4 Years of Self Sufficiency | Our Permaculture Journey
ฝัง
- เผยแพร่เมื่อ 8 ก.ย. 2024
- Heya folks! What a journey it has been these last few years. We started in 2020, putting in our ponds and food forests. Going no dig in 2021, opening our farm shop, delivering produce to restaurants... And the rest is history. We've been completely self-sufficient and abundant in the most delicious seasonal vegetables and eggs for over 2 years now. I hope you enjoy this little video showing the progress as it happened and taking you right through to today in our permaculture paradise of food and wildlife. Feel free to ask any questions or check out our other videos to see things in more detail.

Randomly found this little gem after watching charles dowding - no dig . Am in my second year of my garden and love channels like this. You created something special .I'll keep watching too 👍
Glad to have you aboard! Have a great season! Year 2 is really exciting. 😄
Amazing. I love these types of videos but you rarely see an Irish one. Its great to see whats achievable in our climate
Heya, glad you enjoyed it!
binge watch 4 videos so far it's awesome
You both must have worked like fury to do all that in four years - oh my goodness, just incredible! So many aspects of good agriculture and permaculture, soil care and pollinator habitat, almost a closed-system of self-sustainment! Thank you for making this wonderful story in video, it is a real study in best practices and shows what smart planning and smart working can accomplish! Just thrilled for you both! Congratulations!
Thank you very much indeed for your kind words.
OUCH! your poor head. :D Your life is what I've been dreaming of for years. I really hope I can make it come true one day.
The best advice I can give is to just start if you haven't already. I procrastinated for years too. Get going, wherever you can, even if it's on rented land, and make a habit of it. It will grow over time.
Lovely!
Work of art, a credit to you
Much appreciated. Thanks!

Great to see all the documentation of so many years work. Well done.
My heart jumped when the plastic blew off the tunnel 😀
Thanks Odhran, it's come a long way! Putting up that tunnel was torture the whole way through 🤣 . Well worth it though.
Nice work! Ngl I wanted you to make deeper ponds to raise fish and connect them together maybe add solar pumps I loved your front yard ambience and trees(birch?) please update on your food forest! l

Inspiring, extraordinary. Ecological conscience.
During the video, I felt mixed feelings. It's great to see movements like this grow, I'm very happy to see that. You guys do an admirable job.
But I am Brazilian, my country did not carry out agrarian reform due to prejudice and greed, we live in the landlord model of export production. The descendants of enslaved people were segregated from society, without rights, that's why we have a large contingent of slums.
Fortunately, here there is a social movement called MST: Landless Rural Workers Movement. They occupy abandoned federal lands for the establishment of farming families, who produce agroecological organic food for the city. They are the largest producers of organic rice in Latin America. 450,000 families have already conquered their lands through the struggle and organization of this social movement. There are still 500,000 families missing to conquer a piece of land and have a dignified life. Everyone needs to have the right to own land and housing.
We're about the same age, but I'm not in a position to buy land right now. I will buy it as soon as possible and build my paradise.
I loved your work, thank you!
What an amazing transformation your hard work has done. Did you get the chance to plant any of the Ukrainian seeds?
Thanks man. I did a few but still have loads left that I never got around to. We're thinking of doing things a bit differently next year, so hopefully will get more chances to experiment!
Great work. Just wondering where do you get your veg seeds and have you started saving your own seeds yet.?
We get seeds from a few places. Seedaholic are great. Also, Irish Seed Savers, Sow Diverse and deBolster for commercial quantities. We save some seeds, mostly flowers though. For our salads and brassicas, we rely on the professionals to keep it true to seed.
Can I ask what size the field is? Amazing work.
Heya, thanks! The Field is about 4,500m² / 1 acre
