This is one of the greatest gifts you can give to the world. When I first heard about the fire my heart was broken. But I believe the knowledge you've shared will ripple out and benefit the world at large. I'm so thankful for your life's experiment, and I hope to follow suit.
Im happily on the path from ‘civilisation’ to Gaia. Your wisdom speaks to me, and I’m so happy to have stumbled upon ‘Guardians of the Green’ and your channel. Thank you Joe, for your life’s work and teachings. Blessings to you and your paradise.
Thank You Sir! I'm off to podcast two and ready to learn more! The book should still happen, I'd pay to read it because some day there might not be internet again and You and ALL the authors You have read and mentioned WILL BE LOST TO US!
I'm from the Appalachians in NC. I just learned of you today, and am so drawn to what you do, how you live, and your views which permeate and are similar to those of us who know that we are inextricably interwoven with the Earth, and all things. Blesséd Be, Mr. Joe. Thank you.
it was a video on nettles that got me interested in your channel , then the fire happened, I feared it would be an insurmountable loss , I am delighted you are still kicking on , thank you Sir for the various enlightenments you have gifted me
This is what will save the human race. We have strayed far from our purpose on this planet and are actively destroying life as we know it. Keep up the great work and I hope your life’s experiment can be transformed into a revolution of change.
Great podcast. I agree on pretty much everything except the overpopulation. I truly believe if we change our ways to resemble some of your ideas we are gonna find there's more than enough room and resources for everyone. Hope you are feeling strong and healthy, would love to meet in person one day. Greetings from Chile.
Thank you kindly. Met you many many years past when I was a young woman . Thank you for extending the work via this podcast series. In great admiration, k To refresh, I spoke with you about my experiments with bees to alleviate arthritis/inflammation.
Thank you Joe for sharing your wealth of knowledge for us all to listen to and enjoy your journey on this planet. We thank you from the bottom of our hearts 🙏
I am so enjoying these wise , wise podcasts. Thankyou so much. I am new to your channel, but feel i have landed here at this time for a reason. Blessings
Just found you and your beautiful peice of heaven from the video with Peter Santenllo . Thank you so much Sir! 🧘🏻♀️ we are definitely listening and following your blueprint. Thank you will never be enough.
Strong start to what I hope will become a long and popular podcast. Thanks for the roadmap. I've long enjoyed your informative plant-based videos. Will be exciting to hear more of the behind the scenes how and why - in podcast format. Hope to hear more about your lost library, and any guidance on useful sources of knowledge.
Thank you Joe!! Please keep sharing your way to see the world, I’m sure some will found it inspiring, as myself. We have now a peace of land, and would like to follow your roadmap to some extent. Thank you so much!
Greetings from eastern KY. Love your willingness to pass on the wisdom you have on so many things. Comfirmed my white ramp patch and my woods nettle for me and Im very grateful. Please continue sharing. Best wishes and take care.😊
Joe, Record your life story on a phone (or similar device!) and have someone type it up, edit and print. You are a treasure trove of knowledge and so many people could learn from your experiences.
Please continue doing these. What you spoke about in this video is the exact life I am striving for and any guidance you can give would be greatly appreciated. If you do get around to writing a book, I would absolutely love to read it.
Thank you so much, Joe, for your time, knowledge and for being real. Cannot wait to listen to #2 podcast. I would love to meet you some day. You are so knowledgeable and can not wait to learn more from you in the future. Vickie, from the mountains of Virginia. 💚
a little while back a friend of mine deleted most of their online presence including a youtube channel containing a video that i considered the best thing that's been on this website that i've seen, and while i'm sad it's no longer available to watch, i feel lucky i got to see it. i get that same feeling of "luckiness" i suppose being able to listen to this podcast
Found your TH-cam channel from your interview with Peter Santinello, but had seen you featured before. I admire and aspire to live this way, but can't seem to figure out how to get there from here. Maybe your podcast will help me.
Awesome Joe! deffinitely interested in seeing/hearing more and would love to correspond sometime and share some experiences ive had with some very unique plant medicines namely one known as Iboga which has changed my life and health in ways i cant begin to list lol.
Good plan. Should be easier to explain on the otherside. I've burned at least 2 legs of the tripod trying to get back to life and still have allot of mess in my way. I'm getting to the age of writing my final resume also.
Joe is an inspiration; his vision for Mountain Gardens well offsets 'modern' times. Though this could be unaligned with Joe's vision, I propose a digital extension to Joe's Mountain Gardens vision: a Decentralized Autonomous Organization (DAO). A DAO is a novel, self-governing organization that uses a consensus model that incentivizes 'actions for rewards.' The purpose of the Mountain Gardens DAO is to establish a self-governing network built on collective interests, promote botanical knowledge, tokenize the knowledge, while democratizing the digital information (analogous to a digital herbarium/apothecary/library). In effect, participants become apart of a self-governing network of people (novice-expert) that are all devoted to benefitting earth, humanity and themselves (the metaphorical mycelium in a digital mychorrizal network of botanical information). Information is shared, broken down, and redistributed among peers. The network is flexible, and automated. The DAO is a self-governing, digital representation of Mountain Gardens itself--chore duties are automatically assigned and scheduled, seed orders are queued straight from the website, plant-walk tickets are managed, digital copies of literature are stored and referenced automatically where applicable. Regarding aforementioned action-reward model, the 'action' could be identifying a plant species; building a greenhouse; identifying plant characteristics; sharing medicinal uses of plants; sharing when to plant certain species; sharing when to harvest species; describing preferred plant habitat; general descriptions of the seasons' growth; explaining how to prepare extracts; validating herbal benefits; coordinating logistics; scanning resumes and ranking candidate fitness; debating soil amendments; mapping physical soil characteristics by location; recording testimonies; conducting interviews of western medicine pioneers; digitally mapping plant species around Mountain Gardens; planning future expansion, etc. In some cases, the 'action' is performed by taking a picture, in other cases the 'action' is a response to someone's question. The 'action' could also be a vote, or even a proposal. The 'reward' for any given 'action' could be a unique, "Mountain Gardens Token." Tokens can represent a constellation of 'things' (both good and bad) including but not limited to: time-stamped seeds (harvest information included upon purchase); digital workshop stickers/badges; class certifications; images; proof-of-privilege (e.g., skip chore shift, extra chore shift as punishment); information; experience; milestones (e.g., most weeds removed); awards; certifications; recognition; devotion; lessons-learned (e.g., animation of cause-and-effect); authenticity (e.g., western-medicine badges); scientific results; research publications; tricks-of-the-trade; herbal remedy treatment, compost recipe, models of soil biology, functions for higher yields, chemical equations for tinctures, or money (the same way a concert ticket is worth money to a broad audience). Almost becomes a video game in real life! The DAO democratizes who the healers are, who the builders are, who the researchers are (plus their credentials, data, studies, and accomplishments), who the best cook is, where the ginseng grows best and why, demonstrates sustainable harvesting practices (graphically over time, pictures, animation, text), etc. While tokens are public, they can be formally owned and exchanged among peers--or even viewed on an interactive map! Tokens are the public, face value, while the underlying information is what is really desired/withheld by the MG community. For example, once the western-medicine healing badge token is earned, perhaps with a class certification, the unique token may contain the following: authenticity of ownership, proof-of-knowledge (maybe a mock quiz), pictures, bibliography of medical references, healing evidence, preparation procedures/testimonies, interview recordings, plant database, recipes, rituals, chemical equations, journal, and historical context) could be converted into actual money (someone from a different country could buy it over-the-counter), or it could be worth a myriad of information to those that want to learn more about healing using western medicine in the Mountain Gardens community and shared for free. Two people may have a western-medicine healing badge token with different contents! The tokens create a trustworthy profile for full-timers and WWOOFers to interact and exchange information with between face-to-face interactions--or the token could act as a scaffold for face-to-face interactions. In summary, a DAO will democratize a living, digital, interactive book-of-knowledge for Mountain Gardens, wherein value is held by a unique measure of 'good' not money. Hope you are able to make a full recovery from the library incident. Thank you for all you do. Please reach out to me if you have any questions!
Well that is really something. I'm all in to a herbal mycorrhizal network... Always feel a need to go online and connect with/share on the theme of plant medicine. Very cool.
I just discovered you on Peter Santenello's channel. I wish I had known about you 10-20yrs ago. I believe you can still get that book published w/another's help. I hope I get to meet you some day soon. I'm 56 I know a bit from working 22yrs at a natural grocery store in SF,but it would had takin a life time to learn about everything in that store. I'm getting a late start in being self sufficient/growing veggies & herbs. I suppose itz never too late,you learn until your time is up on this earth. I will be emailing/communicating w/you,checking out your website>I need seeds when I start my garden. I'm on my next important chapter of life,not sure where I'll be. I hope I can live like you & continue w/being an artist w/leather tooling,sewing on my industrial. I got many more hats I wear,too many to list. Learning to grow herbs & making tinctures have been on my to do list for 30yrs. I visited a company that made herbal tinctures in the 90s LA. I believe thatz when the light bulb went off over my head. I wanted to start my lil garden at the beginning of this year but now here I am mid way thru Aug. I really hope I get to meet you in person & see everything you are growing & built.
I have nothing to lose in proper americana...I do have 3 plus years in gardening....If i show up..with carpentry skills..would I be accepted?? Nice bard analogy on JRR Bard vs Smogg
When I was 22 I felt like I sold myself for my paycheck. It was a glamorous high profile professional environment and I eas at the front- just doing good work with admin and people skills, as was taught - but I used to say back then I felt like a prostitute in that I felt fake, I guess, selling my skills for a paycheck. I didn't mean to feel fake, but deep inside I was not on my true path. I was surprised to hear him comment in that direction on this vid.
My belief is we came from a great Creator With many names, from Dust to dust We shall return, but everybody has their own beliefs. I believe the great flood is what took the dinosaurs,,, And only eight people from the Flood survived the human race was saved, That is my belief, God bless.
mother earth is the ,most generous benefactor ...and on the flip side the most ..when stuff goes out of balance..she can be the most vindictive bittch..and for good reason
there's one perspective to look at civilization as a cancer but to me it looks like a superorganism. i'm of the mind that in most contexts the best way to think about and predict the behavior of ants is to interpret the whole colony as a single entity, and i think it's only our egos keeping us from reaching the same conclusions about ourselves. i'm fairly certain i dont like the behavior of this (relatively) new beast rampaging around gaia and i certainly dont want to fuse my body into it
Joe Hollis. I want to come work with you and help you fix the fire damage and prepare for winter if you want. I'll be the best worker you've ever had and I'm honest. Get in touch and we'll coordinate. I don't live too awful far from your neck of the woods.
THE WORLD IS A POORER PLACE WITHOUT YOUR DEAR PRESENTS.WE REALLY MISS YOU
I KNOW YOU ARE NOW IN THE BEAUTIFUL GARDEN IN HEAVEN 💙
Did he pass ?
This is one of the greatest gifts you can give to the world. When I first heard about the fire my heart was broken. But I believe the knowledge you've shared will ripple out and benefit the world at large. I'm so thankful for your life's experiment, and I hope to follow suit.
YESUAH IS THE WAY THE TRUTH THE CREATOR OF ALL
@@ELIZABETHBATTLE-ln8ncCall it watever you want to call it, its life - this planet relies on co-existence, diversity, and natural ecosystems...
You are a gift Joe , love the podcast’s
Im happily on the path from ‘civilisation’ to Gaia. Your wisdom speaks to me, and I’m so happy to have stumbled upon ‘Guardians of the Green’ and your channel. Thank you Joe, for your life’s work and teachings. Blessings to you and your paradise.
Thank You Sir! I'm off to podcast two and ready to learn more! The book should still happen, I'd pay to read it because some day there might not be internet again and You and ALL the authors You have read and mentioned WILL BE LOST TO US!
Equal rights and justice- Peter Tosh. Thank you for the wisdom, we are on the same path my brother!
I'm from the Appalachians in NC. I just learned of you today, and am so drawn to what you do, how you live, and your views which permeate and are similar to those of us who know that we are inextricably interwoven with the Earth, and all things. Blesséd Be, Mr. Joe. Thank you.
it was a video on nettles that got me interested in your channel ,
then the fire happened, I feared it would be an insurmountable loss ,
I am delighted you are still kicking on ,
thank you Sir for the various enlightenments you have gifted me
This is what will save the human race. We have strayed far from our purpose on this planet and are actively destroying life as we know it. Keep up the great work and I hope your life’s experiment can be transformed into a revolution of change.
Be encouraged beautiful soul ✨
Great podcast. I agree on pretty much everything except the overpopulation. I truly believe if we change our ways to resemble some of your ideas we are gonna find there's more than enough room and resources for everyone.
Hope you are feeling strong and healthy, would love to meet in person one day. Greetings from Chile.
Thank you kindly. Met you many many years past when I was a young woman . Thank you for extending the work via this podcast series. In great admiration, k To refresh, I spoke with you about my experiments with bees to alleviate arthritis/inflammation.

I think i would find peace ✌️ working on your land for you❤
I will be commited to the task at hand
I enjoyed the talk
Good plan. Should be easier to explain on the otherside. I've burned at least 2 legs of the tripod trying to get back to life and still have allot of mess in my way. I'm getting to the age of writing my final resume also.
