Hidden away in a rural village is Wade’s incredible permaculture backyard that is full of abundance. From a vegetable garden to a mini food forest, compost setup, water capture, chickens, ducks, greenhouses and many other things neatly packed together to produce an impressive amount of food from a small space. In this video, you will learn what the best apple rootstock is for small spaces, which potato variety works particularly well for Wade, his no dig approach to growing food, what permaculture is, and lots more! I hope you get inspired as much as I did when I visited. Get a copy of Wade’s orchard book here: https://shop.permaculture.co.uk/the-orchard-book-plan.html

Huw you always give us Surprises
I love all the trees around the edges with the garden in the middle! Perfect!
Thank you for this great Video.❤️
Beautiful! I loved catching a glimpse of the Sarracenia in the green house.
What a lovely video, so inspiring. And I completely agree, it's definitely NOT work! It is JOY.
lovely video
What a wonderful interview. I would love to tour around his property….too big a journey from nz!
Great video. I really liked when he said, "grow a variety of vegetables". I'm a small place gardener for several years now. And I experienced that some crops don't do well every year. Peas never worked at my place. Zucchini didn't do well this year. I harvested 3 from one plant and then it was done. My water melons were a great success. I harvested more cucumbers from one plant than I could eat. Garlic wasn't so good. But when I grow lots of different veggies, I always have a harvest. Gardening is being flexible. Carrots in the ground never did well. I grow them in pots now and they' re amazing. There is a learning curve every year. It's always different. And of course nature has the final say.
Love it!
And the globalist Masters want to register/ban growing your own!
Loved this Huw, great job. Inspiring for the regular sized blocks
Stunning and inspiring
Life goals ❤❤
This is beautiful, everything feels at place,the more we grow our own food, the more we make it affordable for others.
Thank you Huw and Wade, what an amazing garden and both you two are living garden legends. Thank you for sharing your life work with us. So much too learn and definitely I can pack some more productive food spaces into my small garden
Nice video
Such a beautiful video! And yes I agree, gardening isn't work, it's relaxation! From the overwhelm of the day and turning of the constant availability.
I only learned where some vegetables come from (peanuts grow an a bush but still underground?!) As a grown up and I love that my son get to learn about it all at a young age instead. So beautiful with different varieties of things and seasons of food. Just keep growing!
What is the soil used in his raised beds?
Great camera work and editing! Beautifully shot. Thanks for putting this together
Beautiful garden. It reminds me a bit of mine except a decade or so older. Though I must say I would love an underground cistern. Not going to happen as I am in a built up area.
I'm so jealous of your beautiful garden in Shropshire!
The Irish Potato Famine or The Great Hunger (a more apt name in my opinion) was the result of a warped political mandate against the millions of poverty stricken peasants. There was food being exported out of the country during the famine years. The restriction of the peasant diet to purely one crop and hence mass starvation was the result of deliberate actons taken by the English overlords. So to say that the "Irish potato famine should be the greatest lesson in why not to do monocultures" or words to that effect is utterly flippant. It is to miss the point. The Great Hunger should be the greatest lesson in how abusing and pillaging a nation's land and people should be avoided at all costs.
