pumpkin is the largest fruit on earth. which also raises the questions why is the pawpaw considered north Americas largest edible fruit.
Thanks for sharing.
Looks like an awesome project, I would love to keep seeing updates on it these next few years!
That's the plan!
Super valuable video! Thanks for this
I was unable to save the merged file in shp form . any tips.
Great video and concepts.
Glad you liked it!
There are 4 P's. Peace! 😂
Infinite P!s. Just the first P, Planning, can also be divided into 6 Ps - Proper Planning Prevents Piss Poor Performance! Lol.
Holy crap you guys get a 100 inches of rain. We get well under half that and we haven’t irrigated our new Food forest stage 1 since late October last year.
Yes we are spoilt with rain... but as you are experiencing, with right timing and good soil prep you can grow lots with very little rain!
Best tutorial I have ever seen
What's your rainfall pattern like how many months of rain
dear sir i just found out that some red brick powder is stick to magnet but i dont know what kind of metal that powder is made of is it an iron or other material please let me know if you know about it ????
Queensland or NSW? NICE BEDS!
QLD but right on the border!
@@groundedpermaculture1360 I lived in Brissy for ~ 3 years, such a great climate! 👍
Rain is key
That is beautiful. I'm trying to do something like that. Do you ever get frosts? I'm in southern hemisphere subtropical as well, but with frosts.
Yes we do get frosts! And we get them right here around this garden. altho the garden is slightly protected - I've seen frost outside the fence on the open mowed grass - but not inside. There must be enough structure in the fence and vegetation to hold it back when it is mild.
I also grow (permaculture) without irrigation. Slower grow, need to select better, but much less eork, expenses, and easier management. Its a mediterraen climate, sometimes 6 months without rain and a bunch of 40 degrees days.
Couldn't agree more. Thanks
Nailed it
It’ll be interesting to see a follow up video on how it’s grown
I will for sure do that!
Your garden looks like in the tropical country.
Sub-tropical climate ;)
Thank you, my thoughts exactly. How about some logs on the ground?

Fantastic common-sense groundwork, well done Rupert and Grounded mob luvyuz

I used to think that but now I have soil that is hydrophobic sand no matter how much organic matter and goodness I add to it. It's taken 18 months to even get a few tennis ball sized sweet potatoes.
Work with the divine flow design and everything will turn out green, lush and sublime.
The irony, shit is exactly the excuse people need! I am working on laying all the fallen timber on contour and will be building up swales by adding manure and mulch when the finances allow. Time, effort and using whats available i found was the easiest way to get started.
sounds like you got a good plan... time and effort are correlated... got more time? then you can spend less effort... got less time? then you are going to need to put in more effort.
Love your work, really enjoyed the Weedy Garden vid where you all get in a dig a swale. I have 100 acres further inland, and I have been working to regenerate the creek and land to get a food forest going. Keep up the great work.
Love this and it is so true! We were told when we moved here that "You can't grow anything in the high desert" This region specifically, but here we are growing a food forest in northern Nevada!! Building soil was KEY!
yes! I love hearing stories like this!
Maybe planting in swales would help slow erosion.
Nah not in this situation. This is in a riverbank on flood plain.
I want to live where you live.
Come visit! That's a good start.
Your soil is shit. And your a bad farmer and I'm better.
But, but - my soil is almost pure sand! Seriously, the well was drilled to at least 65 feet and it was sand all the way down ;) At the same time, on our low lying acres, the forest duff over the past hundred years or so has built to a depth of 18 inches and more. Where I am working to transition some of the woods into open space that will allow for growing annuals and sun loving perennials I've managed to get grasses established and am building up the forbs and actively adding nitrogen fixers. Taking a page from syntropic agriculture, I view the grasses I'm establishing not as the enemy of my "garden plants" but as part of their food supply ;)
The most difficult soil is sandy and that too saline sand, which we have in desert in UAE Dubai. We grew purslane that mine sodium and potassium excess in one year our sandy soil started to come to life. Ofcz the water requirement was high but with purslane we reduced the amount of salt in the sand and by the time we left our garden in the home as we changed it was dark brown. WE do not rain at all just some showers annually. But you need different plants for different reasons. Sand is not an issue its the salt. Earthworms need grit in their guts and sand is the perfect soil for them to have they grit along with organic material to feed on decaying plant roots, the worms break down the sand in their guts to finer granules and it become loamy sand.
Seems like you a beating your own excuses with good knowledge and actions! Keep going!
I'm newer to dealing w very sandy ( yet compacted... was very DEAD) "soil". I grew up on clay (tho I'm still in WI and not that far away). I haven't put a lot into this place bc I didn't have health & $ to and it's a rental. As much as I'd love to treat every property like my "permanent" ( til Jesus calls me home) homestead, I just can't right now. I did haul in some cow-yard dirt, hoping for a lot of spilled hay etc. in the mix as humus... but it ended up being just more manure-rich sand. Anyway, still learning and getting by, but along with all the no-till, no-dig "greats" and Dr. Elaine, KNF, permaculturists ( good ones) & so on, I highly recommend Pete Kanaris' vlogs of Jim Kovaleski down on his FL property. Now passed on to another's control ( a couple reasons incl. Jim got married and is gunna be full time in Maine now), but all the past vlogs of him there carry a wealth of lil gems & tips for anyone on sand, &/or salt water issues ( like seeping into the well). Another guy - also in FL - once wrote how that once he stopped working compost in, but left it on top, it started sticking around, building soil humus & life etc. . It had been always seeming to just vanish within a few months, without a trace it had been there... .
@ajb.822 For sandy soil, shredded cardboard soaked in a vermicast slurry works wonders if placed on top as a mulch. It then becomes compost. Leaves for leaf mould is also good, but unlikely to be easily found if your environment is largely sandy. You might get to a point with a sandy soil that you can covercrop it to grow a green compost in place above & below ground with minimal fertilizer. Sorghum Sudan grass is excellent for above & below ground mass...but may not grow well in WI. Consult the SARE online cover crop guide. I'd rather bust clay than feed a hungry sandy soil, but you have what you have.
Comercial orchard (anything comercial food prodution) and amateur/self prodution are 2 completly different endenvours. Comercial food prodution have to be financial/economicaly viable. What you are doing there is just having fun. Comparing the 2 makes no sense.
I would love to get into a stand like that with my scythe ;) Talk about chop and drop ;)
I agree completely - while there may be somewhat more work to be done on your site and by people rather than by machines, the actual amount of work involved is very much less than it takes to produce and transport synthetic fertilizers. Not to mention the cost savings in not buying fertilizer, or pesticides.
We struggle with kikuyu here. Is that something you’re working with at your locations? I’d be interested to know your experience planting into kike. Cheers
Yes sir
I needed that to start my day! The giggle and the knowledge. Thanks Rupert 😊 Have a Supercalifragilisticexpialidocious day!
Glad you enjoyed it!
I do the same , you are in the right path. My Avocado trees are big now, it took me 5 years.
Amazing for 4 months of growth! 😊
Theres those wise words!! Imagine spraying anything, especially near water! Its madness and lazy!! Thanks Rupert
I love weeds. Im part Maori and my parents were hippies at heart and I grew up eating a lot of weeds like Puha (milk thistles), wātakirihi (water cress) nettles....the list goes on hahah
Rupert, I've been hunting up permaculture vids and you popped up today 😊Subscribed and looking forward to following your wise words! Hoping to see you at EFF.
Great info and some awesome trees! Can't wait to see them in a few years! 😊
Us too!
