- In the face of the damage and loss on this farm wrought by the explosive eruption of La Soufriere, in this April 18, 2021 interview, Lennox Lampkin tells iWitness News that the volcanic eruption is a good thing…
Thanks for interviewing Mr. Lampkin! He has a good story! I usually watch his videos as well!
This is a smart man for being prepared, he has battery powered tolls and solar panels and stored water which is very important at this time. Everyone should think seriously about being self-preparedness for any natural disaster. He is very smart and optimistic person, his outlook on life and his ability to prosper is very good, unfortunately not everyone thinks that way. I wish him the best of luck in all his endeavors also for all others affected with this setback, with perseverance everyone will progress. Prayers and Blessing to one and all.
@ Rehaan i disagree that you call this man smart...he is a man with wisdom and wisdom is obtain from God therefore he will always be@ point....to be smart means you are con!!!!!!you cannot get intellegency in the word on your left hand,lets stepup to the word WISDOM its fron GOD.
I've learned so much from this man, God bless him when people like him speak you just listen and take it in, he is bless with a brilliant mind.
What this guy is saying, make a whole lot of sense to me. When we have our people with knowledge that can be shared that is wonderful.
💝
Solid interview Mr. Lennox Lampkin. The "monetization" of the ash really needs to be looked into before it is "gone with the wind" and the rain. All the best to the farmers in these times. We will bounce back - let it be wiser.
Great guy
This was an excellent interview.👏🏾👏🏾 This man makes me proud to be a Vincy. His knowledge is precious and should be shared with current and future farmers.
I am from St Vincent but live in Trinidad this man is good of what he doing blessings to St Vincent.
I like when people go overseas then come back to their countries with knowledge and expertise for their country. He's a wise man !
This is knowledge to be shared
This Vincy man is at the top of his game farmer by choice Lennox is highly intelligent..we need his ideas
Indeed
Your interview was very informàtive and well put together.Keep up the good work by sharing your knowledge to farmers . and the public. God's blessing on you.
It's such a delight to see these two thought leaders in conversation. You may be way ahead in your thinking and practice...but the ideas you are sharing will benefit the generations that follow you in great measure. You are exemplars. Keep moving forward!!
...this man is BRILLIANT--my sentiments exactly! Thank you for sharing:o) Cheers from Europe!
Total admiration for this gentleman and his innovative skills; I wish him well in the future and sincerely hope that the volcano would soon comply with the desires and wishes of all Vincentians who have been drastically dislocated as a consequence of this eruption. I can empathize with him in the way he feels about the government's handling of the situation but truth be told, the government was primarily concerned with the safety of the people and yes, they may have over-reacted in some ways but at the end of the day, if they had not instituted certain measures and people had died as a result, everyone in the Caribbean and the international community also would have been critical of them.
It is obvious that this farmer is quite knowledgeable. He has given a very comprehensive report on how to manage agriculture even in catastrophic times. A lesson in survival, and hope.
I am visiting him to get some guava next time. He is a very proactive hardworking intelligent citizen.All the best to your sir I hope you attain great success with your farming.
I hope St Vincent has a dozen of this invaluable, knowledgeable and brilliant farmer to encourage and support other farmers, the populace as a whole. So, the volcano could be a blessing. I was not surprised when this farmer detailed the many resources could be generated from the volcanic ashes. When I saw ashes on the ground I was wondering in what ways it could benefit us. Suddenly, he named them.🇯🇲👍🏽❤️ I just love to hear the interactions between these men.
God bless this wonderful intelligent man. I wish I could help him. My prayers are for his success and happiness. The world needs many more people just like him. Peace and good fortune and good health to you all. ❤
Thank you for this great interview.
I love this man, I have never met him personally but as a gardener myself who tries to garden as natural as possible he is the only person in St. Vincent that inspires me as far as organic farming is concerned... #onelove
Educational interview! We can all learn from Mr Lampkin! Bravo!
A very knowledgeable man. I was fascinated by what he had to say. I was also moved because I saw the sadness in his eyes. I wish him the best, and I hope that he gets some sort of financial assistance. My heart goes out to him, and the people of my beloved homeland St.Vincent 🙏🏾
What an AWESOME man giving hope when all around is grey in the midst of chaos he is the calm showing life is still abounding praise God He continues to bless and sustain in Jesus name
Thank you Mr. Lampkin for the wisdom you have imparted. I didn't understand why my avocado is not bearing as much and to be honest I am not seeing much pollinators in my area. I will be planting zinnias etc. Also after the first ash fall I looked at my trees and thought I should have pruned prior to the eruption as well this is indeed useful information to be passed on for generations to come.
True Leader Motivator Clever Articulate [ROSE HALL] man.....RESPECT.🇻🇨🇻🇨🇻🇨

We e
This farmer is Very smart and intelligent I pray that God protect St Vincent 🙏🙏
Great wealth of knowledge. Thanks my brother!
In total agreement with his philosophy. Not waiting on politicians for hand-outs is a very good thing. If we all strive to be self-sufficient in some way, it will eventually reduce the power and over reliance on the politicians!!!!!
Love this, great documentary. Volcano is the mother of the land. Health Education Agriculture Tourism H.E.A.T. Smart man.
Excellent learning interview and information...continue the great work IWN
What a brilliant and positive minded person.
Very good interview, super informative and extremely useful in the way of looking forward and making the most out of this situation.
Great interview, very informative with a competent, wise & practical gentleman. 🙏🏾
I'm impressed. Thanks for the motivation Sir
Thank you for that interview.
To God be the Glory for protecting the people of ST.VINCENT and the Grenadines and our neighbours thanking Him for protecting all the life of the people I pray that He will continue to watch over the Country for His mercies sake

Can learn from this gentleman how to integrate and benefit from the linkages in the above sectors. It is unfortunate, that Caribbean decision makers continue to over look their well trained citizens with expertise in various fields ,that could help develop their countries.Rather they look to paying unnecessary expensive consultancy fees ,for foreign entities to come and tell them what their local expertise already know.We did the same thing in Cricket and now lament the loss of that indigenous knowledge.
True talk, them leaders evil an corrupt
This man is what REAL GOOD SENSE is all about...
Very informative. I would like to hear from you a month or so again
These the type of people that WILL be in THE NEW KINGDOM to come! GLORY TO THE MOST HIGH🙏🏾
If you don't repent you can't inherit the ,or that KINGDOM TO COME .good work can't get you or anyone in heaven
@@soniajohn8160 Repent & Except Christ.! 🙏🏾
Maybe Mr Lampkin can organize eco-tourism to his farm in the future. There is a lot of people want to acquire some hands-on experience in farming or want to help out the locals in a sustainable way. Eating from the land and getting some education, and have a dip in the sea every once and a while. #youaredoingwell
Where will you live while there , he’s not into. B&Bs or hotel camping sites , that’s too much to take on, too many people and avenues to go down, Lennard is a hands on man, with a very busy daily life, yet wonderful, strangers would just cause issues along the line, as humans do. You could perhaps, open up a hotel and invite Lennard to seminars, and (the people who come to learn from Lenard could stay in your flats, apartments or shacks or hotel, house, cafes restaurants , whatever you decide to setup)to talk about his way of living on and Off Nature, then he can get on with his life, without the bother of dealing with the needs of the tourist/holidaymaker workers.
@@cosmopolitanwonder9675 what you do not know about these eco tourists, that they are mostly self sustainable, they do not arrive in droves and care about their eco-footprint. Given that Mr Lampkin lived in Europe he would be familiar with this concept. For every challenge there are solutions, if you can readjust your angle.
I am thankful for your respect for the land
This man should be prime minister.
Very knowledgeable and ambitious gentleman.😊👍👊
Quite impressed by this man common sense and knowledge! Unfortunately most of the younger generation doesn’t see farming as an attractive avenue for earning a living. Farmers feed the nation and are often overlooked for their invaluable contribution to nation building until there’s a crisis of this magnitude. I hope he advises the government in some capacity. His knowledge is too much to simply be kept to himself. Maybe he should offer himself for national office..
Lennox well done. Keeping everyone posted on what's going on in SVG
I love this guy. Good for you. Great mind. Peace.
I love this guy - got involvd in technology years ago, but came back to the land & growing fruits.= this is the way to be happy, I hope his little farm is able to survive the volcano's best attempts at burying the land !!! Good luck to him !
The day I move back to SVG to live I am looking for this guy to get some of his knowledge 👏🙌🙌
My brother on ce you have faith in God and a good heart pleasing to God he will give you double for your trouble
Very informative, didactic & inspirational.
suggestion: bagging that ash up and selling it for top dollar to other farmers across the world.(some of those holland connections)
as real farmers know, fresh volcanic ash can be very beneficial nutrients for plants. As a matter of fact some famers swear by it's usage.
It will take a decade or so for the land to process that ash, I would suggest setting up a sprinkler system with reverse osmosis water and flooding the farm every day for a few weeks to help the ground take it in.
prayers and blessings to all the good people who are blessed to make something out of nothing.
all praises to THE CREATOR everlasting.
Vincentians listen to this man he has a lot of wisdom
He is correct, the volcano is a part of the ecosystem and all of the islands is born of volcanoes..
mr lampkin is a highly educated man,the ash can be used for many things,as he said it contains most of the most essential nutrients for plants,and can be also be used in construction its far better than sand,it also can be used for facial cleansing and a wide rage of other things.
I am so impressed with mr Robertson and his look on
Life and the land, and mama tera
Heel goed bezig, i hope you opened the eyes of your government officials!! GBU
Good interview about food forest.
I commend the gentleman for staying and fighting we have a mud volcano in my country its south i live north i have never thought anything about it except that it had erupted some years ago im so ignorant since this eruption im quite interested im educating myself knowledge is power people perish from a lack of knowledge
Ours only erupt cuss niccas wanna be greedy on a small island
St Vincent needs more citizens like him. We are trying to live to much of a North American lifestyle in the islands that is not appropriate that is why there is so much unpreparedness
The highest that great men reach and kept god blessing as you rebuild
Bless up King.. the people shld learn and follow
i love to hear this
Thanks for your optimism always make me a body scrub
God is good I see a rebirth of Yurumein like never before. He will see you through Mr. Lampkin
Government needs to hear him!
A real renaissance man💪🙏
Can make bricks... my thoughts too. Everyone needs to collect seeds and plants and not wait on the government.
Love to this brother
Very knowledgeable man
I would like to visit this man's farm I'm sure I will learn a lot from him being off the grid
Thank God he went back home to help with the economy.
Bravo!!!
Wise man! He gives me so many ideas and now I can’t stop thinking of how to make them come true. Anyone who can give some tips on where to find farmland in St. Vincent on internet? And if anyone has some tips on the best FB group for St.Vincent?
That was great information my Rosehall people
Very intelligent person
When a volcano erupt many Heroes are in every Communities
God Bless you sir!!!
Smart and articulate man
Truthfully inspiring...
Well said!!!
This is how at, Vincent will prosper ,those with skills to go home and train the youths and help build the wealth of our country .
We look for professionalism in public videos, too much repetition that shows a lack of structure. Pruning trees is a general process of tree care so it won't be an issue if ash didn't fall. I look for us to use the ash wisely as a free product. our manner is too often, as the Prime Minister says, a complaining industry... The water system is shut down to protect it so ash doesn't get in and plug things. Let us check what we say and be real, positive and productive. God bless.
its true!!
the ash is going fertilize our soil and enrich it even more!
Nature knows exactly what its doing!
Salute to Lennox Lampkin for PROACTIVE thinking!
We in the Caribbean can never see the value of the resources around us. We would go and cheaply sell or give away that Ash to international people, then buy back the same product from them at a high price. Consumer mind set. The Lord sent us a gift although in a tragic . We need to capitalise on all events.
This guy is a genius
This manis taking svg in a right direction. Soil conservation is.key
So true. There are vital minerals.
Lord have mercy upon St Vincent in Jesus name
He worked so hard on his far Chin up bro start again
What is ICT?
Maybe this time they will listen to u sharing your knowledge
Hey Uncle Lennox...this is Jim's daughter..how are you..stay safe
Get hold of an electric leaf blower to keep the fruit trees clear of dust.
I agree in regards to the ashes be made into products like cement which can be exported thus bringing in some money into the country.
A lot of sense.
He's right
Invest in solar generators if you are able these days everything is solar and with that beautiful sun(son) you can't go wrong👍🏾
You grow onions there?
Was there not enough accurate warning...?
I did ICT as well but i like farming also
Keep your head up Lennox lampkin chateau
Love this
Its true some people dont want to work they will tell you they are coming and dont show up
I like the way this guy thinks. What if you blow the ash away from some of the trees? Just a thought.
