It’s interesting how it sounded like a sermon about turning from sin and turning toward Christ. I am struck again and again how our physical life and the nature in front of us is an object lesson of spiritual truth, Joel Salatin pointed that out to me and I just can’t unsee it. I’m enjoying your style greatly and how I can see the Holy Spirit in you. Thanks a lot!
This is the short version 😁 Thanks for sharing. You are a true treasure for every gardener. I tell other people about your channel almost once a week. 👍
Thank you so much for being so generous with your knowledge. I really have learned a lot and gained tons of inspiration from your videos. You know you're basically propogating not only crops, but the permaculture movement everywhere your videos are available. It's wonderful.
Lord luvs ducks Stephan. Thank you what a Christmas gift. I have been watching you a while. Ahhhg LA belle Provence. Can't wait to come visit you. We wanna grow our food forest in Gaspe QC. Merry Christmas blessings sir!!!!
Love the tip about bending a branch into the soil. I have tried air rooting, but our Australian summers are too hot, and the medium drys out. Been watching you for years. And am always learning. And laughed about growing what grows like weeds. Sadly cherries don't grow here, but apples grow rampantly in the same place. Regarding amendments to the soil. We have very acidic soils, and very low phosphate. Our trees are now taking off when I throw a small handful of super phosphate into the hole. (I know. I know. Shock horror for the purists. ) the small amount we use doesn't negatively affect the overall health of the soil. Instead the soil is remarkably improved with plants / trees thriving.
Love it so much I went through the link and bought it only a fiver and downloaded it. to save my internet on the phone. But this download is only an hour fifty odd. where as this is 7 hours long did I get the wrong one 🤷♂️👍🇬🇬
It was called the permaculture patch beyond organic. I was just making sure as there maybe a lot more packed in the 7hrs on utube. to the one I have bought. I didn’t want to miss out on the extra experience and knowledge you have to offer. if there is another please let me know👍🇬🇬
1:57:12 - why not grow bush beans, instead of climbing ones? Or use dwarf grey peas. The shoots are great in salads or cooked, they double as a green mulch, replacing plastic, there may even be a pea or 2 even under the most dense of the canopies, and the nitrogen is available immediately after the plant dies, as opposed to after pruning or cutting a nitrogen fixer tree.
3:18:13 - I actually do something with my weeds: I harvest them. The edible ones. They are so much more nutrient dense than the domesticated plants. Quite tasty, too.
Quick question on small fruits. I'm down in Kentucky and gooseberry, blackberry, and black raspberry are all basically wild here. I've found a number of gooseberry and black raspberries in the shade. Is it a good strategy to move those into sunny areas next to my trees?
You can but a better strategy is to use them as a source of information that they will grow like weeds on your site and go full steam ahead and plant their kind using “improved” cultivars that are known to have great fruiting qualities and features (like no spines or less spines). I love that they are proving the concept of what will grow super easily and be productive, especially if they get a bit more light.
@@StefanSobkowiak That makes sense. I'm doing that as well - I have purchased improved varieties of both of them. The issue is that this is a new property and I don't have a lot of plant material at the moment and there is lots of wild ones around right now. Thanks for the information. That concept you introduced about growing what is "weeds" around your place is my guiding marker with this property. We have paw paw, black raspberry, autumn olive, gooseberry, mulberry, and blackberry growing up with no help here.
3:12:20 - what you actually mean there, and what should be understood there is: " don't put them in a public area, don't plant them clandestine, don't be a rebel", because we're all law abiding citizens here. My question is: what would be the best public area to not put them in?
Is that a reverse question?? Base it on frequency and intensity of maintenance for the area. It only takes one zealous maintenance person to cut out all your efforts.
Mind boggling amount of information I thank you for it. My entire upper field is based on your teachings. On that subject of black walnuts. A lot of research told me to keep non-tolerant trees at least 50 feet from them so I planted 4 Black Walnut seedlings on the edge of the above mentioned field then a row of 4 American Chestnuts. This Spring I'll start filling in between all those trees with juglone tolerant trees, etc. a kind of buffer zone, before planting the non tolerant fruit trees and shrubs. Past that orchard leave a space for wildflowers and bird houses then I'm going to prep an area for a new vegetable garden. Moving past the future garden plot I've already started a second orchard of non juglone tolerant fruit trees. 50 feet past those I planted a few butternut and 2 northern Pecans so I also now have the area between them to fill in with tolerant plants as well. Effectively creating buffer zone #2. Its all very exciting. I promise not to forget my nitrogen fixers! Thanking you again.
1:48:48 - I have 3 types of raspberries. One of them is possessed, and spreads in all directions, like a fiend. Unfortunately, the name tags faded in 3 years of sun and rain. So, don't plant *that* one...
@@StefanSobkowiak Of all the knowledge you passed along ... all of this was the ancestor's plain and simple knowledge. No allopathic - cut, replace, or kill mechanical or chemical mindset. But, it is a naturopathic and homeopathic mindset. Don't look at the symptoms - look at the cause. Then deal with the cause and all of the symptoms will be solved. Naturally clean up and nutrient the environment and there won't be any disease in the system. Same for human health. Weeds and pests are just symptoms and indicators of disruption. Having a perfect Creation, then even the weeds and pests live happily with you, and the rest of the tweeties etc. So simple with explanations and depictions - even a less-than-intelligent person can become a great permaculture adept. Of course, this is not applicable to politicians and academics as they are less-than - less-than-intelligent with their faulty foundations and false concepts in how to manipulate and create a man made millennial creation - only to schmuck up the whole divinely-operated Creation. Its a wonder we haven't had a total food. critter, and biological collapse, alongside critter collapses. This makes me wonder about swine flu, avian flu, and other sorts of diseases and in how humanity might have created them, just like intensive gardening, and feedlot beef, when everything was meant to be free range, and distributed and mixed crops and species - no monoculture.
Thank you so much for the video💞 I know that I love plants, trees and flowers, but in permaculture don't you have to have animals? I'm so grateful that people are becoming more and more aware of monoculture disasters. Thank you so much for permaculture! 💞🐝🌲🕊️🌳🍁🐿️🙏🌎🐝🌱☘️🌼🌳🌾🌿🍆🌲🍅🪲🐞🐦🐔🕊️🦚
You can have a permaculture orchard without animals, but having animals can add to the complexity and benefits of the system. Giving you a more functional ECOsystem. Your choice.

It's great to see that you're finding these connections! Nature speaks of a creator.

You're welcome, enjoy!
Thank you so much for being so generous with your knowledge. I really have learned a lot and gained tons of inspiration from your videos. You know you're basically propogating not only crops, but the permaculture movement everywhere your videos are available. It's wonderful.
That's my mission.
This video compilation is so valuable!! Thank you so much. May you and your family be abundantly bless with supernatural GRACE today.

Time to go to work 😂
Lord luvs ducks Stephan. Thank you what a Christmas gift. I have been watching you a while. Ahhhg LA belle Provence. Can't wait to come visit you. We wanna grow our food forest in Gaspe QC. Merry Christmas blessings sir!!!!
Merry Christmas to you too!
I don't know if this is long enough Stefan. Hahaha, thank you.
Hahaha, glad you think so.
Thank you! Such a treasure trove of knowledge
You're very welcome!
Thank you so much. Most of my research all hones into these principles you exemplified. I feel justified and emboldened!
We are all on the same path together!
Still making my way through all this gold 🥇
God Bless you, brother!! Thank you for this.
You're welcome! Blessings to you too.
It's always a pleasure to learn from you!
-JD
... long enough to leave on repeat. ; ))))))
Hahaha, certainly long enough to leave play in the background while doing something else and be stopped every once in a while to say WHAAAATTT!
Thank you for the content
Vey informative as usual
Much appreciated
@StefanSobkowiak you're welcome
Super, thank you.
💕💕💕

Sounds like you are getting great results! Nothing beats trial and error, ideally other peoples errors. If it works it works, go for it.
Thank you.

You probably downloaded yesterday’s video (most recent). Look at the length of the videos. All good.
It was called the permaculture patch beyond organic. I was just making sure as there maybe a lot more packed in the 7hrs on utube. to the one I have bought. I didn’t want to miss out on the extra experience and knowledge you have to offer. if there is another please let me know👍🇬🇬

I actually got the movie a few years ago, on a disk. watched it twice. Lots of amazing information.
I am glad you found it helpful!
3:18:13 - I actually do something with my weeds: I harvest them. The edible ones. They are so much more nutrient dense than the domesticated plants. Quite tasty, too.
Absolutely my favourites are lamb’s quarter and chickweed.
Infinite thanks 😂😂😂😂 Great
Will this be available here indefinitely for free?
Yes it will

Dang! So big, thank you
The Lord bless you, dear brother. We are on Prince Edward Island.
thx Stefan ! :)
Definately checking out the nursery in clay soil. 😊
Stefan, happy name's Day!

2:47:47 - pruning for shape? Of course, please do!

That is an awesome plan and great to see you putting what you've learned into practice!
8:09 - not all vegetables need full sun here, my lettuces bolt much later if under a canopy.
wow!!!
1:48:48 - I have 3 types of raspberries. One of them is possessed, and spreads in all directions, like a fiend. Unfortunately, the name tags faded in 3 years of sun and rain. So, don't plant *that* one...
Sound like THAT one grows like a weed, so use it.
Hey Stefan are you a Christian?? I get that sense when I watch your videos so I thought I'd ask
Yes since the 80s.
@StefanSobkowiak Praise God! That's awesome to hear
RUSM Stefan ? !!! 7+ hours, even at 2x speed is 3 1/2 hours of listening, watching, taking notes, ... !!!
I’m glad you are getting so much out of it!

I'm starting this 7hr Journey. Even if I watched straight through. I wouldn't finish till next year.
