I want to have animals in my farm too (south of italy) but I am worried they won't be safe since I live 20 minutes from the land. Anyone had the same problem?

Awesome work

Hi I am from Bangladesh I love your agri trips

Great video are the pig similar to Devon pigs ? I raised Tamworth & saddle back pigs for years better off with open water troughs.

Hello! The pH scale goes from 0-14 so....yes, you can have very alkaline soils or very acidic soils (and water). However, having the perfect balance between what you want to grow, the perfect soil, and the perfect climate, might not always become ideal. A veces hay que hacer compromisos. We can use various techniques such as organic matter and acidifiers + filters and water treatments + the right plants for the right conditions. It all depends on how much money, acreage and how basic or acid your soils are, and what are your goals and objectives.

what is hanging from there necks?

I enjoy watching your videos a lot yet I wonder why aren’t you vegan? You seem so caring for all the animals. Do you think it is of necessity to have animals helping you to have a thriving permaculture garden/ food forest? Thanks and all the best for you ☀️ 🌱

were you guys able to get the other black cat? or the third kitty?

pig water nipple will not work as it has no pressure - you need a heavy trough and fill by hose or float protected from the pigs

I really enjoyed that. And I can only imagine the soppresata in future.... my mouth waters!

Great video! Which software did you use to draw your property? Thank you:)

cuties. Give them a ball. they like to play

Ring their noses or they will grub up everything, I told take years for the soil to recover .

Csrdbord has a small amount of acrylics. It is not all from wood.

This is the vibe

I love the pigs!

Have you thought of using biochar, or feeding it to the pigs? I’ve heard it can help them gain weight faster and fight parasites

@9:26 Pino's nose is going into overdrive in an effort to understand these bizarre new creatures :) It's a clever idea to use pigs, I wouldn't have expected them to be able to dig into that stony soil but they seem to be finding it easy.

can you give me the info on the pig breeder please ? would like some piggies.

bend your knees when lifting rocks my friend or that little spine will snap at 40

great video! wish them all good health and a long happy life in your food forest :)

To be honest, i was wondering "why pigs and not goats"? So thanks for explaining that and it makes more sense to more now.

Hello there! I just found your channel & subscribed right away. 😊 I also have used rock to terrace some areas on my property that slopes down to the salt marsh. You must address the erosion. You're doing a great job; just do what works for you in your unique landscape. Looking forward to watching your videos. Greetings from Virginia Beach, Virginia, on the east coast of the USA.

That new chicken coop would also make a good shade house. Lucky your old chickens didn't attack your new ones. Years ago when I introduced new chickens they were attacked. From then on I kept them apart for a week. They are lovely chickens. Very satisfying having your own honey.

I'm still planning to ger 1 or 2 hives in the spring of '25. Glad they are already producing honey!

That honey looks delicious :) It's nice to see the veg patch greening up. Hearing the insects (cicadas, I presume) providing a constant backdrop during the daytime reminds me of a recent holiday I spent in Rome, they were prevalent in areas with what I presume are native trees; a tall species that I am unfamiliar with. I found the constant noise irritating in such areas! Do you find the noise annoying, or perhaps one becomes accustomed to it?

Hi, please remember to protect the edge around your new chicken coop. Predators could dig and attack your chickens

I like these experiments to find out what doesn't, and what does work! Nice calm relaxing vids thanks.

✨️Beautiful kitties!✨️ 🙌📿🤎🐾🤎🐾🤎🐾🤎📿🙌

you doing a kind job, and I don't understand how we categorized other animals as harmful for the enviroment when humans are the most dangerous species.

Food is super tasty grilled on carob's wood.

I have built the justin rhodes chickshaw which is essentially a cage on wheels, I let the chickens out within a 50meter electric fence which does keep the chickens in on most days. It's supposedly also keeping predators out but they are mostly active at night and my automated chicken door keeps the chickens safe in the mobile coop. It did cost a bit of money to build but I've been very happy with it. The chickens lay inside the coop, in two old cat litter boxes.

The rocks dont allow for the water to permeate below the soil, it just runs slower across the top. The nutrient leaching still occurs. Ideally a series of small retention dams should be built on the property to hold water for longer and allow it to sink into the ground

Great idea for the volunteer Thursdays. Not too many hours of work for them but very helpful for you. Love Momo and glad the others have accepted her. Your vege garden looks great considering it is on rocky ground. Did you put in a lot of compost and organic material onto the beds? We are also on water tank and it is very annoying when something happens and you lose your water.

One of my chicken houses is called the Ark of the Covenant; because it can be picked up by two persons; it has handles projecting from both ends like a litter used to move an injured person. In your case, two long boards that are removeabe, held by brackets on either side, would allow you to pick it up, move it, remove the boards to access your side door. Much larger diameter wheels could ease the transit over bumpy rocky soil, too.

Amazing your imaginations n efforts are wonderful. You are enlightened with by our creator.keep it up

I admire you in the way you have taken on the hardest land. I thought ours was hard going, but ours is a baby compared to yours. Keep moving forward.👌

Two old bicycle rims , or some other taller rims

Hey Scarlett, maybe just staple some hardware cloth on the bottom of the coop. It won't help with the uneven ground, but it will keep critters out if the ground creates gaps when you set it down.

When I first saw the video title I didn't realise that you had numbered the episodes, I thought you had acquired 39 cats!

Hi, kindly let us know the results. I have land with alkaline soil pH 8.5, what crops do you suggest for it. Thanks

I’m also dealing with rocky soils, swales and berms aren’t easy to install here so I think I will be using similar methods, possibly hugoculture swales.

Uh a fertilized egg shouldnt be possible with only one bird.... Thats Chicken Jesus!

Wieso duesch nid mulche? Usser jetz dwulle bide tomate...

bei Vorwärtsbeugen ist es gesünder in den Knien nachzugeben!

Thank You! The fittings of this watering system are not reliable and in my expierience usually start to leak after a year!

Amazing!

Your vegetable garden looks quite nice! And all the buddies are happy. Well done!

Terrace rice fields in mountainous regions in Southern China or the Philippines are extreme examples that proves your method can be incredibly effective. The purpose is to retain soil, water, and create a relatively flat surface on a mountain slope. I don't know if the species are native to your region but I've seen willow trees used to stabilize river/canal banks in many countries in Asia. When Tetsu NAKAMURA dug canals in Afghanistan, he also planted willow trees along the canal due to their resilience and deep roots.

how fun; they will make excellent bug patrol officers around your garden and fertilize the soil in the process.
