goshawk!

Protecting the soil from the sun changes the micro-climate and more roots and deeper roots in the ground sequester water and carbon... Let's continue to encourage this!

Loved those sock puppets and what they told us about

God bless 🙏

Excellent video

Excellent video, need more videos

Learning the fundamentals from a man like Richard is a rare treat for a blacksmith of any experience level. Such a kind individual, and a master of his craft.

Thank you. First time hearing of this project!

Wow! What an inspiring project and group of people. I like the comment by a young woman that she and the other leaders will watch these native trees grow for decades. Thank you!

Very cool project and an excellent video as well

I love BECY! Thanks for making this film. Have loved working with students from BECY from Douglas, Patagonia, and Nogales in years past. Our erosion control structures constructed by BECY students are awesome and part of every ranch tour we give. You all are awesome beyond words, and doing amazing work on behalf of the land and all it’s inhabitants. Thank you all so much. Abrasos, besos, y saludos por todos. Mucho gusto mis amigos!

Where's the update?

You need to take the dead growth off the grass plant, otherwise it will choke it self. It can not shed its own leafs like trees can. This act of removing dead growth from grasses was done by huge amounts of herbivorous (herds of 100.000+ was common) until mankind killed them off, and with them gone, so disappeared the vital grasses that kept the soil in place, covered/shaded so water didnt evaporate or in general just healthy so that the soil could feed rivers with water throughout the year. The dominant plants that we see today are what we call rest tolerate species taking over, species that can reproduce without the symbiosis with grazing animals, but also way less of a benefit the the environment as a whole. We can mimic these gone mega herds with livestock to bring back the health of these dead landscapes if we want to.

I very much appreciate the work that you all are doing. Thanks for this insightful video, and especially stomping those asters after they have dried out sufficiently. And best of all, when you see the fingernails of a true earth woman, you better show some respect. Perrin, you rock! Great job….

ruclips.net/video/9Msls5JtwQ0/видео.html , great video

Thanks so much for doing what you do. Such a pleasure to have the privilege of working with you all from time to time....❤️❤️❤️

Despite the media, Arizona and Sonora are great historic neighbors. God bless our Sonoran Desert.

Thank you for doing the Lord’s work my friends. Imagine if we gave the military money to countless organizations like you guys and the economy became something where we just green the planet so much that no one starves because there is so much fruit on the trees? Some day in our lifetimes hopefully. This is amazing work

Whoever is editing and shooting these videos for you guys is legit AF. I’m starting a new media/RUclips channel called Wild Arizona and I want to get to this level of skill and creativity. Kudos to you guys for the work that you do. My wife and I have considered moving to the Patagonia region and we would definitely love to get involved with you guys. It’s time to rewild Arizona and make it the Garden of Eden it was meant to be.

As a 40 year old I echo the words that Ben shared. Better late than never

You guys seriously rock!

How can people push the dislike button on this? The old paradigm dies hard I guess

I love this video! I have really enjoyed working with Borderlands Restoration Earth Care Youth. Their work is helping to restore our watershed which comes out of the Mule Mountains, and drains into the Whitewater Draw, and eventually the Rio Yaqui.

Please add photos of 'before and after' the Holistic Planned Grazing or Managed Intensive Grazing. Too many people think that grazing and/or browsing animals cause desertification and need to see how properly managed grazing RESTORES the land. Wealthy and powerful people and corporations are investing heavily in fake 'meat' substitutes. To promote their products and profits, they are claiming that animals damage the land, give off greenhouse gas - (though one acre of healthy pasture land can absorb as much methane as about 200 head of cattle can produce, so pastureland for raising beef and dairy cattle can absorb as much as 199 times the methane that one cow burps!), and other propaganda. Please share the facts. When properly managed to mimic the natural relationship between the land and animals, they need to see that cattle and other livestock can: - Halt soil erosion - Reduce or eliminate evaporation of moisture from the soil - Reduce temperatures of soil surfaces exposed to sunlight, by as much as 10 +/- degrees F. Given the increasing amount of desert, near desert, and bare soil in crop fields, along with the sunlight hitting pavement and buildings around the world, this ALONE can account for much of the change we are all seeing in climate and weather patterns. (Decreasing pollution is always a good idea, of course.) - Significantly increases the vitally important soil life. - Increases soil fertility, and yield - year after year - WITHOUT expensive fertilizers (that kill soil life, pollute waterways and groundwater, and/or gass off into the air), AND while producing highly nutritious and tasty food for humans. - Increases infiltration of rainfall into the soil, which restores the water cycle: groundwater, springs, streams, lakes, and rivers are all renewed - without topsoil loss through water erosion, AND water-dwelling wildlife that needs clear water to survive can be restored, too. - Increases biodiversity both above and below the soil surface. Diverse communities of soil organisms, plant life, and wildlife = an ecosystem more resilient to stress, including weather extremes, climate change, etc. If someone chooses not to eat meat, the Earth still needs the ecological functions provided by the hundreds of millions of herbivores that were here just a 100-500 years ago.

What does Cuenca Los Ojos mean?

Looks like a big crew! Que bueno! Best way for the next generation to learn, and appreciate both the traditional, and the progressive!

I love the vocalizations of wild turkeys! And there demeanor is so gentle and yet so dignified.....

Yes it can be done, even in our deserts. I live in Casa Grande. Just now starting cover crop gardens. Found Sonora Wheat from Baker's rare seeds. Can't wait to try this. THANKS FOR THE VIDEO. Have you considered a chicken trailer after the cows are moved off. ?

Mediocre blacksmith! So old he can barely swing his hammer. Look at his hands shake! There are many better ones.

Martha, what a beautiful video! I love your pottery. We are blessed to have your gift in Patagonia!

I love this video! I hope to be able to visit the Borderlands Restoration Nursery soon, and obtain some pollinator plants to be transplanted to our ranch headquarters area where we are working on restoring more habitat for native pollinators. You guys are doing awesome work, and I am so happy to be able to join you from time to time, and to partner with Borderlands Restoration to actually carry out projects to increase biodiversity, and resilience in our unique sky islands ecoregion.

Awesome video! You guys are absolutely great editors, and fabulous photographers! I would love to visit with you some day. I could learn a few things...... Richard is pretty cool too. I learned a lot from this video! Would love to visit the shop, and and see his work in person.....

I am very interested in "HOW" to get funds directly in the hands of these projects! ??? I am not interested in any facilitators of fund transferring! As my 'Dad" taught me in the investment world but in all of life. "know the people you are dealing with"

Gusto mucho la musica!

Awesome video! Laura and Oliver are excellent videographers! Thanks for the work that you do!!!

Wonderful flight, over an amazing landscape! Thank you for sharing this special experience. 😍😎

Another great example of cross border conservation ranching! Quenca Los Ojos, and Jose Manuel, Perez are amazing!!!

Thanks for the chance to say something nice about farmer's markets.

I love the sandhill cranes at the end! Great job, nice video!

Great, just need 20 times the animals in that herd.
