www.paypal.me/... - A simple and direct way to ‘tip’ to help support the time and energy we put into making our videos. Thanks so much!
We take a walking tour through our 3 year old permaculture home garden and see how much food can be grown in what was only .1 acres of lawn just a few years ago. Still a ton to learn, lots of gotchas and challenges, but pretty massive production in a short amount of time. We hope people get excited to do it for themselves!
Edible Acres is a full service permaculture nursery located in the Finger Lakes area of NY state. We grow all layers of perennial food forest systems and provide super hardy, edible, useful, medicinal, easy to propagate, perennial plants for sale locally or for shipping around the country...

your voice is the "Bob Ross" of gardening. Beautiful garden. grow food not lawns!!
Yes!
Haha I hear it! Love that
Oh my gosh. So exciting. You should write a book! I'd buy it! So glad my new zealand facebook permaculture group recommended you
I just got hooked on your videos. Once you spoke of your wet soil conditions I knew I would be a fan for good! I live on ten-acre wetlands and I grow our food crops mostly in pots because of our soil conditions but now I am going to start making raised beds for some of my gardenings and see how it goes. I also have a lot of shade so I am going to have to make mini gardens here and there as I can find pockets of sun. Thank you for your videos and please keep them coming as they are so valuable to all of us.
This is one of the most soothing videos I've seen in a while.
Very pleasant voice. Also the garden looks beautiful to me.
THIS is the video to show anyone who needs even a little convincing! Thank you!
You're welcome :)
So many years and so many helpful videos!
Thank you for slow moving camera.
I like your voice too. You introduce your garden in a very relaxing way.
Don't apologize for length I could look at your garden all day! I hope one day we can buy a house - we rent and can't change the lawns so have to make do with about 6 garden beds, but I will fill them to the brim!
Sallie Bean I have my house but I have small lot and HOA so I can’t do much either.
@@mingsong If you have an HOA, you don't have your own house.
Your videos are inspiring and I learn so much. I am using many of your methods to create my own permaculture paradise.
So glad you find the videos useful!
This was a really wonderful video. Me and my girlfriend have started a native flower herb and vegetable garden and your simplistic approaches have really kickstarted our success. Last year we put in some fruits like blue sausage fruit blueberries and new fruit trees. Me and my friend are transforming an abandoned urban lot into an allotment of production. I have a few small ponds using the liners and having just put down 25 cubic yards of wood chips back there I'm layering the pond gunk right on top. Started using cardboard and grass clippings as mulch in between the rows and the wilder sections but hoping to dig in a few smaller ponds to serve as a frog habitat and compost harvesting. There's so much beauty to see and build even in the darkest of times. Thanks again for all of your simple teachings and inspiration.
What an awesome thing to read! So so many cool projects underway, kudos! Blue sausage fruit, yeah, go for it! We have one growing but haven't had the fruit yet... So many fun plants to get to know out in that wworld!
You don't need to apologize for length. Your videos have always been inspirational and informative. Great job and please keep them coming!
You have a really nice voice for narrating videos. And it was interesting to hear the challeges of farming where the ground is too wet because in most videos the farmers challenge is the ground is too dry. Thanks for the upload.
My pleasure, and thanks for the kind words!
Add Wood chips to absorb the water. Humus for nutrients and you are golden...if you need to slope the ground a little and be strategic where you plant for the best water usage.
Beautiful garden-you've really made a special place full of good food. Thanks for sharing
I love to have this kind of garden, you give your viewer nice tour into your garden, very inspiring. Thanks for sharing this video.
beautiful garden! i could watch this all day...
I came across this video and I’m so glad that I watched it. We finally bought a house and it has a small land that I can turn into a garden just like yours. I have no idea on how to grow food, but watching some videos here in UA-cam on how to garden makes me excited for the spring 😁Thank you for showing your garden ❤️
Best of luck to you! If we can make it happen I bet you can too!
THANK YOU!! This is amazingly inspirational. I am moving next month to our Permaculture Homestead in northern Minnesota where we will be starting our garden in the spring. I have been feeling trepidation in how tough this will be as my husband and I are novice gardeners but your video gives me hope that we will be successful. We'll be about 2.5 degrees higher in latitude but I am excited to see exactly how much we can grow. Our friends in Bloomington, Indiana had a fig tree by using a microclimate on the corner of their home and as my husband's PDC was done with them, we we've got some good training. I plan to watch lots of videos this winter in preparation as well. Thanks for this lovely, concise, and inspiring example. I'm sharing with the hubby now! :)
Thanks for the super kind words! Best of luck to you on your adventure! Just start and learn and it will come together. Tons of things won't work and there is a lot of disappointment to have potentially but if you consider it all a learning adventure the whole thing is wonderful and then the food you get is just icing!
This amazes me. I hear so much about how your wood chips should only be on top of your soil yet you have shown us that compost on top of chips works wonderfully.
wow, I love how rambunctious your garden is! These are my favourite types of gardens
Lovely food forest. I surprised myself by watching the whole video, usually 13mins is long for me. I guess it's ur camera and the scenery. Very very pleasant. .1ac seriously, u did amazing job
Just getting started in doing away with the lawn ! Thanks for taking the time to share :) from sunny rainy Devon U.K.
So many plants I don't recognise, I'm feeling inspired to learn more!
I’m discovering you and it’s just amazing
Thank you so much for the motivation you are giving
Peace from France
So happy to have you with us Mohamed!
those bolted lettuces are so pretty to look at
I just bought an acre of land in Costa Rica, 2300' above sea level. A waterfall, great soil and spring water. I want to do this ...I'll share more soon.
Thank you for this video.
Sounds exciting!
Love you garden and video. Don't apologize for longer video...it was awesome. Thank you for sharing.
Subscribed! Your channel is very encouraging for someone, anyone, who wants to grow his/her own foods but thinks s/he has to have a big yard, raised beds, greenhouse, etc. Those can come later (or some will never come, like green house) but start with... planting!
A beautiful garden, thank you for sharing your knowledge .
Very impressive. Great video.
I empathise where a very wet site goes I have the same issues. Great video thanks for sharing!
I was raised in Burdett, NY. The area is beautiful, but frigid winters. Thanks for sharing. God bless America.
Another great video. Thanks so much. My hubby & I (our kids too) bought 16 acres this year. We want to grow most our food, start a farm & business.
We have physical disabilities & that drew us to work smart not hard down the permaculture road. We aren't getting younger. Lol. So plan for our "retirement" so to speak & create a beautiful oasis to live in.
My daughter convinced me to start a you tube channel to show that even people with disabilities can do it & encourage others who don't think they can homestead. I'm excited for our future!!
Again thanks for the videos they are a rich source of information & you have such a humble spirit & i can hear the love in your voice for your plants. It's quite special.
Thanks for the kind words. I wish you luck with your project. Sounds like a really rich and worthwhile adventure you and your family are on...
thank you so much for this ! We are just starting our permaculture spot on 5 acres and need all the help we could get !!!
I'm glad you are finding the content here useful. Good luck with your project!
Love how you are inspiring others! You make me want to get out in a garden, darn urban life atm. I'm growing indoors though! My tomato and green beans are trellising on my window in front of me :D !
LoveVibez You can always grow in containers. Tomatoes, zucchini and greens (Swiss chard, collards, kale, mustard) all grow well in 5 gallon buckets! I've also seen people grow romaine lettuce and other shallower crops in deep dish pans. :)
Bravo ! Food not lawns. Been my motto for some time.
Thank you for showing this video
Beautiful garden!😊
What a gorgeous garden!
Thanks kindly!
Fabulous! Love your enthusiasm! I am not a lawn lover, so this is right up my alley. Thanks for the inspiration!
i agree narrator"s voice is good and inspiring
Love your videos! - Thanks for sharing! - I have 7 acres in Nebraska that I want to do something with, like this. I really want an earthship like home and NE wouldn't allow it. I have a half made hugal mound that I started a year ago. I currently work carpentry in CO. Cheers! LV
You two really are an inspiration. What a beautiful place. So, so dreamy. I can't wait to get on some land.
breathtaking
This is Fantastic! Well Done, really inspiring. Thanks for sharing.
very nice!!! congratulations!!! from BALKAN.
Hi from Australia and have bought an acre recently, we wont be living on it for a few years but will be creating a garden and planting many trees in a couple of months. Too hot at the moment and just waiting to get a container on the block. Then we can stay there for a full day as it's a good hour and a half from where we are living.Love your garden and have created a smaller version where we are currently living.
very nice
Looks beautiful brother, keep up the good work.
Wowwie! So much better than a lawn
Love this so much! Thank you for sharing. We have a lot of land, and a small garden but plan to make a very large renovation to make garden 80% of our yard. So inspiring!
Wow. That's really inspiring. My home has 0.1 acre yard too and I just start my own garden. But I have a problem with soil fertility so the production didn't go well. I try to make compost, vermicompost and mulching. Hope it will improve like your video.
The more soil life you can build and diversity of context (south facing, north facing, wetter, drier, etc. etc.) you can provide it seems the better things go overall. Good luck and have fun!
Excellent video, beautiful garden💕
Your garden is such a majestic and calming place :)
Very inspiring thank you. I have started planting on my lawn here in Australia. Love your videos. You’re an awesome teacher. So good how you point to things that you’re talking about.
Awesome! We’ve been heading the same way in our small yard on the Jersey Shore! Well done!
thanks my Friend.. inspired to continue w/my 1st Permaculture attempt..
Nice tour. Best wishes Bob.
Thank you. Very inspiring. I love it that your emphasis is to be encouraging and empowering. Blessings
I decided to binge your "tour" videos, hoping to get some pointers on how to continue to build guilds. I confess, I either forget good combinations or I don't learn fast! 😂😂😂 I am quite dry here but so far, your videos HAVE really helped my garden out! Thank you for taking the time to film this!
Truly our pleasure. I believe that a lot of the practices we use would be helpful for a dry situation as well... The high density, deep mulch, complex plant arrangements, etc...
It's beautiful... thank you for posting.
It's a lot of fun to share.
It’s absolutely amazing! So beautiful.
Looks amazing! Would be very interested in understanding the nuts and bolts, keep the videos coming!
lovely garden
Beautiful !
Great video to watch up here on the Gaspe Coast of Canada as I look through my seed catalogues with snow everywhere. You have done some incredible work on your property... very inspiring!
I'm glad... I like to watch the summer videos sometimes in the winter, too, and try to remember why we're doing all this! Now the snow is gone and things are thawing out nicely and the growing season is starting to really get under way. Very exciting! Happy warming time to you!
Wonderful video, thank you. You've inspired me to get out in the garden this weekend and plant some more
So inspiring!
what a wonderful garden. I love it , its one of the best gardens I've seen this year.i love the way you made the beds seems very productive. I love gardening as well, thanks for sharing. happy gardening!!
Awesome job!
Love your videos... thank you so much for the inspirations!
You have a great garden. I wish mine looked that good
It's a continual process, and evolving every year.
Love this! I am currently awaiting the arrival of 11 new fruit trees! I am still in the designing stage of my permaculture garden. Designing, meaning developing it, a little at a time. I have physical limitations so things take a little longer. I currently have 6 Papaya trees, 3 lemon trees, two red bananas, two Mulberry trees, two grapefruits, a Blood Orange, a Mandarin Orange, 5 baby Kumquat trees, two Apple trees + one stock apple tree. I'm also starting to get into perennial vegetables and ones that readily reseed. I have Asparagus, Society Garlic, Oregano (grows great!), Thyme, wild Chives, tons of Turmeric, Ginger root, and Carrots, Leeks, and Cilantro that I let reseed where they want.
Wow, so many great plants, good for you!
That's beautiful brother
Lovely man, so nice to see.
Beautiful garden, I really like the mixed shaped beds. I'm expanding next year sometime in preparation for 2022 spring and I'm going to try this. The slope that I'm going to develop with this method would certainly slow down the run off and with those small catchment ponds, even better. Nice work.
I tore out my lawn about 12 yrs ago You have a great garden.
I bet in 12 years you got a lot going at your spot.
Astonishing. Well done. Very inspirational.
Wonderful, thank you.
Beautiful garden, thank you for the tour.
Very interested in the perennial plants you have added to the garden. Would love a little video on that! Thanks a lot for the work
You'll start seeing more and more of that this season as things start waking up and we begin harvesting. For now we've got some videos in the pipeline talking about propagating and growing them, we'll show how we use them as time allows! Thanks for your interest.
Gorgeous and inspirational!
Its amazing what you have done. Beautiful and edible. I always in awe when i see beautiful gardens. I have no forsight, so i just try raised beds. No imagination as to what if i do this or that. Take care.
We didn't have any foresight with this project, no master plan that we executed, it's all just getting figured out each year as we go along.
Good stuff! Keep on growing!! Thumbs up!!!
Bravo, beau travail. Want to see how you pile up layers to have good soil to plant. --- I'm in Québec, Canada and hope to visit you when i have the opportunity to go to US.
I love living in the country side but can't afford to buy any property right now just small yard , love the funnel so sweet
You can do a lot with a small yard...
I can't wait to start my garden in a few months. I'm in NY state also.
I’m going to base my flower farm off this method. Of course ill also be growing fruit and veg for myself and some melons for market.
Best of luck!
That really is a very beautiful garden!
just found your site love your videos
Really well presented, thanks for sharing!
Thank you for this wonderful video and for sharing some insights! It is very inspiring.
I'm in the process of watching all your videos and learning so much. Wow! I want to thank you for sharing your knowledge , time and life with us. It's crazy what you've done. I only wish I had the time to do something like this. I'm 63 and probably won't live long enough. Ha I do have a nice garden tho.
You video is good, great farm
Thank you for showing us your garden it was beautiful. Food not lawns. Great video. Food Wonderful Food. 😉✔🍒🍉
Beautiful video & inspiring narration... as usual with your YT Channel! :-)
The red weed you are referring (7:54) to is a vegetable called red spinach. it’s used extensively in India.
Thanks!
