Becoming Gardener - no dig vegetable garden with a tiny house
Вставка
- Опубліковано 2 жов 2024
- After completing their studies in 2013, Robert Špiler and Tjaša Štruc, decided to build a little house on a forest clearing. In addition they established a food garden and at the age of 22 began to live their simple life, hand in hand with the Mother Nature.
They combine Tjaša’s academic knowledge (MA in Biology and Ecology) and Robert’s practical work in the gardens throughout Slovenia.

I pray that one day I find a partner who has the same passion like me to live with own produce working with nature..
Same thoughts I work in office but I m so close to the nature. This is really good life
likewise...
somi leisan right ???????? 😵 same !
@@yasafrahim3502 same here ..

I left my 18 years of life in London to start foodforest in my parent Backyard in SE asia at age 37. Been 2 stress free years and don't missed the city life at all.
How did it go? :)
Good for U..we are doing the same ..in Thailand..
Good on you💞
Amazing
Dylan Dickson first year was hard but getting better every season now. 👍😊
Any other guys out there in their twenties who love gardening this much? xD
Me too.Im a doctor but gardening has become my favourite hobby and passion for me...
Then you two definitely should meet. :D
does early 30's and being a head chef (in addition to being an avid gardener) count?
Yes
#Farm to table #self sufficient
i am dreaming this kind of life
im an agriculture student here from the Philippines 🌻🌼🌷🌱🌲🌳🌴
Me tooo. I want to live sustainably. And i am from Philippines too!
Vi Baude sustainable yes but not rich unless you do blogging and host paid seminars on organic farming
I watched the whole video with a smile on my face. It's funny how this showed up for me in the UA-cam recommend videos. I'm a civil engineer as well, 26 years old as well and love to do gardening like you do. But, I'm still afraid of let all behind and follow that passion to a life dedicated to gardening, farming and living close to nature. Congratulations and best wishes!
:) The main thing is this: It's easier to change your lifestyle, when you don't have all the f*cking baggage on your shoulder. Mortgage, loans, family expectations, big bills to pay ... Best wishes to you too! :)
Wow, marry me..I love gardening too and will graduate frm my pilot training soon..😜
Come on let's do this! Haha good luck on everything and I hope you can finally do what you want to do in life!
@@leyah18 Tks !
@@daintyflygirl4va that escalated quickly
I am one of those guys who waited 30 years to finally say 'i had enough of being part of the problem'. Robert you have shown great courage to make that decision early in life, and I encourage others not to make the mistake I made and wait, because it will never change no matter how many years go by. Live the life you want now!
Yes
This is very inspiring. I also quit my job & now becoming gardener, I feel more alive and happy.
Amazing! :D
amazing! what do you grow and sell to make money? i want too!
I just quit my studies after 5 years and feel so relieved right now. I was also thinking gardener could be a good job for me. For now I have the opportunity to stay at the job I did beside my studies, and get a higher position even without a finished education! I will just see if this works out. I have my balcony garden as a counterpart and spend a lot of time in int. It just makes me feel so happy and alive. I'll see if there is a future for me at my current workplace, and I am satisfied with the work I will stay there. If not my plan is to start an education to become a gardener
I wish the best for all of you guys but watch out... gardening it's not a secure way out... it feels good and it's relaxing but it's unstable and sesonal work... this amount it's enough for cutting living expenses and share some vegetables with people but out of those 3 months of production (to make things simpler) you should make money to live for an entire year and covering expenses... i will not speak more... i just don't want you guys going bankrupt because of some feeling
@@anofritz some vegetables such as kangkung, spinach, etc. And some fruits such as chili, eggplant, corn, elai, banana etc. Everything that we can grow and people around us would need it.
I'm half a year into working after graduating with my civil engineering degree and this guy speaks to me on several levels.
Dakota Goodwin follow your heart 💚
I have a civil engineering friend who quit his job after a year and went on to a whole other different carreer. I never understood how he could spend 5 years studying the course only to go do something else. Until now, that is.
Someone posted on this comment I placed a year ago and I believe an update is in order. I just want to say that I did follow my heart. I changed careers, bought a house with one acre, recently built a chicken coop, and have planted 10 fruit trees and 12 berry bushes. I have a five-year Homesteading plan that I am now one year into and am on schedule to meet my goal.
@@dakotagoodwin3432 Wow that's awesome. I'm so happy for you. You're an inspiration. I just graduated civil engineering and learning that you chose to do what you really want means a lot to me.
More will be inspired
I like you garden🍒🥕🌶🍄
It's good to see someone like you here, as a 26 year old heading the road in gardening and farming😊.. Hi 5!! I am a Chemical Engineer and also left that industry and took our farm when I was 25.
Civil engineer here, 29 doing the same. Looks like engineering is toxic industry for gardeners :-D
@@hanbanaroda i'm also in engineering major in architecture. i currently thinking to start gardening as a hobby, since my grandparents were also a farmer, i enjoyed the time when they fed me with their home grown corn and sweet potato.
imo, engineering major had the most stressful work field. when all the deadline and pressure to make the structure works or the construction will be safe or sometimes the overtime, etc, is too heavy to bear. a year just went by when a project ends.
I love your story.
I am surgeon living in australia I admired your braveness and courage to quit engineering job and become happy farmers. I wish I had gusts to do when I was younger. My dream is to become farmers like you in small land with positive people . Thank you for sharing your story.
The same here. Regards from Belgian.
Dude is living out the best life. Hope one day I live with my girl in a tiny house alongside a beautiful garden and feel proud to say 'I am gardener' when asked about my profession!
Absolutelyyyy! We gotta live his way of life. Fighting!
I think we should meet 😆
Shouldn't we! Lol!
5 mins is too short for this amazing beauty.
Ps. I want to send you postcards.
Your place, your garden and your story is so beautiful and inspiring. The filming is done so professionally. Thanks for sharing
They're happy, healthy, carefree, and it appears they have everything they need. If that's not success, I don't know what is.
@dasilverwelshman
Exactly! This is the real success in life.
This is the kind of living that I'm going to have one day. First and foremost I need land and believe me I have been looking for one. Wish me luck!
All the best you'll get it
Me too 👍👍
Goodluck
All the best, me too want same think in my future
Me too. Not easy, is it? Where are you looking for land?
Hopefully more and more will be inspired, and Become Gardeners
More will be inspired
I like you garden🍒🥕🌶🍄
I would love to live like this but the financial part of it will be very difficult. Maybe make a video about it and how to overcome the situation
That's it. I have mouths to feed and Bill's to pay. I love love gardening. But my kids need money.
@@greenhousefun3235 Urban farmer Curtis Stone show how to make a living from 1/4 acre market garden.
In many parts of the world there are people subsisting just from homesteading. Unfortunately, in the "free" world you have to sell your life to just have a roof over your head.
small, but quality, this is absolutely my dream.
What??? Graduated civil engineering and you chose to do gardening?? Hats off!
I love gardening too and im not even twenty..
A beautiful couple too!
Just by having English subtitles you got hundreds thousand and more views on UA-cam, hope you keep making english subtitles...very inspiring.
smart man, your doing what you are not what people think you should be.
I had a garden, till the cops took the weeds away.
@Kopie
LOL... They haven`t come for mine yet...
So now you have a weed free garden?
😏😏
so much peace and happiness in this video... 💗💗❤❤❤
Agreed 💚🌿
What a great channel, good to see a young man with a passion for gardening. We definitely need more of you sir. Like you say, if we all grew our own produce then maybe our beautiful planet will last a heck of alot longer. Thanks. Liked shared and Subscribed.
What a wonderful life you have created for yourselves! It is excellent that it only took you one week to see that was not the work for you! Awesome! You are doing what you love so it is a joy instead of drudgery. Bravo!
Thanks! :) Still working hard now, but it's easy to wake up every morning doing a business that we made around our hobby. :)
I love the bravery he showed by leaving a career he trained years for because he didn't like it. If you're not enjoying your life, there's no need to wait decades to muster up the courage to change something.
Hey! I loved this video and wanted to ask if you could make more videos in English because I only speak English, French and German. I think a lot of people could learn from you all around the world if they could understand you. Would be awesome. Keep up the good work! Greetings from Germany.
For this year we will add English subtitles. It's a lot of work already to make content in the Slovenian language. Thanks a lot!!
He is speaking English
@@Becominggardener will watch it!
I love how you say you only speak English, French and German as if that's not enough. I'm embarrassed to be English when so many people in Europe can speak so many different languages! We are very lazy in England. Including myself! You guys amaze me! 😊👍
noddylloyd, if you want to give it a try, check out Deutsche Welle, the course named « Nicos Weg ». Best language course in the world (they made something like a TV series and you just WANT to know what comes next), and totally free! I just learned German with Nico in a little more than a year (but I already speak French, English and Dutch). Try it!
You are very smart young man to know what you wanted to do early on.
I worked all kind of jobs just to support my child and myself. A few I liked, the rest not so much.
You have found joy in the life you've chosen. It means everything. Take care
ive done the same after being a truck driver for years and now being unable to work due to injury. Im now spending my days happy in nature in my garden learning how mother nature looks after herself if given the chance.Its very satisfying and humbling. and free
Interesting this video showed upon my feed. I was just imagining myself has self sufficient farm and I live off-grid. I sweater few hours later this vedio just showed up.may be it is a sign 🥰😱
Just beautiful! Much love and respect from Canada! 🇨🇦
Financially and healthcare-wise this isn’t feasible for a lot of people in the USA sadly. Looking forward to a day when maybe I can do this...
Yes here in the UK too, but even if you just have a windowsill or a balcony you can start a garden it'll just be small scale. I've been growing food in my windowsills.
Start where you are,
Use what you have,
Do what you can.
No-dig gardening is not labour-intensive.
Thank you! When you said, "living in a 17sq foot house, means not living in a 200sq foot house," that was so profound for me. I have been researching earthship homes and living from organic sustainable farming, and you have just sealed the deal for me! Thank you. Heloise - South Africa
Beautiful decisions ..working in field where your heart is..and makes you happy..I also don't like to be employed ..again..I also want gardening ..work with nature..but unfortunately..I have no capital yet..
Your lucky u have a piece of land to start with. Ur really blessed.
When he say when i graduated civil engineering, it feel like wowww.. I m also studying civil engineering student but i want to be gardener
We may definitely pursue gardening and otherwise regret investing so much resources to the what we are currently studying.
Why so many with thumbs down??? Good for this guy living his dream.
God bless you and your family. What a beautiful message you gave us. I love this video.💕💕💕💕
A younger Charles Dowding!
You bet he is!!
Good job. Earth needs people like you to preserve this beautiful nature.
So, this is what happiness looks like! A beautiful and bountiful, lush garden, complimented by by a warm and cozy home. Wow! I like it!
Wonderful to see youngsters having the courage to shun material world and embrace nature. Fantastic and God Bless you for spreading so much real happiness . Wish you all the very best.
I miss the part of the history of how with only working a week as engineer he could afford to buy this plot of land
He probs worked part time after leaving a huge firm
Can have savings.
Parents' land maybe.
Im happy my bf is into gardening! Ang his very supportive in my interest in gardening
so lucky to have partner with same passion
One of the best video I have ever watched in UA-cam. Simple, humble, beautiful, healthy and happy.
I love your garden. It is wonderful that you are able to do what you love and it sustains you
Ahh I just to need to find someone who doesnt mind doing this, I guess :D
Yap me too
I really admire your work and way of living...I'd like it too but I am sick and using wheelchair which I drive with right hand...I grow up tomatoes and herbs in pots,also flowers..that makes me happy and I know what I am eating...like you.
I wonder what is the behind the tiny house when I watched video???Thank you very much for sharing your thoughts and way of living 👍🍀💞🎈🎈🎈 good luck in future 💞😘🙋
This reminds me of the movie, Peter Rabbits. I think we need to learn to be like you ♥️🍎
i'm started little bit of gardenering during this lock down... i m sure one day live like u guys with my partner....
I am Indonesian, iam very happy to see your garden and i also like gardening.. thanks for your video..
Ljudje se sploh ne zavedajo kako dragoceno stvar imamo mi tukaj. Srečno
Jaz včasih rad rečem, da dejmo jamrati in se pritoževati še naprej, da ljudje od zunaj ne bodo uvideli, kako kvalitetno lahko živimo na tem delu sveta. :)
Vrt Obilja se strinjam ... Jambrat kolikor se da :-) tam naj bodo. Srečno
I agree with you..natures are very beautiful..all these are GOD'S creation n we should appreciate with the living natures given..plant our own organic veges n fruits are better..
Such a beautiful place! The tiny house, the garden, everything really
So beautiful,may God bless you lifelong,take care during this pandemic n stay at your wonderful world called garden..love from India..bye
I wanna quit my job and become a pot gardener! Lol
Thanks. What kind of climate do you have there like do you have to prepare for winter?
BEAUTIFUL 💛💕💛

Greetings from Shanghai China. I loved your video and would like to send you best wishes for your business and future happiness. Keep going and good luck!
The video encourages individuals to transform unused gardens into paradises, evokes memories of visiting grandparents, and evokes a heartfelt appreciation for fresh vegetables💕❤
Shame u don’t do all episodes in English well done would love learn from you
We are still more focused on Slovenian gardeners. But the subtitles will be added soon! :)
Then how can we underatand??? Welldone that it is english.. think globally do it locally..
language doesn't matter...it's inspiring
@@tahayasin6234 how about you become more cultured and learn another language
@@SincerelyAliceBlog sure..
The first work that God gave to man was to look and take care of Eden garden.
Howdy from Texas. Great video.
I really love your video and always waiting for another video dude. Im from Indonesia and i also have the same passion on agriculture, trying will do the same thing like you did. Good job

whaaatt you guys make living from 300 m2 garden??? howw??
i am currently working in city and i have planned to move to garden in some countryside for almost 2 years already.
i'm poor so right now i'm saving money for my homestead small farm later
how to make money from 300 m2 ?
amazing!
Now we work full time with webshop for gardening tools (the main income and selling only in Slovenia and Croatia - kupi.obilje.si), lectures, and workshops. Also working with some gardening companies with testing their products, reviewing them ... Hope this helps!
@@Becominggardener Hello..
I need your help.. Need to start. saifmcharo@gmail.com
My sister grows a very large garden and she still buys more food because her garden is not enough.
check out Polyculture gardening, it's a way that u can grow multiple plants in a very small space.
Why don't you save for a plane ticket for Spain? Things are free there! All you have to do is garden and do some work for them? The plane ticket off season is around 800 dollars! Look them up! Don't settle for AMERICA either! Look in East Europe as well!
With people like you we can make the world a better place - love what you’re doing. Thanks 🙏
My dream to be a gardener ... house grow.... but i live in up north Canada... freaking cold hardly plan something super short summer😣😣
man that sucks I hope you will find a way maby constructin a greenhouse will help?
Jana Allgaier i know... that suck, this early Feb was -41 with the wind became -50 .... i dont think anything will survive with this climate ... i'll try with small greenhouse inside my house first
@@aehrakhab thats a good idea 😁I think herbs and salats will grow even inside if they have enough sunlight😊
The editing makes it look so appealing. While it is rewarding....this doesn’t show the frustration, challenge, hard work, and struggles.
The reality of living off the land in harmony with earth is not exactly a party.
Hi Robert.. it is wonderful to see what you are doing with your partner/wife... the people of the world need to go back and live this lifestyle again. . best wishes and thanks for the inspiration man.
Yes we need to get away from this mundane and boring life
Thank you for your information to become a good Gardner and all foods are organic , I am raw vegan and vegan , I try to grow as much veggies in the pot since my garden are so small yet I have coconut tree , mangos trees and a rambutan tree too beside a bit of veggies
God rewards you with those crops for the beautiful life you chose!
I just discovered I have a green thumb and suddenly our backyard is full of chives and tomatoes.. I'm starting to plant other veggies also.. Nature will reward us if take of care it ^^
Wow ! I do like your set up garden ....interesting !
Found this channel by accident & I’m in love 🥰
“To be in a tiny house, it’s not about living on 17 sq meters; it’s about NOT living on 200 or more.” 😉
You guys get it! Gardening in harmony with nature.
Thank you for sharing your knowledge & experience
True happiness means put God in the center of your lives. He created us and nature and without living in that higher awareness our souls will never be satisfied with temporary material lifestyles.
Amen Brother! God bless
It's so nice to see u living ur dream, I really wish I could also gather the same strength to do so... Lots of love to a dreamer
Inspirational my friend. Keep living the dream, spreading the word.
Very inspirational, i love gardening also
wow very nice video!
And looking very nice garden! Iam enjoy your video I like very much!
Thank you? For uploading nice video!
I love this video. It's amazing that people still don't realize that having less is having so much more. Food is regarded as just something to stay alive for so many people. They invest their time and money on new cars and big homes. Once I figured out this was an endless cycle I made all aspects of food my pass time. Growing, preparing, and preserving is all the entertainment you could ever ask for.
We moved into our home 15 years ago along with a quarter of an acre, and I'm doing the best that I can to get it garden ready my gol is to live off the garden as much as possible this is my dream come true, 😀🌼🥀🌷🌹🥰
Very inspirational! It took me 3 minutes and i subscribed. I'm looking forward to future videos! Cheers from Croatia!
trashcan01 Hvala! Snemajo se kratki filmi, bo zanimivo. :)
Hey Buddy, I'm totally agree with you and must say, you are very courageous!!! Be like this all the time to inspire all of us.....
Address please ,will send you a postcard from Kathmandu Nepal 🇳🇵
Did you guys go to film school or something? Holy moly and your garden is quite nice :)
Love how you use your space and are so grateful for what you have. Thanks and God bless. John 3:16
Hi Robert.
I saw ur video. Amazing work have done by u inspire me to go village and do something at my farmland....
Dude i felt the same thing but after 6 months. I was in university 3rd degree...but i m doin a garden like u .(soz for translatiin coz im french & my english is poor)
Phwoar, Robert's causing global warming all by himself, if you catch my drift.
Hi! I'm a fresh graduate having my first job as a hotelier in the Philippines. I just dont feel right when i'm at work , even when im working i always think about gardening because I always have a dream of becoming a gardener having my own organic farm. Having my own produce and to share it with my family. Thank you for your video it really inspires me so much. After this corona virus i will go back to my hometown and start gardening! ❣️
I love the way you live. Simple and healty. Many of us think that fame and money will make us happy. But it's exactly the opposite. Keep up. Subsribed
I dont know why but im so happy. I understand the one week decision of him. He is just right with his feeling
