I like what Curtis has to say, but what people need to remember is you won't make jack if you can't sell the stuff! Thanks Diego and Curtis this is great content.
Indeed he's better at marketing than growing.
❤
Curtis I am a 58 year old Australian retired man. I have Stroke related physical disabilities I was forced into retirement due to a couple of brain bleeds/strokes So with a lot of time on my hands I have found solace in my garden. My wife and I rent from government housing our house is on 1/4 acre. You are an inspiration to me. One question. Like me, do you keep chooks- chickens?
I have been gardening since I became disabled in the Army and have had some success and failures. This video shows so much that I have contemplated actually working for this young man. Your video has me impressed and motivated to push for more production from my small garden, perhaps in a year or so I will produce enough to contemplate selling.
Check out "From Battle Ground to Breaking Ground" Feds will practically give you land to farm.
I know im randomly asking but does someone know a tool to log back into an Instagram account?
I stupidly lost the password. I would appreciate any tips you can offer me
@Kason Hendrix instablaster ;)
@Maverick Pierce Thanks for your reply. I found the site thru google and im in the hacking process atm.
I see it takes quite some time so I will get back to you later when my account password hopefully is recovered.
@Maverick Pierce it did the trick and I finally got access to my account again. I am so happy:D
Thanks so much, you saved my account !
bought the book before I even finished the talk. I guess you could say I'm sold.
I've literally watched every video he has put on youtube, they are invaluable.
awesome!
while I'm rural, good to see innovators hitting the urban scene
This is so damn cool! Great work! The future will need more urban farmers.
This = Freedom
Well his use of plastic for start!
oh...your idealism will keep you from the achievement of anything. You can't see the forest for the trees.
You mean me? I just pointed out for the asking person what I think is not sustainable. I think everybody who can start a market garden should do it!
I apologize then:). I assumed to much! Have a good day.
The Lightning American What are they growing? Cannabis.
Huge fan of Curtis! Really proud of him as a fellow Canadian, and excited to implement his advice on my own plot eventually!
Ho man you just give me hope. I must get stated. thank you for your awesome talk.
Dude from the earthships to tree planting,we got a shit load in common.looking into getting my own land and doing the same.great to see somebody's ahead of me and has the similar way of thinking..learn as you go. :)
awesome .learnt alot as a young farmer
Great video thanks Curtis. I have a few acres in S France that we will try to get going, just need a few volunteers...
“Government stuff...” that was awesome.
Food stuff! Thanks for sharing! We just got a free class! 💚🌱💚
I enjoy farming but the challenge we are facing is finances and I know that you can go somewhere with farming this is a recreation we can do in life and enjoy the profits and the time you will be spending in farming especially if you have all the gagets that is needed if I can find someone who can hire me to work as a farmer I will be much happier because I enjoy it and you will get a lot of experience I am appreciating it
God richly bless you in your farming I hope you will enjoying it and get more profit
I watched the video yesterday and got the book from my library today!
Danke Personal, bring so eine gute Show!
What is the title of your book. How can I get my hands on a copy?
I am sure he is right about this
Thanks Bro
Wish me good luck. The best for you too
Yeah Brother Man! Us Americans aint' a bad lot, are we: Down here, especially in rural and southern areas, the prevailing philosophy is usually, "Hey now pick up that shovel and get to work or get the f*ck out of my way! Yeah, and you'd all be speaking a Soviet- style Russian if it wasn't for the good 'lo USA. In some ways, we've lost touch with our better angels, but I still believe in the inherent goodness of my people. And BTW, I, for one, love and respect Canadians for your hard work, low-key humor, and those funny hats with the flaps! But seriously Curtis, I hope the Urban Farm Movement sticks around long enough to make a difference in everybody's financial and bodily health. Your show is primo, simply one of the best. You're straight ahead, informed, and you share your wealth of knowledge to the rest of us eager for social change. Dig this, the more local, local farmers are, the less money goes outside of the community and all the wonderful things that Wendell Barry speaks of in the Unsettling of America will have a chance to come true.
The only disturbing trend I see is the super-duper love affair some of the bigger Urban Farmers are having with insane high-tech machines; you know, the Frankenstein operations that brag about, "no dirt touches our plants! Only this special glowing red liquid full of micro-macros, macro-micros, and reconstituted fritos!"
You know what I mean?
Keep up the great work!
80k canada = 60k usa
I've been listening. That's $80,000 gross sales. He doesn't say how much it costs to run the operation. How much does he pay himself? What does it work out as an hourly rate of pay?
I doubt it's a good personal income. He's supplementing this with the TH-cam channel, the book, and the courses.
gabriella kadar he gives all the numbers if you can watch the full video...
He also says at the beginning due to tax reasons he's not going to go too far into detail. Basically saying it's probably $80k net on tax paper, and $120k in actuality. Which when you're doing cash on delivery to restraunts and cash at farmers markets, would be easy to cheat your taxes.
Farming is like realestate investing, you're not going to just read a book and jump in and be Robert Kiyosaki in your first year. (Remember it takes 20 years to build an over night success.)
You're probably not going to make $80k your first year farming. You'll struggle your first year, and if you learn fast and properly, you can expect to make 80k your second or third year farming. Putting seeds in the ground and growing them is the easiest part, in my opinion anyway. The hard part is mastering the infrastructure and methods to be as efficient as possible. This along with your first couple years of building your brand and selling are the hardest parts of farming in my opinion.
Honestly such a legend !
Outstanding presentation!
Thanks for being awesome
Curtis, where can we send you a private letter? You concept is great. I live in the Texas Gulf Coast Area, can you address some of the concepts you would use in that area. Blessings, Padre. Ps... I have you great book in paperback.
Thank you so much for this info, really inspirational
Apply this thought process and planning in an commercial aquaponics system and.....WHAM!....you're in the black.
Great video! Thanks!
thanks for the great ideas and advises
OMG, he was in Temecula?!? Why didn't I hear about this and when will he visit again?
nice to be in canada...lots of land and less populated
Does this guy have a book. How do i emulate this guys techniques? THanks!
Yes. We also have 2 seasons worth of podcasts out. Check it out here www.permaculturevoices.com/the-urban-farmer-show/

The next POTUS needs to be a farmer. Farmers for POTUS!
Love this guy. Great & detail infomation. So my question for you is what type of contract did you workout for these plot owners as to terms & agreements? Maybe on you next video you can elaborate some details. Thank you!
Any issue with heavy metals while urban farming? Some crops to avoid?
sundried tomatoes for sale
I have 10 acres in tx. What should I farm?
Not looking for profit just for fun now I that for my own information the way things grow
People can work on half an acre, profit $40k and pay off the mortgage faster with labor of 4 hrs a day.
Where do you buy your Turkey fertilizer? I'm in the USA and can't find it.
Don't worry about that. Just use an organic fertilizer that you can find. There's nothing specific to the turkey fertilizer.
I use very good 5 year old composted Horse manure... unlimited supply for free... lots of mulched leaves and compost from our county. I checked online and nothing... maybe some chicken though.
I raise rabbits solely for their droppings... I steep the poop, and then use the "tea"...bury the rest in a compost pile.
Amazing!
This is a great hope story and he puts out great information. But thats all it is, great information. He has said countless times, IF YOU CAN SELL IT. It's only worth what someone will pay for it. I would love to see his tax return.
Watch videos on TH-cam marketing and Ted talks etc
thats great idea of self employeed..
How do you control runoff from these properties? I don't see any barriers to keep the soil in place?
There is no runoff.
how long did it take to make 80k
Whelp I'm in Temecula... so...I'd be competing with this guy. Is there enough demand for more than one operation in the same town?
Stephen b he's in canada
Only speaking there. Works out of Canada
What's the name of your book sir....can anyone answer this....thx.
The Urban Farmer by Curtis Stone
Google is your friend...
38:00 That picture does not depict 2000sq ft.
Sure it does. The yard has 24 planting beds of 25' x 30" each + 10" walkways. So, that roughly comes out to 50' x 40', or ~2000 sq. ft. I hope that helps.
Trade and barter is great, and I like to tell people about it, but if we talk about it too much and love it too much the government will find a way to tax it, even if it's an "even trade".
Bartering is taxable under the IRC
www.irs.gov/taxtopics/tc420
What was the book he was talking about? Was it his or someone else's?
The SPIN Farming book, but his book,. The Urban Farmer is an updated and built on version of SPIN.
how do you set up automatic irrigation at another persons house?
It is hose bibb based, so you just put a timer on the hose bibb.
+permacultureVOICES ahh got ya, thank you for the reply!
how do you keep people from taking the food from the feild
He relies on the fact that most people are honest and respect private property.
Diego Footer you’re the best moderator ever😉
$80,000 : is that gross sales or net income after overhead?
+gabriella kadar Gross. At least 50% profit margin.
Diego Footer be gives all expenses and says 65%
BRUH, Im a musician and I have a garden, and I'm am hoping I will eventually have a farm, Im 12
Fetty d
Yay Fetty!!
You make the change for your generation!!!
Don't forget to teach everyone around you all about it!
Farming jobs are set to increase in demand in the future, in this tough economy. I'm considering a major in botany. Google it, kids. Organic farming isn't what it used to be.
Some of the things this guy talks about could end you in jail if the IRS looked into it. His farming and positive ideas are great but I hope he never gets audited.
Andrew McIntyre he lives in Canada not USA.
yes but many of the people who are watching are in the US and also I' m pretty sure the Canadian govt. would have a problem with some of this stuff also.
I think the same thing. I know he’s in Canada. And I love the passion and motivation.
But could easily be used as a money laundering business 😉
You got to pay tax ! Like Amazon ?
Cool
Where can i get a copy of that book. I have 18 acres available to me and want to explore my options.
theurbanfarmer.co/product/the-urban-farmer-hard-copy/ and a good friend of his, Jean-Martin Fortier www.themarketgardener.com/book/ i want to farm soon, some with this method, some to be free from working from other people. i'd prefer to just farm my own backyard so i'm looking at homes with acreage in foreclosure within the next couple of years. i'm so happy i found out about this dude, he's an inspiration and taught me what i want to do at only age 22. - jacob

80000 a month or year ?
year... you can learn more on the podcast that Curtis and I do, www.permaculturevoices.com/theurbanfarmer
Awesome. And yeah many Canadians think that about us Americans but that's just because they're one-sided media portrays us as such.
stay small! stay small! get too big and Monsanto will buy you out or buy next door and gmo cross pollinate all your hard organic work. gmo succefully makes crops bigger and larger yields and sometimes tastier. organics got a long uphill climb to defeat Monsanto. it's worth the extra cost. eat raw foods non gmo
exactly
Zak Mclaughlin
Not everyone will buy into Monsanto. They are ban in many places people just need to educate themselves & stick to natural organics.
2 cents...... Russia does not allow gmo food/seeds..... why not USA?
Let it snow, are you a Russian troll??
Joy Abia - Good grief, get real, jeeeesh
Did you give back a few bucks for using other people's land since you reaped the profits off someone else's land?
No, that's not part of the lease agreement.
+permacultureVOICES
What's your lease agreement so I can read it, just enquiring?
It is on Curtis's site - theurbanfarmer.co/product/the-urban-farmer-free-extras/
+permacultureVOICES
Awesome thanks for the info, you've got something going that has great potential whether you're buying a few acres or a whole island.
Of course it won't be easy but I never found anything in life that was.
This is absolutely the BEST TH-cam video ever. People in America STILL think the way You do sir about Americans before you came here. Everyone thinks that everyone else is out to get them. Wearing your shirt on your sleeve is ONLY the best combination of words that describes life in every aspect. So, from an outside view looking in, it's a very informative insight that we Americans need. I'm going to get into micro green farming, expect I've been in such depression, HYPER DEPRESSION, for the last 8 r 9 months, I've pretty much Absolutely ruined my credit and am not working. All of that due to not being interested in life in general. But the past few days, from a few different videos I've redeveloped this hope. And I attribute it to mostly JOE ROGAN. Look i'm at the bottom of the bottom. But for some reason he and a select other few people, #2 Steve@ howtohunt.com, and You ,really, (and your only mentioned last because I only found your videos yesterday) have given me answers to questions I didn't even know I was asking, or even NEEDED to ask, lol. But Thank You. You will never know exactly how much you've changed my life...
Anthony Granger This is also Biblical-Being good stewards of our land. Jesus can change your heart and give you a whole new life. Watch ‘The Chosen’ on TH-cam.
They never teach you....
They only set you up to rely on them...so they can use and stay rich...
Schools should teach kids how to build homes and everything to do with them....fix/maintain them
Schools should teach kids how to farm...all natural medicines-what they do and how they are helpful...what foods are good and why...how to grow them...no matter the weather conditions...
Schools should teach kids to fish....not rely on someone else to fish and then someone else to steer the boat...and someone else to build the boat...ect..
fxck yea!
ask any real farmers that isn't selling a book or speaking for an audience if making this kind of profit on even 10 acres is possible and they will say no. Don't jump into this shit without find out the real truth.
Small scale intensive vegetable production is very profitable if you are selling into the right market. If want two farms doing these kinds of numbers that aren't speakers or authors check out Singing Frogs Farm and Neversink Farm.
Do you an income statement or pro forma on those two farms?
Mmmm no no we cannot have this we have to put a stop to it.
Wow. He mentions economics, numbers, and he keeps tab of his stats but was a music grad 😆
It would be nice to see more liberal arts grads contribute to the world rather than all the angry protesting they do 😄
are we supposed to listen to your whole life history, are you you looking for a simpatic woman
he's married with a daughter.
