GJ: now can you fill in $ amounts over number of harvests for bed and include DTM's? And please editorialize about sales channels, uses, best markets for each crop and crop-specific info about pests.

Yay no need to watch this dude talk!
In my experience. A backyard nursery is 10 times more profitable. Landscapers and plant brokers ALWAYS need plants. You don’t even need to stress finding costumers. Unlike the food crop world. Lots and lots of competition. But not with nursery stock. I was selling all through Covid. And extremely easy. Especially small trees. They only need attention 5 months a year in the PNW. I also collect native trees and shrubs from the mountains and sell those all winter. Alpine fir, alpine hemlock, pine, vine maple. My only expense is burlap and twine. About 200 bucks total for the whole season.
Don’t you need a permit to sell plants? And isn’t it illegal to take plants from the forest? Not that anybody would likely see you, I just believe there are laws in my state that would prevent me from doing this.
@ajhomesteadlife If you need a permit to sell plants in your state then you should leave that state.
@@Dontlicktheballoons it’s Massachusetts.
You do need a business license to sell plants, and you just get permits for national forests and logging properties like I do. It's so uncommon now to harvest wild plants. I sell thousands of collected vine maples every year in Seattle. They grow like blackberries here and everyone loves them because you can not grow multi stem vine maple. It only exists in the wild, same reason I sell alpine trees to landscapers for top top dollar. The reason they are alpine trees is because they grow in 5000+ feet, and can not be nursery grown. It's very easy my friend. I've been doing it for many years from November to May. @@Growbacktoyourroots9
Hey Whenmountainsmove
Can I message you somewhere theres a lot of alpine trees in my country like 50-70% of the country is covered in alpine trees.
The abundance of value you give to so many of us for free is nothing short of amazing Curtis. Thank you for what you're doing for the planet and the people, and thanks to your wife who let's it all go down and probably helps behind the scenes too.
Support him if you appreciate his resources.
Where does he order seeds
you know youtube pays him for views right? 1.9 million he probably made 10g off this video alone.
@@travisprugh6347 no matter. The content is awesome
When I see these vedios of people planting health fruits and vegetables and spices it takes me back to song of Solomon Cheaper 4 verse 14 where my parents got my name Saffron from 73 years ago.
Thank you for the video it was very spiritual 🙏 for me
Jesus had Cooking Chef's And they cook delicious food with his precious spices...He would feed his people from his garden he called his garden the garden of life...
May God bless the people who works these gardens 🙏
I am not farming for money, but I just learned that I have been harvesting my greens WRONG. Another great video even if you are not farming to make money. I want to feed my family from my garden for as long as possible throughout the year. Great list of tasty, cost effective crops.
I did that and made all my babies baby food. Grandparents' kids produce from their garden too. My kids never ate anything out of a jar.
I'm not a farmer or even a gardener, but I enjoyed watching this.
beingelmo : I have a farm in Egypt , no too big , but big enough , with a big water tank , and about 2000 mango trees , some orange, and some other things, however coz I live out of Egypt most of the time, and I am alone so I need some woman to run this project for me , I'll pay all expenses to come and see, and if you like it then we'll go on from there, and if not you gained a free trip to Egypt and back . Plz c if you or any of your friends would be interested , best time to travel will be in winter cuz the weather will be fine then .
Are you looking for a wife, haha
why do you need a woman running this project for you? sounds like you're looking for a wife lol
beingelmo i know that right
beingelmo same here. My family comes from long line of farmers but I don't do it.
But this is interesting
You're a major inspiration, Curtis. I'm growing a small organic garden on Oahu. Currently growing, selling and delivering 4 produce baskets weekly and aiming to sell 10 per week starting in July. Little steps!
Aloha from the Big Island, Hannah! We are in Hilo and are market Gardening at 1400 on Mauna Kea. We grow kale, collards, white turnips, radish, daikon, salad mix, greens mix, baby spinach, and cilantro to local health food stores.
Awesome! Do you have a garden Facebook, Instagram, etc.? You can check mine out too at Gardens of Aloha! =)

I have spent days trying to learn about urban farming. You are THE first person I actually enjoy listening to. Great information, you get right to the point, and no product plugs. +1 Sub right here!
+Edina Hodos thank you. I do plug products that I use though. Just FYI.
This is awesome, thanks for the info and inspiration. I have recently done a lot of soul searching and after learning to grow shiitake and oyster mushrooms for fun I have decided to not pursue my career further in healthcare(which I hate) and focus on starting a small farm(my passion) business focusing on mushrooms but I was also wanting to grow arugula and other salad greens as well. This is truly an inspiration for people like me who are on the fence about following their passions.
How are you doing with growing mushrooms and salad greens? Hope your business is thriving.
We just bought a 6 acre farm! I'm glad I found you! I've got a lot of learning and planning to do before next spring!
how has your farm been doing.?
What state did you go with?
That is so cool! That means you could have a couple of goats or a cow for milk and to make cheese and yogurt. LOL! I used to buy raw milk from a local farmer. The milk was still warm. One day I did not get to the farm to pick it up so I had to buy Store whole milk. Kids were SOOOO mad at me. They accused me of watering down the milk. The milk from the farmer always had 1 1/2 cups of cream on the top. Kids were not fat they were skinny! I had to bake and cook constantly to keep them filled up.
@@joshc1821 So far so good, it was neglected for many years, so I've been trying to improve the soil as a start.
@@jamesfink2351 I'm in SW Ontario
Your the best on UA-cam
I have got to get your book.
I'm a personal chef who's interested in growing lettuces and various vegetables to use while cooking for my clients. Thank you Curtis for putting these videos out you're a true inspiration.
Curtis, you're a saint! All the education you've provided me over the years is just phenomenal. Thank you sir, thank you.
You're welcome.
Urban Farmer Curtis Stone where do you sell this
Jeff Fountain Indeed.
Very kind of him to share his knowledge.
@@offgridcurtisstone support him if you appreciate him.
I’m new to this channel. Currently working towards starting my own farm. This channel has provided an incredible amount of knowledge. Thanks for all you do.
Great content. My experience is identical to yours. Spinach and salad mix just fly off my table at market. I've also had GREAT success selling a crop called red orach at market. On the hakurei turnips...I've been eating my tops at home and just started tossing the smaller leaves into my spicy mix, which is mostly mustards, arugula, turnip tops and some smaller fraction of auxiliary greens. it's a little bit of hand work to trim and wash the tops, but l'm selling it for over $10 per pound, so it's close to free money.
The best part of this is it is geographical. If your positioned well, no overhead, well researched, quality product, your competitive. Just........ Do....... It.
Keep growing the legacy! I don't sell from
my gardens but I've improved them to the point people want to buy from them because they look so good. My number one source for gardening info- your book is on my desk at all times for reference.
Great job using that space for more than just grass and making a living too! This is great news. I was hoping but didn't know you could do it. Something that you might like too is symbiotic planting (my term). I'm not sure what it's popular name is right now, but I was talking with a guy that was studying Horticulture at CSU Fort Collins and they were learning which plants fend off which type of pests. You can research the details, but the basics are, bugs hate "stinky" plants or plants that have very strong smells: Marigolds, Camphor, Lemon Grass, Mint, Cilantro, Iris', Garlic, Onions, Eucalyptus, Spruce, (Yes, you can utilize your trees, too!), etc. This also applies to under the ground as with the Iris, Onion, etc.. The Iris is used to keep the potatoe bug at bay, I believe, , while an onion or some other type of strong smelling bulb would keep away the blood worm from turnips or something. there is tremendous symmetry and precision in when to plant which crop to keep their partner crop's nemesis pest at bay or in some cases, dead, while the other crop keeps it's nemesis pest at bay and also allows you to harvest the 1st one while the second one is still underground, then switch and harvest that one while the other recovers etc. Sometimes they use more than 2 in the rotation, sometimes some of them might be perennials planted down a ridge in between the rows, etc. Hope this helps. This is restoring a little bit more balance, or "Shalom" to this planet, one home and property at a time. Great job. :)
I love two things in farming, I love seeing how amazing it is the fast gowing and multiplication of seeds, in some cases they can multiplicate 5X, 10X, 100X or more I think. And I love to see when we plant 1 time and we harvest many times in very shot periods of time. Absolutly amazes me. I'm thinking about starting some small vertical farming business here in Portugal, I don't know yet what I want to cultivate. Anyone has some quick advice for me?
Dude that is so far the best review I have seen. Very detailed and motivational. Thanks for your time.
Might be your best video ever here. Your channel is great!
Dude you got me into hydroponics! I love you Jeb! You're the freakin best dude!
The information you are willing to put out there is always so invaluable.
Keep up the excellent work !
bro you're awesome and have gifts in heaven waiting for you - i'm learning and making the transition - thanks and God bless you !!
My first time watching this gentleman. I can tell he mean what he says and says with honesty and sincerity. I find him educational and informative, I subscribe.
This is awesome it really makes me want to use my yard to start urban farming
I used to deliver for a food company up here in Canada called SYSCO, and we sold tons of fruits & vegetables to restaurants. Your $15-20 salads require a variety of great quality fresh greens & quality chicken. But the profit on those salads compared to the cost of the food & labour is like 500% or more, so yes, they are the breadwinners of the restaurant industry. More so in large cities.
When you sell lettuce, how do you package it so that it stays fresh? How do oyu keep it from wilting?
I rewatched this video my friend. Thank you for this information really is helpful to all of us..
I'm interested in growing food to help meet the needs of the people in my community. What crops would you recommend?
Enjoying a cup of tea and farming/crop videos. Prefect way to relax.
This is the first of your videos I've seen.
They're great inspiration for my gardens, and I'll be watching them from now on.
I love those trees to your left. They look like green arbs. I'm curious what variety of spinach you're growing?
Michael you are my favorite trader Thank you for spending time on lessons
Curtis 5:13 harvesting machine ;-) very cool 😎
Hi Curtis, i came across you channel looking for something else thinking thats the business i needed to start. But after washing your video it wake me up again because i use to grow things an sell from my yard when I was living in NC. And now living in Florida with my daughter for about four years now and wondering what wrong with me , I just can't get it togather. After seeing your video I realize thats it I am not growing things like I use to when I was in Nc. I am ordering your book and i will taking your knowlege and use when I go back to Jamaica and use the style of urban gardening which I used before when i was volunteering at a children home there but now i will use your technique to create an profitabe business for my self. Thanks for sharing.
That was a very honest and informing video. Thanks
like the way you explain both sides of farming, the profit and the marketability thanks so much.....you have a great personality too. Easy to learn from.
damn there really is everything on youtube. i dont even have an interest in this and i watch it :)
Great selection for a Commerical Market Garden, its not private food. its a lot of work, yet
you seem to have it covered, great channel, thanks
Sauteed turnip tops (cime di rapa), better than the actual turnip!
Never had it but will surely try it.
Im starting to become a farmer or gardener so his was helpful

#2 Opium
#3 mushrooms
Kingkhon 187 poppies there isn’t an opium plant
Subscribed. Been farming for 15 years but I only have about 20’ wide by a 40’ long space. Someday I want more space.
I just want to thank you from watching your videos, I now no longer have to go to the grocery store for anything except meats but I go to small family owned meat stores. I never thought by starting out planting tomatoes here in Florida that it would turn into a full grown garden to which my neighbors come to buy food from me at a great discounted price, Florida is great cause can grow all year long well most crops anyway. THANK YOU SOOOO MUCH FOR CHANGING MY LIFE!
Those plants look delicious. Thanks for sharing.
Thank you so much for these videos man. Watch 'em all the time and have learned so much. Much appreciated. Thanks for the good vibes and open mindedness too!
Thank you for the updated information you give in this video. I say it every year, but I really need to get to planting more of these crops!
Here in Greece a farmer sells every lettuce for the of 0,17€...
Thanks Curtis for sharing. Yes the salad mix using Salanova is the best mix I ever grew. Add bit mustard, kale and mizuna it is the best.
sa ra : it all depends what is your market. I sell to restaurants for Salad greens. I mix Salanova Lettuce 50%, Red + Green Kale 10%, Red Frill Mustard 10% and Tatsoi Green Coins or Spinach 20%. The variations of percentage is for reference. You can add more or less as your customers like. I also sell primix salad greens like mesclun mix. But no comparison for Salanova.

investing in crypto now is the only big chance of making money
I wanted to trade Crypto but got confused by the fluctuations in price
I heard that his strategies are really good
Yeah My first investment with Mr Williams earned me profit of over $25,530 US dollars ever since then he has been delivering
he's obviously the best invested 2000USD with him and now I made a profit of 9101USD
Trading crypto with Expert williams has being a game changer for me
Thanks for the info-I'm planning on doing the farmer's market this next spring!
love the channel, seen you on Wranglerstar :)
Another great bundle of info! Interesting to keep up with your methods, markets etc as compared to when you wrote the book. Send all of those "turnip greens" down here to Alabama! We have a market for them!
Amazing tips, only discover Curtis now🙉 all the way from South Africa. Now I am a convert of farming😂
How do you keep the bugs off? Nvm, Just saw the bug nets :)
Everything is looking amazing brother! Are you gonna have any onsite classes again?
what do you think of celery or leaks?
+ThePalatineHill they're great.
Love your video ! I am clueless....never grown anything but I am teachable. I look forward to watching your other videos. I especially need to learn how to get started in my grass covered backyard. I would LOVE to do that for a living !!!! Thx !!!
Thanks Chris for the information. I going to buy your book next month. I will txt`you once I have your book. Glenn
Hi, I would not pretend that this is my favorite channel ever, but it sure is the one I like the most in the "growing subject".
I just had this little question:
How the hell is your salad mix selling at 8$ a pound as raw ingredient? When i did convert your numbers in the metric system I tought I completely fucked my maths, but it seems like there is no problem at all after checking.
Soooooo 8$/pound => 15.42€/kg. For a salad mix. Are prices just randomly 4 times higher in USA than in France? Is it because of some bio/organic label or something ? Or maybe you only sell as premium material to restaurants ?
I wanna know so bad.
+Clément Descat I can't really give you an answer there. All I know is that is the price I can get.
Well, thank you for the quick answer.
All I know is that you must keep this going.
More people grow in France because their family has done it for centuries. Small scale farming had basically disappeared in the US before this organic fad. If the fad becomes a consumer expectation I would expect prices to decline. But you should be proud: French food is the best in the world IMO.
Its 8 cdn dollars
hes in canada not the usa. their money isnt worth shit now. 8$ CND is like 5-6$ US
This is so wonderful I love ❤️ this
Hi Curtis, love your videos! I would not/could not have started without your videos, I've just started to supplying micro greens to restaurants in my area, one problem I'm having is with the sunflower husks sticking to the shoots after sprouting, do you have any tips for this? thank you from England
hi there greg i was just woundering how did u get the retsurants to buy your crop and also how much do you sell it for and witch part of england are you from im from the north west ( the lakes ) i kind of wanted to try this hopeing maybe you could give me abit of advice
Did u donate the lettuce to the soup kitchen or put it in the compost
Very interesting video ... never saw farming as a profitable business with all the fast foods around us. How much space do I need?
Today was the first day of my new career as a farmer. I am starting with no money and only a spearmint and mint clipping. Wish me health luck and success.
MAn I live in a tropical country, so I get to grow stuff all year round, but theres SO MANY BUGS.... They killed my bees and the flowers I planted for them. Guess I need an army of chickens.
Gabberag Some say a great amount of pests means the soil is sick.
Loss of a crop is heart breaking for all your hard work. I have had 2 bad years in Ontario Canada. I found a breakthrough this year. It is very important that you get predatory insects such as dragonflies and ladybugs surrounding your crops as they eat aphids and mites which transmit leaf mosaic virus. I planted exactly 153 impatient plants under a tree and planted 25 squash plants. I harvested 400 squash worth $ 5 a piece. Become a Christian and you too will become a receiver of blessings and abundance as per the book of John Chapter 21 vs 11. Peter catches 153 fish without the net breaking. 153 is the number of abundance.
Gabberag plant some sweet basil and marigolds around your plants that you're trying to eat. See if that helps. I understand peppermint helps to but be careful because it's really invasive. Put that one in pots.
Gabberag bat boxes, bird feeders And plant things that your native pests do not like.
Also you can try pollyculture and avoid planting rows of the same plant it makes it hard for pests to get to all of the same crop at the same time.
Lizards in your part?
Killsocialmedia i was going to say that. Haha it's the tropics, we have bugs.
I grow hydroponic micros in FL on 10 acres. Very cool to see your setup.
Life Flight 101 cost to run hydro on 10 acres?
great teaching
Curtis I just purchased 10 acres in south Texas thinking about organic growing. Any suggestions for a quick turnaround tanks so much love your videos will be watching. Lawrence
Marijuana
how does it help your autisim? i'm autistic and you've made me curious now.
Acoatof Gold I have aspergers, HFA. and cbd helps my brain slow down, honestly a lows me to think more clearly more direct. I'm able to slow my speech down to sound normal when I talk. also, it helps with my epilepsy. my brain is like a hamster wheel spinning so fast notmally. if i smoke or take a drop of oil, the hamster starts walking instead of sprinting on the wheel. that's how Marijuana helps my autism
Devvon Crowder I am interested in cbd for the same reasons. do you take it by itself/supplement with it or do you just use high cbd strains? Does it help better than cannabis alone? I find that some strains give me anxiety and some relieve it.
@Brady 84 well I do two things, I take cbd oil if I have the money. That's pure extracted, in a dropper that you put under your tongue. Normally though, I smoke the plant by itself. I have a friend that grows some wonderful "reggie" as most would call it. It is just some pot, no chemicals no nothjng. It has a higher cbd then thc level. Been smoking on it for years now
Devvon Crowder nice so the oil is pretty good just expensive? lol
I grew romaine lettuce this year and it is amazing how fast it germinates and matures
Can you list your seed sources per crop?
You can get everything he uses from Jonnys seeds, you can find the exact varieties
+Christopher Creamer I love how quick people are to jump and answer questions for this guy. He gets Salanova from Johnnies cause they are the only ones with it under that name. He gets whatever else he can from Canadian suppliers cause their dollar has been taking a beating up there. His micros come from Mumm's and other stuff from elsewhere. There is a video that was done around Jan/feb.
Landscape. I love it how people get wrapped up so much in the semantics of things that they lose sight for the reason behind this in the first place is to spread information. The person seems to be looking for places to purchase the seeds I simply gave them that answer with all the varietals they would want that they see in the videos. If we would stop picking people apart and work together It would be a lot better place for all of us.
to be fair, you did state he gets everything from Johnny's, which is untrue. he states often in his book and elsewhere that he prefers to get local seed, which we should all be doing since local growers know the zone best
Christopher , I agree with you 100 percent on your response to Landscape .. People love to criticize over every little thing . Thank you for the info because I do buy a lot from Johnny's Seeds .
I got land in spain this could work alongside the olives
As always, thanks for the info. I can't stop watching.
Thanks for sharing.
Thanks Curtis, Do you offer seminars for those of us interested in beginning an urban farming business?
Awesome… I was wanting to know where is the best place to grow carrots 🥕?
How does the income from those crops compare with the income you get from UA-cam? I didn't notice ads here, are you doing well with making youtube video's too? You have a really great channel and are putting in a lot of work to make these video's for us all, I sure hope they are paying you well!
At the time this video was shot, I was making most of my living from the farm.
Thanks Curtis, great value, great information.
there's people that pays more than 3$ a pound for lettuce?
Curtis is in Canada.
For anything other than iceberg, absolutely.
5.99 is the standard
Wally-world does all day long. Everyday.
Lettuce often costs way more than $5 per pound in British supermarkets. Because it looks like a lot for your money, gullible people pay for it. We in this household grow our own, outdoors in pots, for much less than 1c per plant, and we can keep harvesting for months.
Thanks brother, it's been mighty helpful!
You mention selling to chefs and restaurants a lot. Do you have a video on how people new to harvesting crops can market and sell to restaurants and chefs successfully?
I have the worst gray, clay soil and nothing will grow in it. Even trees find it difficult because it's so hard. I love watching your videos. Is your farm a multi-acre or is it just a lot?
Excellent!!!! Sent it to my favorite farmer's marketers....
Why you put plastic on your lettuce
Alexander The great I was thinking the same thing. Is it to protect the roots? Or is it for spacing purposes?
Alexander The great I see two benefits to it...
1. Reduce evaporation
2. Restrict sunlight on soil surface to stop weeds from growing
Saurav Das Gupta thank you for the info
Also to keep soil warm I guess
Its called the greenhouse-effect.
Gets warmer underneath it.
Would you mind sharing with us where and how you market the different plants...?
Also, how do you determine pricing...?
Thanks for sharing this information with us.
Have a great day and Be Blessed...!
where do you live Curtis
sounds canadian

check the end of the video - Kelowna, British Columbia, Canada and Google Maps tells me that Kelowna Farmers' Market is at 49 degrees 54 minutes N 119 degrees 25 minutes W
Robert Graybeard Pacific Northwest. Same general climate and growing conditions as Western Washington state and Oregon I think. Oceanic climate with mild winters and relatively cool summers. Lots of rain. You've got to specify that kind of stuff. Just knowing the latitude doesn't help. You can't grow the same kind of stuff where he lives that you can grow around Minnesota or North Dakota at the same parallel. Just like I can't grow the Same kind of stuff here in Dallas that somebody in El Paso can grow even though we're both at about the 32 parallel.
philomelodia excellent refinement - climate determines what can be grown. Of course, urban farming can be done anywhere in a controlled environment and that will be very important the future. I wonder if that will be a few years from now or decades. Google Search < urban farming > and Google Search < vertical farming >
Actually, Kelowna is in the Okanagan - almost desert like setting, less than 30cm of rain a year, nothing like the PNW/marine climate. I've lived in both of them and they are very different. Summers are blisteringly hot and dry - cactus can be found in vacant lots and in parks. Winters are plentiful with snow. Very unlike the coast. But you are right - these considerations do matter.
don't know how I got here mate but I'm fascinated. well done
Do sunflower microgreen take 2 days or 2 weeks for harvest?
If you don't mind me asking, what region are you growing your crops and how do you grow in the winter? Can you grow when plants are covered with snow?
micro greens?
So glad I found this channel. Keep up the great work!!
$8 a pound for spinach!!!! price gouging! I could never live in your neighborhood.
Thanks God most stores rely on mass producers
It sounds like a lot but near me (low cost of living), a regular-size box of baby spinach is 5 oz and is about $3 (it's actually a little more than $3). At that rate, that's $0.60 per oz or $9.60 a pound. I think buying a full pound of spinach isn't the norm. A bunch that you buy is usually substantially less than 1 lb.
Just a thought. How or would it work to use a solar hot water heater and plumb it into the beds to keep the ground warm during the cold season?
Very valuable Information
Can you do a video about pest control? Do you introduce Mantis or other insects to curb pests? Any suggestions to keep away from pesticides.
Hi - great presentation on how to build the boxes etc but - it would have been good to see how you filled them? So when you say you used pea gravel; to what level? and then how deep is your compost? That would be great to know. And I guess you lined them? With what? Thanks very much in advance
Love the video man 😊
Gave me so many ideas!!
Would these plants grow well in the South Australian climate?
Our Winter is a dry 0° degrees on a cold day. On a hot day it's 50°.
Our Spring starts in September.
cannabis and hemp are massive nowadays and so eco friendly more farmers should be using it :)
What a great vid! Thanks Curtis.
Are you coming back to kelowna? I live in Abbotsford and would make the drive !
Thanks for sharing!
Well you solved a mystery--first year growing hakurei turnips, didn't cover the bed, and have already found tiny white worms...ugh. Anyone looking for an interesting niche crop my suggestions, ground cherries which are related to the tomatillo but are sweet, these are huge plants with big yields and the fruit is edible fresh or can be used in pies, jams, etc. next, the seed pods of radishes are spicy and delicious and can be served with cocktails like peanuts--a great way to market a crop that might otherwise be considered no longer useable.
