This is an introduction video to myself, Mike Garcia and Everoak Farm in Orlando, FL. Follow us as we go through our journey of enhancing our agroecological farm.
Mike you are a beacon of light my brother. Keep up the good work!
Nice video. I am doing permaculture down town Orlando. I also have a new channel. Your garden looks beautiful. subscribed.
Awesome! Thank you!
Mana ternaknya bos sdh banyak rumputya siap panen saya orang kampung di Indonesia peternak pemula,mohon saranya
❤❤❤mantap saya ikut ❤❤❤
❤❤❤
Absolutely FANTASTIC! Gorgeous and inspiring... love the seed bomb mix...wish I lived close enough to join your CSA...I'm there in spirit
Thank you so much!! I'm glad to hear that!
I thought that eucalyptus is allelopathic. Is that not true?
Yes, but what I gather is allelopathic if you let it go to seed. Check this video. th-cam.com/video/yaplN5m6Rng/w-d-xo.htmlsi=qPniApBvzaYJfd3z He talks about that towards the end.
looks like summer! lush, green, and full.
You know it!!! Great to see you on here!
@@everoakfarm great to see you on here man. vids are looking 👌🏼 i'm going through them when i can; will be commenting to push your engagement up
the summer up here has produced an abundance of pasture grass for the chickens and sheep; and an abundance of management work on my end. im watching the grass grow and inch a day it seems..
Hey Mike, I’m a long time viewer of agroecology and farming videos on TH-cam, and great job man. Your stuff is really good, high quality, not too long, perfect. I’ve Subscribed and I’ll be coming back.
Thank you so much! Im really glad to hear that, this feedback helps me out a lot!
Great video,so educative,you could feed these grass cuttings to goats/cattles they make great feed.
Thank you! We have feed this grass to our neighbors dairy cow, and they love it!! We're looking to maybe getting goats one day and defiantly looking to feed this to them.
This is amazing Mike... I'm trying to do the whole content creation thing too to help share my learnings. Was trying Instagram, but the short form seems limiting, and more admin heavy - I think TH-cam is the way to go for me too. Everything is looking so lush - really hoping to achieve a similar result with my tree lines - my system is going to be purely experimental for now, no expectations for production.
Thank you so much! Yeah, go for it!
Loving this Mike - everything is booming!
I, thanks four this garden trip, it look's fantastic🦚, what's the name of this covercrop, "Muna"!! that's around the peach trees?
Thank you! The cover crop is Sorghum Sudangrass and the cowpea under the trees are Mavuno Cowpeas.
Mike, I just discovered your channel. I really enjoying your content. I would like more detail on your bed/tree line widths and path widths throughout your system. Also, I would like more detail on plant spacing and strata. Thank you!
Thank you! I'll defiantly put a video together on this. Once I start prepping the the market garden blocks for Autumn planting and do a heavy pruning and reset, Ill go ahead and talk about that. But every contexts is going to be a little different on on you go about planting out your systems. I have 4 different systems that are all design a little different.
Go Mike & Nikki!!! what you are doing is so amazing 💚🔥
Thank you Kelly!!!
Would you be willing to share the spacing that you used for your cabbage, okra, pepper consortium? Your farm is absolutely beautiful. Videos like this are priceless for me. Thank you for sharing your work.
Thank you so much for the kind words and showing interest in our farm. So the spacing and step I used was the following; I use 30inch bed systems. Transplanted Cabbage first at 3 rows 14 inch spacing. Then transplanted 2 rows 14 inch spacing of peppers on the outside rows in between the cabbage. Then direct sow Okra seeds down the center 1 row 14 inch spacing, in between the cabbage, I do recommend transplanting the okra, which is what I plan on doing from here on out. Next season I do have plans on planting a little different. I'll be doing videos in the near future on my planting consortium for the market garden.
@@everoakfarm I really appreciate the response! Thank you so much for the information! I’m looking forward to seeing your future consortiums!
Awesome man. Excited to be in the learning process with you.
What's your survival rate when you propagate that way?
@@Norbingel I would say 90%
@@everoakfarm oh nice. I guess with the rainy season where we are it's time to start propagating ours. I'd been nervous about risking the ones we have just in case they have low survival.
Amazing video Mike. Thanks for sharing. Inspiring to see this being done in Central Florida (I’m located in Lutz, FL). You mentioned that you are growing guavas; what are your favorite varieties for Central Florida?
Thank you! Thats awesome to hear! So I'm growing Barbie Pink Guava. Are you growing any guavas?
I haven’t gotten into the guava game yet. The Barbie Pink seems like a good variety from what I am reading. I live close to Pete Kanaris at GreenDreams and it looks like he’s also got Cattley’s, Pineapple, Ruby Supreme, Tikal and a few others. I’ll let you know what he recommends next time I stop by
Looks great
An excellent example of combining, syntropics, chickens, woodchip mulch (back to Even style) bio mass rows (Napier grass), and cover crops. You've worked with all the pieces of the jigsaw puzzle very well. You also double planting species in the vegrows In effect getting two bangs for your buck. One bed prep for two or three crops is supreme efficiency and adds to root diversity to soil. Confuses bugs too. I've played with triple planting by basing it on successional harvesting. Asian greens or radish (6-8weeks),followed by caps or beans, (10-12 weeks) followed by eggplant or corn (14 weeks). Use a six point server for radish or Asian, then run your Jang or Earthway seeder over the top for the later stuff. It gets busy but keeps you harvesting for months. Top garden mate, one of the best I've found on the internet. You might want to consider running courses as additional income.
Thank you so much for the feedback and for all the insight! Yeah, I really love playing with the successional planting and harvesting. This upcoming annual veggie seasons I'll be playing and pushing it pretty hard. Really looking forward it. As of right now I don't have much time running a course. Im just wanting to share my thoughts and experiences on here (TH-cam). I really like the idea to be somewhat open source. I would love to see more people getting into this practice of agriculture. Especially the integrations of market gardening and SAF.
What we do is run a morning course and have the students plant the trees out. They love it. Gets the kids involved. I don't charge a fee but am thankful for the free labour. They're very enthusiastic so I get a a lot planted.
I'm so glad you found Mike - syntropy in action.
Hey Mike! I just found you yesterday, I live right down the road in Baldwin Park and I was stoked to see your farm is so close. I would be super interested in a syntropic forestry course if you ever had time! I would love to trade some free labor for some of your knowledge !
Beautiful, have you thought of asparagus as low/medium strata?
I have not, but that sounds like a great idea! That’s something I wouldn’t mind trying out.
😊😊
Hey Mike great idea can't wait to see it.
Thank you!
mate i love your farm setup, you have mature structure and a clear end game incorporating all the elements I've been thinking on for a while now. My rows are mature and have been planning chicken tractors into the alleys. Just a tip on the peach orchard (I also grow these low chill varieties, go ahead and install bananas in between each tree spacing and use stems / leaves to feed to peaches. Also I have eucalypts at meter spacings between my bananas and grow dragon fruit on these permanent living poles. This summer also plan to install passionfruit's on the other side of the Eucalypts trunks and wind them up the trunk. Wild passion fruits love climbing up into the high eucalypts. Money just drops out of the branches when they're ripe. Absolutely love your set up. Check out my own you tube channel ''Syntropic Agroforestry in Australia''. Thanks for helping me see some clear pathways forward. Cheers. Adam (Farmer Jones)
Thank you so much! Also thank you so much for the insight on your farm, I'm definitely going to check out your channel. Im getting ready to upload a walk trough video of my plan on taking on the peach orchard here to, defiantly going to be planting bananas in between.
No worries. I think out of all the thousands of syntropic videos I've seen your place has struck the perfect balance of all elements and has proven you can make a living on small acreage. That tricky combination of Syntropics, traditional market gardening and animals. You've nailed it! Keep up the good work!
@@farmerjones2766 Thank you again! It means a lot hearing that from you. I’m hoping to see more market gardens incorporating SAF into there operation.
Nice to see you on YT Mike! Love seeing what you got going on. Hope to visit sometime soon :)
Thanks!! I would love to meet up one day soon. I also want to make it down to you and visit one day.
Muito bom ! Parabéns pelo belo trabalho.
Thank you! 🙏🏻
Just googled your area and I noticed there's a plenty of vacant lots (just looking for an acre) , how do you get your water supply and do you have drought on summer months?,
I have 2 shallow well, so I do irrigate when need, but mostly in the winter/spring months, which is our dry season. The summer is our wet season and we barely ever deal with drought in my area.
@@everoakfarm Thank you.
Just subscribed, any suggestion where to buy a farm land ( small not comercial) around or outside Orlando? jThank you.
Nope, Im always looking as well. Things are getting pretty pricing here.
Thank for sharing ...looking forward to the next video..
Thanks for watching!
Beautiful farm. I like your design strategies. I learned a lot from you. Thanks.
Glad to hear it! Thank you!
Beautiful place. You’re doing great work
Thank you! 🙏🏻
