    Did I hear him right when he said his farm could feed 50 families? That's amazing! If 50 families were to bear equal responsible for taking care of a permaculture farm of that size, it would hardly cost any time at all. Permaculture community anyone?

      What an amazing accomplishment!! One of the necessary steps to reversing greenhouse gas emissions, at the same time providing people with clean and nutritious food! I'd love to see countless of these 50+ family feeding local farms near me within the next decade!
      All by myself and with few funds, I've started a 20'x20' vegetable garden in my parents back yard while working 20+ hrs a week and completing my senior year in engineering school. What he said is true, simple trial/error, some youtubing, and purserverence is all this takes to garden/farm like a pro!!!

    The idea of the corrugated sheet metal placed around the trees to protect the trees from the sheep is something I have been searching for! I have some small sheep , Shetland Sheep, which I hoped could be used for weed mowing. But the sheep also like eating the bark off the trees, killing the tree. But then once the tree is shielded the weeds would grow inside of the shield. Then in this video I see how the chickens are incorporated to clean up inside of the corrugated sheet metal, and the metal keeps the soil from being lost when the chickens scratch around looking for bugs! :) A larger/taller wall of corrugated metal could be used to protect the trees from goats (much more of a challenge) in a similar manner, but leave a tiny restricted opening at the bottom to let chickens squeeze in to tend to the area next to the tree trunk.

    Love what Brett says here about trying to minimise your footprint, whatever your living situation might be, via all the little components of your life, such as growing herbs, how much you drive etc. Inspiring. My most recent changes are shampoo and conditioner bars, to reduce plastic use, recycling soft plastics using the RedCycle scheme and standing in a large trug when I shower, then putting that greywater on my garden. It all makes a difference.

    • @Lily-qb1xv
      @Lily-qb1xv Před 3 lety

      Got a question for you; when using the shower water on your garden, does the soap runoff from rinsing affect the plants or the quality of the soil? I love the idea of saving shower water as long at there’s no significant drawbacks.

As much as I have commented on their FB pages, about wanting more on sustainability and permaculture, I find here what I am looking for. Although living in suburbia, I grow some food and will grow more especially now I am getting onto polyculture and square foot gardening. It is a journey and I I feel a peace knowing I am making more of the right decisions for a sustainable future.

    Love this...always inspirational to see what others are doing. 5 years ago we bought a home with a nice size backyard...put gates through to neighbors, got chickens, remediated the very 'sprayed with pesticide' soil with mycelium, put in 11 fruit trees, some berries and vines, raised veggie beds and veggie hugels as well as a herb spiral. We do lasagna gardening which makes it extremely low maintenance.... I also planted over 500 bulbs 2 years ago...gosh they're beautiful when they're all blooming. We also tried mushroom plugs in tree stumps (sadly without success) We're a 3 minute walk away from shops- so see's right it doesn't have to be away from everything. Have wonderful compost and worm bins and make comfrey tea. Built a wee cob cottage, a cob sitting nook and painted old water heaters and made them into benches or art pieces and also revamped an ancient old camper for guests. We love our backyard and all it produces, and the amazing birdlife that has re-appeared as we left stick piles for them, put in a garden pond and a few other water features. Next investment is big water tanks.

    "We're so used to hearing how people are destroying the planet but permaculture shows that our impact doesn't have to be destructive, but can instead be a force for healing the earth and helping other forms of life flourish....When you experience something in life that's really really good, that puts a smile on your face every day, why wouldn't you want to share it?"

    This is my dream ,I absolutely love that kind of living🥰,but dont know if I can, there is too little rains in our area,it's very dry with strong winds. I wonder, do they have a permiculture design for that sort of lands,thanks

    I have noticed, most permaculture enthusiasm starts with illness. I wanted a permaculture food forest long before I got sick, but now with reoccurring illness for 20 years, finding more and more people with food illnesses, finding fake food (fake honey is the latest), unable to do a conventional job, I say "fuck the system, I build, grow, raise, forage and make what I can for myself"
    It's still sad the humans have to come to crises (like serious illness) before they change their destructive ways.

      yea... its a natural progression as far as I'm concerned. We are learning so much about food, nutrition, and health sciences and one of the common threads of the last 2 decades of research is that what we eat and how it is produced plays a huge role in our overall health. At the same time that we have learned that we have also seen a correlated rise in processed foods, sugars and carbs with a simultaneous rise in chronic illness. So it seems that some people would naturally connect those two dots and have the fortitude to do something about it.
      The amazing thing for me was that while health sort of brought me to permaculture it was the blatantly obvious ecologically regenerative impact it has on nature which really blew me away. "How is this not the most common way of farming already?" was the first question I had once I started to really see the light in permaculture.
      Cheers from Pennsylvania!

      There's unfortunately a lot of momentum to the negative aspects of our culture.
      You see the same thing with politicians on social issues. People who've never questioned their bigotry suddenly realize trans people are human beings when it's _their_ child that goes through it and challenges them. All of a sudden they understand, when it was more than possible to have compassion from the beginning.
