The Winter Harvest with Eliot Coleman
Вставка
- Опубліковано 25 сер 2024
- This is Eliot Coleman's presentation at the Asheville Mother Earth News Fair in April of 2016. Eliot is a celebrated farming expert encouraging people and communities to choose locally grown organic food. He helped pioneer the movement with his first book "The New Organic Grower" published over 20 years ago. He continues leading the way, expanding the limits of the harvest season deep into and through winter at his world-renowned farm in Harborside, Maine.
His latest book, "The Winter Harvest Handbook" which is featured in this talk, shares his hard-won experience for gardeners and farmers alike. Reap the benefits of his wisdom and grow abundant cold season harvests even through the depths of winter. Grow quality produce in unheated or minimally heated, movable greenhouses by adopting his innovative practices and adapting them to your own climate.
I ordered Eliot Coleman's book - "The Winter Harvest With Eliot Coleman" - yesterday and decided to Google to learn more about his gardening techniques while I wait to receive it. This video was fantastic. Lots of great information and cool to see the progression of "inventions" and techniques.
just got it! can hardly wait to implement
Eliot Coleman and Barbara Damrosch are fantastic human beings, great resource to learn and be inspired from, top notch 100% quality!
Hi Eliot I have two of your book that was of great assistance when I was studying horticulture, so delighted that you still have a lot to teach us, thank you for assisting small farmers.
I remember him saying this almost 40 years ago. Loved him and his message 40 years ago and love it today.
Thank you so very much.! I have moved to northern Oregon and am so very impressed with learning how to manage and farm my 27 acres. All the learning opportunities available from folks like you has been an amazing blessing.
I live in Maine near Elliot Coleman and he has been the inspiration to build a cold greenhouse this past Summer. So good, so far.
What a delight that was to watch & to experience - both Eliot's wisdom & personality, & his presentation so packed with great photos & so much practical information!
Love this video. I bookmark it and once a year watch it to be inspired. It takes lots of imagination and so much can be done. Thank you.
Just great stuff Mr Coleman....More power to you.
Om Ah Houm
That was fun to watch... Finding passion... What pure bliss... Plus a community that supports each other... Instead of this supposed state of suffering...
School children need to be exposed to this video, so educational and it is a subject that touches us all, food. Eliot, what an inspiration you are. . .thanks for moving my ground, Danny.
I agree check out mylittlewormfarm.com
Agreed. It doesn't look like a lot of young people in the crowd, unfortunately.
I learn something new every time I watch this
one of the most eye opening videos I have seen for farming, thank you!
I wish he had a full UA-cam channel. such amazing knowledge and he is very entertaining 🥰

I was searching for ages thinking he surely had one.
I just looooved the backstage rollers!!! Amazing!!!
Great topic and wonderful, interesting speaker! Love this presentation.
very very interesting I have to say the moving green house is very smart. the small tools are pretty cool to am learning. time to look up Johnny's catalog and see this stuff. thank you for sharing
Great Job Eliot!! Really Enjoyed your presentation!
Love the info on the manure heated cold frames! Thank you for the video, I plan to experiment with this!
Wow, such a great topic, holds my interest throughout the entire talk. Thank you.
agreed.
I enjoyed this so much! Tank you from a gardener i cold Sweden!
it was very interesting to listen to this brilliant wise man. thank you.
Fantastic speaker! Talks like these just electrify me! Im bringing in the compost next month. 28 tons, good heavens... The smallest amount they can be bothered to bring... ok. I was going to do the slow route but my soil is just so aweful and depleted, it needs a boost otherwise i'm just wasting money/rent on crops i could have had. I just grow for myself and a friend right now. We are joking around, talking about being pro growers. Just dreamers for now. ;)
All these different tunnel options for winter growing were a real eye opener! Wow, that scisor door, i might be able to still modify my old frames to that. I'm still looking for affordable options as my two 50 euro plastic tunnels are already starting to fold and degrade, but they were fine for exploring what you can do with them as i have no experience with growing under cover. I will be building a more permanent one next. Maybe *we* will. It's difficult to align wishes and preferences as we both value maximum personal freedom, but we're on the same plot. At the end of the day, he sneaks off with my peppers and i eat his cucumbers. It's all ours anyway.
I already showed him what compost will do and he loves my greenhouses. He wants a greenhouse now too but he's not won over by the compost idea. He will have to watch me pull out bigger carrots and grow better peppers for another year i guess and hold back some compost goodness for him. I'm quite competitive in a fun way. It's great to finally have a growing companion. We're loving the gardening life! Pure happyness.
Warm Autumn greetings, from Holland.

Compost is the way to go, with the benefit of building healthier, more nutritious soil, which is more moisture retentive, so saves money & time watering, keeps roots cooler - even when the weather turns hot, creates much more extensive root systems which are much less vulnerable to the whims of weather or occasional human negligence, creates a deeper, softer soil which is easier to plant & harvest, as the years pass.
The better the soil, the more worms, microorganisms & micronutrients there are, & there's the almost magical thing of all, of this type of soil & the more robust root systems which helps to beef up the plant's natural defenses to diseases, molds & mildew, from what I've read, & may discourage weeds, & attacks by insects, which may descend upon weak plants before they go for strong, healthy ones - or so I've heard.
You posted the above a year ago, so by now you may be able to tell us how things went, if you're not too busy gloating over your superior crops.
I love your videoes Eliot. I love your way of thinking. I love your mobile greenhouses. and your clever way of earning money the easiest way. fx use free air to kompost the roots (-; ect. I love your simpel and clever gardening tools. your such an inspiration.
Love from Mette (-;
Very useful. Thank you for sharing Mr Coleman
The facts about Winter growing in the old days was mind blowing. Thanks for a great video!! 🙌

Great sense of humor!
Just amazing!
In my urban garden, my qualiies would help further the relationship development with local merchants in the food industry including chef's within the local restaurants. My compact quality garden in my mind..
really helpful. thank you!
very informative, great lecture
If Alien's were to contact earth, this video would be one of the most important artifacts they could find.
Excellent presentation!
Very intriging! Thank you for sharing!On minute 13:31 it looks more like "wild arugula" (Diplotacis tenuifolis), rather than Buck's-Horn Plantain (Plantago coronopus). It's a kind of Mustard. Much Love :::)
WOW! Thank you!
thank you ,very nice with lot of information, god bless you .
Just Found You as Patrick Humphrey sent me! Indirectly x
What a legend.
To reduce the cost of heating in a greenhouse during winter time. I had the idea that one could use an evaporator cooling device but with Warm Water. Like a big arctic air but with warm water.
Wow talk about inspiring on a-40 winter night
Excellent
Soy ARGENTINA estoy viendo un informe en televisión sobre agricultura ecológica y este señor es el eje del informe si vida sus técnicas sanitarias su trabajo en totalidad su visión del mundo y vida no hablo inglés me encantaría que subieran subtitulo en castellano mil gracias
Agricultura Sintrópica por Ernst Götsch ...
I'm not going to eat another California bag of lettuce. I love in nova scotia, and just finishing a 2000 Sq ft high house, I'm planting all these come Oct awesome video
How’s it going?
@@moregardening5014 all went as planned, brought in 207 pounds of red potatato today, and about 200 onions, still have spinich growing and lettuce, and peas in green house, just winterized the last of it today, hard work, but the reward is sweet, thanks for asking
@@daleval2182 awesome, I just found this video, but I planted my winter garden a couple of months ago. First time trying it, just one low tunnel, 40 foot row, with spinach, arugula, kale, and Swiss chard.
@@moregardening5014 awesome in the cool weather water less. Use row cover cloth, you can usually get 3 or 4 cuts before they start to get bitter, and less sweet, I wish you many pounds of greens
Can this be done on a much smaller scale.I have a communitygarden at Floyd Bennett Field in Brooklyn,NewYork.I wish I could get dvds of Gardening Naturally.
We here at Toppers aeroponics have finally beet mother nature. It has taken 2 months of computer time to get the answer. But it's here. I just came in from our greenhouse with the the inside temp over 70 f and outside temp 12 to 17 cent here in sunny Spain.
No extra elect, fire or other means to heat inside of greenhouse.
We are contacting Alaska for a area to check and see if our computer program works there as well as Spain and calif.
Will be publishing results in about a month or so . So be one of the first to get on our mailing list for the results of our tests in about a month.
fascinating
Great talk and all but what is that vehicle in the background?
Do you have a "Reciepe Farm Plan" that one could take to Bank? 5 acres/1 acre = min profit- max profit with good work ethic?
I'm wondering if the specs for the last greenhouse with scissor doors are in his book:" Winter Harvest Handbook"?
Coleman sounds like the father from ALF.
Why are you using freyas symbol?
48 large scale "organic" growers disliked this video.
Nice do you grow Weed, will be very nice if you do
Wonderful ideas no doubt but I can't help but cringe when I see the amount of plastic that will end up as waste just to save money !? I think there comes a point where you have to consider more important factors than just limiting that to profitability ... at what TOTAL cost in terms of sustainability and regeneration ? I don't see putting plastic hoops over acres and acres as either sustainable or regenerative. We're not done evolving, let's keep working this from a different angle.
His hoops are metal and are reused. The only plastic is the thin covering.
Competition becomes a hindrance to our communities especially when good performers take a back seat to actors outside of our best interests. I'd love to see Trump's f"ood stam"p program make sense for local agricultural programs, not the canned meat companies.
Why try not killing the voles,and just create a trap they can't get out of.Nature belong everywhere, Just as we take it over. Loved and learned a lot otherwise. Hint; don't show killing animals.I think you guys are smart enough to make something;you never know maybe you could sell your have a heart trap.
