when i was younger, i felt i wanted to be a botanist, but i didnt think that would get me anywhere. i pursued a job in computer networking. my private school was caught committing 700k of fraud and my credits were invalidated. i pursued another passion, locksmithing, and i like it, 6 years later. i am only recently rediscovering my desire to grow plants again. I hope i get the chance.
This video is my very favorite for the visual ideas that follow permaculture. From the bottom of my earth-loving heart to deep in my visual learning brain...I THANK YOU!!!
ive been saving money for a permaculture foodforrest for about 7 years now. So far i have 54,000 dollars. i live in southern California . all i want is atleast three acres and a water well. any advice? i feel like a hopeless dreamer
8:12 what are the "cold tolerant" varieties of banana which do good there in Ojai? I have a Raja Puhri (spelling ?) banana which is growing very well in Vista, California 92081, so far it has made small finger sized bananas. It does well at my very windy hilltop since the plant is very short and does not blow over like some taller varieties I have tried growing. I also have another banana which does excellant , a short plant with medium sized bananas , but no one knows what variety it is.
Some cold-tolerant banana varieties that can grow relatively well in a Mediterranean climate include the Musa basjoo, Musa sikkimensis, and Musa velutina. These varieties can handle cooler temperatures better compared to other banana species, but they still require protection from frost and prefer warmer conditions.
Thanks to you and everyone around you for taking the time to create and share this video and all of the other content you've made available. I have had literal dreams of coming to East End Eden, I think about it every day. Thanks again for a new video, I know I'll see you at the PDC after this October. Sending love
My mom lives on the ventura side of the border that divides ventura and los angeles counties. Hardiness zone 10a. Her property isnt huge but theres enough room to implement some of these ideas. I've been wanting to create a permaculture food forest there for some time. I believe with enough patience and hard work we can achieve a micro climate that attracts beneficial wildlife as well. Sorry to see that this channel no longer creates content. This was a good video.
When I lived in California I found tree trimmers liked to get rid of mulch because they would have to pay to drop it at the city compost facility. A website called chip drop will connect you with the companies who want to get rid of wood chips.
How do the fruit trees get watered from May thru September? There must be very little runoff then… I’m in SoCal down in East County San Diego. We’re planning a few fruit trees but concerned about the amount of irrigation
To have enough water for the summer, you need to retain as much rainwater on your property as possible. If your neighbors did it too, you all benefit. You can find good info here: th-cam.com/users/GeoffLawtonOnline
he said he took over the land. so sections are in about a year and section are bring it back to life. keep in many cali farmers went belly up due to drought. not preparing their land for drought. not deep mulching. not setting up effective systems even though they have been told for 20 plus years and have access to no interest loans. that these issues would come up.
Hey does the perennial tree chili got another more common name? because i've tried google it but nothing special came up, beside the regular chillies...

do you do permaculture?
@@pacifichailie I am doing as many permaculture practices as is possible.
Wow, so many lessons to learn here. that's a nice spillway setup you got there with those rocks to prevent erosion.
Amazing work! Very inspirational
The tree chili is my favorite one. It looks so cool.

Tree Chili-s. Why, oh, why don't I live somewhere tropical or near tropical. Oh, well, I'm gonna grow mulberries and persimmons.
This is my dream

Where did you get your compost material? Seem a large land to compost How did you do it?
When I lived in California I found tree trimmers liked to get rid of mulch because they would have to pay to drop it at the city compost facility. A website called chip drop will connect you with the companies who want to get rid of wood chips.
can't wait for an update
Do you offer or allow tours? I will be in San Diego area in a week I'd love to view your property
Danica Ojai is in Ventura. It would be about a 3-5 hour drive from SD depending on traffic. :)

Do you know of a good irrigation specialist that will come to Simi Valley for a small installation?
Are you George Kittle?
How do you spell that legume tree that adds the nitrogen to the soil ? Tikawana ?
tipuana tipu
All this in one year? Seems too good to be true and you know what they say about "too good to be true".
he said he took over the land. so sections are in about a year and section are bring it back to life. keep in many cali farmers went belly up due to drought. not preparing their land for drought. not deep mulching. not setting up effective systems even though they have been told for 20 plus years and have access to no interest loans. that these issues would come up.
