The best gardening & homesteading channels on Youtube
Grab an Urban Worm Bag: https://shop.epicgardening.com/products/urban-worm-bag Earthworms are one of the most powerful organisms in your garden soil, tirelessly plowing through and turning larger chunks of organic matter into nutrient-rich castings. These castings are colonized by bacteria, fungi, and other organisms in your soil to mobilize nutrients for your plants for EPIC harvests. Let’s practice…
The no till deep mulch method attracts millions of earthworms and eliminates the need for synthetic fertilizers. It’s great for soil building and soil aeration too!
Ever wondered if there’s an alternative to stackable tote systems for vermicomposting? Wonder no more! Flow through systems are typically suspended in the air and only use one chamber to process food scraps into worm castings. Better yet, you don’t have to deal with switching up totes, other bugs laying eggs in your bins, etc.…
Rain this year is coming way too often. A few days of sunshine then a week of rain and low temps. Showing a few projects as well.
Part 2 Just showing what I have going. Recovering from health problems, catching up on projects as well as job search forced me to hold back on my garden this year. In spite of that it appears I have more than I thought or even intended.
First installment of what our garden is looking like. I reduced my ambitions for the garden this as I am still recovering from the long illness but mostly because I have several other projects that absolutely must be done.
Reunited with my oldest friend after 37 years
Part 2 of garden progression and planning.
Walk through of half of the Garden beginnings and it’s progression.
Finally began bed prep on the separated properties. Slow but started. Finishing the grow room video I started last week. This time with the positive stuff.
Just about ready to get more set out. I have a pepper problem I hope someone can help with.

A bit of my springtime prep and what has hindered me for the last week.
I’ve been trying to grow okra for the past 2 years in a northern climate. The first year was a disaster. Last year I got healthy plants but not much produce. This year looks like I may have better success. For the most part I do not try to grow plants that are not native…
Starting the 2017 garden season. It is slow going but will pick up speed. So far we have peas and beets in the ground and a few broccoli seedlings to first test out the cold frame.
The rainwater collection point needed rebuilding.
A simple install turns into a nightmare!
Had not planned on making a third video for this subject of beginning gardening but a few comments on the other two and prepping for this years garden brought to mind a couple more

Getting a bit of an early start this year. Had hoped to get Eggplant/aubergine but am out of seeds. Must order. Have many new ideas this year to try out.
I had many appointments last week and did not get much accomplished. Hopefully more to come.
First cold frame build. Next one should be a bit easier now that I know how I want them. The video starts out a bit slow.
Property overgrew badly while I was ill for several months. Starting over.
Old beds re-made and garden terraced. Realized I had re-learned an old lesson.
Extremely overworked during the early part of the year. Mainly due to an inability to organize by the boss. Middle part of the year very ill due to the overwork…etc. Garden and self sufficiency efforts suffered greatly this year. Will not happen again! In spite of this I still managed some things. Preparing now for…
Finally chiming in on this longtime argument of people making money on Youtube.
Please share to help raise awareness for the 22 veterans that take their lives each day due to PTSD. Doesn’t have to be my video. Plenty of them out there. If you don’t like me then choose another one and share that one.
Following my “lessons learned” from the last few years has enabled me to have more than I thought I would have this year.
