Self Sufficient Me is based on our small 3-acre property/homestead in SE Queensland Australia about 45kms north of Brisbane – the climate is subtropical (similar to Florida). I started Self Sufficient Me in 2011 as a blog website project where I document and write about backyard food growing, self-sufficiency, and urban farming in general. I love sharing my foodie and DIY adventures online so come along with me and let’s get into it! Cheers, Mark 🙂

  1. Maaahhhkkk,, [can't help myself]… I live in Arizona and we have arid and semiarid subtropical climate. We grow all year but the summers can get so hot it burns things off if we don't use gardeners mesh cover to control the amounts of sun over our beds. Since we only get around 10 inches of rain each year, we have to collect all that we can. Also our watertable keeps dropping more and more each year so to dig wells we are talking 350 feet down or more. So a person has to get very inventive with water collection. The best thing is to have inground [buried] water tanks to collect everything . Cistern/ poly tanks [filtration and infiltration] for all the green needs.

  2. Really interesting. Food for thought. I'm still working full-time, so I have to pace myself: space – limited, passion – plenty, time – limited. But as you say, be SS in something. I'm always inspired by your presentations. (and yes, I like to feel the soil/compost with my hands too!)

  3. You say the worlds not going to end in ten years… but have you not seen what’s going on? And what’s happening? The elites of the world are preparing for it. Satan knows it, he knows his time is short.
    And lastly the Bible tells us this is how it will be right before the end. And it lines up perfectly just as the Bible says. We are at the end of the 6th day and the seventh being the last.

    There’s no denying it if you read your Bible ,

    Love you all, don’t let the is scare you but rather be prepared and watch

  4. Your garden looks wonderful and I totally get your ethos. The UK cold weather and rain is killing off our crops and the warm growing window has reduced to 5 months. Oh to dream of living in Aus.

  5. I think I'm under fertilizing. It seems nothing gets very big, even though I use the fertilizer rates the bag suggests. It seems guys like Mark use so much manure, I mean, he's got to be using a f load to produce that stuff, and all bunched up close together

  6. Hello Mark, what makes your garden so successful is your abundance of variety. You don't get tired of eating the same old thing all the time. Jessie USA Oh yes try to find the Wild Lettuce for a good pain relief its legal here in the USA you can get instructions off the Internet.

  7. I've started to watch your videos nearly every day and really appreciate them!! Just wondering, how do you get by financially? are you guys retired? I think that is the only thing keeping me from changing my lifestyle to a similar one
