I love how you show (vs, tell) how to do things like add fencing and using contractor's paper. You will save people like me so many missteps. Seeing the tools and how to use them is invaluable. I will be adding a food forest to my front yard and I've been wondering how to deal with all of the sod. I have put in a call to the tree guy for wood chips, already! Thank you for all you do; you provide an immeasurable service. Know that you are so appreciated.
James i love your videos and your helpful, informative sharing.
Do you have an aerial view of your food forest along with orientations? I'm fascinated to see that if you could provide it. I'm in the planning stage of my own food forest, but having to work with a sloping site with 12 silver birch and 2 alder trees that have tree preservation orders on them.
I do plan on taking out a horse chestnut, Scots pine and sisal oak to open up the site as best as I can.
Do you need to get perms to build garden fences in Edison NJ?
Get a set needle nose vise grips and clamp it to the u nail and hammer it.i will help you avoid hitting your fingers
What is the mailbox for?
Working on my food Forrest in southwest FL. My soil is unbelievably poor. Got my chips from some guys working in my neighborhood. Chip drop does nada.
The whole fence lesson was very exciting, to me! I watch a lot of permaculture , food forest info posts. I am old , just on my 3rd year of gardening, and on an extremely limited $$$$$. So seeing real howtoo’s are very very not boring to me. (btw this is the third year of I am never cutting my grass again gardening in an urban setting. I have actually amazed at what I have accomplished) So a big fat thank you for your ever-so-helpful channel.
I am an undertaker. Caskets come in huge pieces of cardboard. I think l will use the cardboard and put down about a foot of wood chips. I do plan to have a good fence around the whole property.
My question is this: Do l need put down compost over the cardboard and under the wood chips?
God bless America!
I love your channel.

Isnt black locust poisonous?
I’ve been following your channel for a couple of years and just started my front yard gardening at my new house. This is a great forage that encourages me to set up my food forest. My neighbors have been staring my front yard with curiosity every time they walk their dogs by.
Tuck is the best security guard pound for pound
James, how did you build your hen house? Did you have plans for it?
GLOBAL WARMING AND FOOD FORESTRY WILL FEED YOUR PLANET!!!!!!!!
YOUR TOTALLY AWESOME JIMMY P!!!!!! FROM CLARA AT THE NAIL SALON!!!!!
I can't even express how helpful this video is to me. So glad I came across it today. I've been researching how best to build a critter-deterring fence for weeks! Thank you so much for sharing this!! All the best to you and Tuck!
Do you have any trick to deal with squirrels? They destroy my pears and peaches. Thanks, James. Great and beautiful job. I bet the second food forest will be gorgeous. Love it
Love your content. How are you protecting your harvests from squirrels?
I needed a fence around the 40' by 20' church garden and I did it very similar to the way you did it but yours is better.
Much Love
Doesn't the bird's love
pickin Into all your
apple peach tree's,
and eating up all your
berrys & grapes etc…?
I so agree with a fence to protect your investment. I’m 71 and 5’3” and have put up rolls of weld wire fencing to keep out deer, raccoon, fox, coyotes, rabbits and bears from gardens and orchard. We live in Oregon in the forest and everything wants to eat what you grow or raise.
I generally use weld wire, and hardware cloth with t-posts and clips. Game fencing needed 10’x6” w treated lumber posts with sturdy staples. Hardware cloth for a predator apron around fencing to keep chickens safe.
I like the idea of your solid corner post.
What book are you referring to?
Good fences make good neighbors. Especially when your neighbors are little jerk rodents. They got my green beans and half my sunflowers this season.
Great video but galvanized steel DOES go into your food ….it's a lie when the makers say it dosent. It's NOT permaculture at all. Uts dangerous actually after a few years..not long term solution. Don't feed food grown on that to children . Never ever
Post drivers make things so much easier, my dad used one on his farm all the time, especially when fencing
Hold the U nail with needle nose pliers. You never get your fingers in the way
One of my favorite videos you have done thank you for sharing
at 18:25 of the video, can you show how it looks now?
