Wow! So beautiful and inspiring. I am starting my food forest in a 50 acre land. At first I don't know where to start. After watching your video I was so inspired that all my negative thoughts had vanished. Thank you very much and God bless you!
Your family is living on a paradise here on earth. I appreciate very much what you are doing with your kid with you. So wonderful. God bless your family.
If I did not saw the farm is in NSW Australia I would say Geoff build his farm in Bangladesh. The farm looks like a typical Bangladeshi village....from magpie robin to Water lilies...each and every plants are common in BD....even those chickens looks like our Desi chicken lol....Really great work done by Geoff ❤️️
Would be great to see some videos of harvesting food from your food forests. And would be great to see some info on the economics of your place, How much do you make selling the food from your food forests, what is your revenue/profit per area of land, what are you cost/expenses. How viable is this as a business, or is it more of a hobby/for personal consumption?
They are a demonstration site and educational farm first and foremost, I don’t think they sell produce much but they feed a lot of people coming through on courses. Geoff has lots of videos visiting the people who are using these techniques for commercial operations and checking out their setups. Generally it is like Zaytuna but scaled back and simplified. Like a person with an orchard first and foremost, maybe three or four kinds of fruit, who grows herbs and fruit in the understory or between rows and makes their own compost. Versus a mostly wild food forest with 100 species.
im torn with this whole system because i love the fruit tree side of it all and the food forest but the whole "meat" goats and cows and chickens is just so wrong to me, this video was made 6 years ago, maybe theyve evolved to vegan by now lol cause as far as im concerned if you cant have animals on your land without you killing them for food or selling them to butchers you dont deserve those animals.. we dont do it to dogs but we would if we had to right.. keep it real
The ethical issue isn't meat eating, its how the meat was produced. Even peta gets behind lab-grown meat, because its the cruelty that's offensive, not the decision about what food we fuel our bodies with.
If you give the animal the best conditions to live, well fed and raised, and give it a clean death you can feed a lot of people. The same divine hand that gave us that animal, will take our bodies too and surrender us to a greater good.
Meat harvesting wont end in this 100 yrs or the next. If you want to help change the world your wasting your time trying to get a productive veganism movment rolling. Your also expressing your privlage constantly. A large population of our planet certainly doesn't have the means to provide themselves with vegan diets. What you can help change, without the influence of your personal life decisions, is how this meat is grown. It is disrespectful and unhealthy to not use livestock to their fullest by having them work your land. Its also destructive to the environment to monoculturally raise livestock. You get real! Get involved with globally relatable movements!
I agree with Joe and Osmar. In nature, animals are part of the picture. Whether we eat them or other predators eat them, their populations will be controlled by a natural balance otherwise they become pests. If we can use the help of animals to regenerate land, give them a life as close as their natural life would have been (instead of the horrible life at a factory farm) and feed people with the surplus then I don't see what's wrong with it. Also most human societies don't eat dogs because they have evolved as our companions, not as our food. I eat vegan quite often so I understand your concern, but if I had a farm like this I would also like chickens for the ocasional egg and some meat for a special ocasion. I would be grateful to them, of course, for the nourishment they provide.

So sweet that you carried your baby everywhere on your back. Loved hearing and watching her. What a great education from a great teacher!

How could an individual interested in learning permaculture intern at your farm?
I love these videos so much but unfortunately no Subtitle :( my english is not good
Great video. What tree oil do you use to keep the flys off the cows?
Thanks.
Natural tree oils

Such beauty is untold
What was in the fishing net that the cows rubbed against when getting milked to keep flies off of them? I couldn't hear what he said.
