    It's amazing what one person alone can accomplish with a clear plan and efficiency. Amazing that in a couple of hours time you've already planted more beds of veg than a family would need to feed themselves for an entire season! But you had to plan for it the end of last year...order the seed, schedule the sequence of events to plant the seeds, raise them and then plant them out. It's a symphony, farming. A beautiful symphony.

    I don't agree with everything you say. I don't need to. It's human nature to have differences. Doesn't mean for a second we wouldn't get along, have a great chat with a cigar and a beer.
    That being said, I truly appreciate how you have chosen (at least from what I've seen in your videos) to raise your son. There are so many feeble, useless teenagers and young adults around now that can't do anything for themselves. Calling roadside assist with a flat tyre, being pasty and unhealthy because PlayStation is a thing. Here's a bucket, go catch some spiders. Now that's a thing.
    I was farm raised like all of my extended family and I see these (even my generation) folk that just pay the money to get things fixed. That is not going to be your boy. Its good to see him enjoying simple things, learning what food really is by the example laid out for him and finishing the day dirty and tired. Real men come from the Earth and go right back there when they're done.

    In my context (ohio,US small farm-ish) I use deciduous mulch in my pathways. For me, though, my pathways are a piece of my on farm compost generation. Each year I shovel out half the walkways (since the chips have broken down) onto my beds and reapply wood chips. My beds also get some of the compost from the chicken yard. It's created some amazing soil on what was a packed dirt tennis court for a couple decades. I'm enjoying seeing you scale down to a homestead level- you have a wonderful train of thought and insight that I can always get new ideas from.

    Richard just want to say thank you. Thank you for the time and thank you for the willingness to spread this message to the world. I have been on a 5 year journey spending tens of thousands of hours researching the significance behind the why and the how in a small scale market garden approach farming. Your efforts will continue to be fruitful through individuals worldwide who will also continue to spread this knowledge of regenerative practices such as myself and the countless others you have helped in deeply understanding our connection and dependency on these mutualistic symbiotic systems that we are all inherently dependent on.

    Hi Richard, Xavier Rudd was a nice surprise, especially as the album, 'food in the belly' is one of the most appropriate, not only because of the topic of growing food, but also some of the environmental challenges facing us, nice one! Every time I watch one of your videos, my heart aches for wanting to engage on a similar adventure, and I am putting time into developing my business plan, hopefully finding funders the coming year. Would you be able to share how the changes in grain prices affect your bird enterprises, do you need to raise your prises a lot too? Thanks! Edit: I had missed you'll not have many chickens this year. With bird flu and feed prices what they are, maybe not a bad idea. Still I am curious to hear your thoughts on how to navigate the current interesting times if you had the normal setup :-)

    This system is very important in not just reinventing our carbon footprint but also water management. Think about how resilient this system is over traditional tillage farming. Drought might effect monoculture farming but this system takes in and stores more water. The second benefit to note is that this system builds soil. You can literally turn deserts into fruitful fields. It’s the answer to countering desertification. And increasing the food supply with less land needed. The harvest also is greater. As the planet population increases we need to focus more and more on these systems. It’s literally the future. The produce is also much more higher in nutrient counts. Which aids our DNA to fix itself against diseases. It’s a win win all around. God Bless everyone in your adventures in following God’s intended nature. We are on a journey to bring back Eden.
