Garnering more than 15 million views on his blog, and teaching thousands globally through his live training at the farm and online, Richard continues to inspire farmers all over the globe with his pragmatic no-nonsense approach to profitable system design.
I think it would be more effective to take current photos from the same locations so that you could flip back and forth between then and now for those who don't have your memories.
I agree. I only 'joined' recently, so could do with a 'potted history' of each strand and its needed areas. But I guess that's to come in Richard's next book idea.
Yes I agree. And come back to aerial photos to understand !
The book would have been great I'm sure of it! Please don't forget it, I'd love to see it in ebook or paper one day!
So sorry about the book. I really hoped you would get enough support. We ordered the book and the ebook. So we hope you will be able to make it as an ebook.
Even if Yohanna is reluctant to be in front of cameras, she obviously brought talent, vision and lots of work to Ridgedale. Someday, maybe in a historical retrospective book or video of the Ridgedale farm story that begins with these great “before” shots, you will also include both your and Yohanna’s early years of gaining knowledge, skills and ideas before meeting each other and then setting up the farm. It seems that you have quite a way of finding tools, machines, raw materials and reusable stuff to make good use of. Is that your own knack for finding stuff, or is it generally true for all farmers in Europe? I like to watch your videos to contrast with what’s going on here in the States. This look at the beginning point is amazing because it’s obvious how much work you were going to undertake. Amazing.
From what I know, Christine, Richard studied agriculture, then worked in a wide range of jobs on farms, before setting up, so he had quite a body of knowledge to start with. The relevant bits of which were condensed into his courses. Of course, Yohanna has done as much and more to make this work also, we agree.
I love to see the progress. You guys work so hard and have accomplished so much in a short time.
Congratulations on all you and your wife and family have achieved in those seven years. Good luck with all your current plans. God bless you all from Northern Ireland.
Congrats Richard. If you manage such goal it's thanks to your lovely wife too. Without her, I'm sure you will never had achieved this great farm. Please involve her more on your video, she deserve it.
Nice sentiment, but as you might well guess, Yohanna doesn’t like to be in videos...
@@regenerativeagriculture 100% agree. Nice family. I will contact you on Email soon for a training course for one of my employee.
That's an amazing transformation for only 7 years.
Before pictures I have just another 6 and a half years to go...
Richard! Respect from mid summer Africa 🇿🇦
It sure is amazing what can be accomplished in only a few years! Richard, I would love to learn more about your day to day life in Sweden. You mention saunas a few times and I know they are good for our health but how often do you actually sit in the sauna? And I would love to see more of how you preserve the veg and meat you raise and then how you like to prepare it in the winter months. This past summer I learned a Swedish recipe for rose hip soup and foraged rose hips around my farm. I would love to learn more similar topics. As a market gardener, winter for me is all about learning and trying new things.
Really inspiring as a Kiwi living in Scotland for 20 years i was over in sweden for 3 weeks helping my friends build a veranda round a old bach no running water had to go out to a well and pump it to fill a bucket swam every day for a wash was so lovely just like back home in New Zealand what you have created is so amazing ,inspirational would love to visit one day thanks Spike
You really do restore my faith in the ability to restore the damage we have done to the world , or should I say, with the correct management we can help nature recover in a very short period. A great look back pre your vision.
Because you are an amazing person with tons of energy and intellect.
Your journey is invaluable and inspiring.
Congrats on all your work and accomplishments. I'm in Vermont, USA so appreciate what you do with even farther north climate. Love old buildings. Quite a bargain and you've developed/modernized things so well! Looking forward to your book.
If you’re a beginning homesteader, don’t forget to get “Before” pictures!!
🤩😍 what a phenomenal achievement!!! Thank you so much for your work, Richard & Johanna. So heart-warming and huuuugely inspirational!!
All the very best,
Greetings from Croatia 💕
so much respect for you brother ...sending your fine work loads love ..been following your work for years and learning loads...my land is finally bought (in PT) ...plan to start 2022
Such incredible accomplishments in 7 years!! Disappointing about the book, I was looking forward to reading and learning from it. At a minimum, I hope you'll consider releasing it as an ebook someday, or perhaps interest in a hard version will grow in the future.
You’ve done a good interviewing others. Maybe a video or more on the step by step work and challenges you had setting up Ridgedale? Thanks and stay well.
Wow!! Simply amazing and gorgeous what it’s become. ❤️♥️❤️♥️👍👍👍👍👍👏👏👏👏👏 very hard work and has paid off with the open mind of what it could be.
Very inspiring
I'm so inspired by this video Richard, having arrived on my (smaller) blank canvas on 24/12/20. Thank you so much for sharing your starting facilities. Your joint achievements since then make me appreciated your knowledge, planning and hard work. 🌠
I be glad to buy the book, if he become available again!
Great pics. Would have been even better if you showed before and after pictures!
I think that book might be great for next year. You just came out with your regenerative agriculture book that I purchased. I’m waiting for your builds book now.
We also just moved into our farm and are looking to build infrastructure so looking forward to the egg mobile and broiler pen designs for our spring building before our market garden is planted. Hurry! 😉
So inspiring to see what a family is able to do in such a short time. Respect for your hard work!! Keep posting your videos, love your ideas and energy!
Beetle and after photos would be great ,
That's such beautiful land!
Some should do a documentary, take all your photos, video over the years.
You could for sure sell that!
You have come a long way Richard. Well done my friend, Well done.
Well done Richard. What a journey. You sure do work hard. We are all so proud of you. You are changing the world , one acre at a time.
It would be great to show a mirror image video. Showing the “before and after “ shots. Or at least now the after shots in sequence.
You are such a blessing in these times.what a transformation
Well, you two sure haven't wasted any time! Some others have commented this would've been even better with more comparisons of the after photos with all the before photos. Would love to see that some time. Thank you for sharing!
Vermont here, found you. Subscribed will be catching up
Amazing
Would have been great to see the before and after side by side. We can’t relate to the spaces then and now since we don’t know your farm.
Amazing transformation.
Very interesting, you've come a long way. This puts all you've done into perspective.
Love your land!
Sorry we lost the pictures??? Love this video!!
Great photo journey. I love it.
Amazing growth, keep up the amazing work!
Wow.... loved that look at the 'beginning'... thanks so much for sharing! Puts a lot of perspective into what's happening today :) (Looking forward to more of the 'how it was' views, etc. :)
I agree do before and after pictures with everything! The changes mean so much. Is there anything you would do different?
Good on ya Richard. Love the trailer!
Such a massive change in a short time. Your system does work exceedingly well.
Great job ,Brother
Well done Yohanna! Behind every successful man is a very hard working innovative woman! Great team! I pray I have an opportunity to work with people like you!
Ps. Can't wait for that "build it book"
I think you should try the book again . but maybe later
I'd be very intrigued, Richard, if you could give a follow-up relating to your experiences on the carnivore diet that you began in 2019. Even just a few words - are you still doing it? Or not? Why/why not?
I know you're a busy man. Thanks for considering.
I have around 50k equity in my house. Would that be enough to do something like this?
Do a search on you tube for people buying farms in Sweden there are a few and they all seem incredibly low priced .
Very Dr: Snuggles looking wagon.
Show the Farm in November and April most Northern farms look bleak then even the good ones!
💙
Can i work there
Where did u get the chickens? What breed is that?
Can anybody tell me what Kickstarter is he referring to? Still quite new here and I can't seem to find anything about it in the description
@@markgarcia5845 thanks! I managed to find it

Hard to watch video with monetizations every 5 minutes.
How strange i watched from start to finish and not one .how does that work ?
