My friend Steven Cornett just quit his job. He quit so he can start his NEW job…farming in San Diego on a quarter acre in his backyard.
His farm is called Nature’s Always Right, because he believes that the best way to grow is to study natural systems and emulate them in his urban plot.
In this video we do a DEEP dive into every aspect of his farm as well as where he’s at in the journey. I HIGHLY encourage you to go subscribe to his channel for more urban farming goodness!

I’ve seen so many Minecraft videos and tech videos that I know what there talking about
What Steven is doing is amazing. Plus those eyebrows!!
The size of the garden looks like 30×30 in total 900 square feet it that true
Respect! Fuck pandemics, fuck politics, fuck global market. This is what we should be going back to!
Oh wow. How flexible you are!!!
That man's eyebrows are a garden all by themselves. And so expressive! lol
does eyebrows tho
Very inspiring, Steven!!!! Thank you both.
mr eyebrows
"Nature's always right"… I'm concerned for your spiritual wellbeing.
You should t need government approval to sell at a farmers market
The way the government tries to control food production is dangerous
both of you are extremely photogenic
As someone with a lower back injury, this guy's focus on his own health in the work is super nice to see.
Years ago one could quit their job and farm on a 12’x30’ plot growing and selling dope! LMAO
I love the idea. This is what the world needs – not giant farms, but small, self-sustainable farms. Government should subsidise sustainable farming and help more people set up their farms like this
Awesome!
You look black whit and Asian al at tje same time you look like you live in texas
Ma bushy brow mans finna busting those carrots dayyyum. Btw you should definitely grow some organic weed
Dude has it going on.
Thks. Gardening in pots is so nurturing to me. This fall…(Atlanta/ga) I am growing kale, lettuces among other things. Thks for your inspiration! Ahna
Great showing.. like it
No need to quit anything for a patch that small. Are you kidding?
Mason hands.
youll need to continue shells regardless if you plan on having eggs
citrus is good for alkaline soil
If you are not harvesting and eating your carrot tops you are wasting a very good salad or soup add in. They are delicious.
what are they doing for pest control? Or is this in California where there are fewer bugs?
