- The search and acquisition of food is the probably the greatest force of motivation for most living creatures. Without food we die, so it only makes sense that we humans would do everything in our power to secure reliable food sources. Such ambitions have undoubtedly led to wars and political unrest in the world.
In this video I prepare an area to plant a “three sisters garden” consisting of corn, beans and squash. The hot dry climate makes irrigation very challenging but I’m hoping that the summer rains will soon begin. This series will be ongoing so be sure to stay tuned for the next video.

Editing: Final Cut Pro X on MacBook Air
Location: Parts Unknown
FAQ (Frequently Asked Questions):
Who films you?
Me. I travel alone, shoot, edit, upload, everything, all alone. On a few occasions I may be accompanied by a friend, but that has been very rare.
Do you stay out there permanently?
No, I usually stay out in a wilderness area for about a week and then hike out and return to a city for editing and uploading. I have family and other obligations to take care of as well.
How many cameras do you use?
Usually I use just one camera. When I have underwater scenes then I also use a GoPro camera. I get different angles by moving the camera around and repeating the action to create a more cinematic viewing experience for the audience.
Where is this place?
In order to protect the integrity of the natural landscape I prefer to be very vague about the locations I use. There are places that I used to visit that were so beautiful and untouched but the consequences of social media brought all kinds of people to visit and sadly some people do not respect nature and have badly damaged these places. Therefore I do not share locations.
Where did you get your sandals?
I first started wearing sandals on outdoor adventures in February 2014. I’m so glad that I did because wearing these Luna Sandals has really helped strengthen my feet. You can see their selection of adventure and running sandals at this link: www.lunasandals.com/?rfsn=102...
(Note: I receive an affiliate commission from any sales derived from clicking on the link above)
Do you workout?
Yes, I workout, but not in a gym. I have some weights that I use and also do a lot of bodyweight exercises. I also run and sometimes swim. I hike frequently to collect wild foods and to shoot these videos so I'm very active all the time.
Are you vegan or vegetarian?
I wish I could maintain my health on a primal diet that does not include animals but unfortunately that did not work well and I ended up with health problems as a result of those attempts. From my studies, observations of nature, and personal experience I have come to believe that the best diet for optimal human health is a primal diet (paleo).
Do you get lonely when you’re alone?
No, I don’t get lonely. I’m actually so busy shooting video, taking photos and doing so many other things like making cordage, cooking, weaving, etc. that I really don’t have time to think about my lonely condition. Sometimes when something profound happens on an adventure I can’t wait to share it with people, but other than that I do not get lonely.
How many languages do you speak?
My first language is English but I also speak fluent Spanish and Portuguese. I also speak very little Russian. I may soon begin learning more languages.
How old are you?
I was born in 1972. At the time of this video I was 49.
Where did you get the music in your videos?
This series is the first one that I am making all the music myself. I recently made a drum and maracas (rumba shaker). I am now using them to create the intro and ending music in my videos, but before in the past I have used royalty free music from several sources including UA-cam. Sometimes I bought the music but usually it was free. - Навчання та стиль

а как же русский перевод? опять мы в стороне?😒
Always worth the wait Mr. Zuber!
just enjoy it Bro, because when you do it, we do it too.
@@andruha341 Абсолютно никому в Латинской Америке до России дела нет 😎
The truest of Chads returns. Thank you for the upload
Thanks for being here.
For the first time I FELT CHILLS OF EXCITATION, when I reminded myself you started with a cheap poor shelter and pants, and now you have a hut and you have starting a small garden.
And I still have the pants! Hahhaa!
Your pottery has greatly improved...
Just in time for the solstice, rad!
You have the right attitude for a successful garden. Keep trying and learning, failures will always happen but they aren't failures if you learnt something from what happened.
That's right, and that's what I expect this year. It will be a learning experience.
Your videos bring a bit of gentleness to a stressful world. Thanks.
This place brings me so much peace and I happy to share some of that peace with you.
For keeping your plants moist & watered while you're gone, have you considered making & burying jars with tiny holes for deliberate water leakage? Small holes down at the base, not very many, but like 2-3 pinholes at most, spaced out a little and facing toward the plants. Bury about 4 of them around the mounds, maybe even a fifth one in the center. Make sure they have lids, fill them full of water, and set a rock on each lid to keep out wild animals. You'll still want to water them when you're there, but the jar trick should provide a good underground water source for the roots to find.
Yep! In fact I was planning to make clay pots specifically for this purpose but I just didn't have the time to make enough. I have one that I made as a test but I need to make more. If I could just magically make happen every idea that I have then this whole scene would look much different.
@@ChadZuberAdventures I am sure I won't be the only one to mention it but you should also consider mulching the surface with juniper bark to reduce evaporation!
@@ChadZuberAdventures Even if you only bury one pot, that'll be far more than the plants have now, so I'd go for it!
actually you can just burry an unfired clay pot with water. no need to make the holes. moister will escape through the clay and plants do alright with that amount. i've done this sometime back in sri lanka during a bad drought.
I used to live in the high southern rocky mountain desert. Alot of what your pulling out the ground makes great foundation blocks. I added fish to my soil to make the dirt grow better food . I hope you have an amazing day
Yeah, I need to catch a lot more fish to add the remains for fertilizer. One of the large rocks I am using as a chair for sitting by the Dakota fire pit. You're right, some of these rocks are shaped nicely for building.
This man is just elite, i love your videos!
Thanks so much Paul
It will be nice to have 3 other people out there to keep you company !! 🤣 Another great video from the master !!!
I enjoy my time alone though. I'm more productive when I'm alone.
The way things are going many of us will be living like this again. Thanks for showing people what's possible.
Maybe a few. It will probably be illegal to live this way in the future.
@@ChadZuberAdventures why would this be illegal lmao. Homelessness isn't illegal either 😂
Я смотрю ваши видео с 17 года, и я всегда был в шоке от ваших навыков, и не перестаю удивляться досехпор...
Когда я посмотрел видео и узнал, что вы знаете ещё и русский сразу загорелся желанием написать комментарий
Удачи во всем!
It must have taken forever to dig that garden plot, that soil looks tough. I have turned a fresh garden plot by hand before and it was hard work, and the soil wasn't nearly that hard. I'm looking forward to seeing the results of this! Also, the new pots look fantastic!
Yeah, I wasn't expecting it to be this difficult to dig. I was going to make the garden bigger but I just didn't have time to do more.
Keep it up!
Thanks for posting Chad, amazing to see you do your thing as always! :D
Thank you so much!
After planting his garden, I think he should get used to eating rabbit, as he is going to feed them:)
@@KevinSmith-os5yz 😅😅😅
So good to see you, Chad! Your garden is excellent news! May it be fruitfull and bless your efforts. You keep on being an inspiration for my own projects. Thank you so much for ALL your hard work.
Thank you for your blessing Suzy!
@@ChadZuberAdventures My pleasure 💝😎
By covering the clay around the plants with a layer of hay or straw, a shadow is created and evaporation is slower !!! Keep up the beautiful work 👍
Good idea.
I didn't know I was so invested in the video that I said a prayer when you watered the first plant.
Such a beautiful video.
Ah, thank you for your prayer. I pray over this land all the time. Especially when I leave for a time.
Вы вернулись! Очень рада! Сад замечательный. Я знаю, как сделать его всегда влажным. Нужно несколько сосудов с водой и ткань длинным лоскутом. Один конец ткани в сосуд с водой, а второй конец вокруг растения. Ткань насыщается водой и медленно идет по длине к растению. Это работает достаточно хорошо на длительное время. Мы делали так, когда уходили в отпуск и закрывали офис на долгое время. Комнатные растения выживали. Если вы планируете приезжать к саду раз в неделю - это поможет. Попробуйте. Спасибо за видео! Желаю успеха.
I was worried, something bad happened, but now I am happy to see a healthy Chad digging in hard soil for some nice garden experience :)
Just digging in the earth as usual.
Oh! This year I also created my own garden - for the first time in my life, without knowledge of gardening.
I`ve planted berries and vegetables - blueberries, lingonberries, wild blackberries, gooseberries, black currants, wild strawberries, mint and quince.
Vegetables - zucchini, pumpkin, rhubarb and seasoning (green onions, parsley and dill).
What is surprising, is that everything has grown, almost everything is blooming and something has already begun to bear fruit. It brings a kind of joy, and it is very hard work!
I hope your garden will also bring you a harvest, and everything will work out for you!
Wow! That's a very ambitions project for a first time garden! Congratulations! May you have an abundant harvest. Send me some please! :-)
I must say, that explanations are LONG awaited. I had watched you since long but while I had many questions and could not receive answers from the videos I had paid MUCH less attention. So, very good that you do it now.
I’m glad you find the text useful. As I learn more I will share more.
@@ChadZuberAdventures The texts teach and share experience. The videos are only for leisure.
Thank you again.
The first garden is ALWAYS trial and error. 👌🤞👍😃
You seem to have experience in gardening.
im so glad to see your uploads man i really do enjoy this channel glad to see your doing good.
I appreciate that
long time no see!!! looking forward to the new content Chad, welcome back
Thank you!
I want to say thank you, everytime you upload a new video I'm so happy.This makes my day much better, its so relaxing to watch your videos ❤️
I'm so happy you enjoy these videos. Blessings to you!
I love how you are getting more artsy with your clay jars
que bueno tenerlo de vuelta
It is impressive that you came this far, without leaving, so yes it is the 0.2% of primitive survival Channels that are the real deal
Awesome video very informative, thank you for sharing 💞
My pleasure!
another advantage of mulching the bottom is it provides a place for oxygen for the roots deeper in the earth and helps retain water instead of letting it drain away which all helps with root development. perhaps next year you could line the bottom with sticks in a sort of hugelkultur hybrid system. especially considering how dense your soil is. also after you harvest this year I would recommend mulching your garden bed very thickly. this will help build structure as well as retain moisture your going to get out of season (fall rain, snow) then when sowing season starts just dig it in the top 6 inches, sow, then reapply a thinner mulch layer. to thick whilst in season can lead to pest problems as well as rot at the base of the stems. of course all this is just suggested based mainly off of observation. although I do have limited experience with dry compact soil in southern New Mexico which is similar to the area your in and a system similar to what I explained worked for me although I did have plenty of access to water from a hose lol.
Thanks for sharing your experience. Yes, after this season I intend to prepare this garden bed much better for the following year. I'm also going to create a compost pile.
Hi, Chad. It’s me, a gardener from a similar arid southwest landscape. You’ve done a very good job prepping soil and getting plants in the ground, so I thought I might share a couple lessons I’ve learned that may help. Amending soil will always work in your advantage, specially adding organic matter (which you’ve already done quite well). Always mulch over the top of the soil with a thick layer of softer detritus (leaves, juniper bark, decomposed wood) and then some heavier matter (sticks and twigs) to keep it from blowing away and to compact it some. Native plants will always be your friend, specially native legumes or plants in the fabacae family since they will fix nitrogen into the soil! Native plants have spent thousands of years adapting to whatever your conditions are, so you will end up doing a lot less work to accommodate them. Finally, just mimic some of the conditions created by real ecosystems (you’ve already done this with the three sisters method), plants working together can do a lot!
So far I think you’ve done amazing and a lot of this you will already know, but I hope maybe it’ll be some help!
Oh, I’ve also planted yucca around some plants to deter pests
Hi Chad, your channel is amazing and you are my top favorite primitive survival, naturalist and outdoor channel ever!
There are a lot of channels doing bushcraft, primitive survival, shelter building, but your channel is the best of all by far, too much interesting content, and I admire and appreciate a lot your work and your creativity on your amazing channel!
Stay safe and be healthy man, God bless you!🌱🌲🌳🌴🌵🌾🌿☘️🍀🍁
Thanks so much, I really appreciate you telling me this. I love practicing these skills and using them in real life. So much more to come.
The gord / water bottle with the tilted top is really cool. It’s kind of ergonomic and how you might prefer to remove the top to get access to the water. Garden looks wonderful. A good days work. :) Here’s to hopes that bugs don’t get to your crops! Always a problem for me when I garden.
So far the bugs aren't too bad. Some leaves have been chewed on but not too much.
@@ChadZuberAdventures I wonder what natives in that area did to fight off bugs.
@@logiconlyzone I really don't know
Good to have you back chad! I was starting to get worried lol. Hope you're enjoying your summer 😁👍
Thank you! Not really enjoying the summer. Out here it's quite hot during the day. I've been working a lot. I hope to be able to relax a little soon.
@@ChadZuberAdventures you deserve it!
Great. Progress. 😀🖖👍
I'm such a big fan of your show 🥰...Wishing you all the best and the success you deserve 👩🌾🤗 Please continue to share your culture with us, loves from france 🇲🇫♥️
Thank you! Will do!
Love to see the progression of quality in your pottery!
I love how good it's turning out.
when it takes a while till we see a video i know it is going to be good
CHAD❤ muita saudade de você. Amo demais seus vídeos. O jardim com um solo cheio de pedras parece a vida da gente.
Será que vai ficar verdinho e com frutos gostosos?
PRIMAL TENDENCIES É SHOW💥 MUitos beijinhos.
Vamos a ver como fique no futuro! Obrigado Leoni! Beijos
@@ChadZuberAdventures você é simpático demais. Pra você ⚘
Like a lot of viewers, I love the stylish pottery you've created! Are there any plans on making a rainwater collecting device such as an above ground cistern? It would take some effort, but it might come in handy for storing garden water.
Yeah, I have a thousand plans. Things progress slowly for this one-man team.
YAY you're back! I thought one of those Pumba lookin piggies got ya! 🙃 jk beautiful garden! Yes nicer then mine. I could FEEL your exhaustion when you washed your face. Love the pot with your trademark MERCH!
I hope those piggies try to get me because I'll be ready for them! It's amazing how wonderful a little water on the face can make you feel out here.
To preserve humidity in the soil longer for your garden when you not there,just make a big tub of clay,fill it with a good mix of compost and water,make it juicy,put plants on it,cover with soil,add a good coat of bark mulch....then above the plants make sort of roof with branches,the idea is to minimize the sun heat,so evaporation slow down on the surrounding area.

This Man is absolutly Okay
Cause mr Zuber is Creating his Own Civilization
You're Awesome Chad *Survival* Zuber
Hey chad I had an idea. You could always tie sticks across the branches of the trees to make little shelves, and to keep rodents from climbing the tree, build a cone of clay around the trunk (like a mushroom cap) so they climb partway but cant access the rest of tree? Like add some clay around it and let it dry then keep adding to the rim (so the whole thing doesnt collapse) and then you'll have a high dry place safe from rodents. Just a thought! 😁
Yeah, something like that should work. So far they have only nibbled on the corn. Putting the plants on top of the bricks seemed to work well too and that's a lot easier as well.
@@ChadZuberAdventures You might consider hanging the pots as well. Specific, made-for-purpouse pots would go a long way in transfering the plants into the garden too. I may be over-engineering this, but having two separate halves of a pot, inserted in another pot might make it easier to take the plants out, while avoiding breaking the pot.
Those new clay vessels you've made were great. Especially that bottle looking one.
I like to make fermented drinks in the bottle one.
Real Warrior you are!!! you are doing an amazing thing!!!
Estava esperando 🤣😍🙏
I missed you man!!! I follow you since Covid and this was the longest gap I think. I hope you’re doing well brother. Stay safe

@@ChadZuberAdventures greetings from Germany brother.
@@Kura2023 Greetings to you brotha!
Amazing video, Chad! 😍
27:46 - "Meow!" 😄
Hahaha
You are so inspirational and brave to take on gardening. It is not easy and not everything will succeed - but at times, something will, better than expected and then the rewards are sweet.
Couple of simple hints from a biologist and a fellow home gardener:
- use fresh and green mulch, such as green leaves and grasses. This will both moisturize and fertilize the ground. Avoin ferns tho, as their leaves will contain chemicals that inhibits other plant’s growth.
- If you, during your travels, come across herbivore animal dung such as deer or rabbit droppings, adding it near, but not at, your plants, will better the soil structure and fertilize.
- Next year, separate the two seedlings grown in one pot and plant them more far apart. As you will see, they will become large plants and they will produce and grow better of not quite so close to member of same species.
- As other people in the comments section have said, when ground is dry and sandy, mulch, mulch, mulch. This will also prevent weeds.
Good luck! ❤️
Thank you for all your tips! I never knew that green mulch would be good.
i find the scenes of your washing yourself with the yucca leaves to be very beautiful. there's this strong sense of gratitude in your manners during those scenes, it really shows how the simple, more humble things can have a much bigger impact on our soul. no wonder you'd rather be in your hut! hahah
that garden is looking great, i'm very happy to see it! squash roots definitely take a lot of space, but usually their yield is as generous as their roots. i really hope the garden yields this year, even if just a little. we'll see how it goes.
really looking forward to your next videos. take as long as you need to make them, there is no rushing quality content. 🙏
It really feels so refreshing to wash the face and hands with just a little water. In this climate water is very appreciated. We will see what happens with the garden. So far so good.
You dug up half the desert looking for a strong clay without a lot of sand and gravel in it, then found the mother lode when planting a garden. We've all had those days. :)
Hahahahah! No kidding!
Genius little garden! The definition of making the most out of the resources you have available. I hope the corn is going to be enough to be pollinated
I will plant more
I’d also suggest make an altar outside to honor the spirits of the land. Also it would show a glimpse into what spiritual practices people had and still do all through history
I was thinking of something like that.
My favourite show - a perfect distraction from the crazy world of today.
Thank you!

Boa tarde chad,amo assistir seu vídeos estou gostando de ver sua plantações. Amo as mensagens bíblicas q vc mostra parabéns Deus te abençoe grandemente bjs
Muito obrigado Cidia! Boa tarde para você. Deus te abençoe muito também.
@@ChadZuberAdventures amém
Thank you for the Vid, I was waiting for it! God bless you ❤️
Love your videos. But it def makes me thankful for saws and shovels. 😀
Saws and shovels are the key to success in life!
Good luck Chad, growing food in such an acrid place cannot be easy!! Lovely to see a video of yours - have missed them and you x
Yeah, I may need a little luck for this to work.
@@ChadZuberAdventures - well you've done all you can as far as fertilising the ground is concerned! Of course, with water being a somewhat scarce commodity in the desert, what you're doing is the best thing, little and often for the plants!
My fella and I have 2 allotments over here in the UK, and when it's a dry period, we soak them once or twice a week. So for you, you'll have to find a happy medium as you need water as well! Your plants looked fine when you were planting them out though hun x
@@stephs7294 Yeah, they got a good start.
YAY! A new video!!!! I'm so excited!
If there is any soft green material, put quite a lot at the bottom of the mix. By doing that, it will compost down while your plants are growing and give a well needed feed when most needed.
Okay, thanks for this tip
I wish you lot’s of luck with your garden and will pray for rain soon!
Looking forward to more adventures!
Thank you!
Nice work! Thank you for sharing!
The garden is such an important step to making a place feel lively and permanent. A huge deal for every primitive civilization in establishing divisions of labor and stability.
Yes. Stability is key.
Ooh, nice fireplace door! Also, wanted to add that I really like how you show the whole plant, a close-up of a distinctive feature, and give both the common and botanical name for these plants that you're using. That's probably a tedious thing to add so many times, but it is deeply appreciated. i don't live in the Southwest, but I'm learning the plants down there, and learning to associate their uses with their appearances. If I ever get stuck in those deserts, I know I'll have a much better chance of finding useful things for survival.
A question: Do you plan on using those spent palo verde pods for composting? By burying some that are dry and some that are still green, mixing them with bits of other plant matter and a good amount of water, then covering that with a layer of soil to help slow evaporation, I'd imagine you could create some pretty good conditions for it. Additionally, perhaps you can scatter them around your plants, along with some roughly woven-in-place matting from juniper bark on top to further encourage moisture retention?
Thanks! It works really well too.
@@ChadZuberAdventures Excellent! And I just got to the part of the video where you said you'd be adding mulch. XD This is the problem with commenting in real time, lol... It looks like a fantastically good fit, tbh. Getting the dimensions just right must've been a chore, since wet adobe is bound to crumble if you took it out. Did you line the opening with bark strips, insert the clay, and leave it to dry in place while you went home for a bit? I've seen you do things that I'd do myself, but I've also seen you do innovative things I hadn't considered. This is a very enjoyable series, thank you.
@@ladyofthemasque No, I just estimated the size of the opening and made a brick with those dimensions. It turned out to be a little too big so I had to grind it down on the sides a little to make it fit.
Wood ash can also be used as a soap. Just throw a cup in with a few gallons of water and works decent
I know, but it's not as good as yucca.
Another very beautiful video, thanks for this wonderful time.
Now you have rocks to make a border around the garden!
Hahhaha, exactly right! You'll see it in future videos.
I was hoping to see you again, Chad! Glad to see your work around!
Thanks!
100% invested in this channel, making sure I watch every video and liking everytime
Thank you so much!
Eu adoro a natureza
Hey Chad great to have another wonderful video from you! The garden looks to have a great start but be sure to add LOTS of mulch to the top if you want to have any chance at retaining water in your climate. I'm talking 3 inches or more. Use some of the juniper bark that you seem to use for everthing else.😆
Is there an increased risk of pests if I add that much mulch?
@@ChadZuberAdventures you could use also charcoal (as it acts like a sponge, absorbing water, releasing it slowly and filtering it in the process), with minimal risk of pests. Also, you could use the mulch that you use at 19:53 to mulch the bottom of the garden, but I'd still recommend the boxes to protect the corn and other crops from little visitors until they've grown a bit more.
Hope this helps!
@@AaronC. Thank you!
thank you for these videos!
I’d suggest get some dried agave stalks to make a partial shade for the plants to help reduce dehydration of the soil.
Good idea and I did this after in an upcoming video.
I had to rewind around 12:20 cuz ur transition made me go "WOAH". It was awesome and super physically appealing. You do such good work with everything. It truly is impressive doing everything on ur own. 👏
I love transitions and this place offers the opportunity for a lot of beautiful transitions.
Thanks for not putting in dramatic music and also thanks for not speaking too much (not that I don't like your voice) but it adds to the pure survival craft.
Nice episode, can't wait for more. ✌️
I’m glad you like this style

Saudações do Brasil 🇧🇷🇧🇷🇧🇷
Muito obrigado! Um abraço.
For our garden in my backyard we had to buy a steel mesh and staple it to wooden beams to keep the chipmunks out. They were very cute but our tomatos were cuter
Yeah, I understand that challenge from years ago when I used to grow a garden. For me it was squirrels, rabbits and raccoons that would eat everything just as it was becoming ripe.
Now the place looks awesome. And enjoy your adventure..
It's going to get a lot better real soon.
Cool it's a beautiful plant 👍👍
To retain moisture, you need more mulch, at least 10-15 centimeters. For mulching, not only dry, but also fresh grass or leaves of shrubs and trees will fit. Even pea skins.
To reduce water waste, you should try to do root watering.
Okay, I didn’t know that. Thanks for the tips.
5:30 one thing: there were some techniques used by ancient south-americans to naturally water the soil, such as burying a "olla" full of water (a clay pot very wide at the bottom, with a narrow entrance and a impermeable cap to avoid the liquid evaporation from which entrance) and letting it naturally water the soil as it get's dry. It's a way to water the crops right at the roots, avoiding the liquid evaporation at the surface.
Anyway, good video!
Yes, I’m actually making some ollas for this purpose.
Nice video cool I am going to try it
Hello Chad! A few weeks ago I binge watched this series abd a snaller one, it was great to spend my evenings watching your content abd now thete is a new video, thanks for this evening!
Awesome! I'm so happy you are enjoying this series.
Hi Chad, I love your channel, you are truly an inspiration for how you are living the primitive lifestyle hands-on. I have a suggestion that could help to improve your soil, though it will take time. Instead of discarding the green Palo Verde pods, dig them into small holes in the edges of your garden where the plants haven’t spread to yet. The pods will decompose over the year and improve the soil structure and fertility - basically in-ground compost. The decomposed plant parts will also help to retain moisture within the soil. I do this in my non-primitive garden at home and it works great.
Yeah that’s a good idea. I saved a lot of dry pods too bury in the soil.
Hi, I recommend from Iran. As it was seen, the challenge is to keep the plants moist while growing. My suggestion is very strong, which was also common in ancient Iran. To keep the plant moist, you need to prepare pottery that is deep. The roots of the plant should be long and the pottery should not be cooked so that water can pass through it in the form of moisture. You will plant these pottery in the place, you will fill them with water and there is no need for irrigation. Be
That is a great idea! Thank you for sharing!

Привет!)
1. Когда ты перемешал мульчу, ты убрал барьер, и вода не будет задерживаться.
2. Удобрение от мульчи получится только через 1-2 года.
3. Чтобы легко извлекать растения из горшков, нужно предварительно их хорошо полить. Это так же важное условие при посадке, потому что помещаешь в грунт уже с влагой (больше шансов, что растение вырастит).
Удачи!))
Thank you
Awesome video! I must say, I’ve been having Chad withdrawals. Breaking the pots must give you a good idea of their strength. I’ll do some rain dancing for you.
Keep dancing!!
Hi Chad, one thing I miss is starring into your fire, it is so cosy. If you lived in the primitive period, I'm sure you would have invented the clay wheel, maybe you should. Make a cart. I love this channel.
It's hot now and I haven't wanted to burn a fire very much. The clay wheel is no good because it will break too easy. A stone or wooden wheel is more practical.
Olá tenha um dia feliz e produtivo com muita saúde.
Obrigada por postar novos videos❤😊👏👏👏estava com saudadess...
