this video and one other posted by someone else. Thank you for asking him this. It has been very helpful. :o) God bless!
Great video. Thanks thatnub your the best!
for wheat people can get einkorn wheat which is ancient and uncorrupted grain, which studies have shown even people with celiacs disease can eat and it makes great bread with a nutty delicious flavor
September last year I posted "Back To Eden Tour - Other House" and "Back To Eden Garden Tour - Main House". They were done with the Flip camera so, they are pretty close to what I was shooting. Next time I go up I will do tour videos of both houses again with the new camera so, you can see more.
Thank you so much for this series with Paul! (And thanks to him too!) What a treat!
Thank you Thatnub for making these videos, or else I would be calling Paul every day... Lol. Thanks I hope we will meet you too when we visit Paul, God willing at the end of summer. What about asking Carol to have some tutorials on CZcams? Thanks again!
As always, Fantastic! Thank you.
Thanks for posting this. It answered a few of my questions. Got to try some Kale this year.
I think that would be pretty safe. Good job saving those seeds for so long.
Hello! First of all thank you SO MUCH for your videos! You have no idea how helpful they have been. I absolutely appreciate Paul and his garden ministry! Since watching the film we were motivated to start our own back to Eden garden. I am curious what he suggest about companion planting or where to properly plant certain plants? Look forward to your answer. Thanks!
Like the garden tour idea if he would allow it. Even a distant shot would be cool
actually we live in the far northeastern corner of Alberta, Canada and we have grown everything for over 25 years (& my mother-in-law for over 65 years) **** yes you can grow cucumbers, tomatoes, potatoes, pumpkins, plums, crabapple, Saskatoon berries, raspberries, strawberries, beets, cabbages, Brussels sprouts and so much more ... really do not say no to anything until you try it - please plant what you like to eat & see how it does - some things you will decide to continue & others you will decide are not so great - start the some indoors if need be but plant it, it will grow
I was just wondering because if someone needs some I'll be glad to share. Those berries make excellent wheat bread.
We're in Zone 6 with a crazy spring and surprise frosts, so you have to start inside, you can't put them outside til' May 15. It's a short growing season, so you put them in as big as you can get them. I know local farmers who put them in in April and they pray
can you or have you done a walking tour of his gardens. i love garden tours!
Been looking for this video. Do you have a list of what each video talks about?
Wow! 3a... That puts you in either Canada or northern Wisconsin.
You may know this now, seeing this video is three years old but, einkorn wheat is available in the United States and it is the ancient grain going back probably to the garden of Eden.. it's never been hybridized. it grows very very tall not like today's wheat and it doesn't have a split down the middle of the grain and is a lot smaller than today's grain. That's all I use now and I get it from a company called jovial, online. It is expensive, but they are the least expensive when you figure in shipping because I've never had to pay for shipping through them and it arrives the next business day..

Just an FYI about the wheat. There is a milling / bakery / farm family business is Three Forks Montana called Wheat Montana, where they and their neighbors grow all the wheat that they process into flour and from which they make bakery products. ALL their flour and wheat products are non-GMO, and they also have an organic whole wheat flour. We started buying their flour and bread when we lived in MT, and were very to happy to find Wheat Montana flour here in Missouri as well. Check out their web site and ask at your whole food store.
Oh, yeah, I was thinking you might be able to buy seed from them, since it is actually a family operation and not some big corporate machine.
Just putting this out there, there are so many vegetables you can grow in Alberta, Canada, where we can have some pretty nasty cold winters. I grow a huge garden, and with a greenhouse you can grow tomatoes, cucumbers, and peppers. My parents used to live in NWT and said people even grew quite a bit there, as there is so much sunlight and heat, that when it is summer, although the season is short, there is a lot of growing which goes on in a short time.
Amy Wiggans There is another video on CZcams where Paul talks about greenhouse veggies and why they aren’t good for you. Especially tomatoes. I think it’s titled “Tomatoes, thyme and trucks”. Check it out
I have done a few videos touring his gardens. Check the video responses above the comments for a couple of them.
what would you grow if you lived in the Caribbean
Anna,
Check out the book titled "Four Season Harvest" by Eliot Coleman. It's a great read. You'll love it! He lives in Maine and harvests greens and other vegetables year round. He has implemented some practices done in Europe for hundreds of years. His wife, Barbara Damrosch, is also an author. Maybe you can implement some of his ideas in your garden. Good luck!
God gave me an answer several months ago to the wheat problem, as well as a secondary alternative to using heirloom seeds. Cultivating local wild edibles. One wild edible that was brought over by Polish and German settlers in the late 1800s was what we treat as a pervasive lawn weed, crabgrass. The seeds it produces are not only edible, but produce far more grain than common wheat, rice, oats or any other US-cultivated grain crop. In fact other parts of the world do use the species for making breads and pastas. -- One single acre can produce 17 TONS of grain per year. A small plot can produce continual harvest from early summer to early fall, and of course you can always save this excess grain. Other wild edibles include Broad-Leaf and Long-Leaf Plantains (the leafy green, not the banana-looking plant of the same name), dandelion greens, flowers and even roots, smartweed, purslane, and many more.
I specifically got frustrated with how many seeds have been changed and didn't grow well in apartment situations, so I asked God how I could manage this until I got some land. He answered me with the concept of wild edibles. Little did I realize just how many "weeds" were once cultivated crops in the USA.
Even though there have not been any sanctioned GMO wheat crops since 2001, farmers are still having cross pollination issues with GMO wheat. There was just a case in Oregon at the end of May. Google gmo wheat cross pollination. That should get you to the story. There are more cases but, that is the only one I can remember specifics about.
Does Paul have beehives? Oscar Perone reminds me of Paul in some ways (observation and respect for nature, mostly). Given Colony Collapse Disorder I'd be surprised if he doesn't.
Somewhere in my videos, Paul talks about bees. He does not have any that he cares for but, he has a few wild bee hives on his property.
I have wheat that was stored in '82. Will that work for you?
We are going to start a garden at our church this fall. We have a nice wooded area around us which is home to turkey, deer and rabbits.. My question is, is there a natural way to repel wildlife without having to put up a fence?
Dogs and that's about it. If no dogs you have to fence
Wheat was modified clear back in the 70's. Read the book Wheat Belly by William Davis Chapter 2 is about the creation of modern wheat.
Not anymore. Sometimes searching my channel works but, not all of the content is in the keywords.
What is the recommendation from you or Paul as to where to buy safe wheat or corn for home grinding?
Rhonda Drain I have no clue at all. I will add this question to my next visit.
L2Survive
Thank so much! And I also wondered how did he get his wood chip areas and his lawn to blend flush together? You'd think the chips would be way taller and maybe hard to contain on the edges? I love your videos and love listening to Paul. He's gained so much wisdom and I it is so kind of both of you to share it so freely.
+Rhonda Drain Paul uses railroad ties on his borders
Do me a favor and go to my website (L2Survive) and post this as a question for Paul at the bottom of the Back to Eden garden FAQ.
What hardiness zone does Paul live in?
On your site, you say it's hard to get GMO seeds due to contracts etc... Yet Paul says here that all wheat is GMO. Mind clarifying on this?
i reallly wish to start a system just like this garden of eden!!! BUT IM BROKE hahaha ill get there!! if the hand of creation wishes as well, i will be :)
+Matt More If you're in the US, send me a message. I'm broke and poor too. BUT I got my hands on some seeds from rareseeds.com that I wish to share with other broke people! haha
thank you for the offer!!! i just picked up a nice rainbow assortment from our garden center cost me 20 but its worth it haha
I enjoy these videos so much but sometimes I have a problem hearing Paul as he is speaking. Would it help if you were a little closer as he speaks? I just don't want to miss a word he says :)
i guess i dont see video repoases on my device. thanks though :)
Ask Paul if they would be good for planting --- not because they're old but because I don't believe they were modified back then.
for wheat, just buy spelt. It's wheat as it was thousands of years ago and not modified
