I just wanted to say thank you for making your content free and available to all. I'm starting my second year as just a backyard grower. I'm learning a lot from your videos. Again, thank you.
2 minutes on 24 seems like a fair trade for someone who isn't pushing the "latest thing" as though it's his favorite, but instead providing legit content that's useful to those learning (me). An week of his podcast is time well spent for a startup market grower IMHO. And you could skip forward if you felt the need. I'm a patron because his content is well worth the couple bucks a month and thus it seems fair. I'll even advertise for him - buy his book - it was well worth it to me.
Thanks for addressing my comment, Jesse! I got home from work, started dinner, plopped down for a bit to listen to your latest podcast and I was shocked and giddy to hear my name!! Yep, I'm 45 but still a child when it comes to hearing my name on TV! I'm still interested in your harvesting techniques and tools you use. Great work, Jesse. Good luck to you, your channel, your farm and your family in 2025!
speaking of fun! I wondered if we could just make our own slo-mo of Jesse harvesting lettuce---and of course we can! With the playback speed on .25 (TH-cam settings/playback speed), not only can we watch his stellar knife skills, but also be entertained by a fictional Jesse who is either really super chill or has been partaking of something very relaxing . . .
And I appreciate Jesse's natural talking pace! Most channels I choose to watch at 1.5x normal speed just to help move things along. I haven't found same need on this channel.
Jesse, great comments on you deciding not to be organic anymore, I appreciate the organic certification from farms I don't know, however I prefer to know that that food I don't in a positive manner such as organic or regenitive, that what important not an organizational approval. You are doing great work keep it up.
Great points regarding certification. The Real Organic project should be a stand-alone certification. I've learnt from dealing with committees for far too long that when bad actors start to inhabit the space, good people get disenfranchised and leave. USDA certification has been hijacked and I don't know if there is any way of reconciling it.
I had an old fertilizer spreader took the slide pieces off bottom that puts down how much fertilizer is spread The tumbler part inside turns an drops compost I can get fine compost from my city an this works frat for covering grass seed Haven't used for garden though
Again, very graceful handling of somewhat "acerbic" criticism. People are passionate I guess. I think the naunce in your stance may also have been missed. Namely the challenges of widening Organic certification to include hydroponics. Keep up the good work and good luck on Sunday against Man U! As a Liverpoolian we like when anyone beats them!
You don't have to be certified organic to practice regenerative agriculture or promote a healthy ecology. The benefits of good soil and plant management speak for themselves.
Organic certification is a joke now anyway. When I graduated my teacher said to just let local certs and say organically grown. Its all a money scam without quality to the farmers.
My question is - are you going to change your prices now that you are not certified organic? I remember you bragging about how much more "organic" produce can be sold at. Makes no sense that you would suddenly abandon organic if this is the case. I never wasted my time with organic - sometimes I have to spray chemicals and if I do I simply tell my customers. You aren't growing organic pumpkins for example. It is literally impossible.

Free but chocked full of advertisements. You watch they pay. Your time they pay. Not free
@@lomdan that's why I sit through them for my favorite utubers.
@@hopebradley1417Exactly. That is how they make $$.

I've had great success using wintersowing with onions and shallots
Thank you for the comment on money
And organic certification. The world needs more people live you
Hey Nerd! You’re my favorite gardener, and I love doing the nerd out thing with you. 🎉❤ 😊
I love ALL No-Till Growers videos!

Sounds like he needs to change the grate size on the compost roller

I think growing organically is important. I'm not so sure that the certification is worth it anymore.
What ever happened to Josh S?
A shovel is human powered compost spreader.
