Restoring Fertility in the Klein Karoo | Permaculture in the Desert

- Опубліковано 20 тра 2023
- Kathryn Eybers recounts her journey to invite fertility back into their lovely piece of land in the Klein Karoo.
Over the past 18 years, Kathryn and Ross have restored the land from a barren farm to a bountiful food garden teeming with life- all through the practice of permaculture.
Their home and garden is a testament to the deep connection they have fostered with the land, which in turn nourishes and sustains them through the years.
Beautiful! Thank you!
Just discovered your channel. My girlfriend is from Cape Town and we live together in Belgium. We consider moving to SA in the future. This channel is inspiring and provides some fresh air compared to all the negative content you find about SA.
Keep it up!
come stay at Numbi Valley once you have moved here
keep up the great work guys
Great work. Thanks for the inspiration
Kath & Ross have created a heaven on Earth. Kath gives the best yoga classes I have ever had. To stay there is to rejuvenate. Love Numbi Valley ❤
Thank you for your years of encouragement and support Debs
We stayed at Numbi last year & love the special place you both created. The knowledge you shared is priceless & inspirational!
Absolutely stunning!. This is how I see my future also....I just hope I can find land that has even a fraction of the beauty of your valley.
Keep that dream 🐝🐞🐢
I also had the privilege of staying and helping out with Kathryn & Ross at Numbi Valley. It was the single most inspirational of the farms I stayed at during just over 2 years of WWOOF and Workaway experience. Ross’s sculpture skills as much as the incredibly lush fertility they created and the beauty of the relatively untouched landscape. Thanks so much for sharing your story Kathryn & Ross
How much input do they have from unpaid labor (interns) or cheap labor (the population that will work for very low wages).
This is SO inspiring to see…huge congrats👍🏻🌟 Thnx for sharing your story
Thank you Martinet, look forward to seeing what you have done on your place one day
Your inspiring story is filled with wisdom and beauty!Your love and dedication to Mother Earth and all her creatures are manifested in action. This magical video and stunning story should be spread far and wide. Thank you, Kath and Ross, for bringing back the love!!
So much love Anna 🌻🌿🕷🪶
So beautiful 💚💚 thank you for sharing this inspiration with all of us.
How inspiring to see self sufficiently in action. Ross and Cath you inspire us all to live simpler, healthy lives in touch with earth and nature. I love what you are doing and may it spread all throughout South Africa and create a movement of health and self sufficiency!
Thank you Anastasia
You should not forget that they can buy cheap human labor in that part of the world. This kind of agriculture / gardening is labor intense (even if you try to set up permaculture - it might be less work once it is established, but getting there is a lot of effort). One reason many struggle in the developed countries is that they have to do it all by themselves - and at the same time they have relatively high cost of living even if they are living modestly.
Those that get a reputation as teachers have it easier - they too have cheap labor in form of unpaid interns / students.
Thank you for sharing, looks lovely.
Thanks for watching!
New to your channel. You have a beautiful place.
Nice. More vids like this.
Soon ;)
What a beautiful capturing of the remarkable results you have achieved. You continue to inspire me in my food production endeavors. Well done.
We all keep on inspiring and lifting one another towards a healthier abundant planet 🌼🦋🐞🐝
What a beautiful way to share your Numbi Story!
The importance of living a life of fine balance with all
Thank you for sharing your life and this message, Kath & Ross 🌞
Thank you Lydia 😊
I love it! Excellent explanation of the importance of the soil and compost and the approach with the chickens in the movable chicken tractors. A holistic approach based on both science and keen observations on the land. Numbi indeed! Well done Kath and Ross you are creating true successional abundance!
Thank you Nici, appreciate your feedback
Fantastic. The Real Circle of Life
I watched this until the end. Unusual for me if someone is just talking. But your beautiful energy filtered through the screen. No wonder you have created such a beautiful place. Thank you for what you do. Love from australia
Thank YOU Patricia
The planet needs mor people like Kathryn and Ross. Very inspirational.Thank you for sharing
Thanks Greg
Great minidoc 👍A tour of the home itself would have been splendid 👌
Thank you! We Agree, next time we visit we'll do a home tour. Unfortunately with the lens we currently have it's tough to do wide shots in smaller spaces. But we will be expanding as soon as we can.😄
Wow guys! So inspiring! Well done ❤
You guys are such an inspiration for me.. thank you for sharing your knowledge with us....
Thank you Meri
What a story. What you're doing is incredible. We we're there for a permaculture tour and stayed in the original cob house. We learnt so much and had a very peaceful stay. We also bought a wide variety of heirloom seeds from them (still some of the best I've been able to get my hands on). Glad even more people are getting to see this.
Thank you so much Andries, so great to receive this feedback
This is what I want to do when we escape the rat race!! Thanks for showing us how Kath and Ross.
Thanks Nick 😊

As it should be❤
Thank you Jane 🤍
I like the way you called your farm boobies🤣
Far more than that though, good work.
Succinctly put, simple gathering custodians.
❤
Where did you get that chicken coop at 3:47?
We built it from recycled materials
what a beautiful video! my wife and I had the pleasure of staying with Kath and Ross for about 10 days as part of a workaway. It was so incredible. This video took me right back to those days and night. :)
Good times those!
Me too! Wonderful memories
Please can we have an update😢
We would love to do an update on this farm some time in the future :) For now we are exploring other farms. I hope you enjoy our upcoming videos just as much!
You need cows and goats, maybe even pigs. Plants grow better with manure
We use manure from a dairy near us to make compost heaps. And sometimes bring in horse dung from stables in town when we do go in. The chickens are magicians at fertilizing the veggie beds. We find that combination works beautifully
Great story but how do you feel safe in the hell hole that is SA?
when you stand below the great mountains in the vast plains of the karoo, you are in one of the safest and most peaceful places on earth
South Africa is not a hell hole.
@@melvinpako2581 I was born and bred, lived there for 18 years and have been back a few times. its a hellhole (not the countryside)
