  • I have been growing ing No Spray Fruits and Veggies for the Farmers' Markets for almost 30 years! I make a great living doing this on four acres and have paid off all of my farms and everything! I am happy with this at 45 years old, HOWEVER,......
    There is a burning desire in me that won't quit! I feel the desire to teach YOU, your FAMILY, FRIENDS and the WORLD these tricks and techniques that come to me, in my mind while I farm out in Mother Nature. I GET ideas fed into my mind when outdoors about how to farm using FREE techniques working with Mother Nature. I feel the NEED to educate and TEACH, as I think we are ALL going to need to LEARN these valuable tricks that our ancestors way back when as they farmed outdoors with ideas fed into their minds I invite you to SUBSCRIBE and SHARE these videos from my experience which I learned from my dad, Farmer Paul Midgley 1947-2020.
    Yes YOU can grow Greenhouse fruit crops AND heat your greenhouse with just compost, water mass, and green waste on the sides to insulate. This costs me ZERO in greenhouses just $1000 to build. Subscribe and share with your friends! A shoutout for all Mad Scientist Dreamers out there!

    Great job. I noticed tons of heat coming out of our goat house bedding in the dead of the Manitoba winter. So the composts are really producing lots of heat.

    I have so many questions! Do you have a website or how do I get info on how to set this up?
    Do you get mice?
    How do you keep the temperature stable?
    What are all the water barrels for? Cooling, watering or both?
    Do you get insect problems
    Is there enough sun during Dec/January?
    Where/how do you get an acre of 5’ deep wood chips?
    Does the decomposing straw, grass and leaves stink?
    Stop laughing, I’m sure the answers are some where but I’ve gone down the rabbit hole.
    I’ll stop for now but I have more questions.

      @@georgetaylor9154 the trees seem to grow out of it and hasn’t effected the overall production. The best idea is to power wash the entire orchard. Is an aphid issue and residue left behind. Would gently wash it off the leaves with water outside scrubbing it off. Then neem oil the leaves if your citrus trees. That is awesome you are growing citrus in Maine. Amazing 🤩

      @@jerrynote2405 good question. I have been amazed we haven’t had humidity issues. I believe all the greenery of the trees sucks in the moisture. We don’t water at all from October to May and in the summer we have windows open 24/7 from April to October. No fans or heaters are needed. The trees are all lush and beautiful. Have a new video we will be releasing showing this in the middle of summer. Thanks for watching.
