Im sure im not alone when I say it would be fantastic to see whats going on over here since the install! If thats too much work, we could be held over with just a current walk around the home food forest! *its been a while!
Don’t cut yourself short, You’re an amazing photographer and your good enough to recognize good from bad technology. You’re even more talented about tropicals than anyone I’ve every known or watched. Keep up the great work and videos Pete. Love watching your channel!
What these owners must feel when they look out at their fledgling forest, must be euphoric, I know it is for me...with each new video I embed in my mind the next trees and plants to add to my forest...always a world of information I embrace your enthusiasm and knowledge...and cheers to your efforts and to us Floridians who are your tribe...we can't lose this amazing state...one planting at a time, it's how we roll...!!!
Pete thanks for all you are doing and your passion for florida and plants. First 3 minutes should be it's on video to encourage permaculture as a cultural practice in florida to save us.
You never filter your thoughts on these chemicals that most people use and dont think twice about. All chemicals should be banned world wide, and not just in agriculture products, but all products. That's a future I want to see. Keep it up. Conscious thinking needs to spread fast. God bless you Pete.
Looking forward to phase 2. The weather may be discouraging, but the mere fact that you're finding these clients who are willing and able to hire you is extremely encouraging. The return on their investment is going to be rapid and delicious and beautiful... and good for all of us and the wildlife at the same time. So, hat tip to your clients too. I also concur with the others... I only remember one video with audio problems. Cut yourself some slack. Your quality and cinematography is great.
I love farms and that right I am planning to go to Haiti even though it not easy for me. I learn a lot about how to grow up my country with lot of 🌲 and after they grow we can have rain, then our polulation can plants all kinds of vegetables and fruits to survive. I can't stop thinking about where I can found the machine I can use for compost and others materials as necessary for that project. I love to watch this video when a friend of mine I usually talking about how I want to plant a lot of 🌲 in Haiti. I am crazy to see this and I hope I have the opportunity for my project too.
Agree with others your videos are excellent and you keep it real. Am very hopeful to see this property in a year after grow out and dry up! So much diversity is awesome! Thanks!
Nice to see Pete , that you try to create some places in to Paradise for Nature on this Planet in your lifetime. We love the positive energy you put in your work and video's Blessings , also for your Family ... from the Netherlands
I just can't fathom that amount of water Pete! NSW Australia is in saddening drought, so send some over will you ;) We all have to meet our challenges because it isn't changing any time soon. You and the GreenDreamsFL team do a wonderful job coming up with solutions for now and the future one project at a time. PS Camera/audio-superb, as always.
@@PeteKanarisGreenDreamsFL I went to hs near Tampa & my buddies grandparents had a lush beautiful garden that just amazed me being a kid who grew up in the middle of Chicago, now that im going back I can finally do the same, thanks again love your videos, keep changing lives
773 p Contact me first. I’ll tell you where to buy... Not a Realtor, just a friendly local who wants to see more people buy land with a little room for food sustainability on it.. I dislike these stacked homes, It’s just makes sense for everyone.
did not know that about HOA's never even thought about it. makes sense. very eye opening as I live in South Florida, and you cant get away from HOA's Unless you have a lot of money. land is very valuable here.
You have a dream job and you already know that. BUT this past year in Florida has been so discouraging. After years of above normal temps for winter this past winter was a killer for many of us. Its been a wet summer. Its easier to add water than take it away. I so much enjoy your channel and look forward to each video. Thanks for sharing.
I have to agree even if some of the things done that are causing such extremes were to be abandoned I think it would take some time for things to 'normalize' perse. I get frustrated knowing what I do and seeing the effects of it.
wow another spectacular job! Thats going to look gorgeous all grown out. You're awesome. and speaking of rain in sth florida, Here it comes again! pouring as we speak..lol peace niki
Great job. Tough job with all the rain--worked some at that up around Ocala. On a small scale getting wet turf out IS crazy; tried that near Austin during Hugo! You go, man!
Pete I love your videos! I’m inspired now to try to start a mini food forest/vocational art educational projects at home. We are going to be trying to apply for some grants as we have been greatly inspired by Dr. Temple Grandin. Vocational arts have been cut throughout the US but we are trying to bring this back for our son, we would love to see educational information on this for families like ours seeking alternative education opportunities.
Another nice video, Pete. Thanks! How wide is the long mound and about how high above the original ground level is the avocado planted? I'm about to begin doing the same kind of install on my property in Sarasota. Looking for ideas as to how high to mound the new soil due to the same high water table conditions as your clients have.
Great vid...we the students dont judge you for your video quality, it's real I personally prefer real if I wanted fake I'd be watching CNN. Good shit sir. Much respect
Saw this video later....would you have consulted the homeowners about a probable swail for for the water retention part of their property? Curious as to how you might handle that kind of area with all the different weather conditions in the area. Thanks. As always, another great video !!
Hey Ann! Swales rarely apply in Florida due to the lack of slope. We've done a few projects now with these lumped beds and they seem to work well in the rainy season. On this property its the surrounding development that has caused most of the standing water not allowing it to naturally run off.
Awesome job! ❤️👍 , how much that costs to do all that fruits forests landscapes? Next year we will come to fort Myers Area looking for the property to buy, And we are going to need you and your teams to help us😁 and thank you very much for a nice video 🙏❤️👍
YOUR videos are awesome and informative! Good to know you have some nice projects going... congrats on that ... your beautiful landscaping talented for sure. you are on the cutting edge of the way our future landscapes are going to be we can all do this on a small scale on 10,000 sq ft lots 🍒🍓🍅🍄🥑🥝🍊🍌🍍🍈🥒🌶🍑🥔🥔🥦🍄
Seriously awesome and I love your channel. This just doesn’t seem affordable for the average person. Do you do this for mostly very wealthy people/land owners?
What elements or ideas/theories of permaculture do you use in your projects the most? I live in North central Minnesota and have wondered what might work best here using native and some plants like apples, etc. I have such a wide range of soil, drainage, etc plus I have cattle. I just don't like anything that is invasive. I struggle with pussy willow and quack grass. I have become hesitant to use elderberry for the same reason. Thanks for sharing your projects. :)
McCoy's Oak Hill Farm I’d suggest taking a look at what Mark Shepard has planted on his food forest. He’s a similar growing zone. Chestnuts, Hazelnuts, Mulberry, Raspberry, Asparagus, Apples, Elderberry, Korean Pine (for pine nuts), locust, basswood, etc.... . It’s been several years since I’ve been up to his place but that is what I remember off the top of my head.
I looked him up if he is in SW Wisconsin he is even way warmer than I am with longer growing season. In my neck of the woods we can easy hit 30-40 below zero for up to a week at a time, so I am more borderline zone 2-3 with an actual growing time frame of about June 1st to maybe mid Sept. I was thinking more in the principles and theories than plants. I should have worded my first post differently. Anyways, I will watch some of his videos to see what he says about design, placement, theories, etc. Thanks for mentioning him. :)
The problem of red tides is far greater than they are saying. And in the Caribbean we have the segaster seaweed overgrowth. Large blooming of this seaweed that takes over the beaches, smells and kills small fish . Pollution. It's a big problem everywhere.
While it's inspiring to see this project come to life and we need many many more to make real change. The financial costs of what your doing here is just not practical for the average person to do. It would be great to see something like this accomplished on a more reasonable budget.
SugarCreek Homestead- Pete has an extensive library of YT vids including some really cool smaller projects that are more affordable... but he's teaching us how to do it ourselves too, which is always the most affordable path. This is a great community. Don't know where you are geographically, but if you ask for help, there's a good chance someone will have cuttings or seeds to share. Most of us are in the same boat... dreaming green without the budget to hire the team.
How do we reverse the damage we have allowed to happen with Lake Okeechobee? That is a rhetorical question but also an important one. The last thing Americans need to consume is sugar. WE need to get You Tube vloggers together to make a difference. A meeting of the minds to get the word out to people we need to change how we get food and what kind of food we eat. It is a big order to fill but we need to start somewhere. I am asking you to thnk about this and talking to people you know. Our children deserve better.

Almost building Chinampa's in that setting..

Nice. What are they going to do the cement rectangle in the middle? some kind of patio?
After an install do you provide the property owner a guide on how to upkeep the property?
do you have current pictures of this job it would be nice to see the progress after almost two years
Crazy dirt issue.. how much is each load?

How many acres is this property?
I'm really curious on the price of a project like this!
Seriously awesome and I love your channel. This just doesn’t seem affordable for the average person. Do you do this for mostly very wealthy people/land owners?
uf lab said I have fusarium root rot a viras on fakahatchee grass. can you advise. trying to create food like yours. thanks
Where do you the fruit trees from? Thanks for the patience as you may have been asked in the comments below
