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. Ok dumb question. I have about 3 inches of straw in my giant raised bed and my swisschard is not deep green and could use a boost. I'd like to add compost on top of soil but do I have to remove the straw first?

  2. When I had chickens I spread my cuttings and bed cleanings in the chicken house. The chickens loved to scratch through it and break it up, contributing their rich droppings making the mulch wonderful!

  3. I've build up to a bit over 50 square metres of food gardens over the last few years. Never gardened anything before. We also have 14 lovely chooks and 13 quail. Now at 58, I see where my passion lays.
    You Mark, are a bloody champion!
    Thanks for the constant info, tips and inspiration.
