The way he does the tour feels just like one of his lectures - he walks from tree to tree so naturally
I've never met him, but have been watching his videos for years.
Was a crazy exciting moment when I watched another of his home tours only to realize that I not only live in the same town, but that I've been admiring his yard for years😂
I have been trying to advocate for something like that. When I was living in Prague, CZ in the '70s, I noted that even city parks were filled with fruit trees.
Totally inspired. Life would definitely feel more abundant and full of blessings if we could see free food available where ever we walked. A great energy source and it would encourage people to walk their neighborhoods more.
In my country we used to plant fruit trees along the country roads long ago so if someone was travelling, they had something to eat.
Thank you, you are a big inspiration for many of us. Not just in the realm of permaculture but also of ethics and of being a good person. I'd love to be a good neighbour like yourself
I love how you pulled it back to the lesson of utilizing the edge and valuing the marginal, in this case neighbors. pure magic. much better than Willy Wonka. lol. XD
We have a fruiting hedge by complete accident. This is along our property line. It is wild black raspberries. While this is probably fairly common its really cool. We eat them and raspberries are expensive but free there. I have started a grape wall and have planted a few apple trees and some peach. See what happens.
Wow your explanation of fedges as “something we can do to promote world peace” really touched me and brought tears to my eyes! 😍 I definitely want to incorporate this in my own plans
Plum and Walnut are a great pair. Genius squirrels!
Might mitigate any evergreens or apples however... not the biggest deal. Walnuts are great protector trees as well.
I dream of a world where this is the norm. A million times cooler than any lawn. Started Planting my fruiting hedge this year. Thanks for sharing.
Think of what our world would look like today had Anglos adopted indigenous farming & medicinal practices...
Let us [lettuce😏] grow the world we envision😍
Grow on, fellows!
Andrew Millison is confirmed a legend!
What a beautiful idea! ❤
Lol! This video's hilarious: what an epic fedge; explained with so much enthusiasm - it's perfect.
What a great idea! I'd like to incorporate a polycultural "Fedge" along Center Avenue, in front of the UUCS north overflow lot where I hope, eventually, to create a Permaculture orchard. That way, I could make free, delicious food available to our members, visitors, and anyone else passing by. Thanks for the inspiration yet again, Andrew!
Thats an awesome program! The world just got one human lumin brighter
I’m living how many volunteers there are! 😂🤣 and I’m done @the squirrels planted their walnut tree 😂🥰🥰🥰
Thank you so much for sharing this. It is really inspiring.
That is very benevolent. Instead of maintaining an antiquated and unproductive elitist status symbol like the lawn, we should fill our lives with the abundance, security and harmony (with each other and the rest of nature) of aesthetic, productive and ecologically sound spaces with food and medicine available for the community and public. World peace indeed.
Thank you so much for sharing this. This is what I'm trying to do in zone 7 on the east coast, but it can be hard to visualize without having personally experienced a real fedge!! I am just beginning to convert lawn to garden beds. Love the willow arch. I am going to attempt a hardy kiwi trellis or arbor to get that similar level of passerby access to fruit.
Another very informative video. Thank you.
So very cool, I live in suburbia and its what I have to work with. but suburbs are full of edges. very inspiring
The casual wave to the buds
I wish I could rip out all the landscaping and replace it with a food forest. I don't have the budget and I doubt the HOA would be alright with that. Planting several trees and large shrubs together is radical.
Order cuttings, trade plant divisions, grow perennials from seed. Sell some to buy stuff you want. It's what I'm doing for myself.
Can't see the berries! Need some close ups or still images edited in. Great ideas and such good work for the planet. Inspiring and unforgettable.
Would love to see an update on this
This is terrific! I work in a community garden here in San Francisco, and we were gifted with 30 dwarf fruit trees a month ago. I have been mulching them with wood chips, and I have been thinking of things to plant underneath them. I planted about half of them out along the public walkway that connects the street to the school yards, so it's a lot like your situation. What city and zone are you in? I'm in 10b, which is very foggy in the summer. So it's been hard figuring out what to put in there.
Research comfrey. Its not a producing plant, but its very beneficial for the trees. But it can be invasive, so research first. Otherwise, how about strawberries as a ground cover?
@@yLeprechaun I do have some comfrey inside the garden. I could transplant some. It's a public area, and people walk dogs there, so I don't think I'd want to be eating any strawberries! I guess the birds could eat them!
bulb plants, such as daffodils, garlic, tulips, lilies, etc. along the drip line perimeter. They do well, and they hold moisture along the drip line until after they bloom, thus watering the roots as things dry out.
@@VagabondAnne cool! I did put in some daffodils. I can do garlic, too...that's cheap.
@fiestacranberry I am in zone 8b, Corvallis, Oregon. Succulents from very well in the Bay Area. A ground cover of succulents will create a perennial living mulch and also provide beauty and interest.
Wow that's awesome 😎😊
Amazing stuff.......
Wowza! Very cool!
Awesome!
can we get an update video on the sidewalk frutedge?
I would get letters from the city about overhanging branches. All of mine is inside the fenceline
BIODIVERSITY at the UTMOST!!!
What about pests? Doesn't it attract rats? That is a constant battle for me growing edibles in southern Calif.
Very nice. However, this should be prefaced with the climate and any watering/care involved. Not everyone lives in such a great place to grow plants.
This is a wonderful idea, very inspiring! Have you considered putting little signs around to inform the passersby of what type of fruit it is, what it looks like when ripe, and maybe some more information about the plant itself? I think it would be cool if people could know more about the world around them and what things are good to eat and when. So many people, myself included, have lost the ability to even recognize many of the plant species in our natural world and we don't really have anyone around us to show us. I have started teaching myself, and I can thanks to TH-cam and blogs, etc. It seems more of a hobby, but the more I learn, the more I think maybe it should be a necessity.
Omg i LOVE this and i love YOU for doing this 🥰🥰🥰 i feel happy going to bed just knowing there’s a sidewalk like this somewhere in the world 🙏🏽💜🙏🏽😍
There is an additional benefit to planting fruiting trees right beside a road. More CO2 from the vehicles which will increase the both flowers and fruits
😊 I love your thinking. Community integration and food for all.
What a great video. Seriously. Well done. Man, you are passionate and excited about fruit trees!
His training level is off the charts.
Can I be your neighbor?
There should be a English subtitles in an educational video! Please
Just turn on captions
Benevolent soul!
Would be awesome to see a vid when most of the trees have fruits
Love everything about this!
Gotta block out my Karen neighbor, that’s trying to ruin my life
AMAZING! Looks so so good.
I have watched this over and over. Love what you are doing. Do you have your own website
What variety of Opuntia are you growing?
Andrew You are awesome.
Subbed
Great idea.
It would be so much nicer if it was less unsightly.
only thing unsightly is your sharky comment. go away troll.
