How about pests? I am gardening and spent lots of time battling pest lol
If you really think tshtf event is coming how are you defending this open land farm?
hope you show how you actually process all this for storage
How do you deal with gophers? Are they an issue there? Great work, and awesome video! 🙂
I am in a situation where I am expanding my already existing Children's Community garden to 2 more urban areas. We have done 6600 sq ft for the last 2 yrs. Intensively. We are adding another 6000 sq ft. Most of this has been in my home garden. How do I plan to set aside revenue for utilities next year? Is there a percentage of revenue that I should put aside or should I do the long math. Hahahaha. I should probably just buckle down and do the math huh? I'm so busy my brain falls out.
You are working very well. Can you give me your mail ID or Mail me @ jonam17@gmail.com. then we can discuss our future plans and my one idia
wow do you have a Tesla? nice…
How do I secure water before I buy land?
If you're not growing sweet potatoes yet they're easy to grow once you get past the growing the slips and planting phase. I lay them in potting soil to grow the slips, the water method just gave me lots of rotten potatoes and weak, sickly slips. I start early March and pot the slips in cups until the weather is warm and the roots are well established in the cups. They have great yields and store well so you can replant the following year, plus I love them.
Real life farm ville
Curtis-
Working on my plan to start a commercial farm/homestead kind of thing, and this little farm is super inspiring.
My intentions are to grow microgreens and lettuce aquaponically in a greenhouse. Outside of the greenhouse, however, I intend to put up a market garden, but following this example. Growing for my own sustenance, selling my leftovers.
Hopefully my funding comes through though. If it doesn't my next step is to buy the land and do what you're doing here until I can earn enough to do what I wanted. (Edit: I originally called you chris?? not sure where that came from, been following ya for 3 years :P)
looks like one acre sir, half acre is about 21,000 sqr feet. but well planned and good
Very nice work, man!
So what are you using for pest control?
Im going to SHARE this on the facebook fan page for Curtis Stone and Justin Rhodes https://www.facebook.com/groups/2739370143042658/
fuk yes
I totally agree
If only we cd just take care of our sustenance …! No need to prove anything to anyone about our abilities.
Many of us are already realizing this..
All that we need is everyone – children and adults respect each other and be kind to each other, so that this world is even better place to live
Living with each other in a cooperative manner and just bother about our sustenance and enjoying life
Any fruit trees on the farm?
Of all the messages you've shared, I love your closing thoughts the best!
(shared empowerment!)
What is your water source?
This is encouraging. Fine job.
I love you and what you have accomplished. How did you plow?
Me and the boys want to do this and build a few properties gated cuz we feel that the socialists in the US are going to cause another depression
You need to buy thousands of canning jars to store your food and you guys can do the canning.
What are you going to do when the power grid goes down for your water source.
YOU ARE ABSOLUTELY CORRECT WITH THE PARADIGM CHANGE. WE WILL NOT BE ABLE TO BUY OR SELL UNLESS YOU ACCEPT THE MARK OF THE BEAST.
When the monetary system collapses people will be coming to steal your food. You need to get your solar and wind generator and marine cycle batteries up and running.
I’ve been inspired by Curtis on many different occasions. Through many hours of watching his content I have realized growing my own food is 100% something I can do. I tried growing food last spring on my roof since I lived in a city, no yard. Utter fail, damn squirrels ate everything. So early spring this year I moved to a house with a yard. Started a garden and so far it’s had been a success. I started what I thought was relatively small and after about a month into the season I realized it was WAY too small. That’s okay though because this coming spring Taking all the knowledge I’ve acquired this year through trial and error and using knowledge acquired through the web with great confidence i believe I’ll be able to eat mostly out of my garden. Gardening is something anyone can do and it gives such a strong sense of pride. Thank you Curtis for inspiring me, hopefully in the coming years I can buy a home with property and become mostly self sufficient
Stop moving!! You are making me sick.
Lost me. I'm so dizzy from you constantly moving the camera. I'm bummed because I wanted to learn from your video.
