When starting a Food Forest if you want to get disease resistent trees the cost can add up. So then we must ask, is it worth it to start a food forest?

I like your daily updates! Its very inspiring !
any suggestions on where to order non gmo trees?
What about making biochar from the cedar branches (obtain a yield) and inoculating with your chicken coop bedding and then use it in the food forest.Paul said that all he uses is wood chips,compost from his chickens,ash and char.
Wow, you are going to have so much organic food do you have about half an acre to plant? Love your videos and Tuck.
Hey, I just wanted to say that I love your videos so much, you’re so inspiring man. I just made this YouTube account specifically to tell you that and that a month ago, I knew nothing about gardening but since stumbling on to your channel, I’ve already planted my first seed and I’m so happy! Been staying up late watching as much of your videos as I can, they’re full of value and actually really improving my mental state. I’ve been going through a rough patch for a long while..but my outlook on life has changed so much for the better. Didn’t want this to be too long and don’t know if you’re gonna see this but I ultimately just wanted to say thank you 🙂 keep doing what you’re doing, you’re amazing!
Hey James!
yes its worth it but people wouldn't know if they dont try ! gonna be a fun year
pickles rock! food of the gods! lol
Is that a flying dragon trifoliate orange you have? I planted some seeds last year, hoping they sprout, i plan to use them for root stocks of cold hardy satsumas. The trifoliate orange fruits taste pretty horrible, but i still eat them sometimes, may be good for cooking. There are some trifoliate hybrids you should check out, they usually have a better taste and have good cold hardiness, might still need protection in Jersey. Ive got a cold hardy grapefruit, citrange i think its called, a hybrid of a grapefruit and trifoliate, hoping it survived winter here in Va 🙂
Thanks for the pea knowledge! English peas is what I need to try.
Putting in peas and spinach this weekend myself. Lettuce and broccoli starts as well
I planted my Burpee stringless Sugar Snap peas today. i am very ancious to see them grow.
I’ve been procrastinating too. Should have gotten a lot more in the ground but our weather has been weird in Las Vegas. Warm the last couple of weeks and it’s supposed to be high 60’s tomorrow??? Go figure!
Great video, James! We started laying down wood chips this spring! Thank you so much for all the inspiration!
So much awesome in this video, all wrapped into one of my favorite worship songs! Thank you for this, my friend…. PS – Tuck is amazing.
With Tucks carrot obsession it’s a wonder you get any for yourself. 🙂 I have a heart issue so most of my gardening has to be done in raised beds and on the top of terraced walls. I can't be as food "forest" as you …bummer. I'm in NJ too (although more north). You have been an inspiration for me to expand the mini orchard that I started in 2015. I'm afraid my thumb is not as green as yours and I keep getting discouraged. Actually, it’s your garden "failures" that inspire me the most. It reminds me nature makes no promises and you just have to keep plodding along learning from mistakes and replacing what doesn’t work out. Thank you!
Great video. Very inspiring and interesting. I appreciate all you do!
Love your channel also love the music. I just started our food forest last year and can't wait to try some of the stuff you have done. what zone are you in?
But James we are your chicken children. We love your food forest, it's got such yummy things in it. We also enjoy hanging out with you and Tuck.
Orange tree in NJ??!! You MUST get a dibber for planting your peas. It's one of my favorite tools. Great video as always James!
I love sugar snap peas☺
Funny pup, likes to dig carrots! Your videos are great… the music too. Thanks for including us 🙂
Love the tour, hate the music.
I just discovered your channel today, from watching the video update you posted last November or something of the full year of 2017. This whole thing looks absolutely awesome… I'd love to start my own 'food forest' but I'm only in high school right now. Maybe when I move out I'll get the chance to build one, if I'll have the time to maintain it. Gotta keep that as a dream for now, haha.
This channel is great. Everything is so positive, and so inspiring. Thanks for the vids!
When is the best time to plant asparagus?
Tuck is sooooo cute!
Looks so nice! We always soak our pea seeds overnight per Grandfather's instructions.
I believe that's absolutely the right attitude. It will cost money to start a food forest, but it's an investment in one's future. It also doesn't have to be all at once. Start doing one tree at a time get some support species in and before you know it, a fully functional food forest. Thanks for the video.
Can you please recommend a good online seed shop for heirlooms?
