Can't imagine why on Earth anyone would click dislike on this guy's videos. He's providing great information in a concise and entertaining way - for free.
Its really the craziest thing that you uploaded this! I got an internship with my local environmental protection agency and this week there was a conference on what we wanted to do for Earth day and I came up with an idea like this, to start a garden in an elementary school yard. Now I have this video to help us make this garden happen! Thank You John!
Thanks for your videos. I look forward to them, there is so much to learn about gardening. It's great that we have an online community to share these things. Thanks again.
I understand that people would like widescreen, a better mic and HD. Please understand, I do this as a hobby. I am not paid to produce or make these videos. Which does take my own time and sometimes money. I do this for fun. I would be glad to start shooting in widescreen, HD & get an external mic, but then would charge a monthly subscription. I feel its far better to provide FREE content (even if non-hd) to reach a larger audiece at no cost to my viewers instead.
John, I just wanted to say that I enjoy each of your videos that you make and share with everyone. I appreciate all you do. I look forward to each and every video you post.
Hey John-this is a wonderful video. I have an outdoor classroom garden for my Pre-K class and they love working in the garden as well as eating from the garden. I firmly beleive that every school should have a garden. Gardening really can start as young as 2 years old. I have been gardening with children for years and they love the whole process of it. They even go home and tell their parents about it and they intern start a small garden at home. Love your work. Keep it up.
I like that your Videos have a "raw" homemade feel. It helps make you seem like a regular Joe (John) and that your philosophies are attainable for regular (non youtube famous) people. Keep up the great work!
I volunteer at the 2nd Edible Schoolyard at the Greensboro Children's Museum in Greensboro, NC. It's so true that volunteering is not a chore if it's something you love. Most of our visitors are the toddler to 8 year old range and their attention span can really be a challenge (they love the chickens and rabbits), but the field trip kids (9-12) love harvesting from the garden and being creative in the ESY kitchen.
Great video John, and great initiative by the school. Like you, I wish my school had 'agriculture studies' when I was growing up! Obviously the school has space for a comprehensive program, but you don't need as much as an acre to get started - even a school green house is better than nothing, and would really help restore the connection of where food originates.
Last night I was watching Netflix. I found a documentary on Organic Food at a school in France. It was very informative how they have so much pollution and pesticides going on their local farms. A French Mayor decided to change that in his school in his town. It was really a neat show. However, you have to read the English subscripts.
Hey John! Thanks for being such an inspiration. I would love to donate toward what you are doing. Also thanks to your mysterious camera person without whom there would be no show. Keep up the fantastic work!
It was called Food Beware: The French Organic Revolution. Jean-Paul Jaud's documentary visits a village in France where the mayor has mandated an all-organic menu for the lunch program in the local school. Watch it John. It's really something America needs to do.
@growingyourgreens I love your logic...getting this message spread as far as possible is an awesome way to make an impact... have you thought about having a site too that links to the information you discuss? If you want help let me know...I'd love to help, maybe in a blog/directory format.
@growingyourgreens Hi john i also met with those comments where people wanted you to start using HD camera, which of course would be a perfect think especially for those episodes where you show for example very small seeds or for better experiences in your funny and exciting videos.
@KralZltko I totally agree @growingyourgreens could post the videos on a wordpress site or something as they are posted and then also have a paypal link on there as well as links to referenced places/resources.
Its as easy as doing an internet search that finds information relating obesity to fast foods. 100 years ago was there the level of obesity there is today? Do traditional cultures that eat REAL food have the levels of obesity we have ? What changed? The food. I'm not a "scientist" & strive to "be politically correct" whenever possible.. If I made direct statements like "McDonalds causes obesity" I may get sued. But you can be sued for opinions, its our 1st ammendment right.
Love your videos....It would seem that PBS has picked up on this story and I just watched a show on this same school.....but we heard it from you first!!!
Love your videos John!!! Once we are on our property we would love for you to come to visit us at OneCommunityRanch ( a .org). We will be growing, building and sharing everything we do freely with the world. Your videos are greatly appreciated and inspiring Thank you!!!!!
@growingyourgreens I hope you are monetizing your videos, so then it may simply pay for itself. (: Your videos are quite fascinating, I must admit. It would just be icing on the cake, perhaps. (:
@InfamousWolf1 Different strokes for different folks. I'm a 28 year old man. I work as an automotive technician. It annoys me when older men come in, and say "you're a good kid, or I think that kid did a good job on my car." I'd prefer to be called a "young man". I know they don't mean any offense by this, but sometimes I want the respect of an adult.
@Skeletor4ever haha i know i know, i guess i have it worse being 18 xD, but there will always be someone older than u and to them u r always a kid. I have come to find even ppl the same age as me still call me, and others of the same age, a kid, but when it all comes down to it, its whatever ppl prefer lol
@growingyourgreens I would recommended you to try "paypall donate" maybe there are some people that would likely to help you with this interesting project ( including me :)). Maybe with only couple of bugs from individuals (1-5 dollars) but still something is better than nothing and you are quite famous so i suppose there is plenty of people that would like to help you and together we maybe donate you enought that wou will be able to obtain some hight quality HD camera :). Just try it

Thats awesome they're doing that and teaching about gardening.
Man, that junior high is cool, wish I would've gone to a school like that.

John your the BESTEST! :)
this would be cool for you to mention again when it is in full bloom and produce if you can. ;)
Hey John I really enjoy your channel....keep doing it your way
We should have a Department of Urban Agriculture in the U.S. I nominate John to head it up.
@GospelTruth37059 Well said, particularly our youth need this type of learning instead of watching nonsense on TV and playing video games
I WISH I WAS ENROLLED THERE!
Great video!

@IllumTheMessage I second the nomination!!!
@amusingisthedawn Touché.
How does one harvest the worm castings from the worm bin?
Love your videos....It would seem that PBS has picked up on this story and I just watched a show on this same school.....but we heard it from you first!!!
Hey John Do You always ask Permission from the Schools Stores and Other Places like that?
If you google school Edible Gardens Punjab। We as re running a similar programme in Punjab, India।
People need to see more things like this and less violnece on the news , and maybe our society would change :)

WHY ARE PEOPLE TALKING ABOUT HD CAMERA RECORDING !?
Are you totally missing the message - come on people.
@JahrunChilamBalam i understand wher eu are coming from, but calling someone a child, children, or a kid is saying that they are young human beings
