Quitting Your Job To Farm on a Quarter Acre In Your Backyard?
Вставка
- Опубліковано 15 тра 2024
- My friend Steven Cornett just quit his job. He quit so he can start his NEW job...farming in San Diego on a quarter acre in his backyard.
His farm is called Nature's Always Right, because he believes that the best way to grow is to study natural systems and emulate them in his urban plot.
In this video we do a DEEP dive into every aspect of his farm as well as where he's at in the journey. I HIGHLY encourage you to go subscribe to his channel for more urban farming goodness!

0:00 to 31:12 Every second worth watching. Thank you for this! It's helping me overcome my fear of jumping into this full time.
That's so awesome to hear!! You can do it, little by little we get better everyday.
Theres a bunch of automatic soldier fly larvae dispensers on youtube that you could use for your chickens, it uses a ramp to for the larvae to fall into a bucket.
Ya the biopod is cool but very expensive. I'm trying to build my own with my own design I came up with so I can show others how to just build one out of wood. I'm gonna crack the code on the BSF this year I can feel it ;)
And what does he earn? The most important part.....
I’m sad that nobody took the time to acknowledge the amazing “chick inn” sign on the coop
Thanks Peyton! My Mom got it for me off of Etsy for Christmas!
@@NaturesAlwaysRight You totally need to get verified!
Eye was Browsing UA-cam and came across this gem.
BRO
LOL!!
What fertilizer is he using on the black caterpillars
oh gosh I was going to say something but ill leave it here
LOLOL
As someone with a lower back injury, this guy's focus on his own health in the work is super nice to see.
My uncle used to get ALL the leaves in the neighborhood! Everyone brought him bags and bags and bags of leaves for his garden. He tilled the leaves and chicken poop from his brother chicken farm into the garden area and planted about 1/8th of an acre of land. He had tomatoes corn yellow squash onions collard greens mustard greens carrots okra green beans eggplant zucchini cucumber. Fig trees plumb trees pecan trees. It was a wonderful garden. 🙂
Thrilling to see young people learning farming and creating new methods. I've been gardening my whole 60 years, still learning and changing my methods. Thanks for sharing.
That is so encouraging to heat, thank you.
That’s nice
No shit, we're apes
@@TheSword2212 LOL
Just added like no 404. Error.
Epic eyebrows lol
The most epic!
I subbed to both of you. Great stuff and keep it up
Thank you!
Super epic haha!
Caterpillars entering his garden are like "Nope, I'm gone. Too much competition".
I can totally appreciate the planning, design and hard work that went into this, what a great use of the space.
Wow his farm was amazing. I watched both episodes just now. And then went to his channel and realized he’s now in Tennessee! My husband and I are also from Southern California and move to Tennessee three years ago. I have my backyard garden going. So now I’m really catching up on what he’s doing and subscribed to his channel. So glad you shared this!
Love this guys passion for farming. He’s also really educated and knows what he’s doing.
Whats up Zack
Love this guy's passion for eyebrows
@ Umiizack, I’m thinking the same, and his results demo that.
I just made an offer on a little quarter acre spot and this has me feeling so energized! I don't plan to do a market garden, just a micro homestead, but this demonstrates to me that I could definitely feed myself and share a lot with others just from my little place. And have a few side hustles probably, too.
Go! Go! Go!!
Any updates on that?
I'd like to hear updates as well! 😁
@@williamlehmaniv7460 Well, the seller accepted my offer, then got all weird, like not wanting to move his belongings out and saying he was going to do a rent to own contract, rather than a land contract, and I was like whoa whoa whoa, buddy, I'm not signing a friggin rental contract on a place I'm going to have to put thousands into before I can even park my camper there, let alone finish building out a tiny house! I think he was trying to get me in a situation that would allow him to profit twice, but I wasn't falling for it. So I tried my best to find a note buyer, just to get him paid off and out of the picture as quickly as possible, but nobody would bite. I didn't know what else to do, but I couldn't get it out of the back of my mind. Now, almost a year later, I've recently found some folks thru mutual friends, without even looking - just fell in my lap - who are starting an agricultural co-op and have the capital to offer the seller all cash! Then I will just make monthly payments to the co-op and it'll be mine, free and clear, AND I'll be part of a network of like minded small scale growers, which has kinda been the dream since the beginning of this homesteading journey. I've been working on building a collection of good "mother plants" to propagate fruit trees, berry bushes and interesting succulents from for a small hobby-scale nursery side-hustle, and have been accumulating some great customers for vegetable plant starts as well. Once I have a little room to spread out, I think I'll be off to a good start. I feel really good about this.
Just had a discussion with the co-op person, and we decided we've crossed the t's and dotted the i's on our side of things and we're ready to approach the seller with an offer. And I did verify with County Land Records that the property has not changed hands since I last spoke with him, so that will likely work in our favor too, given the crazy real estate boom we're currently in, not to mention the inflation. I think this guy will have a hard time turning down cash up front right now.
Fingers crossed! 🤞
@@lisakukla459 Wow. Wish you the best of luck with it.
Its a year later! Did you go?🔥💕🤗
I LOVED this video. This is the first person I've seen REALLY talking about efficiency in gardening and taking a hobby and making it a career in SO LITTLE SPACE. So awesome, so inspiring
I really admire his drive and determination, again proving that it’s not what’s on your head, - but what’s in it. I’m finding this video inspiring, as I’m just beginning our family’s regenerative urban homestead, on a small corner lot, in drought- stricken Central CA, Thank You so much!
well informed man, zero ego. very interesting
Thank you!
Thanks brotha glad you enjoyed!
Big up man! I subbed. Dad and I will be cleaning up our old chicken pen soon, and I'll be taking plenty of pointers from this
thats what i appreciated, no ego, straight up bloke. i cannot watch the bigger backyard producer[s] that have an ego through the roof, really puts me off
I’ve been finding that a lot of the farming you tubers I’ve been finally finding seem really chill and humble
Both of you guys, just amazing. And the willingness to collaborate is inspiring. I LOVE it! Keep it coming!
I found Steven's channel before yours actually. I was looking for a more efficient way to house and feed my chickens and now I've built pretty much his setup, without the soldier fly lemming station. Both of you have helped me immensely in my gardening/farming endeavors.
Amazing how much he's getting done in a small piece of land. Loved this video
Glad to hear that!
That is not small at all especially since its california
Karla, go visit Paul Gauchi in WA
Would be lucky to have a 8,000 sqft lot. 1/4 is huge in most of socal
Man put some of that special fertilizer on his eyebrows, god dang those things are county fair winners!
Those eyebrows don't need fertilizer.
Red shirts' face gives me an uncanny valley vibe.
Lewiss Stevens no
They are for scarying the caterpillars off

Y'all are an inspiration, we are slowly but surely making farming our full time job !
Market farming on such a small plot of land seems really challenging. Hats off to this man! 🍻
Right.
No way he can make an actual living this way. Come on. If 2 people had to survive off of everything he grows on this plot, you would starve.
That's an amazing setup! As great as everything is I think my favorite thing is the worm bin setup with the main container to collect the worm tea/leachate using smaller bins. He's really thinking about long term applications and preserving his own physical health while doing that. Way to go Steven!
Alexander Smithson I agree.
You guys give out such "good people" kind of positive vibes even through the video. Nature bless you 🙏
Doing our part!
Nature bless you? What kinda liberal turdology is that? Only God can give blessings.
@@mightyminifarm - God? What kind of medieval superstition is that? Nature is the only true provider. Has this so called God of yours given you anything thats unnatural?
Zach Huff
Nature actually exists though.
@@mightyminifarm i too used to believe in ancient fairy tales
My two favorite gardening UA-camrs, and I had no idea they made a video together!!! I’m more excited about this than is probably acceptable. 😂❤️
I look at this guys set up and think oh no its so overwhelming! But he may have started a little by little and built up. Passion is a must to be able to maintain the continuity leading up to having the set up, especially if you're always looking out for bargains to do things another way... its a farmers life.❤
Let’s appreciate the fact he’s still hearting comments to this day

I love how intentional you are about space/time utilization and ergonomics. Thanks for the inspiration.
steven you are inspiring so many guy's who are interested in farming. I am really impressed the way you are learning and inspiring others. Hats of to you, keep growing also lets also inspire others to grow. God bless you for all your efforts
Thank so much for this content. After 6 years in an apartment in the city we are moving back to the country on a couple acres. I am ready to garden again. I will definitely check out some of Steven's videos. You two looked like kids in a candy store talking about this stuff. Thanks again. Happy Growing!
I loved every minute of this video, from the salvaging of an old roof for the chicken coop to the design of the farm and Steve's gorgeous eyes didn't hurt the cause at all! Good luck and thanks for sharing!
So glad to hear this! Thank you for sharing :)
Haha aww aren't you sweet. Glad you enjoyed! Thanks so much for supporting :)
Thank you for sharing your story. Very inspiring. Very informative and very helpful for us to build our own backyard farm. With that im inspired to improve my channel to promote bayanihan Filipino culture. Helping our local farming by sharing my knowledge gain from different people. Thank you for inspiring me to do more.
Thank you both so much for I am just beginning my journey! The information has phenomenal and the additional links and resources were great!
wealth of information here. Thanks for introducing me to Natures always right, this is exactly what i have been looking for - as an engineer who grew up in an urban environment and suddenly found myself living in the middle of the woods on a mountaintop in GA. I want to try all of this!
Everything is so well thought through and efficient - he is really maximising on every asset he has - ways to make use of every scrap of household and farming waste - I have about 300 square feet to work with so most of my urban kitchen garden is vertical and container based - but I am taking a lot of ideas from this for better use of my limited resources! (In the Cotswolds in England)
EXACTLY Lizzie. This is what struck me the most about Steven's farm as well. I took a lot of inspiration back to my own garden!
Hi all, I'm in the UK too this is really inspiring thanks Epic & Natures Always Right subscribed to both
I'm am going to be honest. I had my doubts when I first started to watch this video, almost started to laugh, but now the laugh is on me. I never invest more then 10 maybe 15 minutes looking at any You tube videos, but after the first 5 minutes you caught my attention. I finish seeing the whole thing from start to finish, at the end I was humbled. Very impressed with what you did. Congratulations to you and wish you many years of future success.
Thanks, these are the type of comments I love to get!
Wow thanks so much my friend. I'm glad we were able to turn your opinion around and you enjoyed the video :)
Love all your time/money saving/ back saving gardening hacks! Best of luck to you in all that you do!
I clicked in just to quickly check the setup, but it ended up being incredibly interesting.
Love how much thoughts gone behind it to keep it as simple and cheap, but efficient as possible
You should make a harness or platform on 4 wheels so that you can lay belly towards the ground above the plants. That way you wont have to bend over as much.
Very good idea. I don't know why this hasn't been suggested on any of the other videos of this type of production I have watched. Now that you've said it, it seems pretty obvious.
Wow! This is so cool! We are prepping for a 1/4 acre garden right now. I love to see people repurposing things! I do that so much! Your ideas and techniques are amazing! I’ve learned so much from this short video! Thank you so much for sharing!!
God Bless!!

Great stuff, love seeing the ideas come to life, keep going, its the forever way to live..
Organic market foods, cannot get better. I am 67 yrs young and wish I was 28 to get back into it all... been veggie and organic gardener for 50 yrs.. all good, I like the No Dig routine..
keep on... love it... thanks for the reminder that the world will carry on regardless... xxxx
I'm proud of you, for the insight to do this, you probably could have a class teaching other young school age kids, best of luck in everything you do.
He's achieved so much in such a short time, very impressive. I shall be looking at his channel in the next few days t see where he's at now. Loved all the ideas for worms, compost, recycling etc, all great stuff. Thanks for sharing this Eric. And congratulations Natures Always Right for getting from start up to market is such a short time.
THANK YOU SO MUCH FOR ALL YOUR EXPERIENCE !! You’ve given me more to learn from and I’m super excited to start using it in my garden.
I’m in San Diego as well, near Lemon Grove and I have a little less then a quarter acre to grow on, (it’s not for profit, just fir our table! But, maybe some day!) again, thank you for all your guidance!! Here’s to healthy living!! 🍉🍓🫐🥦🥕🥬🥒🌽🧅🧄
What a smart guy and cool little farm! This gets me really stoked on learning more about gardening and what all you can do in a small space!
Many times when Steven had his hat on, he looked like a young Jerry Seinfeld ...at least to me.
...not that there's anything wrong with that...
@@classicrocklover5615 not at all...do you see the resemblance too?
Now I see it! 😂
He looks like the guy from meet the fackers and plays the voice of alex the lion in Madagascar.
living in Wonderland Ben stiller. That guy is a chameleon. He can look like jerry or Tom cruise.
I love farming. I am getting into it now at an old age of 60. I have always loved harvesting (pickin'), and this summer 2018 picked blueberries for a farmer out in Pungo, Va Beach, VA. Love it! Thanks for your show, I am learning. G-d bless!
Love hearing that!
Hey spend your later life doing what you want retirement is super close to!
When u do pick as a living it’s not as fun.
Very inspiring, Steven!!!! Thank you both.
This video is really inspiring for me cause I was thinking to start for quite a long time but lack of confidence.. thanks for sharing your smart, innovative farm. ❤️
This is amazing. I am super lucky to have a large garden during lockdown and your videos are not only saving my sanity but they may be changing my actual life. This stuff is unbelievably inspiring and I really admire the fact you are giving this knowledge that all human beings should know, but for free!!!!
Thanks guy's another brilliant show, I'm a brand new gardener since lockdown, both your channels along with Mark at Self Sufficient me are helping me so much, even though I'm in U.K., very inspiring, I'm hooked on growing your own.
I love this sharing each other, their knowledge... God bless you both guys!!!! Really informative and i am refreshed...❤
Love it. I have been gardening for about 15 years now as a home gardener and I learn something new every time I spend time gardening. I do know microbes in your soil is everything. With out the great Microbes you lose so much. Active microbes should I say. I started my peas off this year with active microbes and sprayed them on with a garden sprayer. It is the best peas I have had in a long time now. I spray new active microbes every 2 weeks. It gives the garden such a boost.
You guys are blessed with a market structure that supports small farm, there are many parts of the world where the market is controlled by middle-men that will mess up small farm operations. Keep up the good work, it will keep us other small farm operators to move forward,... one step at a time
did I just hear you say some dude makes 350 grande a year on an acre and a half ? Yeah yeah, I'll subscribe !
Probably growing some exquisite Californian pot in the backyard.
Acre and a half is huge. Around 1000m2.
@@ryuugureen4969 6078.28 square meters to be exact
I call bullshit.
@@ryuugureen4969 lol, no friend, an acre and a half is basically nothing.
My carrots have come up good and I'm in south zone 8 but the difference is probably the humidity more moisture here but we also deal all the time with fungal issues on a lot of things like grapes aren't so easy here so we grow muscadines a lot more! Love the video Love all the thought put into his space to make it efficient in a small area! Impressed! Love the motto Nature knows best cause that's the Truth!
You guys inspired me to pause the UA-cam video and go out and start building my garden. Thank you so much for your time and effort.
Love this so much!! Thank you both for being such stand out human beings! Advocating natures ultimate power and organic ability to provide and protect us
Hey, I’m a 68 yr old Gardner and I just learned a lot from you. Love you guys!
Thks. Gardening in pots is so nurturing to me. This fall...(Atlanta/ga) I am growing kale, lettuces among other things. Thks for your inspiration! Ahna
Love men that can grow stuff ♥️. Says alot about a person when their plants are happy and healthy. Thank you for sharing.

Jason Herrick - hey are you from Napa?
Loved this, so awesome to see such practical ideas. What a great education on chickens and the chicken coop. Such wisdom. Congratulations on such a great space.
Wow! He's super knowledgeable. You two together are priceless. Thank You 😊
Love all the tips. My little garden will never compete, but mass props! Can’t wait to see the updates sine I’m just now finding these channels!
i know this is an older video, but i wanted to say that these types of videos bring me such inspiration and hope for the amount you can grow in a small space living in the city very creative systems
Loving your garden tours! I watched to the end! I love listening while cleaning/folding laundry!
Awesome system that he has set up there. Thank you for sharing.
The chicken coop design is awesome, I live in Australia the weather is a little different but I am going to try and incorporate some of your ideas. I have an acre block so thank you for your tips so far keep posting. Thank you
I'm so glad I stumbled upon this video. Good luck to all gardeners.
My GOOT-NESS!!!! Great Job Mang! Was cruisin' around YT and came accross this video. Thx for opening another door in my BRAINS.
Steven's basic principle is...work smarter not harder! He is awesome!
Great video! The wife and I are working with about 1/3 acre and are converting as much of it as we can to farming. I love the efficiency. Will definitely be borrowing a few things from the video!
So much appreciation guys 🙏 hi from Australia 🇦🇺
Aussie permsculturalist here, love the protein tray idea for poultry. Totally using that for my quails. Yall also inspired me to use by-product supplemented with native growing grains to produce poultry grain feed, cheers for the inspo
Dude. This is awesome. I've been a pro UA-cam watcher on Curtis-like stuff for years now :), and your set up is pretty dang amazing. I'm jealous, really. I love that you've done things in the most effective and efficient ways -- super smart every step of the process.
Steven's a genius!
Thanks so much man it's a real honor to be mentioned with a person like Curits, he's the man! I've got a long way to go!
Your beating him 100% Curtis is the darkside. Your philosophy is one to watch. I WILL NEVER WATCH OR RECOMMEND HIS CHANNEL. Please DON'T change!!!!
This is amazing! To think that so many Americans (and many other countries) spend so much time trying to get "perfect" lawns, when we could instead grow enough vegetables on a quarter acre to feed several families. I took half my backyard, ripped out that annoying grass, and covered that half with raised beds and automated drip watering systems. I had to keep some lawn for the kids to run around...when they're older, I'll convert the rest, and my plan is to split the new garden area evenly between the kids and let them grow whatever they want. Whatever they decide to study of pick for a career, at least I'll know that I taught them all I know about growing better produce than they'll find in the grocery store, maybe they'll enjoy working the land, and hopefully they'll appreciate how thirty minutes of weeding and harvesting in the garden beats the socks off of mowing/spraying/patching/fertilizing/edging/aerating/watering a non-edible crop such as grass. Interestingly, my mulched garden half of the yard uses only one eighth the water that the lawn half needs (and I'm pretty stingy with the water I give that grass.)
In my opinion, instead of requiring special permits and inspections to have food-growing operations in our backyards, they should require proof that a person/family will actually USE and NEED a backyard full of lawn before they can get a permit to fill that space with grass.
I know, right? The lawn thing has never made sense to me. Well done on the conversion of your lawn. Would love to see a video if you have one...and people are SHOCKED to find out that it also costs less water as well.
Love your permit idea too...we can dream...
PSPSMITH202 funny we have to abide by every regulation...of course,not q bad thing...but most corps hqve broken almost all of them...so what'll it hurt if whqt or hoe we do is not to perfection...I'd say it beats whqt they have because of the fact they're trying to feed wo many even machinery can't keep up ,well the space provided to keep then animals qll in atleast...good job on teaching the kids,qnd remind them to teach their children...q tradition of making sure to reach it to the next...just in case...
Good luck trying to convince my HOA
You are so right... why the fuck even have grass in the backyard anyways, somewhere for the pests to hide! Lol
@@epicgardening lawns are a historical brag left over from royalty in days gone by. A large lawn bragged that the property owners were so rich, they did not NEED to use all their land to grow food. Check out the grounds surrounding castles, etc. Having large open expanses was also a bit of a security issue, since it allowed you to see attacking hordes from a greater distance. Still, that surrounding expanse could have been planted in food and given to the poor of the village, etc. But the rich have never been too concerned of the poor.
Thank you for sharing your experience! I have dreamed of farming and you both inspire me to save and work towards having my own farm. I subscribed to your channels as well as the other two farmers you mentioned. Learned a ton!
Excellent video. Very informative and inspiring. Thank you for your generosity in sharing your channel with people like Stephen to spread the knowledge and passion to us at home. 🥰
Steve, what you are doing is great. I hope you inspire other young people to follow your steps. Thank you for sharing all your knowledge and ideas.
Besides the love of the work, THAT is my #1 goal in doing this. I truly believe small ag can change the world and especially our country. We just need 100,000s of new young farmers and consumers ready to make the shift to eating REAL LOCAL ORGANIC FOOD and boom the old world dies and a new one rises stronger and freer than ever. Cheers!
Thanks for stopping by Mariana!
I hope you continue on doing videos about innovating ways to help the environment.
Designing and experimenting are my favorite things to do. I don't think I will ever stop :)
Inspired young person here 🙋♂️ lol
This is so exciting, inspiring, impressive ,beautiful just, it’s nothing short of admirable. I’m so excited to see what comes from natures always right 😍✨☀️🙏🏻🌿🌱
My man spent all his points into Farming and Eye brows. Awesome content 👍
Love all that you are doing. Thinking about market farming and you have a wonderful plan. Also love the chicken coup. I'm preparing to bud a new one myself at this time and yours is ideal. Thank you very much.
Loved the simplicity of this set up. Very doable.
You can also use the space on your fence
It is always good to learn new stuff. Your place looks absolutely awesome.
0:22, I wanted to give a shoutout to Steven Cornett. This inspired my wife to quit chemotherapy and pursue a massive change in her life. (for the better, as she put it) Anyway, she died of cancer a year or two ago a few months after she saw this video. It's so sad that she never got a chance to fully embrace nature, but she did stop the chemo and started taking natural remedies and using essential oils. I suppose she started it too late, which saddens me greatly. On a better note, I recently contracted HIV on the job when performing CPR on someone. How the heck is that a good thing you ask? It's because I'm going to get an early start on it, unlike my sweet, beautiful, late wife. None of these so called 'needed meds' and all that other nonsense. Just me, some essential oils, and a good book. Thank you Steven, you're my hero.
Very well thought out plan and garden systems. Thanks for inviting us along. Be Blessed...
Thanks for the kidn words!
Thanks my friend.
Thank you so much this is the most informative video I have ever watched in my life I'm about to go living off grid and this is going to help me out so much thank you God bless you I look forward to more of your videos
That was really impressive, thanks both.
Hey , Jacques. I very much enjoy seeing you and Kevin working in your gardens together. Y'all are funny and have great camaraderie. Your gardens are looking great. Keep up the good work.
That dude be growing his eyebrows as good as his gardens. Dammit man!
I would work for free on a farm like this just so I can learn and do it myself.
I think internships and apprenticeships are the future. Why go into 60k in debt at college and develop 0 skills, when you can get a real education for free :)
Alot of farmers will offer internships. At least here in the midwest.
@keepinitsk8a look into WWOOFing
That is what I did. Went to a farm close to me after highschool and asked if they would house me and feed me for work. After two years of that I went on to many different trades, but on that farm I learned so much and developed so many skills. I now not only run my own ranch, but have a great carpentry business where I make custom furniture or wood work for anyone that needs it. I make enough from carpentry to fund the necessary aspects of the ranch and produce all that I eat or about 80% of the products I need from my ranch.
You can learn and get paid at the same time. Lol
You are one smart young man! I have learned so much❤️ just in 33 minutes!

If its facing up your winning the game.
Living the dream. Amazing farm.
I’m in Oakland and just got a small home w front yard! I am not good at growing things but I feel inspired! I just need to test the soil! Thx for sharing!
Peace and blessings to both of you
Great vid, great info, really like the neatness along with chicks & crops, good job.
With my dreams, I will never be able to do this. But I enjoyed the video! Gardening is fun and rewarding, and the garden doesn't gripe or stress you out!
What are your dreams?
You think owning a garden always gos good and evreything without trouble? 😂
Kevin Ketchum Unless you must live off the proceeds. Then a crop loss can be stressful.
You could always go with a small home garden
Everything is so organized! looks amazing.
